To me, it's this Arnold Schwarzenegger's video https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=R1JBQMXbN2k

It weaves in his "6 Rules of Success" into a very inspiring video... not just for Gym motivation, but for any kind of goal you are trying to achieve, but aren't making progress towards....

Anything Kai Greene. Thoughts become things.. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=-0cd8f9f6Gk

And a non Kai classic: "There is no reason to be alive if you can't do deadlift." https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=ZWUcHKAj_tc

Of course there is always watching Arnold pose to get you motivated.

I really like this topic.

I'm really interested in this topic like others HN-er, seeing the variety of content, would be interested to understand why it's flagged: gym is a stress-reliever and others huge health benefits.

For me, it depends on the day: Ronnie squat (https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=LVVdlwf1iyM)

Eddie Hall Deadlift (https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=U4AQlamvFzs)

If lacking the motivation to DO usually Kay Greene works: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=-jVQnoQ1S6U

Something more fitness-y , like Steve cook: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=tNsc5GIUPIY

And if I want something more different, I check the last video from NickVisionMotivation, awesome videos!

(Go Big Ramy or Nathan for Mr.O for anyone following the scene!)

Either a prime Ronnie: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=D3vO_ogtpUI OR something by nickvision motivation or makaveli motivation. This ones the best I've seen (and I'm not a huge Dorian fan): https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=1dB1y6GDAAE

OT: I know you said you aren't a huge Dorian fan, but this Podcast [0] from Joe Regan is really awesome. He managed to be the first beast of his kind, and to get back in a normal shape to have an (almost) normal life ahead. He knew the price and managed it well, in a sort of Cutler way.
