Met him once at a club, shared a conversation about trance and music festivals. never mentioned that he was zyzz. Humble and polite af. Mates showed me videos. I was shocked. He definitely didn't show his zyzz persona that night. He was genuine. So heartbreaking.
That was the days before every influencer, creator or online person with a slight following thinks everyone recognises them and uses the “do you know who I am?” line to get free hotel nights or entry into clubs etc Now a floppy haired kid walks in a restaurant with three friends and expects a free meal while playing “pranks” on the other customers claiming they’re promoting the place
@UV whats wrong with using gear? he aint a freak either. Edit: Peds are definitely very bad for your health. What I meant to say was that yes, it is bad for you, but people have their reasons for certain things and it is their body and their choice to do what they want with their body as long as they are not influencing others to use steroids.
I had zyzz make a couple of appearances in my nightclub back in the day and he was the nicest and most humble person. He was a gentleman and extremely respectful to all his my club patrons. He spent time with everyone that wanted his time. I was incredibly impressed. Out of all the international djs and celebrities I've worked with during those yrs zyzz would probably be my favourite collaboration. God bless his soul
As strange as it sounds it’s probably because he was bullied for being small and was intelligent so he knew how to be humble. The Internet personalities that are the worst are the spoilt ones that never had confrontation growing up like Jack Docherty, Jake Paul, Tanner Cook etc
It's so crazy that back then he was embarrassed for people to know he was a Game Nerd, if you only knew how the world is now with all of these gamers and social media. R.i.p legend
Imagine if he was still alive now in the social media era. He was so ahead of his time it’s fuckin insane. Forever mirin’ brah, we’re all gonna make it!
ZYZZ was the original OG Instagram influencer except he actually wants to have positive effect on others to be more confident & grow as a person! Legend!
"There's a little Zyyz in all of us" and "we're all gonna make it brah" are enough anyone needs to hear and see to head to the gym. R.i.p Zyyz. A true role model.
I remember 10 years ago when I was 15, I saw the video "The Legacy" of Zyzz and I got up and went to the gym and I never stopped. It motivated me so much and I cannot thank him enough, even though he's not here physically with us, he'll always live through us. Forever mirin'
Hey there! 💪 Your comment hit close to home for me too. Zyzz's "The Legacy" had the same profound impact on my life. It's incredible how he continues to inspire us, even though he's not here in person. The gym became my second home, and the motivation he instilled is something I carry with me every day. Together, we keep his legacy alive. Forever mirin' and forever grateful for the inspiration he shared. Keep pushing, my friend! 🌟💙
“Don’t ever pay people out or put people down. Instead just put yourself up and let the haters do their thing. Id rather be a person that’s hated on, than a person that does the hating. A wise man once said… Haters gonna hate!” - Zyzz
This man's videos told me to change and never give up in my time I thought I couldn't do it and just settle as is so I wont get hurt no more. Bless this man wherever he is now.
thank you ZYZZ for trying to make the world just a little better for every single one of us, you will never be forgotten "NEVER JUDGE A BOOK BY ITS COVER"
Never knew anything about Zyzz until now. Interesting and heartfelt story! Seems like he impacted a lot of people, and I really admire the heart of such a positive force. I just started going to the gym more seriously, and it really does change you physically. But at our heart, we are often the same.
Great editing, I felt the emotion you wanted to convey in the video. Great music and transitions. I’m very inspired. Keep making videos, I am inspired by you. I just found your channel and it’s awesome! Thank you!
On the internet, a decade is equivalent to a million years. Can't believe after 10 years, he is still remembered. He is a legend after all. Rest in peace Zyzz
@@Rdizzle512 No, he didn't. He was saying a decade on the internet would be equal to a million years in the actual world. So for Zyzz to be remembered after 10 years, it would be like remembering someone in history from a million years ago.
A very smart and intelligent man, who acted superficial just to be accepted by others. By doing this, he discovered himself also, and left the best of him to the world. He was right, everybody has a Zyzz inside waiting to come out, fighting the deamons of mind. R.I.P. Zyzz
@@J0SHUAKANE What about smokers? Isn't nicotine a drug? Do they also kill themselves when they get lungh cancer or heart Attack? Should we negate them healtcare? 70% of the american population Is obeese. Do they all want to die? Isn't also food a drug? You never drunk, never smoked? Come on. Everybody does stupid things. It doesn't mean you're a stupid person. What about all the people who live long time without living for real a single day? Time Is nothing. What really matters Is the impact your life have on the planet. And Zyzz changed many people' life for the better.
@@J0SHUAKANE Damn bro. That's a harsh assessment. Zyzz suffered from anxiety issues. He probably took those drugs because it made him feel confident and less insecure. He was flawed like any one of us.
@Ok Gst XD you don’t get that big that fast.lol maybe learn about anabolic steroids sometime. Still takes hard work and dedication, but he definitely was on roids. 😂
Such a shame he died so young 🥺 I met him at a festival (might have been tiesto at Moore Park) and he was so nice, I remember him giving props to my partner at the time who'd been training "don't be a modest cnt bro" Zyzz said to him while praising his efforts 😂 RIP Zyzz you legend!
Bumped into him in the toilets at a rave (Transmission I think) in Homebush around 2007.. Didn't know who he was, he didn't know me, but his face lit up like we were good mates. Asked my name, where I was from, having a good night? do I come to these often? (I was about twice his age then). Our paths crossed a couple of times after that, and even though I knew about him online by then.. he still made the effort to come up and say hi... I was a nobody. Such a friendly, softly spoken, likable guy.
Brings back memories. I actually hired him at EB Games before he got into fitness. Shy kid at first, then really changed himself. Shame he went at such a young age. Very nice bloke!
