2 weeks without training at the home gym and no coffee, Eric has turned into a wisdom wizard and is looking to create his first self help book.

[@emanuelr950]

PlasticCup NO Coffeeeee!!!!!???

[@johnarthurtan]

Mr. Boogz, can you do a children's book about lifting? I could legitimately see that happening in the future. Great content!

[@jaythanking9491]

First it was heavy lifting and metal music. Then philosophy. Now art! Those are my personal passions as well lol. Keep up the good content.

[@AlexLeonidas]

These videos are the best bro

[@RiKo18]

lol WTF

[@johnnyderpp5925]

absolute FACT. This is true art no bullshit

[@DjNitroShock]

Agreed AD this is awesome

[@dontreadmyname4396]

this series are hilarious

[@Tyngdlyftning1]

this guy is probably high aaall the time lol

[@pisk64]

i thought for 2 months about the decision before i started lifting shit, i had anxiety going to gym and seeing people IRL. Fast forward, after following EB advice, one and half year later im close to hitting 5plate deadlift. Im not strong, aesthetic by any means, and my social anxiety is still significant. But i sure as fuck become more determined, driven and mentally stronger person. Who would have know that i would reach this small ass channel on YT with 4k subs, and it would change my perspective on life by 180 degrees. At first i thought those doodle videos are just meaningless, but now i have seen the light. I think i will start writing the book, as similar concept to let myself out of my brain. I cant write for shit, but that probably wont stop me from writing anyway.

You're legitimately the only thing I enjoy about KZbin. You've opened my eyes in terms of the mindset

[@masonreed9328]

You're destined for greatness, eric.

[@FoX2FoX2]

Was in a slump and changed up my lifting program. Felt terrifying, like I'm deserting my gains, like I don't know what I'm doing, but once I got the ball rolling WOOOOOOOO packing on size and strength in areas long neglected. Feels absolutely fantastic. Went for a full cue ball buzzcut and the reactions I've been getting are really great, social interaction at an all-time high. I feel happier, more connected and like I'm on the right track. I was scared of change but I MUSTARD up the courage to KETCHUP with my mindset and I'm RELISHING THE GAINZ.

Moustache= +99 wisdom

[@musicforhours4605]

hold on i can't take this much of wisdom at once

[@MichaelRorich]

That elevator music in the background makes this video so much better...

[@iksdistek]

bless your heart eric, hope you're having a wonderful day

[@divanvanniekerk5101]

Give it a couple of days and your going to be wiser than Steven Hawking

[@jorgeleon6995]

The whole quote is "slow and steady wins the race until truth and talent takes its place". The rabbit had the talent and the TRUTH is that he won the race, but the message of the universe aligning itself and you coming out victorious without even trying resonates so well with this generation. Thank you for your videos. Keep it up.

[@theloadqueen5009]

I could watch this video every day.

[@biglou250]

thank u for advice eric bugenbagel i will try to be a hairy tortis for rest of days. god bless u

[@eastcoast_egolifter]

Lou Anthony I have an important question. How do you have top five calf in all of Pakistan? I hit calf raise machine 5 hours daily but never have received any growth.

[@biglou250]

Its half genetic half hard work and half consitence. Keep at it friend and god bless u

[@eastcoast_egolifter]

Lou Anthony thank you Mr. Anthony

[@leonyberg8824]

I love these self improvement/mindset videos keep em comin

[@gabrielprodanovic]

Be high energy. That’s the best tip I’ve heard tbh, I’ve noticed that whenever I’m tired, I tend to make people go away. Thank you bugez!!!

[@Guyonthecouch92]

This is some of the most simple yet deep advice I’ve ever heard. I was the tortoise, but I’m trying real hard to be the the hare. On the real, you’ve changed my approach to lifting and I’ve made some pretty noticeable changes very quickly. Bugez for president 2020

[@vincentadultman4300]

The tortoise with the hair ahahah

[@YSGMG]

You've been a big inspiration to my training man. been here since under 5k

[@aleksandarzivotic501]

Made me thinking.

[@rublack8731]

Thought the vid was stupid at first, watched all the way through and man this was really inspiring! Love your energy and attitude my dude. I remembered back to that vid you did with jujimufu when he said hack deads were stupid lol and you said "It's not stupid! You'll eat your words!"

[@Swoooooooon]

This entire video is gold, but the part about energy is perfect. You're so right about how much positivity high energy brings.

