How Heartbreak Turned Him into a Super Human (ft.

Today I interview the Super Human, Larry Gao, the man who used his last heartbreak as pre workout in order to spend 2-3 hours a day in the gym for 5+ years. This helped him achieve the body of his dreams and more. We talk about the in's and out's of dating in the fitness & self growth stage in life. As well as what he did in order to become who he is today.

ong this is the collab we all needed

[@Kencival]

The best type of people in my opinion, are the ones that made these drastic changes in life, yet still remain as the most kind and humble dudes.

[@RandomKoitsu11]

They’ve got that Steve Rogers trait

[@CircusWang]

By far the best episode yet. Larry is such a quality guest and an inspirational guy.

[@timtim818]

Being broken by an ex caused me to get addicted to the gym as well. Being humbled by feeling unattractive is the best motivator.

[@raheemcamal998]

Indeed

[@robinw4354]

Damn. “Being humbled by feeling unattractive is the best motivator” fucking strong as hell brother. Hits deep. Same boat as you! In solidarity brotha

[@felizrookie4082]

Bruh Larry if you read this, you are extremely inspirational and I appreciate all of the content you have provided for lifters. Also thanks for the podcast Jimmy, this was a good one 👌

[@astrokris2097]

Damn, couldn’t relate more to this video my god. When Covid hit, my ex moved back to her home town. We did long distance for a year and she ultimately broke up with me. That straight up broke me. Was so unbelievably depressed. Two months later, I started hitting the gym 6 times a week. It’s been almost a year now and the results are satisfying. Still got a long way to go though.

[@robinw4354]

what he says at 8:00. about the crying. being a mess. all that. He single handily made a million more fans. cause thats real talk. real hard to say, real hard to think about, real hard to reflect, and honestly real hard to admit. Larry, same shit happened to me. good on ya mate to better yourself.

[@livingmyjameslifeRN]

dang always been wanting to hear about Larry's mindset and background so this was perfect. Even better to see that he's super humble and has his eyes on the prize. this might be the next up and coming podcast to look out for!

[@challengeyourmind3937]

Larry is a humble ass dude. Respects.

[@TubeDeviant]

This talk ended abruptly and I feel that Larry needs to come back onto the show.. =) This talk could have easily gone on a bit longer. Thank you to Larry for sharing his past experiences and his vulnerable side, because doing so is an example of emotional strength and growth. Getting to know a little bit about him has definitely been inspiring cause I know I struggle to even start working out, let along making that a life style change.

[@gaurichess]

Huge fan of your humor Larry (fan of your channel). But also nice to see a humble down to earth dude. I look up to you man!

[@selfimprovement9931]

Larry Gao is such a respectable guest. I love his mindset and morals.

[@dom_lovesmilk4945]

I’m not even 10 mins in and this podcast is fs the best part of my day. Larry is no doubt in my mind the best fitness influencer. I’m also relating to this breakup story of his and I’m still trying to get over this hump.

[@aestheticlegacy394]

Hands down the best episode. Couldnt believe my eyes when i saw you did a collab with the legend 🐐👑

[@davidriadi7489]

man’s such a chad, mad respect

[@poejavelski148]

I resonate with the heartbreak part of Larry’s story. After a break-up, I was initially not doing well at all and lost about 10-15 pounds over a couple months. I was already super skinny and never made good progress in the gym, but this finally motivated me to take it seriously. Over the next year I bulked about 45 pounds and never looked back.

[@letechnicaljames]

It's CRAZY how many transformation stories happen after breakups.

[@alvarobazan7683]

it's not a breakup, it's a breakthrough. self-care is the most important care, you're stuck with yourself for life.