@@hellur3474 No that's the typical Zyzz fanboy response when you tell them that their "god" was a druggie and a terrible role model and some shitty little dark age edit doesn't make him a deity.
I am young and Zyzz's influence was past my time. I have always heard stories of Zyzz, but it is amazing to know how much of an inspiration he was, and his story. He inspires me, even if I wasn't around for when the events unfolded. He is a staple to the fitness community, and it is nice to know the story of how it happened. Fly high Zyzz🕊
He may be gone but his soul is still roaming around till to this day.he inspired billions of people that went from an obese/skinny person to a masterpiece similar to him! Rest in peace.
Zyzz saved my life back in 2013. I had just lost my ex, had no job, and was morbidly obese. I started watching his vids and because of that I started reading up on nutrition and lifting. I went from 311lbs to 197 lbs in 8 months. I got healthier, smarter and started enjoying life again. I've since gained some weight back but I'm came here to look for inspiration again and I found it. Not gonna lie, this video made me cry. Never knew the guy but I felt like I truly did, I think we all feel like we knew him to some extent. Feels like we lost a friend.
Zyzz is not just a person. Zyzz is a state of mind. Zyzz is progress. Zyzz is achievement. Zyzz is success. The embodiment of what's possible, whilst still staying true to yourself. Zyzz was a nerd and a ripped bro. There's a bit of Zyzz in all of us. RIP to the real king of Sydney. RIP to the ambassador of getting ripped and being yourself. I can't believe this was like 12 years ago man. Feels like yesterday. I'm from Sydney, and I have bumped into Chestbrah a few times. Their legacies will live on forever, as long as we keep their names alive.
I’ve just discovered Zyzz, got my ass back on the weights. Suffered a shoulder injury 2 years ago and stopped working out. Now I’m back…… Thank you Zyzz. I love the saying “There is a little Zyzz in all of us”
Yo the girl that was hating on him on video was actually trolling along with Zyzz. She was a personal friend of his, and homie was in on the joke. She came back on video and provided proof, by calling his personal # to substantiate her claim. Feel bad for her cause she got destroyed on the internet ever since lol RIP Zyzz. “Get Ripped or Die Mirin”
@@basic4809 i remember the comments back then too, many ppl confirmed. Plus how would she obtain his personal cell number? back then things were not easy to get like they are today
@@kenmken He is probably one of those people who have been misinformed about Zyzz by those memes who portray him as motivating people to look down at women.
Videos of him and motivational videos of him are what made me inspired to start working out, I was slightly overweight at the beginning of the summer and I got myself doing workouts and joining sports and now I am in the best shape I have been and I am the most happy I have been, I still have work to do but I am well on my way and won’t be quitting
I started getting in the gym this year. Trained for like 2 months and quit. Saw some zyzz vods. Been training daily for 6 months now. Zyzz you are a legend forever.
I’m a girl and I found zyzz when I needed him the most in my life. He taught me that anything is possible if you believe in yourself and work hard for your goals. I went from a bulimic 43kg teen to a 50kg fit and motivated young woman. It was a long and rough journey but seeing him become who he wanted to become motivated me to keep going. Zyzz will always have a special place in my heart, we’re all gonna make it brahs 💪🏻🥰
Zyzz changed my life in the last 6 months. I always knew about him a bit. But I really got inspired and influenced by him lately. Every day at the gym Im reminded and inspired by him. Hardstyle remixs with Zyzz speeches in them pump me up. Every set I'm struggling with I just know he would be supporting all of us to keep going. And I always chuck the zyzz pose with every tiny bit of progress. Zyzz was a wonderful human being. And there's a little bit of Zyzz in all of us. If Chest Brah ever sees this, everyone loves you bro, you inspire me every day too
I was watching a video on embracing masculinity and there was several clips of him. He was a big motivation for me to start going to the gym more and working on my confidence/mental health. I’ve only been going for about three months but I’ve seen a major difference in my ascetics and strings but more importantly my confidence.
Bruce Lee once said "The key to immortality is living a life worth remembering". Zyzz will live on forever through those of us he inspired, those we ourselves inspire, and those that we inspire will do so in their lives. Thank you Zyzz for being a light to us all as you suffered in your own darkness.
I am here again after 1 year . Gained 14 pound of pure muscle and I remember that while I started doing gym , I got this video which introduced me to Zyzz . We all gonna make it brah.
It’s insane how much legacy this kid has left behind they say a man dies twice, when he’s actually dies and when his name is never mentioned anymore. Zyzz is very much alive in our hearts
His soul's mission was clear from the start: he needed to be an icon. And icons need to die in order to be remembered. He will ALWAYS be that young, charismatic and extremely fit character in our minds. He will never stop inspiring!
im not even into bodybuilding or am i going to the gym but i can just feel the influence aziz had and still has maybe gonna pick up some weights soon LONG LIVE AZIZ
He got me threw one of the darkest times in my life. By embracing his philosophy of being ripped cut and a sick cont when you're down and and you're the most broken emotionally just pour it all in your training and use the pain in your heart to blow away the dark emotions like storm clouds until you burn them away in The Sun shines again as your newfound ripped physique meets with your new revitalize confidence and sense of self and purpose and direction. It was a mindset that genuinely saved my life
his fallibility makes him a hero. He is like Greek Gods: born with great power but their issues were just as great as their power making them great sinners just as well as heroes. Zyzz is the hero we love because he embodied the problems we all have while striving to be the best we can. We are all gonna make it brah!
In the end, he was a kind gentle soul that left behind love and inspiration for so many people. Regardless of how you feel about how he lived, he still inspired generations of young people to work on themselves and while we have matured since then, he still gave us that first push.
