Iraqi forces advancing on Tal Afar, one of the last ISIL strongholds - who thought "I know, I'll test the ammunition with a mallet"?

From beard to babyface - never have I hated something more Stopped halfway to debate whether it looked 1930s officer, or one of the village people #byebyebeard

Found this injured little guy on my bike ride tonight; so he is currently holed up in hedgehog field hospital (a log house in a box in my back garden) #medic #hedgehog #hedgehogsofinstagram

Note to self: they may have been your favourite boots years ago, but leaving them in the garage for three years doesn't mean they'll be ready to go! Only did four or so miles in them and ripped my heels up bad #armyissue #blistersonmyblisters #medic

Insoles: something you never think of until they're knackered and your feet start killing on the shortest of walks! Impressed the original @meindlboots #borneopro ones have lasted this long, but it's time for a swap! For something low volume but supportive and cushioned, go for the @grangersproofing #g10 #badmin #mountaineering #hillwalking

What a way to spend a Friday night - copious amounts of #deepfreeze bandaged up, and reading #clausewitz #onwar #tartan #shinsarekillingme

[norsemanfitness]

The reading list grows - my recommendations so far: The Art of War, and Clausewitz's On War #warstudies #wartheory #strategy #theartofwar #suntzu #johnkeegan #clausewitz

My intellectual purchase for the day 🤓 #theartofwar #suntzu #wartheory #philosophy

Bloody #peugeot electrics! 5 minutes out from the MOT centre and every brake warning light trips, handbrake fails, and the speedo shuts off

My non-stimulant pre-workout: -5g BCAAs -10g creatine -5g L-Glutamine Unless you're cycling your creatine too (which I recommend you do) then you can take this before every training session. Products labelled as a "pre-workout" contain stimulants such as caffeine to give you that boost, whereas this formula donates to the body's energy systems and sets your muscles up for an intense workout #preworkout #creatine #bcaa #gym #gymlife #gymmotivation #fit #fitfam #fitness #fitlife #bodybuilder #bodybuilding #fitnessmodel #model #pt #personaltraining #norsemanfitness #change2016 #motivation #myprotein #gainz #exercise #weightraining #training #muscle #strong #weights #aesthetic #personaltrainer (at Total Fitness)

One of my favourite bulking clean eats - sweet potato fries, honey and lemon chicken, and asparagus tips on the side!

Birch pendant necklace featuring the "Algiz" or "Yr" rune in Old Norse. Viking runes • Norse runes • Viking jewelry • Witch necklace • Pagan jewelry • Runic pendant • Wooden necklace • Runes Characteristics Algiz illustrates both the antlers of the elk, and the shape of the sedge-grass herb. To some it suggests the spread fingers of a hand raised in a protective gesture. It is a powerful rune of protection and, spiritually, it symbolizes reaching up to the divine. Algiz also represents success through endeavour in a search, quest, or other enterprise. Like the fast-growing pine tree, schemes will develop quickly. Like sharp sedge, you are protected from attack. Alertness and awareness will be your guide. Wisdom, vision and clarity of mind will aid your cause. Personal Interpretation Although the path ahead is fraught with danger, you need have no fear, for you have the power of protection within you. You will be safe as long as you are not reckless. Algiz indicates a favourable time for risky ventures, although all things must be built on firm foundations. Do not become complacent. All my items come wrapped and ready for gift giving. Let me know if you wish to add a note with yours! https://www.etsy.com/uk/shop/NorsemanWoodcrafts?ref=hdr_shop_menu #rune #pendant #etsy #etsyseller #norsemanwoodcrafts #birch #necklace #pagan #vikings #nordic #norse

After six weeks off due to health issues, it was great to get started on my first full training week back with my favourite day - BACK DAY!! New gear is always a great motivational tool too! I made the most of an offer on at @razorstorm and bagged this combo! Both products are of fantastic quality and fit when training or as casual wear #lats #backday #gymmotivation #fit #fitfam #fitness #fitlife #bodybuilder #bodybuilding #fitnessmodel #model #pt #personaltraining #norsemanfitness #change2016 #motivation #myprotein #gainz #exercise #weightraining #training #muscle #strong #weights #aesthetic #personaltrainer (at Total Fitness)
