Aika hiljaista on ollut Fankhouserin leirissä.
Onkohan mies lopettanut kisaamisen kokonaan?

Näin vaikuttaisi olevan.

Pushed to the limit with everything done that could have been done. I was on stage with no regrets. I did all I could have done. I put every ounce of energy, every moment of time into one common goal, and when I stepped on stage the sky started to fall.

I started to question my actions and why I spent all this valuable time and energy on competing. I had a bitter taste in my mouth my last show. I wanted nothing to do with competing and nothing to do with training. This is the first time in my life I turned my back on training. I felt depressed and needed some changes in my life. I was at a crossroad and needed new direction, new purpose. I needed to change things up and get away from what I loved to do. I don't know if it was because I worked at a gym or what, but I just needed time away.

I started the change with my job. I when back to school and took classes to become an underground coal miner, the foundation upon which my local community in West Virginia was built. It was totally different from anything I had ever done in my life. I started working tons of hours to fill the void that was left. At first, I did not know what the void was that I was trying to fill, but I began to find out that it wasn’t possible to fill it with more labor and more hours alone. It had been about three months since I had trained and I started to feel lost. I have always said that I am my maker but I was not making or being the man I wanted to be. I knew that this was not me. Something was missing. I needed to train again.

Sometimes in life, you make changes for the wrong reasons. It may take you a little while, but you eventually will get back to what makes up your inner being, what drives you as a man. Training is what makes me one with myself. I know who I am when I train. I am at home—in the gym, in my own skin. Once I started training again I stopped feeling so down and started coming back to life. I was my maker again. And I realized what made me so mad was the thing that made me who I am. I think I put way too much time into one show and that, in turn, made me temporarily grow tired of something I always loved so much.

Now that I am back to training again, I only train for the right reasons. I train for me. I train because I desire the feel of the cold iron in my hands. I desire the soreness I bear for days. I desire training for the hard work it takes and the way it makes me feel on the inside. I realized that being your maker is not just forcing yourself to do things because it is right. Being your maker is knowing what you need in life and not what others think you need. I am my maker. I have finally been made what I’m meant to be.

Tuosta nyt jäi epäselväksi se, että kun sanoi että lopetti ja tuli takaisin treenien pariin. Niin onko kyseessä nyt pelkkä treenaus vai ihan back to kehonrakennus?
 
House tekemässä paluuta!

"It's been too long. Sometimes life will take you on some detours. Some of these detours turnout being better than the actual route normally traveled. Life is full of choices and each choice we make will take us in a different direction, but sometimes in life no matter what choice you make it will continue to bring you back on the road you are destine to travel. Three years ago I chose a path that would lead me away from training.Taking this path was a choice I had to make for myself and my family. I needed to focus on my house and not the house. The time I spent away from training made me understand that I needed training. I needed the iron. I tried to suppress the iron but it would always come out in me. Training is a huge part of me and I am glad to be back at it. I am not going to lie I am not in great shape but I am going to be back I am going to give it a run. I am going to flip "The House" nice and slow. lets see where this goes my Animal brothers lets do this together. I am excited and glad to be back with my Animal family."