@@daMillenialTrucker well it looks like I'm fucked. Aint no way in hell I will be able to contact them, I live in India, so sadly I guess I can't do anything from the other end of the world.
@@Fonch117 did you even watch the video, he literally inspired people to be more confident and make a better version of themselves. if you dont respect that then you might wanna self reflect. watch the end of the video again
"Everyone's got a little bit of Zyzz in them" hits hard and legit fuels me with energy and motivation. Keep grinding brahs, we're all gonna make it. RIP Zyzz.
I'm glad you get energy and motivation from him but I think you need to find a better role model. Zyzz was a troubled man who used drugs to cope for his own insecurities. He never had to grind, he just took drugs to do it, destroyed his body, and died. RIP Zyzz, may nobody else follow in your footsteps.
Its 10 Years already and People still make videos about him and talk about him, i think this is one of the biggest proofs that he is one if not the biggest asthetics/bodybuilding Legend... R.I.P Zyzz
Saw a guy doing the "zyzz pose" in the gym just yesterday here in a tier 3 city in India and I was surprised to see how far Zyzz's influence has reached. It actually put a smile on my face when I saw that jacked guy do it because it was like a "Zyzz lives on through us" moment.
@@cyd3ria135 Nobody I know knows about Zyzz either. Then again my friends aren't gym goers. I think people usually involved in powerlifting and fitness are aware of Zyzz. I'm aware of him because I started going to the gym when those memes became popular last year.
I remember Zyzz’s huge impact on the fitness industry, & both the positive & negative things people felt about him…but this is the most in-depth & respectful video I’ve ever seen about Zyzz & his legacy. Well done Josh!
@@brettjosh I didn’t realize how much I didn’t know about him, how he started out, or what direction he had shifted to pursuing towards the end. I developed a new appreciation for him after watching this. Looking forward to seeing what’s coming next!
@@FitLabb Yeah I had no idea he tried to change direction. But I was there on /b/ when Zyzz was alive and the whole community around him, and himself, seemed pretty toxic to me. My memories of him in those days aren't positive. I'm glad he tried to change.
@Erwin Lii There was a lot of powerful stuff you said there, & you’ll probably be surprised to hear that I actually agree with a good amount of it. I believe that a person’s purpose for doing anything in life matters (including pursuing a fit & healthy lifestyle), as it defines their “why” & which path they set out on. While Zyzz got his start because of a childhood where he was bullied (incredibly similar to my experience, as being badly bullied was the single biggest reason that I started working out as well), he & I took very different paths from there, as we developed a very different purposes after that point. Internet fame might be a big part of why that happened with him, but I don’t know enough to assume anything…..But that’s why I said what I did about the positives & negatives about him, & also why I was happy to learn that he had been changing his ways to want to be a much better role model, & use his influence for good in the latter part of his life. After all, It’s the purpose that guides us in what we do that ultimately comes to define us, and I also believe that people are capable of changing that about themselves along the path of their life. What you said about wanting a better body like me or Zyzz, and that nothing is effortless or comes without a cost also struck me for several reasons. On one hand, I’m well aware that Zyzz took PEDs to achieve his physique. I don’t judge people who choose to take PEDs, as whatever they do with their body is their business…..However I DO take issue with it when they are dishonest about it, especially when the main reason they present that lie is to sell products or services while pretending they achieved their physique naturally. I also don’t like how it reinforces body dysmorphia and the setting of unrealistic goals to countless people out there. I don’t know enough about Zyzz to know if he lied about his PED use, or lied to sell things, but sadly the fitness industry is FULL of people who do that, and who do actively prey on people’s desperation & insecurities as you said. In my case, please don’t judge a book by its cover, as I’ve always been the polar opposite of all that nonsense. I started working out at 14 years old, & I’m now a 42 year old married father of 2 young boys who I aim to be the best possible role model for every single day. Achieving my fitness goals did come from great consistent efforts over the last 28 years, and the main “costs” for me have been removing a future of likely poorer health, becoming more confident, having a productive outlet for when I have a bad day, and my time. I have NEVER touched a single drug of any kind my entire life, nor will I ever, and that’s something I’m incredibly proud of. So I am here to tell you that you can achieve reasonable & attainable fitness goals for yourself, & you shouldn’t let all the BS, lies, & scams out there stop you from putting in the positive & productive efforts to start following a regular exercise program that’s both appropriate, sustainable, & enjoyable for you…..because I promise that your future self will thank you for doing that! Every bit of time & effort I’ve put in the gym over all these years has been worth it, as it’s improved my life in innumerable ways, and has even been my career for the last 20 years as a fitness professional who gets to actually help people become the best, happiest, & healthiest versions of themselves every single day. And I do that with the utmost amount of integrity, because at the end of every day, I have to not only look in the mirror and like who I see, but I also have to answer to my kids to make sure they’re proud of their Dad too. Long story short, I’m with you as I actually share many of the same frustrations with the industry that you have. That’s one of the main reasons I threw my hat into the ring last year as well, by founding an online fitness coaching platform and a RUclips channel, both of which operate with the utmost of honesty & integrity. So thank you for leaving that thoughtful & important comment, and I wanted to let you know that there are actually good people in the industry who do truly care about doing things the right way & actually helping people who need & want it. And with that said, feel free to reach out anytime at all either in the comments or with a DM on Instagram, as I’m always happy to field any questions you might have, & I promise you’ll never be bothering me. Wishing you all the best Erwin! 👍
