Efter en miljon års slit med tusentals pass på gymet, tusentals mil promenader, tusentals kilo mat, tusentals timmar med analyserande och funderande kring träning, kost och kroppen så är min tanke nu att samla alla tankar, funderingar och frågeställningar här.
Vill du veta de senaste vetenskapliga rönen från världens alla laboratorier så är detta inte sidan för dig. Om du däremot är nyfiken på mina tankar från alla års relation med stålet så hoppas jag att du kan få glädje av något du finner här.
Mycket kommer att hända träningsåret 2012, det är fullt fokus som gäller....
So enjoy! // Kenny Dahlström Kontakt

"The Iron never lies to you. You can walk outside and listen to all kinds of talk, get told that you're a god or a total bastard. The Iron will always kick you the real deal. The Iron is the great reference point, the all-knowing perspective giver. Always there like a beacon in the pitch black. I have found the Iron to be my greatest friend. It never freaks out on me, never runs. Friends may come and go. But two hundred pounds is always two hundred pounds."
"The size of your success is measured by the strength of your desire; the size of your dream; and how you handle disappointment along the way." - Robert Kiyosaki
"If you don´t live for something you´ll die for nothing."
"You have to do what others won't to achieve what others don't."
"Far better is it to dare mighty things, to win glorious triumphs, even though checkered by failure...than to rank with those poor spirits who neither enjoy much nor suffer much, because they live in a gray twilight that knows not victory nor defeat."
-Theodore Roosevelt"Nothing is over until you stop trying."
"You are the architect of your own destiny."
"Everything you do, every decision you make, either takes you a step closer or a step further away from your goal. You either grow or you regress; nothing stands still."
"When I stand before God at the end of my life, I would hope that I would not have a single bit of talent left, and could say, "I used everything you gave me."
"Too many people make excuses as to why they “cant” or how they “don’t have time”. If your body and health is important to you, then make it a priority and become consistent." - IFBB PRO Stan McQuay
"If it is important to you, you will find a way.
If not, you'll find an excuse.""Visualize this thing that you want, see it, feel it, believe in it. Make your mental blue print, and begin to build."
- Robert Collier“People often say that motivation doesn’t last. Well, neither does bathing – that’s why we recommend it daily.”
- Zig Ziglar"Do not go where the path may lead; go instead where there is no path and leave a trail"
"People are always blaming their circumstances for what they are. I don't believe in circumstances. The people who get on in this world are the people who get up and look for the circumstances they want, and, if they can't find them, make them."
- G.B. Shaw"The pain of disipline is far less than the pain of regret"
"The finest steel has to go through the hottest fire."
"Confront the dark parts of yourself, and work to banish them with illumination and forgiveness. Your willingness to wrestle with your demons will cause your angels to sing. Use the pain as fuel, as a reminder of your strength."
"I wake up every day with the realization that this is it, that there's only one shot at this life and I can either enjoy the ride and live it to its fullest and to my highest potential or I can stay the way I am. "
"Strength is a matter of the made-up mind." - John Beecher
"Through my illness I learned rejection. I was written off. That was the moment I thought, Okay, game on. No prisoners. Everybody's going down." - Lance Armstrong
"Don’t limit yourself. Many people limit themselves to what they think they can do. You can go as far as your mind lets you. What you believe, remember, you can achieve."
- Mary Kay Ash"You are the architect of your own destiny."
"It's a dream until you write it down, and then its a goal."
-
"There are only two options regarding commitment, You're either in or your out. There's no such thing as life in between."
"Offseason does not mean everyday is a carb load."
"You look in the mirror, and you ask yourself; I am the best? The answer should always be no. Is there someone better out there? The answer should be always be yes. But then everyday you look at that reflection and you say that is who I must beat, I train to beat them. Then one day you beat them; so you find another. There is always someone you need to beat, even if that person ends up being you in the end, suppress yourself and never f**king quit and never accept that you are the best and there is nothing more you can accomplish. On this team, in my weight room, I never want to hear the words 'I am satisfied'. If you squat 405 for the first time I want you to wipe the puke off yourself come over and write down your new goal. Complacency has no place in sports or life. When you think your the best I guarantee that the someone will come over and knock your ass down. You know why? Because he was never satisfied with being the what he thought was his best and kept training like he did in the first place. There is no my best. There is only my former best and my new goal."
