A great blog post that was done by a good friend of mine. Make sure to give it a read. A lot of good stuff in here.
SELF-HARM IS VIRTUOUS:
"You’re probably frowning at the title – I shall elaborate. I am a man, created in the image and likeness of God. What did God’s only begotten son do? He chose to suffer the greatest of humiliations. Humility is a virtue, and that word is directly related to the word humiliation. When one humiliates themselves – when people harm themselves in order to grow, they do well. Show me one man, in this day and age, who will consent to throwing himself into a thorny bush in order to fight his concupiscence. I will consider him a friend and mentor, the moment I witness it. Let it be known that when I mention “modern men/women”, I am not speaking of those who are not Traditional Catholic, primarily. There are many men and women within our ranks who are evidently modern, either purposefully or out of simple ignorance. Effeminacy is rampant, and feminism just as much.
Delayed gratification – a lost art, a much needed science
Something that embodies this virtuous self-harm, for either sex, predominantly for men – is resistance training. Heavy weightlifting changes a man; it transforms his body and mind, for his betterment. It shows him several things – You cannot argue with a piece of equipment, you cannot talk your way out of the situation – you either can successfully complete the movement, or you can’t. It is a form of delayed gratification, a form of suffering with purpose. To a strong man, he knows that the barbell does not care what he thinks, and it will conquer his pride, to his gain. It builds character in ways that are easier experienced than explained. In this modern, globalized, pride celebrating, sexually charged, lust-driven, greed-driven, gluttony-ridden joke of a world, many grown men scoff at the virtue embedded within this type of delayed gratification. That kind of man is likely to maintain as much of a spiritual, mental, and emotional weakness as he does physical. JFK said “Physical fitness is not only one of the most important keys to a healthy body, it is the basis of dynamic and creative intellectual activity.” Men are designed to resist the perils of the world, to go out into it and take hits from all angles; to live as a sacrifice for their brethren, for their women and their children. Making one’s will and body stronger is a fine start for a man who understands the weakness of his flesh. Resistance training is for both sexes, however it is evident many Traditional women are disinterested, perhaps due to cultural misconceptions regarding the practice, perhaps due to them considering they do not require it, or perhaps it is pride. A woman needs a strong and healthy pelvic floor in order to give birth successfully; she does not need to be an olympian or to join a fitness facility attain such.
The vanity argument – intellectual laziness
Any Traditional Catholic with one functioning brain cell knows for a fact that when one’s physical assets are given glory, this is sinful, vain, prideful. At no stage will the author ever recommend bodybuilding; it is exactly that. At no stage will the author even recommend competitive powerlifting or olympic weightlifting, for it puts a human on a stage in little clothing, perpetuating immodesty and pride, with spectators who may cheer him on, as if it were some sort of true competitive sport. Naturally, those who excel in these domains are impressive; however, the culture, the atmosphere, and the communities are often at odds with the appropriate lifestyle of a Traditional Catholic. Just as our prayers are often said with some of the faithful, or alone in our rooms in sincerity to our Father in heaven, so too should our efforts to build our will and body be done alone, or at least with a few close friends maintaining similar aspirations – iron sharpening iron, as per the Holy Scriptures.

t needs no encouragement from without. This is referred to as an ‘endogenous personality’ (from a mix of the Greek and Latin, meaning ‘produced from within’). The endogenous personality is claimed to be an extreme form of introversion whereby a person is highly inwardly motivated. Psychology professor Bruce Charlton claimed the ordinary person’s motivations centre around the desire to fit in with the group they belong to (and gain status within the group), the accrual of resources and the gaining of sexual opportunities. In contrast, individuals with this endogenous personality type focus solely and obsessively on their ‘mission’, excluding many other aspects of a ‘typical’ life.
Modern men and women
What do most modern men and women do? They innovate, they create, they explore ways to reduce their sufferings. In their seeking more, often times they do more true harm than good. Most just slap their cards on point of sale machines and the deed is done. They’ve got a new lounge, they’ve got a new car, they’ve got a memory foam pillow. They’re happy for a little while, until they feel they’re suffering a bit too much – and they need something else to give them a sense of comfort. Modern men and women seek novelty. That is the key word, novelty. Something new, something that provides comfort, a superficial sense of security, an experience, something aesthetic, or just a simple interest. It’s like meeting a new person for the first time. One is seemingly interested, until they’re not. For men, it is often the quest of bedding women, finding himself status, money, or it may even just be the accumulation of goods most coveted by the world, like a new home, a new car, or a fridge that can play music. For modern women, it is more overtly material, such as with jewelry, clothing, shoes, their self-image – and it too is often sexual. They understand that on a primal level, their gift is what many men are driven by – this is why something such as fornication is rampant, and divorces are seen on a mass scale – even within Traditional Catholic communities, where they should never be seen, not even once. The primal infatuation wears off once the emotional brain is finally overtaken by the thinking brain – once all the red flags are ignored throughout courtship and engagement, and those men and women realize they just wanted each other, and never loved one another at all. Mainly because they jumped straight into a scum pond full of their own empty promises and lust.
All men are driven by two things – the desire for God, and the desire for a woman. Those who reject this truth find other ways to fill the void. These desires are wonderful things, but of course the enemy loves to pervert the natural order of things, for he cannot create, only usurp and hijack, waiting only on the consent of humans. Modern women don’t quite like that God is placed above them; for their pride is so great, they devise ways to make sure they are to be worshipped by the man. This is easily done, for modern men lack not only the musculature surrounding their spines, but often times their spines are entirely missing. So they place the creature above the Creator, and indulge that lie. At some stage in the lives of most men, this is sure to have happened on either a minor or a major scale. Think of Samson and Delilah. It was never about his hair as much as it was his unfortunate sexual surrender to the woman he knew to be seeking his ruin. His physical strength could not prevent him from falling in this manner, but in terms of his triumph, it did help him to fulfill his purpose; so of course the author must make it clear that having a strong body does not necessarily mean one’s will may remain just as strong.
Conclusion
Resistance training as a form of self-harm is virtuous – a moderate dose of pain helps one to resist greater instances of pain. It is a true form of innoculation; a true form of hormesis – a minor dose of something being beneficial, too much, detrimental. One ought to want to sweat now, that it might not hurt so much if one bleeds later. A s

