A friend sent me someone's Instagram profile, Ruben. He’s 24 years old, extremely fit, has single-digit body fat per cent year-round, lives the perfect lifestyle to look like this, oh and he is literally a model.
But then he got the news that he had lymphoma cancer... so my friend told me that Ruben wants to get back to where he was and he wants to document his entire journey back to fit to share his story and maybe inspire others.
So today we’re meeting him for the first time, but not in the most obvious place you would expect

Tell him Good Luck and Cancer can't defeat the human spirit!
he already beat cancer at the end of the video, your comment literally sounds like you thought he still has it..
@@soisaus564what, cant you react in the beginning of a vid?
Bro still looked better than most of the average people after all those chemo sessions, very inspirational, I wish him only the best
Chemo is meant to kill ppl and kill everything in there body and that’s a known fact that’s wht it’s thousands of dollars
this guy is the definition of determination. honestly tho, even after cancer the guy looks strong, props to him
Cancer never stood a chance.
What an inspirational man. I lost my younger bro back in 2019 to cancer he was 39 so this resonates with me. God Bless Man.
Sorry for your loss mehn❤️
@@OGTennyson thank you. He is at peace now.
Sorry for it, but ill tel you something keep going you will see something.
@@venunix yes what doesn't kill you makes you stronger.

I had Cancer too and it started when I was 3 years old I got blood Cancer and stayed in the hospital for 1 year and then 6 years later when I was 9 my Cancer relapsed and our only option was to travel to Toronto for the treatment that I needed because now I had blood Cancer and bone Cancer when it was over a few weeks later I had complications with the recovery stage with what’s known as GVHD also known as Graft-versus-host disease, and we got put in the hospital again and I couldn’t move because all of my muscles had weakened but now that I’m 10 I’ve had a great recovery and I’m back to doing some of my normal life activities 😊❤ so if you are struggling with something you will always get through it 😊❤
Who asked
Thanks for sharing your story and good luck on your recovery. You write well for only being 10 years old
Thats awesome
@@LukaWyd
You
@@LukaWyd no way ur this careless 💀
I cried when he was clean... I hope i can say the same some day... At the beginning of february this year i got diagnosed with colon cancer and 2 weeks later they told me there are also spots on my liver and in my lungs... As a 48 year old healthy living human being, this hits hard! All what has been shown and said by Ruben, i can feel and relate to. Because the tumor is pressing into my colon, going to the toilet became near impossible, si i now also have a stoma which sucks, but there is no way but keep going. I went to the gym again yesterday after more than 2 weeks and everything felt so heavy... But i won't give up!!!
Good luck Ruben and thanx for sharing your story, it helps alot.
All the best, man on your journey of healing. May the force be with you. Loads of love to you. Hope you come out "clean" too pretty soon and completely 👍😊✨🌻
@@troisashu thank you so much ❤
I hope you will be fine soon 💪
@@BG-zl4dg thanx alot 👍
That's so inspiring! So much respect for this guy
yeah
hi smoothie guy
Video hits home for me. My boyfriend was just like you, mid 20s, doing workouts, keeping healthy... then almost 2 years ago he started feeling weaker, they couldnt figure out why. 10months ago he was diagnosed with Motor Neuron Disease/ALS, and now all of his muscles are barely functional. Theres an extraordinarily minimal chance of improvement, but he still cares about other people and how they feel, still trying to smile and give love, even though he can barely stand for a few seconds. Showing him this video and both hoping you stay recovering and in remission. Never give up!
As someone familiar with this in their family and a fear of it myself. Nothing but love to you and your boyfriend. My hope is we will have a cure soon. We will cure ALS.
I encountered the disease in a Japanese series. I've definitely heard about it before, but most people pass by things that don't concern them.
Unfortunately, it's a pretty nasty disease. The person gradually loses the things they could do with ease before. The everyday trifles that we don't even pay attention to. Only if we are no longer capable of them.
So we relatively healthy people should be happy that we are well and be grateful for the things that surround us. But patients should not give up hope either! Any day now, a new drug could come out that could make a big difference. I just often have the feeling that companies and big people sit on them. And they will only let people know when they can gain a lot from it financially. I wish the best!