I can't imagine losing my younger bro especially after watching him succeed and grow beyond my own capability and legacy even whilst I'm still alive to live my legacy. That just goes to show the Legendary status of such a person with humility.
Just imagine if he never died. The amount of influence he would have had... how big of a RUclipsr he could have been. A world with a few weekly vlogs uploaded by Zyzz would be amazing. Although there is the argument that would he have been such a legacy and inspiration if he didnt die. RIP to the Father of Aesthetics
I get the feeling that it was his death and the combination of other things that still makes him a talked about topic today, I don’t know but I feel like if he wouldn’t of died he wouldn’t be seen as much as a legend
I discovered Zyzz today through the "reject weakness, embrace strength" videos and Im so motivated to get back into the gym with my gi or boxing gloves on now that my quarantine has ended, impressive how inspirational somebody can be even after death, we'd make him all proud so how do you say? keep 'mirin, we're all gonna make it brah
Zyzz seriously deserves a fuckin statue for real❤️ He inspired me seriously. I was diagnosed with autism at 2 1/2 years old and I was bullied my whole life and my life was just living in pain and misery! When I found the gym, Zyzz and Chestbrah were the first influencers that I looked up to and they inspired me to embrace my autism and embrace of who I am to change my lifestyle from being nervous stressed and anxious all the time to being confident and aesthetic! They made me realize that being autistic is apart of me and it’s something natural to me! Haters are gonna hate. Thank you Zyzz❤️❤️❤️
I'm 22 years old, been obese all my life... Started going to the gym and dieting about 2 months ago, already down from 242lbs to 221lbs. Zyzz's spirit makes me smile on the days I feel like giving up. He taught me that it was time to reject gluttony and embrace masculinity. Love and miss you brah! UPDATE: 05/10/2022 I really never expected this comment to get this much love, the community and culture Zyzz has created is truly unmatched. As of today I weighed in just under 210 pounds. I’m going for gold, we’re all going to make it brah! UPDATE: 06/10/2022 First of all… I appreciate each and every last one of you have commented some motivation. Love you guys more than you know! This month I’m disappointed to say I’ve only dropped about 4 pounds, making my new lowest weight 206. BUT, I’m seeing REAL results and a that’s enough for me to keep pushing! Love you guys! Zyzz would be proud of all of us! UPDATE: 07/13/2022 This weight loss shit is getting hard. However, I'm pleased to announce I have finally made it under 200 (current weight: 198.6) I've reached a point in my journey where I've had to change things up to get results. I've began experimenting with prolonged fasting and only drinking a salt water mixture to get me through. This has been the first time in my life I've completed a 72 hour fast (last week). The gym was brutal hahaha. I'm still making solid gains, really grateful for how much I've slimmed down and put on muscle. My focus is getting sharper, confidence is increasing, and life is truly getting better. To everyone who's commented so far, I love you... This comment section is the only group I actually talk to about my progress lol. Until next time brah! We're all gonna make it! UPDATE: 09/10/2022 Sorry I missed last months update! However... I'm absolutely crushing it! This has honestly turned into the best year of my life. I weighed in this morning at 185.2 and I'm truly so stoked on how my body is looking. Over the past 2 months I've had to get really serious about educating myself on the full scope of healthy living, I'm talking diet, fitness, you name it. Get inspired my fellow sick cunts! I want to see every last one of us win!!!
Through action, a Man becomes a Meme. Through death, a Meme becomes a Legend. Through time, a Legend becomes a Myth. And by learning from the Myth, a Man takes action. Long Live Zyzz.
Damn bro also everyone in June be talking about how they become they them or something but none knows about how it was also men’s mental health month man like people are always neglecting mental health mostly men
ΥΣΤΕΡΟΦΗΜΙΑ: The greatest ideal for Ancient Greeks, the idea of creating something so big that’s eternal to a degree that everyone will remember you even decades and centuries after you are gone. Zyzz achieved this.
@@Abhil295 Eesterro-Fimmia Is the best way to write it phonetically in English. It means fame after death. An example of this is the burning of the temple of Artemis at ephesus. When the man who burned it was questioned as to why he did it, he said it was so he would be remembered in history forever. A law was created banning mentioning his name in speech or writing so he would be forgotten, this didn't work. His name was Herostratus and he got exactly what he wanted.
This man has inspired millions globally. He's the reason I started going to the gym. I've been skinny my entire life, bones poking out 24/7. I went from a little under 150 to 160 in just a couple of months, and its only the beginning of the journey. Thank you brah, thank you for letting me know that we're all going to make it 🔱
Zyzz went to my high school pictured in this video. Years after he graduated his legacy lives on and his influence has inspired many from my school to better there lives and start going to the gym.
@@caimanshinebisu2018 that's absolutely wrong, what you're saying is "keep going in the wrong direction and you'll live". Nah, everyone should be fit, and being bulked doesn't mean you'll only live for only 30 years, as a matter of fact, it actually extends your life expectancy, Zyzz died because he overdid it, and like a friend used to say "too much of a good thing isn't good anymore"
@Arif Sakir I know he motivated many people, If he didn't overdo it, he would've inspired at least half of the internet. I never knew about him, I've got my own motivations.
@@gregtheseatreaderleviathan4609 no he's saying that if you burn 2x as much fuel you will theoretically get 2x the output but it will only last half as long, because you still have the same amount of fuel, but now you're burning it 2x as fast to get more output. For instance adding a second light to a battery operated light set up. Not sure what this has to do with this zuzz guy but oh well.