"I can't stand people who whing and b**ch about not being able to
Lose weight, Build Muscle, get healthy etc...Or they complain about
not having enough time to Workout, Prepare meals, Shop for healthy
foods, Workout a plan that works for them....Nobody has the time to do any of this..Not even me..but what seperates
us from the rest is we are willing to sacrifice our time for what we love.The feeling you get after a big workout where you have just hit a 1 rep max
on your squat, or pumped out more reps than you ever have before..This is
the feeling we all strive for..To know we have pushed our body to its
extreme limits and knowing that next week this workout wouldnt matter...
Its all about your next workout...Thats all that matters..While you eat your chips and chocolates and then make some pathetic attempt
to go for a walk and then eat oily food afterwards, we are busy preparing meals with
healthy carbs, healthy fats, and more protein than you will eat in 1 day...Not because we want
to, but because it is who we are...This is what will seperate us from the average!"
"The last three or four reps is what makes the muscle grow. This area of pain divides the champion from someone else who is not a champion. That's what most people lack, having the guts to go on and just say they'll go through the pain no matter what happens." - Arnold Schwarzenegger
"Success is no accident. It is hard work, perseverance, learning, studying, sacrifice and most of all, love of what you are doing or learning to do." - Pele
"You start with a dream. But without hard work, you may end up with nothing but the dream. Hold onto your dreams. They're important. The ideal situation, however, is to go out and make those dreams come true. Only you can do this; nobody else can do it for you. If you're willing to work hard and make the necessary sacrifices, you can do it. Hard work's
constant companion is sacrifice. To get the edge, you have to be willing to pay the price for success. This means practicing according to a schedule, and not when you feel like it or when it's convenient. If you're serious about reaching your goal, you must be willing to practice when you'd rather be doing something else. Make the sacrifice. Work hard. Do what it takes
in practice to be a winner."
The Edge by Howard E. Ferguson"The greatest oak was once a little nut who held its ground"
"Limitations are for people that have them and excuses are for people that need them."
"There is no such thing as perfection or being the best. You can always be better and someone is always better than you. Therefor your goal in life should be simple...strive to beat everyone and do not stop until you do!"
"If you are going to win any battle, you have to do one thing. You have to make the mind run the body. Never let the body tell the mind what to do... the body is never tired if the mind is not tired."
-General George S. Patton"Every passing minute is another chance to turn it all around"
"In the confrontation between the stream and the rock, the stream always wins- not through strength but by perseverance." H. Jackson Brown
"Mirrors dont show progress, they just show how much work is left to do"
"Make rest a neccesity,not an objective.Only rest long enough to gather strenght." - Jim Rohn
"Suffer the pain of discipline or suffer the pain of regret"
"Every morning in Africa a gazelle wakes up. It knows it must move faster than the lion or it will not survive. Every morning a lion wakes up and it knows it must move faster than the slowest gazelle or it will starve. It doesn't matter if you are the lion or the gazelle, when the sun comes up, you better be moving."
"Each workout is like a brick in a building, and every time you go in there and do a half-ass workout, you're not laying a brick down. Somebody else is." - Dorian Yates
"If you think the pain of making a necessary change is too much for you to endure, wait until you one day experience the pain of having not changed, and when there's not enough time in your life left to take back control of where you are, how you are and what you are."
-
"Nothing in the world can take the place of persistence. Talent will not; nothing is more common than unsuccessful men with talent. Genius will not; unrewarded genius is almost a proverb. Education will not; the world is full of educated derelicts. Persistence and determination alone are omnipotent. The slogan, 'press on' has solved, and always will solve, the problems of the human race." - Calvin Coolidge
"Pain is temporary. It may last a minute, or an hour, or a day, or a year, but eventually it will subside and something else will take its place. If I quit, however, it lasts forever." -Lance Armstrong
"This is your life, and it's ending one minute at a time."