[@timmy9864]

@@alvarobazan7683 self care turns into steroid use

[@kabafx1394]

Me and Larry have the exact experience of the first girlfriend . It’s definitely a motivational booster 💪🏼😂

[@xxjsmoothxx1018]

Same here that why I started hitting the gym and being laser focus

[@ysheepy4907]

exactly the same here bro

[@King1CurtisLOLZBros]

Never knew how chill Larry was. Sick dude

[@nam4574]

I really appreciate this episode 😌 Larry gave me some points I lost when I was on the self improvement state

[@getonwithit.2847]

Bro getting rejected and broken hearted by a girl sucks but the most painful rejection I experienced was getting rejected by my dream job that shit still hurts man.

[@PhuPhillipTrinh]

wow jimmy this show is going to blow up! your best content ever and i've been following you for awhile! You going places brother! Can't wait for your next guest!

[@jackie41083]

It’s very rare to find a guy with a lot of self-discipline and lack of presumption like Larry. I think he is definitely more loyal and grounded than he lets on. I also think, no offense, Jimmy seems kind of obsessed with how to “get girls” like a borderline addiction. Anyway, I loved this conversation

[@wazzuproductionz]

damn Larry hella chill! loving the podcast and the variety of guests

[@Ronin-kk4bt]

He’s chill Af I feel like me and him would be good friends

[@connorzkim2049]

Both of my heros in the same video lets gooo

[@slippscheese]

always have respect for Larry, his mindset and discipline is inspiring.

[@juangal7569]

Larry is one of the best inspirations for me lately, love his content. 💪🙏😄

[@OliverJanShD]

Damn, I have so much respect for this guy after watching this. I didn't know he could be so relatable with how famous he is now!

[@FitBlueprint]

The "leave it, it's my warmup set" short by Larry is one of the funniest clips I've ever watched.

[@keisimmons]

The ahhhhggg at 3:59 killed me🤣

I just discovered Larry Gao’s content through KZbin shorts a couple of weeks ago. Spent like 3 hours straight binging them. Fire collab Jimmy

[@derickpnw]

Larry you a good dude. Keep up the humility brother. You got star qualities

[@LightCave02]

"Sex is kind of a sinful thing" The word “sin” (as we know it from the Bible) is an archery term that comes from the Greek word Hamartia which means “to miss the mark”. In context to what yall are saying, sex here would be distracting you from your goals, so you're technically correct lmao. Great podcast boys

Watching Goku, Vegeta, Rock Lee, Luffy...etc. training their ass off get me pump everytime =))) I was too cocky and try to pick fight with the strongest dude I found in class ever since middle school, and try to be friend them after LOL.

[@arkonem2933]

Loved this podcast but Larry is wrong on one thing. Most girls do like muscular physiques, it's not just the enhanced confidence that has an effect. Literally take the same person and make him a twig or relatively jacked and girls will pick the jacked version 9/10 times.

[@themarathoncontinues4211]

I think guys expect girls to just approach them non-stop when they get jacked. Its more that you won’t get rejected as much when you approach

[@Luminated]

There was a study that I read that actually states the opposite. When girls see a jacked/shredded guy they think he is hot but they want nothing long lasting with the guy because it causes insecurities. Not every girl is this way, but the study said girls begin to compare themselves to the guy and get intimidated about looks. Girls will have an interest in a guy who is shredded but they gravitate towards the average guy. A guy who is confident regardless of body type (not talking about extremes) will have an overall better time talking and dating than a guy who has no confidence.

[@spaghettiman426]

@@Luminated that’s cuz most chicks don’t lift, that’s why gym bros just pick hot chicks and Gym mommies. So really realistically those chicks are gonna pick the better male. It just depends on the demo for success.

[@f430ferrari5]

@Arko. You’re talking about “girls” not “women”. Women want a stable guy who they feel can take care of them and the family they raise. There are also many girls and women who don’t like guys too focused on working out.

[@arkonem2933]

@@f430ferrari5 I'm talking in general my guy, obviously some girls/women won't want a guy who works out for many reasons, one of which can be their own insecurity. Also why not prefer a stable guy who can take care of them and their family who's also fit because he works out 5 hrs a week?

Redpill/nofap are not mutually exclusive things, but there does seem to be some overlap between the two communities. But yeah, whatever works is the main thing