Brahhhh Zyzzzzzzz forever!!!!
Hey there! 💪 Your comment hit close to home for me too. Zyzz's "The Legacy" had the same profound impact on my life. It's incredible how he continues to inspire us, even though he's not here in person. The gym became my second home, and the motivation he instilled is something I carry with me every day. Together, we keep his legacy alive. Forever mirin' and forever grateful for the inspiration he shared. Keep pushing, my friend! 🌟💙
lucky for you it wasn't a recruitment video for ISIS you watched. Could of been really life changing.

Great editing, I felt the emotion you wanted to convey in the video. Great music and transitions. I’m very inspired. Keep making videos, I am inspired by you. I just found your channel and it’s awesome! Thank you!

What a dumb statement. You basically contradicted yourself in it
@@Rdizzle512 you miring brah
@@Rdizzle512 No, he didn't. He was saying a decade on the internet would be equal to a million years in the actual world. So for Zyzz to be remembered after 10 years, it would be like remembering someone in history from a million years ago.

He may be gone but his soul is still roaming around till to this day.he inspired billions of people that went from an obese/skinny person to a masterpiece similar to him! Rest in peace.
Zyzz saved my life back in 2013. I had just lost my ex, had no job, and was morbidly obese. I started watching his vids and because of that I started reading up on nutrition and lifting. I went from 311lbs to 197 lbs in 8 months. I got healthier, smarter and started enjoying life again. I've since gained some weight back but I'm came here to look for inspiration again and I found it. Not gonna lie, this video made me cry. Never knew the guy but I felt like I truly did, I think we all feel like we knew him to some extent. Feels like we lost a friend.