One of the strongest guys I’ve ever seen… Massive respect to his family and girlfriend
I was also diagnosed with cancer, more specifically with T-cell Acute Lymphoblastic Leukemia, it’s a childhood blood cancer that usually is contracted from 2-8 but I was diagnosed when I was 16, December of 2022. It was a ROUGH battle, I was a bulky teen, I had just hit some amazing PRs for my age, I was 190, playing football, wrestling, everything a highschool guy can dream of, and my whole world was turned upside down in a matter of seconds. I went all the way down to 125 lbs, barely able to walk, wanted to sleep all day, and the doctors wouldn’t even let me go to the gym either (which is understandable). But I’ve been on this journey, grinding it out, I’m in remission now and doing my maintenance phase portion, I shot back up to 180, I have an amazing girlfriend, I even got to play 4 games of football for my team and got to wrestle the whole season. You got this dude, trust the process, the weight, size, and strength will all come back in due time, beat cancers butt!
Even after 4 chemo sessions he still looks amazing, and the fact that he was going to the gym regularly during his sessions is insane. No doubt he will smash his goals and come back stronger than ever. Mad respect 🔥💪❤️
The part where he revealed he was cancer free made me smile really wide. I also donated €10. I lost too many people in my life to cancer. I once ran collections to raise for cancer but had to stop due to school. I cant wait to see how his journey will go! Congratulations to him for getting cancer free!
Nobody sees serious illness coming, but it is particularly difficult when it hits at a young age when you are totally fit and feel indestructible. Ruben is so very positive, and his time spent with Browney - the Positivity King - should certainly give him a boost going forward.
Browney is literally one of my most favorite RUclipsrs. He is so inspiring no cap!
this video got me crying, my grandma died due to cancer and seeing someone beat cancer is so inspiring.
Good Job Ruben 😊 Hope the next part of your journey goes as you intend it.
Much Love
bro can still do basically my reps even after chemo, respect.
He is still stronger After chemo therapy than many other people
Stronger than me , no cap. Dude is relentless.
I'm not crying, you're crying! So excited for Reuben and his journey back to strength and loving his body again.
I am sad thinking how many people ,kids ,close one get cancer everyday its sad😢
@@Oobservatory_X its bcoz people dont die from other diseases anymore, many have been treated so cancer having a bigger effect is a downside of that i guess
@@yazi6947 yes that is the reason of increase in cancer cases as humans now live long enough to make their cells so weak that they mutate transferring cancer to next generation if they mate
I had lymphoma cancer, i treated it 1 and a half year ago, and i never let my self down on treatment, glad he got better!
God bless that man. What a guy 🙏🙏🙏
Wow, I had the same kind of cancer just a few years ago, and must say that this man is so brave for documenting his lowest moments (and still making effort to work out) despite all the uncertainties and fears! Really respect you Ruben! So happy for you too! You have a great support system :))
This video touched my heart. Pray for anyone who is dealing with cancer. God bless you🙏🏽❤️
Nederlandse huisartsen, echt waar. Het is altijd: “wacht maar, neem een paracetamolletje, het gaat vanzelf over”. Als je dat een aantal keer gehoord hebt, dan ga je op een gegeven moment gewoon niet meer naar de huisarts als je klachten hebt. En zelfs als je dan gaat, krijg je weer hetzelfde te horen. Ze hadden mijn MS diagnose jaren eerder kunnen vaststellen als ze mij gewoon serieus hadden genomen.
Ben blij voor je Ruben! Ik wens je veel succes en gezondheid!❤
Ruben, your vulnerability and drive have us all rooting for you. I just donated and hope you stay healthy and happy for a long time. And in case you still need to hear this: you're not small, you're as big as they make 'em! ❤
This gave me goosebumps. So much respect for him and family. Now can’t wait for Rubens transformation 💪🏻
This guy is awesome, I wish him and his family/friends nothing but the best. I couldn't even imagine still working out while undergoing treatment.
Can't wait to see the results
Hats off to him. Amazing attitude, with that positivity. He could almost achieve anything and also it’s a blessing to have a partner like he has !
