WALKING THE PATH OF MIZRA: the metamorphosis of a man.

summoning the strength of self reliance and absolute control.

To become stronger you must do more than lift weights. you must do more than eat right. you must chisel all facets of your lifestyle into a “monument of power”. it is unspoken but well regarded that an increase in physical appearance bleeds into every other corner of your life. Over time you will watch how people treat you different. They approach you, address you, mention you, look at you, and move around you differently. Its hard to notice at first but your third eye will open and you'll witness what I speak of. I have never met a man who started lifting weights seriously and had all other parts of his life crumble. The key to any lasting monument is a well constructed foundation. If you build your temple hastily on wet dirt it will sink in time. If your temple is constructed on a strong foundation it will withstand all the elements and storms of life. The beauty of weightlifting is how it starts as a vanity boost and transcends into a lifestyle overhaul. 

are you ready to take communion? I am about to take you to church on this post.

As you you create new goals and smash them over and over again you are training your mind to focus on destroying adversity. Its an exciting process that one cannot fight. Once you have drank from the Chalice Of Iron your thirst will never be quenched. It will always desire more. You will never be content with where you are. You always want 5 more lbs, one more rep, one more set, one work out. You become hungry like the Killer Wolf of Danzig.

choose your spirit animal. sorry ladies you only get one option in this photo. but that is a pretty sweet choice for an Alpha Female.

So when you are far enough along in your path you will naturally begin looking past the weight room for gains. This is when the instinct kicks in and life gains begin to form. You will improve at your job. Or say “fuck this job” and seek better employment with better pay that you believe you deserve. You will create better friendships, improve old ones. You will be seen as a person who can be held accountable and in such be given opportunities to prove this true. You may want to go back to school. You may want to be better at school. You will seek higher education in any form. You will become financially responsible. You will not be intimidated by others. You will visually be able to seek out the meek and know how to push them away or guide them (which ever path you see fit). You will instantly bond with people of stronger intellect and stronger lifestyles. Their presence will improve your mindset. These are all things that have happen to me over time. From my lifting journey and also from my experience in the US Army Infantry. 

As an Alpha there are traits that the public expect of you.

The term Alpha Male has really been tarnished by the modern feminist movement. Identifying yourself as an outspoken Alpha male rubs most people the wrong way. They assume you are a sex crazed, selfish, self-absorbed, “master” who demands things and uses intimidation to get whatever you want. You treat women as objects and treat people as stepping stones. THIS IS FALSE. There are Alphas who are like this. They are the fucking worse. They are everywhere and are always the loudest of the bunch. Afraid of competition so they intimidate.

They have esteem issues and bizarre hang ups. They are raised on garbage television and bro culture. They are raised on low expectations and fed this bullshit of the social media generation of instant gratification. They are under educated and they are acting out the part of some concept of what an Alpha male is. I blame almost all of this on the rise in popularity of MMA culture in the last 15 years (see that shithead Warhammer who beat his porn star girlfriend within literal inches of her life and anyone who non-ironically wears Tapout/Afflicition/Ed Hardy clothing) and the resurgence of radical feminism pushed on us by Hollywood and major media outlets. Making you feel guilty that you are a man.

If you identify yourself as an Alpha male then that kind of backlash comes with the territory. But this is where we come in a re-define the term Alpha. We take it back from those that have corrupted the title. We will not apologize and if outsiders still disregard us as macho assholes. let them live. It doesn't concern your circle. we lead from the front. we speak with actions, not words, to show others what we are. 

bring forth all non-believers. show your face. are you afraid of what you see? are you afraid of what you THINK you know?

As a brother (or sister) in this Coven of Black Metal Fitness there are Alpha traits you will uphold. There are no exceptions to this. If you break any of these then you are in the wrong lifestyle. Go home and look up another label on a website to identify yourself with.

AS AN ALPHA MALE:

You will protect what is yours.

You will protect your family, friends, kids, lovers, co-workers, peers etc.. from physical harm. You will protect them from outsiders who are poisonous the the pack. They will see your sincerity from the actions you take to improve their lives and they will reciprocate. If they do not reciprocate then they are a leech on your well-being and should be removed from your circle.