Zyzz changed my life in the last 6 months. I always knew about him a bit. But I really got inspired and influenced by him lately. Every day at the gym Im reminded and inspired by him. Hardstyle remixs with Zyzz speeches in them pump me up. Every set I'm struggling with I just know he would be supporting all of us to keep going. And I always chuck the zyzz pose with every tiny bit of progress. Zyzz was a wonderful human being. And there's a little bit of Zyzz in all of us.
If Chest Brah ever sees this, everyone loves you bro, you inspire me every day too
Really want to meet his brother some day for sure frfr
I was watching a video on embracing masculinity and there was several clips of him. He was a big motivation for me to start going to the gym more and working on my confidence/mental health. I’ve only been going for about three months but I’ve seen a major difference in my ascetics and strings but more importantly my confidence.

It’s insane how much legacy this kid has left behind they say a man dies twice, when he’s actually dies and when his name is never mentioned anymore. Zyzz is very much alive in our hearts
@Billy Shaw Nah its bs the old quote comes from the 3 mexican deaths. He just mentioned two.
@Billy Shaw didn't ask
A man also lives twice, one when you are living and the second life starts when you realise you only have 1

He got me threw one of the darkest times in my life. By embracing his philosophy of being ripped cut and a sick cont when you're down and and you're the most broken emotionally just pour it all in your training and use the pain in your heart to blow away the dark emotions like storm clouds until you burn them away in The Sun shines again as your newfound ripped physique meets with your new revitalize confidence and sense of self and purpose and direction. It was a mindset that genuinely saved my life
You got my respect, brother
his fallibility makes him a hero. He is like Greek Gods: born with great power but their issues were just as great as their power making them great sinners just as well as heroes.