This hits home for me as cancer runs in my family. Watching this I’m driven with inspiration and have now overcome my fear of the future. Keep going Ruben 💪💪
Tears rolled out of my eyes watching the end of the video! More & more power to you! Rooting for you! God bless ❤🫡🙌🦋
You’re a great guy Ruben, you are going to nail it! Sadly I have gotten the same news 2 months ago and I had my first treatment 1.5 weeks ago. Super nice to see your perspective, helps a lot 🙏🏻
Bro's stronger than the upper limit of being strong❤
that smile is golden. So happy for you man!!!
This is one of your best videos ever! And so much respect for Ruben! He's so inspiring and motivating.
He seems like such a nice guy, so glad he's on the road to recovery
Not gonna lie this is probably one of my favourite video not only on your channel but on entire RUclips i have ever watched. Also this guy's positivity is something which everyone needs.
Gosh man, I was so happy for him. Continue strong, G!
He had me in tears he seems so happy and was in great shape and he will come out better and stronger than ever ❤❤❤
Mad respect to Ruben for staying strong. Watching the physique you've spent years building disappear is so hard on your mental health. I was diagnosed with a rare autoimmune disease called vasulitis and I was given chemo and oral steroids as treatment which caused a lot of muscle wastage. It sucked but when I got back in the gym it was like I had newbie gains all over again. A year later and I'm in the best shape of my life. Cant wait to see Ruben get back his gains as well.
I have a lot of respect for this guy. I mean filming is already hard, but when you have cancer and no energy is extra hard
Browney is absolute inspiration when it comes to persevering through failures and never givin' up! Thanks to your videos I've even started filming home workouts and even if it's not the best yet I'm trying really hard to be better every day!. It might be kinda bad , but I absolutely love what I'm doing, and I know that one day I'll become a fitness influencer too. I believe it with all my heart!
Wow this guy is incredible!! I have so much respect for his grit, perseverance and attitude!! What a legend!!
Cancer sucks you got this bro you still have a better physique than many people 👍
This is like what happened to me. I found out I had cancer after finding an enlarged lymph node in my neck. It's been almost 5 years now and I'm still battling and working out when I can.
Keep fighting! Did you have any other symptoms besides the enlarged lymph node?
@@jepie30 My arms and legs were getting really achy, Like I was working them out. At one point I couldn't even walk up the stairs.
I am so happy for him!!! The work he did is really inspiring me!
thanks for spreading cancer awareness, lots of respect 👍
What an inspiration. Kept a positive attitude through the whole journey, I have such admiration for you Ruben. And i'm so glad you have your beautiful girlfriend by your side what a power couple. All the best in your healing.
This man is coming back stronger after 30days. Muscle memory finna kick in😤
big fing respect man and also the positive news that he is clean bro cant wait to see him grind and get back those gains 💪🫡
Leukemia Cancer survivor “ALL” , 14 years since my bone marrow transplant. I had 2 months to live at one point. I now have two little girls and a beautiful wife. My motto was always; laugh and joke often…. and never lose hope(+) positive positive positive thoughts (+) Thanks for sharing your journey.
Been waiting for this one 🔥
It was emotional for me to watch it because my best friend recently died from cancer at just 17 years. Just wanted to share it here to make me fell better
I am glad you are okay hope everything will be good for other cancer victims. We will be with you in this journey!!
Litterally the first time I’ve cried in a very long time. Great to see his recovery! It really got to me because my mom actually got the same type of cancer recently and is on her recovery journey right now. Really enjoying the series. I wish Ruben all the best, and I will be following the series!
The reason why most people go to the gym is because of health benefits (like myself). To see the story of Ruben and knowing that even with hard work and dedication to a healthy lifestyle, your body is not invulnerable. I'm truly thankful that I can watch this. Ruben, I wish you the best of luck for the upcoming period. You already deserve so much respect! The determination and discipline is insane. You can do it! 💪🔥
It's cause its not healthy to work out a lot in the gym, you overly stress your body every time. Long living (healthy) people chill out a lot and stay in or near nature.
Respect to this inspirational strong young man and to his girlfriend. If I were him, I'd marry this beautiful loyal lady right away. She is gold! You can rarely find loyal people like her nowadays. Respect ❤️
This really inspired me. I have been feeling down lately, as I have ACL surgery in a few days (soccer injury), which is going to keep me from hitting legs in the gym for months. I'm a 17 y/o gymrat. However, seeing him battle cancer with a smile has put things into perspective for me and motivated me to keep smiling. Keep spreading love!
