"Turn the switch on and break it" This is now written on the board in my Gain Cave.

He deserves so many more subscribers it’s crazy

[XxstuntkidXx]

The production quality of these videos are insane.

Great short documentary, just wanted to thank you for sharing your story. My inspiration is my wife. She is the reason why I am motivated everyday. Back in 2013 I weighed 335 and was able to lose 130 lbs to donate a kidney to my wife. She is my on switch everyday that gets me motivated to be the best person I can be. Best of luck to you.

Nick I'm in tears. My mom died suddenly when I was 17 from a heart attack. I look up to you so much as I'm currently in the army and struggling. Just know you're an inspiration to many to just keep pushing. Thank you Nick.

I remember racing with you in Florida! I was the dude in prosthetics. It as my first as well. Way to go man, loved this video...relieved that epic day! Thanks for doing this

[BigDfus]

I've always told myself, "What you take for granted is a miracle to someone else, so don't waste it."


Great video man and may your Mother rest in peace. Prayers to you and your family.

Hey Nick, just wanted to thank you, I’m not the fittest guy and I always thought that to be a runner you had to be super skinny but you’ve shown me that you can be big and still run. You’ve motivated me immensely in my training and you’re an amazing person

[aleksamarkovic]

Beyond me as to why/how people can dislike this man and his videos... class act.

[doobs]

Nick you should sit down and think about your “breaking the switch” ideology and try and really describe how that has worked for you and you can encourage others to “break the switch” in terms of goals and consistency. Could make a great book actually. “Breaking the switch” by Nick bare

I’ve never met you man but can’t explain how you motivate me to just become the best version of myself and not let things stand in my way. Im so glad I’ve found your channel. I really look forward to everything you post, Nick! Best of luck with the Boston training. Excited to follow your journey

[dumisanicakwebe]

I had to hold back a tear or two at the end when his dad spoke... This guy is a true champion! He's got all my respect

[RiseGymGear]

Amazing accomplishment Nick! It was a pleasure to follow you during the process and to produce this film. We can't wait to see what's next!

[JasonWittrock]

Bro I just wanna say I’m glad I had the chance to meet you. Where you are now compared to when I met you is inspiring. Much love and keep fighting

[craigwilson]

Where do I begin: within the last 24 hrs I just came across your channel for the first time ever. I’ve literally been watching your videos since 2 or 3am yesterday. I’m not a runner, nor am I anywhere near interested in doing any type of marathon. I love seeing your passion, drive, and never quit attitude. It’s truly inspiring, bro. I, too, am an Army Veteran. I wasn’t a Ranger or anything, but seeing a brother do what you do makes me proud. I am a businessman and I’m also trying to get back into shape. Your videos speak to me in a way that I need in my life right now. God Bless you, bro.

[MrSpadeofAce]

man, i got choked up... i can't imagine losing my mom.

[snapstring]

It’s was touching hearing about the Ironman dedication to your mother and hearing the remarks from other family members, but when your father talked about how proud he was of you; man I about lost it . That was impressive Nick as are you . 👍

[MarcFitt]

What a journey man! You are a true inspiration to so many including myself. I'm glad @Rise was able to capture this journey to picture even more how dedicated you are! Let's go man. #NeverStopDreaming #TeamRise

[RacetSmith]

Oh my god, I did the same race, 2019 ironman Florida! I am an ex-bodybuilder beginning my career in triathlon. Inspirational video, thank you for making this. I think i remember seeing you pass me a couple times on the course.

Hi Nick, I’m from the UK and I’ve been watching your videos since your Korea days. I don’t usually write comments on YouTube, but this video really moved me. I’m so sorry for your loss. But, turning that into something so positive - your Ironman, this amazingly put together video and putting a new meaning to ‘embracing the suck’ - you made your mother and everyone else around you proud. And as that’s the legacy she’s left behind on you, I hope you go on to inspire others to go and do the same.