Thankyou very much, really appreciate it!
@@brettjosh I didn’t realize how much I didn’t know about him, how he started out, or what direction he had shifted to pursuing towards the end. I developed a new appreciation for him after watching this. Looking forward to seeing what’s coming next!
@@FitLabb Yeah I had no idea he tried to change direction. But I was there on /b/ when Zyzz was alive and the whole community around him, and himself, seemed pretty toxic to me. My memories of him in those days aren't positive. I'm glad he tried to change.
Agreed
@Erwin Lii There was a lot of powerful stuff you said there, & you’ll probably be surprised to hear that I actually agree with a good amount of it. I believe that a person’s purpose for doing anything in life matters (including pursuing a fit & healthy lifestyle), as it defines their “why” & which path they set out on. While Zyzz got his start because of a childhood where he was bullied (incredibly similar to my experience, as being badly bullied was the single biggest reason that I started working out as well), he & I took very different paths from there, as we developed a very different purposes after that point. Internet fame might be a big part of why that happened with him, but I don’t know enough to assume anything…..But that’s why I said what I did about the positives & negatives about him, & also why I was happy to learn that he had been changing his ways to want to be a much better role model, & use his influence for good in the latter part of his life. After all, It’s the purpose that guides us in what we do that ultimately comes to define us, and I also believe that people are capable of changing that about themselves along the path of their life.
What you said about wanting a better body like me or Zyzz, and that nothing is effortless or comes without a cost also struck me for several reasons. On one hand, I’m well aware that Zyzz took PEDs to achieve his physique. I don’t judge people who choose to take PEDs, as whatever they do with their body is their business…..However I DO take issue with it when they are dishonest about it, especially when the main reason they present that lie is to sell products or services while pretending they achieved their physique naturally. I also don’t like how it reinforces body dysmorphia and the setting of unrealistic goals to countless people out there. I don’t know enough about Zyzz to know if he lied about his PED use, or lied to sell things, but sadly the fitness industry is FULL of people who do that, and who do actively prey on people’s desperation & insecurities as you said.
In my case, please don’t judge a book by its cover, as I’ve always been the polar opposite of all that nonsense. I started working out at 14 years old, & I’m now a 42 year old married father of 2 young boys who I aim to be the best possible role model for every single day. Achieving my fitness goals did come from great consistent efforts over the last 28 years, and the main “costs” for me have been removing a future of likely poorer health, becoming more confident, having a productive outlet for when I have a bad day, and my time. I have NEVER touched a single drug of any kind my entire life, nor will I ever, and that’s something I’m incredibly proud of. So I am here to tell you that you can achieve reasonable & attainable fitness goals for yourself, & you shouldn’t let all the BS, lies, & scams out there stop you from putting in the positive & productive efforts to start following a regular exercise program that’s both appropriate, sustainable, & enjoyable for you…..because I promise that your future self will thank you for doing that! Every bit of time & effort I’ve put in the gym over all these years has been worth it, as it’s improved my life in innumerable ways, and has even been my career for the last 20 years as a fitness professional who gets to actually help people become the best, happiest, & healthiest versions of themselves every single day. And I do that with the utmost amount of integrity, because at the end of every day, I have to not only look in the mirror and like who I see, but I also have to answer to my kids to make sure they’re proud of their Dad too.
Long story short, I’m with you as I actually share many of the same frustrations with the industry that you have. That’s one of the main reasons I threw my hat into the ring last year as well, by founding an online fitness coaching platform and a RUclips channel, both of which operate with the utmost of honesty & integrity. So thank you for leaving that thoughtful & important comment, and I wanted to let you know that there are actually good people in the industry who do truly care about doing things the right way & actually helping people who need & want it. And with that said, feel free to reach out anytime at all either in the comments or with a DM on Instagram, as I’m always happy to field any questions you might have, & I promise you’ll never be bothering me. Wishing you all the best Erwin! 👍

I really never expected this comment to get this much love, the community and culture Zyzz has created is truly unmatched. As of today I weighed in just under 210 pounds. I’m going for gold, we’re all going to make it brah!
UPDATE: 06/10/2022
First of all… I appreciate each and every last one of you have commented some motivation. Love you guys more than you know! This month I’m disappointed to say I’ve only dropped about 4 pounds, making my new lowest weight 206. BUT, I’m seeing REAL results and a that’s enough for me to keep pushing! Love you guys! Zyzz would be proud of all of us!