Thank you so much for this video. I am so glad your friend is now getting better. This made me cry so much. So inspiring, and I just hope he continues to go from strength to strength. Thank you for sharing this as it is so inspiring.
Bro browney is always doing good things. Can we give a clap in the comments👏
4:58 is that your best body part?
GF: No...
🤣🤣
You are stronger than you think. Keep moving forward with confidence. Sending you a hug and hope from here !
That was so emotionally wonderful! I love to see him reach his goals again! Quality Content I came here years ago
Lets praise Lord that we are healthy.❤
I can feel the pain because I went through same. Got cancer when I was 8 years old. Now, I'm 18, so basically, I wasted 4 years of my life through pain. God helped me throughout my 4 years of pain. Without him, I wouldn't be here right now. Every time I thank God that I survived cancer. 🙏
Wat een baas. Respect voor deze man. God bless ❤
This is why you shouldn’t be down on cancer ❤
bruh the video was uploaded 5 minutes ago and it 15 minute long and you already putted a comment

What positivity! One can draw very much inspiration from him.
Cancer really sucks but cannot break the spirit.
Huge respect for him 📈🫡
This was one of the most incredible and difficult videos I've ever watched. I felt on the verge of tears for 95% of it and when he got the news I was GONE. Very inspiring.
that’s a fucked up april fools joke
I will do 1 push-up for every like
11 push ups in a video and you can blur it if you want to
You got this bro
23 push ups
Been watching you since 2015, my heart hurts for Ruben. I hope he defeats it! Rooting for Ruben all the way from California. Loyalty is everything, beautiful blessing to have a supportive girlfriend like that.
His positive attitude is infectious, go Ruben 🎉
I’ll do a like for every push-up this comment gets
For every like this comment gets I will do 4 pushups for the guy with cancer 24 hours only 😭
Sending blessings to this beautiful man he should keep going
Videos like this make me feel grateful for my health, wish him a fast recovery.
First viewer
…I can’t tell if this is an April fools thing or not
How so
I have so much respect for this man. Not just to be fighting his way back from cancer, but also the honesty he poured into this video and his decision to go and post about this not try to hide. Mad respect you could feel the emotion. I hope he a great comeback and gets back to how he wants.
Letsss Gooo I’m So Happy For Him and His Family ! God Bless Him and His Family! May God Give Him Strength and Protect Him 🙏🏼❤️
Praying for you Ruben and cheering you on! So encouraged by your positive attitude. My dad died of cancer when I was younger. I know it’s hard, but never quit!
Thank you for making this video bro, I too went through exactly this and just got cancer free 3months back and i’m personally touched to see content creators are genuinely helping people going through this not feel alone ❤
what a legend
wow. this video is just so wholesome. never give up and have a circle that makes you happy and better
Just cried for 15 minutes. Congratulations on the good test results and I can't wait for the day 30 video!!
This is so inpiring. Even after all the hardships he perseveered and kept going. Bro is a beast and i admire that 100%. Great video
This proves mindset is everything, may good bless you with health❤
Came from snapchat. This is extremely motivating. I was diagnosed with Lupus and Rheumatoid Arthritis in 2017 when I graduated high-school. It's been a roaster ride for sure. It got so bad that I had to be on dialysis for almost 3 years (from nov 2021- Feb 2024). Recently had a kidney transplant on February 23 😁❤ and been slow recovering everyday. Right now I'm trying to get my weight back( I'm currently 128lbs trying to get to at least 150lbs) and go back to normal activities like exercising and working!! Slow motion is better than no motion right now. I'm here for this journey as well as my own. Much love ❤
Much respect with how positive he is given the situation.
Beautiful bro, you're amazing, and a huge inspiration, hope everything goes well and I do really look forward to see your progress. ❤❤❤
Excited to see this guys progress, you guys are about to do what you do best.
This video made me so emotional from beginning to end! Thank you for sharing your story with us, a strong message you have shared with all of us that with the right fighter attitude you can conquer all! God bless you always and may you continue to have great health!
Lets get it Ruben! You've got this transformation in the bag, hope it goes well for bro! God bless this king