[@woozbekistan6847]

Thank you Eric, I didn’t think I needed this speech, but I desperately did

[@DjNitroShock]

Bro, keep making these. They are glorious, your ideas are great! I've been going through a tough time, haven't trained in a week my diets been crap, I'm under a lot of stress moving and I feel like these videos were made for me. Thank you so much bugez

[@ktasuja]

How did we get here? Loving the videos

[@logand5996]

I really needed this shit a couple years ago. Finally coming out of that rough patch though so I'll take these messages and keep driving forward

[@Eringobragh2024]

View "bad" times as opportunity for growth! Had a great day with this fresh in my mind, thanks bugez!!

[@Ezmody]

This stuff is funny AF. You have a lot of inspiration!!

[@brenopaiva7969]

i usually just listen to my stuff on the youtubez, but man i have to stop and watch this amazing work of art and philosophy you offer us.

[@PresidentRory]

I feel like this video should interrupt every broadcast, across the globe, simultaneously. The world needs to see this.

[@marcattili]

I always knew you knew whats really up with our minds!!!! This video makes me so happy!!!

[@MikeyMike2500]

[@HammerBlow500]

[@kylehubka6719]

[@atanasminkov4405]

[@bunneez]

My mindset has entered a new chapter, my brain has grown a shell.

This is so great what you are doing Eric. Greetz from Holland

[@joseftahasson]

You are the best Eric!

[@marlonjormungand7845]

One of the best vids i have ever watched. You are setting me on fire.

[@coolboy111]

Keep preaching! I really enjoy your videos ; It's easy to lose track of ''you"" in the whole scheme of things .The fire in my heart has been dimming down lately but energy is something you cultivate a...MINDSET you could say.

[@Billythakid1221]

All the strongest guys are talking about mindset, subconscious, thirdeye there's gotta be something to this talk

[@DubstepQuickScope]

your the fucking man. Ive been getting stronger every day now that I scream mindset before each heavy set

[@yannickp.2430]

ERIC I know it's an old video but I need to know the name of the song starting at 2:20 PLEASE

[@tommcgivern8020]

This dude should have his own show. He could do SNL, be a judge on any talent show or anything really.

[@jkake2434]

powerful, thank you for posting eric.

[@leebarkass963]

Great message with great illustrations bugz. The jacked tortoise is kind of horrifying

[@theonorman3048]

I can completely relate to this; a while ago i buzz cut my hair and that relatively minor change in the grand scheme of things changed my life completely for the better.

[@patrickbateman9077]

You have an almost Picasso esque quality to your drawings

[@prof.abderrahmane]

Time is probably the prominent underlying theme of all of your artistic mind, just think about it.

[@Adam-lc6mk]

I really love this video. I used to draw and just kinda stopped a few years ago but this has made me want to start again. Plus, the message you are putting out there is awesome!

[@spiritualru2364]

He looks identical to the typical Navy Seal instructor

[@stevenhenderson1198]

This man is a God. He is an actual deity. Fuck me

[@michaelsofine]

I didn’t know which way you were going with it but I should have expect like the hot dog example you’d go another way. 😂

[@conalls2480]

As a lifter and a philosophy junkie, this stuff is actually awesome! Good stuff Bugez!

[@harmanrao8033]

Eric I love your videos! I was wondering if you sell workout plans! I love the intensity of your workouts and talks! Keep it up brother, the metal is in you!!

[@ericbugenhagenOfficial]

[@thebluetravelers7544]

My third eye is vibrating while watching this 💪💪

[@PrivTrd]

quite possibly the best channel on youtube...go BUGEZ!

[@thomasc2869]

Curious if you’ll ever do any merchandise? Big fan would love to support.

[@kyleabrams5036]

Here's a nugget of wisdom from a random dude on twitter. Just because you've done wrong in the past doesn't mean you can't go against it now. It doesn't make you a hypocrite, you grew. *Don't let people use your past to invalidate your current mindset* The *bold* is what hit me because I love my family and friends but sometimes people who know you best can be a big negative reinforcement without genuinely meaning to be. They can make it harder for a person to believe in themself. Or eventually you can adopt a stubborn mindset and then you use that discouragement as fuel. I think confident and stubborn people will start working harder when they have a few doubters, someone to prove wrong. I don't know if you see comments on older videos but please do some atlas stones next time you see Juji. I mean, if you're man enough and all...

[@jdegraaf6195]

this is some deep shit

[@secretly3652]

I'm liking these

[@stelliumeleven2889]