"Keep on going, and the chances are that you will stumble on something, perhaps when you are least expecting it. I never heard of anyone ever stumbling on something sitting down."
- Charles F. Kettering"Everything you want is out there waiting for you to ask. Everything you want also wants you. But you have to take action to get it." - Jack Canfield
"There is no failure except in no longer trying."
“Of every one hundred men, Ten shouldn't even be there, Eighty are nothing but targets, Nine are real fighters...We are lucky to have them...They make the battle. Ah, but the One, One of them is a Warrior...and He will bring the others back." -Hericletus (circa 500 B.C.)
"The difference between who you are and who you want to be...
Is what you do.""What we think or what we believe is, in the end, of little consequence. The only thing of consequence is what we do." - John Ruskin
"The rewards for those who persevere far exceed the pain that must precede the victory."
"You are what your deep, driving desire is.
As your desire is, so is your will.
As your will is, so is your deed.
As your deed is, so is your destiny""If you have made mistakes, there is always another chance for you. You may have a fresh start any moment you choose, for this thing we call 'failure' is not the falling down, but the staying down."
- Mary Pickford"When things go wrong as they sometimes will;
When the road you're trudging seems all uphill;
When the funds are low, and the debts are high
And you want to smile, but have to sigh;
When care is pressing you down a bit-
Rest if you must, but do not quit.
Success is failure turned inside out;
The silver tint of the clouds of doubt;
And you can never tell how close you are
It may be near when it seems so far;
So stick to the fight when you're hardest hit-
It's when things go wrong that you must not quit.""Your training partner's name is pain. You start out trying to ignore him. Can't do it. You attempt to reason with him. No way. You try to strike a bargain. Hah. You plead. You say "Please stop, please go away. I promise never ever to do this again if you just leave me alone." But he won't. Pain only climbs off if you do. Then you're beaten. " - Scott Martin
"Every great dream begins with a dreamer. Always remember, you have within you the strength, the patience, and the passion to reach for the stars to change the world."
- Harriet Tubman"Commitment leads to action. Action brings your dream closer."
- Marcia Wieder"Men do less than they ought, unless they do all they can."
- Thomas Carlyle"To give anything less than your best is to sacrifice the gift."
"I´m not like everyone. I don´t live like they live. I don´t eat what they eat. No donuts. No coffee with cream and two sugars. No morning papers. It´s 6:52 am and I'm on my second meal. While everyone else is hitting the snooze, I´m hitting my stride. No coffee breaks. No weekends. No sick days. What do I do? I´m building my body, it´s a job.
The day doesn´t start at 9 and it won´t end at 5. It starts from the time I open my eyes and it ends the time I shut them. I live it 24/7. This is a job. This is my life!" -
"Tough times don't last. Tough people do."
"He who is not courageous enough to take risks will accomplish nothing in life." - Muhammad Ali

- Vince Lombardi"Leaders are made, they are not born. They are made by hard effort, which is the price which all of us must pay to achieve any goal that is worthwhile." - Vince Lombardi

"There is no achievement without goals."
"People with goals succeed because they know where they're going."
"I find it fascinating that most people plan their vacation with better care than they do their lives.Perhaps that is because escape is easier than change." - Jim Rohn
"Everyone has his burden. What counts is how you carry it."
"The state of your life is nothing more than a reflection of your state of mind." - Dr. Wayne W. Dyer
"Great souls have wills; feeble ones have only wishes."
"People do not lack strength; they lack will." - Victor Hugo
"Unless you change how you are,you will always have what you've got."
"The only discipline that lasts is self-discipline."
"You never will be the person you can be if pressure, tension ard discipline are taken out of your life."