trong body is only manufactured via a strong will. A strong will predisposes a man or woman to understanding the Catholic faith better, if purity of intent is sustained. Lean muscle has been empirically proven as an indicator of objective health. All have fallen short of the glory of God; if one has a stronger body, mind, and faith, when one inevitably falls, they shall find their bones protected by the lean muscle surrounding them, and by the will that helped them attain such strength. This is exactly what muscles are for – not for glorying in, but to protect your bones. No sane man or woman finds an overweight individual of the opposite sex physically attractive; just as no sane man or woman finds a malnourished, weak individual of the opposite sex physically attractive. Of course there are exceptions, as there are many other variables to be considered within the realm of physical and romantic attraction; but let us be realistic – if you do not honour your own body, how are you to honour the body of a spouse, or any other, at all? If you are mentally and physically weak, you should be angry about it, and you should have the courage to do something about it."

Very interesting post with a little bit of a different perspective than you’d be used to hearing. Basically puts “Traditional” Catholics who talk down on weightlifting straight back in their place.

"Liberalism of every degree and all forms has been formally condemned; so much so (53) that outside of the motives of its intrinsic malice, it stands under the formal ban of the Church, which is sufficient for all faithful Catholics. It would be impossible for an error so widespread and so radical to escape condemnation.
Upon its appearance in France at the time of the Revolution, the famous Declaration of the Rights of Man, which contains in germ all the follies of Liberalism, was condemned by Pius VI. Later the baneful doctrine infected all the countries of Europe. In Spain it first took the name of Liberalism, under which it has since been known everywhere."

Go out and lift, pray, eat healthy, read, learn new skills, acquire more practical knowledge. Stop being a weak and pathetic little coward like so many “Traditional” Catholics today. Become who you are meant to be and what God made you to be. Stop living in fear about what everyone around you thinks when most of them have no idea where they’re really going. Live your life according to the Holy Scriptures and you should have nothing to fear other than God and His Wrath.
Always keep the heroic actions of your ancestors in the back of your mind. How can we move forward if we don’t always have a clear knowledge of the past and what it means for us presently and for the future.
This is exactly why you don’t let married women with children work. I’m sure many of you can relate to this but when my mum, who is working full time in an office comes home to a mess, has to clean up the house, and do other erins, she becomes furious, stressed and angry for the rest of the night. That is why they take anti depressants. Being introspective is too much effort for them. So is prayer and going to church.
At the end of the day, sins such as anger and neglecting their duties become their modus operandi. What effect does this have on the children then? Well, since the children are neglected by their parents and they only see them angry, upset, stressed, and complaining all the time, etc. they copy them.

To cope with this, the children will then go on to become degenerates and look to their bratty friends with working mums and “influencers” to follow instead of their father and real positive influences. To sum it up, letting your wife work is a recipe for disaster. Don’t do it. Don’t put your kids in the public school system either. Even private schools are just as bad. I mean, unless you want them to be around bad influences every day, who on behalf of the neglect of their parents, made their kids into self-righteous degenerate brats in the first place.
Do not date any woman who wants to “pursue her career” and work while she’s married and has kids as well. We are living in an age of mass decay. White people are not having children anymore and not getting married as much because of hook-up culture. Don’t be like everybody else in this hellish melting pot. Have white babies, homeschool your children, become what you are.

This becomes even worse when you have a lot of pets too. If you’re gonna get a pet for your family, get a dog. That’s all you need. Your house isn’t a zoo.

For both sexes it’s always "since the 80’, since the 70’s, since the 90s” blah blah blah. Do you notice a pattern? None of this existed before the 70s, I wonder why 🧐
Definitely not because of the Jews or anything crazy like that! Don’t be a conspiracy theorist!!

For women who don’t realise this shit before they’ve finished high school or college 🙄 it’s so over. A 10 minute scroll through Tik tok makes this clear as day. Maybe even a walk outside, who knows. Whatever floats your boat.