This weight loss shit is getting hard. However, I'm pleased to announce I have finally made it under 200 (current weight: 198.6) I've reached a point in my journey where I've had to change things up to get results. I've began experimenting with prolonged fasting and only drinking a salt water mixture to get me through. This has been the first time in my life I've completed a 72 hour fast (last week). The gym was brutal hahaha. I'm still making solid gains, really grateful for how much I've slimmed down and put on muscle. My focus is getting sharper, confidence is increasing, and life is truly getting better. To everyone who's commented so far, I love you... This comment section is the only group I actually talk to about my progress lol. Until next time brah! We're all gonna make it!

Sorry I missed last months update! However... I'm absolutely crushing it! This has honestly turned into the best year of my life. I weighed in this morning at 185.2 and I'm truly so stoked on how my body is looking. Over the past 2 months I've had to get really serious about educating myself on the full scope of healthy living, I'm talking diet, fitness, you name it. Get inspired my fellow sick cunts! I want to see every last one of us win!!!

Through action, a Man becomes a Meme.
Through death, a Meme becomes a Legend.
Through time, a Legend becomes a Myth.
And by learning from the Myth, a Man takes action.
Long Live Zyzz.

Zyzz He changed my mindset and motivated me to move forward✨🌌
"everybody has a little zyzz in them" -A fucking legend
ΥΣΤΕΡΟΦΗΜΙΑ: The greatest ideal for Ancient Greeks, the idea of creating something so big that’s eternal to a degree that everyone will remember you even decades and centuries after you are gone. Zyzz achieved this.
How's it pronounced? 🤔
@@Abhil295 Eesterro-Fimmia Is the best way to write it phonetically in English. It means fame after death. An example of this is the burning of the temple of Artemis at ephesus. When the man who burned it was questioned as to why he did it, he said it was so he would be remembered in history forever. A law was created banning mentioning his name in speech or writing so he would be forgotten, this didn't work. His name was Herostratus and he got exactly what he wanted.

This man has inspired millions globally. He's the reason I started going to the gym. I've been skinny my entire life, bones poking out 24/7. I went from a little under 150 to 160 in just a couple of months, and its only the beginning of the journey. Thank you brah, thank you for letting me know that we're all going to make it 🔱

ZYZZ INSPIRES ME TO MAKE THE VIDEOS I MAKE. all feedback is welcome 👨🚀namaste brothers
Honestly he seems like a pretty fun guy. I smiled throughout the entire video until the end.
He was the reason to motivate myself to got to the gym 💪💯
I'm glad that I know your legacy LEGEND 👑💖
One day I'll be on shape like you Master !!!
dont take steroids like him tho
Zyzz went to my high school pictured in this video. Years after he graduated his legacy lives on and his influence has inspired many from my school to better there lives and start going to the gym.
"A candle that burns twice as bright, burns half as long." RIP Zyzz.
So don't do that and you'll live to see your 25th birthday.
@@caimanshinebisu2018 that's absolutely wrong, what you're saying is "keep going in the wrong direction and you'll live". Nah, everyone should be fit, and being bulked doesn't mean you'll only live for only 30 years, as a matter of fact, it actually extends your life expectancy, Zyzz died because he overdid it, and like a friend used to say "too much of a good thing isn't good anymore"
I think he’s trying to say that the good die young guys he’s not saying that you should go down the wrong path
@Arif Sakir I know he motivated many people, If he didn't overdo it, he would've inspired at least half of the internet. I never knew about him, I've got my own motivations.
@@gregtheseatreaderleviathan4609 no he's saying that if you burn 2x as much fuel you will theoretically get 2x the output but it will only last half as long, because you still have the same amount of fuel, but now you're burning it 2x as fast to get more output. For instance adding a second light to a battery operated light set up. Not sure what this has to do with this zuzz guy but oh well.