"Few men during their lifetime come anywhere near exhausting the resources dwelling within them. There are deep wells of strength that are never used." - Richard E. Byrd
"There is no limit to what you can imagine. And with commitment, with effort, what you can imagine you can become. Put your mind to work for you. Believe that you can do it. The world will tell you that you can't. Yet, in your belief you'll find the strength, you'll find the ability, to do it anyway." - Ralph Marston
"You gain strength, courage and confidence by every experience in which you really stop to look fear in the face. You are able to say to yourself, "I lived through this horror. I can take the next thing that comes along." . . . You must do the thing you think you cannot do." - Eleanor Roosevelt
“A dream doesn’t become a reality through magic;
it takes sweat, determination and hard work.” - Colin Powell -

“Pain is temporary, pride is forever”
“Try and fail is the manner of losers; try and learn is the way of the strong.”
“Only the weak attempts to accomplish what he knows he can already achieve.”
“Failure will not overcome me so long as my will to succeed is stronger” - Micheal S. Kirby

"Desire is the key to motivation, but it's the determination and commitment to an unrelenting pursuit of your goal- a commitment to excellence- that will enable you to attain the success you seek."
"Experiencing this pain in my muscles and aching and going on and on is my challenge. The last three or four reps is what makes the muscles grow. This area of pain divides a champion from someone who is not a champion. That's what most people lack, having the guts to go on and just say they'll go through the pain no matter what happens. I have no fear of fainting. I do squats until I fall over and pass out. So what? It's not going to kill me. I wake up five minutes later and I'm OK. A lot of other athletes are afraid of this. So they don't pass out. They don't go on." - Arnold Schwarzenegger

"My body knows its limits, my mind just refuses to accept them"
"People ask why I train so much and eat like I do all the time. Well the answer is simple: I will not allow somebody with twice the genetics and half the determination be better than me"
"Seriously, if you always put limits on what you can do, physical or anything else, it'll spread over into the rest of your life. It'll spread into your work, into your morality, into your entire being. There are no limits. There are plateaus, but you must not stay there, you must go beyond them. If it kills you, it kills you. A man must constantly exceed his level." - Bruce Lee
"It takes a strong mind to challenge the body, and even greater mind to challenge others. But it takes a courageous mind to challenge ones own mind, old beliefs and old habits."
"Every day do something that will inch you closer to a better tomorrow."
"Change and growth take place when a person has risked himself and dares to become involved with experimenting with his own life."
"Nothing can stop the man with the right mental attitude from achieving his goal; nothing on earth can help the man with the wrong mental attitude." - Thomas Jefferson
"The surest way not to fail is to determine to succeed."
"Other people and things can stop you temporarily. You're the only one who can do it permanently."
"No one can go back and make a brand new start. Anyone can start from now and make a brand new ending."

"Storms make trees take deeper roots."
"Failure will never overtake me if my determination to succeed is strong enough"
"Silence is a source of great strength." - Lao Tzu
"Self-discipline begins with the mastery of your thoughts. If you don't control what you think, you can't control what you do. Simply, self-discipline enables you to think first and act afterward."
"Four short words sum up what has lifted most successful individuals above the crowd: a little bit more. They did all that was expected of them and a little bit more."
"I knew from feelings that I had to do something. And I did it. And I did it well. I did what made me feel better tomorrow even though it was very, very painful at the time. The result was beneficial. Doing those things today that feel good tomorrow." - Thomas D. Willhite
"You pile up enough tomorrows, and you'll find you've collected a lot of empty yesterdays."
"It is not enough to begin; continuance is necessary. Success depends upon staying power. The reason for failure in most cases is lack of perseverance."
"All of us have bad luck and good luck. The man who persists through the bad luck - who keeps right on going - is the man who is there when the good luck comes - and is ready to receive it."
"Life is not easy for any of us. But what of that? We must have perseverance and above all confidence in ourselves. We must believe that we are gifted for something, and that this thing, at whatever cost, must be attained."
"Our greatest glory is not in never falling but in rising every time we fall."
"Just don't give up trying to do what you really want to do."
"You just can’t beat the person who won’t give up."