You will provide for those you love.

It is your duty to work as hard as possible at all times to give your pack a financially stable life. To given them a positive environment to learn, grow, relax, and live. Even if you have to walk into the wood line to strangle a deer with your own hands in the heart of winter so they may eat. This is what you will do. You must always ask yourself “how can I better myself so that my pack may be better”? Provide food, shelter, clothing, love, appreciation, and positive mindset.

You will lead those who seek counsel.

You will not idle at anytime. You must push forward. Life is hard. Things happen. You get knocked down. You get fired. You get defeated. You loose. If I may quote Rocky “Its not how hard you hit. Its how you get hit and keep moving forward.” pick your head up. Stop feeling sorry for yourself. Quit looking for fucking handouts. No one is going to improve your situation better than you. You can wait for someone to come hold your hand and help you. If that person shows then good. If that person never shows then your wasted your entire existence waiting for a god who was never there. You have been played the fool. Mitigate this by walking the path. Being in the front to experience everything. Be the first to see hardship, be the first to see success. Being in the front forces you to learn. Forces you to react. Always stronger or better prepared for the next battle.

BRING ME THE HEAD OF FALSE ALPHAS.

when say pack it can be anything you deem worthy, Example: group of guy friends, your wife and child, your parents, your blood brother, or even yourself.

When I say circle it means those who have all and all access, VIP, backstage, sound check, meet n greet privileges to your existence. Usually this is your family that you have started. But it can also be just yourself because you have not met the proper mate yet. You have no found a worthy partner.

Worthy. A word that radical feminists think is disgusting. Fuck that, YOU ARE WORTHY. You are your own god. You decided who is worthy of your companionship, your effort, your strength, your life. Worth is not some male privilege bullshit. Its what a human being with confidence excepts. You except the best because you want the best. You know you will provide the best. You do not want your efforts wasted on someone who has no investment in you. 

did you know you are a real life video game?

THIN THE HERD.

This lifestyle is not for the weak. It forces your to be cold blooded. Its kill of be killed in nature men. You have to make tough decisions sometimes. You cannot be afraid or hesitate to THIN THE HERD. Kill off the deserters, stragglers, thieves, and poisons.

Observe and record this mission statement. Apply it to all angles of your observable Universe. Check yourself when you are straying. It happens. No one is perfect. Don't be afraid to ask for help. Don't be afraid to fail. Don't get scared. If you do get scared don't let em see it. Maintain your stance and composure. Dig deep and give them hell. Make them regret the day they crossed you and your pack.

We all get lost now and then. If you find yourself wandering off the path of the Alpha then pull out this map and re shoot your azimuth on your life compass, and get back on track. Its not how you start, its how you finish.

And above all stay humble. Know that nature is deadly. Respect the elements of the world. Know that at anytime something can kill you. Know who your predators are and avoid them. Do not kill or confront anything that is not necessary for survival. Because life is survival. That's really all it is. We are all just trying to get to the next day. Predators are out there. Adapt accordingly and adjust as needed. Your Predator may be your own breed, it may be something like a wolf that feels threatened or something unseen like a pack of ticks on your back slowly sucking your lifes blood away and you don't feel the pain until its too late. I mean all of this both literally and figuratively.

SIDE NOTE: MIZRA is the name of my new musical project. stay tuned for audio in the next month.

The title of this post refers to the name explorer Sir Richard Francis Burton used on his Hadji (journey) to Mecca. He is not the first non-Muslim to gain access inside but is the first to detail and document his entire expirence. He spent years mastering Arabic and Muslim languages and customs to infiltrate Mecca posing as a Pashtun muslim. He stayed digusied the entire time never showing his skin or face using the name Mizra. He is the living embodiment of my entire mind set. there is no greater story better than a stranger sneaking his way into a holy site and essentially desecrating it with his mere prescence by being a white european male. he poisioned the shrine. destroying the purity from the inside-out. MY SPIRIT ANIMAL.