"People are always blaming circumstances for what they are. I don’t believe in circumstances. The people who get ahead in this world are the people who get up and look for the circumstances they want, and if they can’t find them, make them." - George Bernard Shaw
"If you don't design your own life plan, chances are you'll fall into someone else's plan. And guess what they may have planned for you? Not much." - Jim Rohn

-
"That some achieve great success, is proof to all that others can achieve it as well."
"Never leave that till tomorrow which you can do today."
"You cannot measure a man by his failures. You must know what use he makes of them. What did they mean to him. What did he get out of them."
"You cannot control what happens to you, but you can control your attitude toward what happens to you, and in that, you will be mastering change rather than allowing it to master you." - Brian Tracy
"Feeling sorry for yourself, and your present condition, is not only a waste of energy but the worst habit you could possibly have."
"The man who complains about the way the ball bounces is likely the one who dropped it." - Lou Holtz
"To keep the body in good health is a duty... otherwise we shall not be able to keep our mind strong and clear." - Buddha
"If you'll not settle for anything less than your best, you will be amazed at what you can accomplish in your lives." - Vince Lombardi
"How many times in our life have we been afraid to tackle a tough task, believing that we just didn't have enough talent or brains or guts to succeed, and then once we have forced ourselves to try - and successfully completed the challenge - we look back at what we have done, finally realizing that our greatest enemy, the one who urges us not even to try because we would certainly fail, was none other than ourselves." - Mandino

Igår så tog jag mig äntligen en riktig växardag. Efter det 16:e passet på 19 dagar i Karlstad i lördags morse så var kroppen precis så färdig som det var tänkt. Helt slut. Och inte bara fysiskt utan också mentalt. … Continue reading
Lite snack i halvtid
Årets Struggle Camp har tagit sig halvvägs in i kampen och Kenny Dahlström har inte setts till på Västerbron på ett tag och då Strävan & Viljas reporter har full koll på läget i vanlig ordning så var det inte … Continue reading
Intervallträning
Intervallträning är ju ett vitt begrepp och förekommer ju förstås i en mängd olika varianter utifrån vad syftet med intervallträningen är. En form som blivit allt populärare under senare år är högintensiv intervallträning (HIIT – High-Intensity Interval Training) och den … Continue reading
10 optimala godsaker
En stor del av träningslivet handlar ju om mat och ju hårdare träning desto större hunger. Tyvärr så innebär ju inte en större hunger att man får äta vad man vill, men därmed inte sagt att hjärnan inte lever sitt egna … Continue reading
Andningspaus
I morse så vaknade jag upp bakfull. Efter gårdagens böjpass med grabbarna så ville kroppen inte riktigt ha mat, så det fick bli till att rigga i ordning tre skålar med blåbärsgröt för att äta under natten och för varje … Continue reading
En dag i ytterligheternas trakter
En kväll som denna så är hela skallen tom och jag har faktiskt ingen aning om vad jag skall fylla detta inlägg med. Men det är så att om jag nu bestämt mig för att blogga hela 2012, hur ska … Continue reading
10 optimala livsmedel
Mat är sannerligen en underbar gåva och mat är inte heller bara fantastiskt gott, det är också fantastisk energi till kroppen och en förutsättning för hård träning. Min Top10-lista gäller livsmedel jag inte klarar mig utan. Dels för att jag … Continue reading
10 optimala övningar
Det bästa med att ha en egen träningsblogg är att man får ha fritt spelutrymme för sina egna åsikter. Och det kan vara väl på sin plats om man skall till att ”bygga sig” en Top10-lista över de bästa övningarna, … Continue reading
Justera! Leverera!
Vissa saker tål att upprepas i all oändlighet och det handlar återigen om det i Sverige så populära uttrycket ”man måste lyssna på kroppen, bla, bla, bla, bla och en j*vla massa blä blä blä!!” Orsaken till att jag tycker att … Continue reading
Förstörd
Om syftet med mina handlingar är att bryta ned mig själv i atomer så känns det som om att jag är på väldigt god väg att lyckas. Nionde dagen på årets Struggle Camp och jag är totalt nedkörd. Gott så. … Continue reading
Träningsvärk
Träningsvärk är ett populärt ämne och ännu populärare är det att berätta om sin grymma och brutala träningsvärk. Jag har min syn och mitt förhållningssätt gentemot träningsvärk och tänkte dela med mig av mina tankar. Och i vanlig ordning så … Continue reading
Proteinkladdkaka
Inspiration i livet och till träning kan hämtas från många olika håll och människor. En av de människorna som inspirerar mig mycket är Annie Nilsson som nästa helg skall tävla i SM i Athletic Fitness. Hon har en härlig inställning till … Continue reading
Första eller sista dagen?
En väldigt viktig fråga och allt handlar om inställning. Är en vilodag avslutning på en träningsperiod eller början på en ny? Vilken approach gäller under en vilodag? Belöning för det som varit eller investering inför det som komma skall? Dag … Continue reading
Spider Curl & Potatismos
Gårdagens förkylningskänningar ville inte riktigt försvinna under natten och när jag vaknade kring 04.00 och skulle bege mig ut för en OMPU-runda så gav kroppen mig ett väldigt tydligt ”nej” inför den aktiviteten. Så det fick bli en grötfrukost och … Continue reading
Säsongsstart
Under kvällen igår så började jag få lite ”förkylningskänningar” i kroppen, dom går liksom inte att ta miste på när dom kommer lite smygandes och det gäller att alltid vara på sin vakt. En liten kvällsprom igår följdes av en … Continue reading
Struggle Weekend
Normalt så tränar jag aldrig båda helgdagarna utan minst en av dom är helt ledig och ibland, vid behov, så är båda helt lediga för att på så sätt åstadkomma en 72-timmarsvila. Men. Det är under normala förhållanden och det … Continue reading
Matlådefestival
När det kommer till dietmat så finns det mycket åsikter om hur ”tråkigt” det är med sådan mat och det tycker jag är lite ”tråkigt” att höra. Dietmat behöver inte vara torr kyckling med ris och broccoli eller tonfisk med … Continue reading
Mellanlandning
Struggle Camps tredje dag och det är en vilodag från gymet efter fyra raka pass. Och det var i vanlig ordning precis vad mina tankar kretsade kring under min morgonpromenad. Och under vilodagar från gym så bär jag heller ingen viktväst … Continue reading
Njutningsmarathon
Alla har vi olika synsätt på vad som krävs för att vi skall känna att vi njuter av någonting. Och jag har då förstås mitt synsätt. Jag har inga stora eller materiella krav på livet och försöker alltid finna njutningen i det … Continue reading
Priceless moments
Jag vet faktiskt inget svensk uttryck som beskriver vissa stunder på ett bättre sätt än det engelska ”Priceless Moments” och vissa stunder går inte ens att sätta ord på. Så varför ens försöka kan man undra? Ja, jag tänker inte … Continue reading
Lyrisk
Det sköna med träningslivet är nog alla ”Ups and Downs”. Man lär sig att uppskatta och leva med alla delarna inom träningslivet. Ibland så går allt som på räls och man trivs i ”flowet” och ibland så är allt ett … Continue reading
Försnack
När hela världens blickar riktas mot de Olympiska spelen i London och alla sport- och nyhetsreportrar är på plats där så pågår det större events här hemma i Sverige. Struggle Camp 2012 inleds idag och Strävan&Viljas reporter var förstås på plats där det … Continue reading
Summer Struggle Camp 2012
Semester. En fantastisk förmån i detta land, att få betald ledighet från sitt arbete. Något att vara väldigt ödmjukt tacksam över, då det verkligen inte är en förmån som alla människor på planeten har. I mitt fall så ligger det med start i morgon … Continue reading
Ny resa
Varje vecka är som en ny resa rätt ner i den fysiska kroppens fördärv. Samma visa vecka efter vecka. Så även denna vecka. Studsade upp i sängen imorse redo för morgonprom kl 04.00 och energin bara flödade i kroppen efter … Continue reading
