Extended Standing Leg Stretch Utthita Hasta Padangusthasana
One of the biggest myths about...
To be perfectly honest, I LOVED this commercial (and it totally brought me to tears).
It’s refreshing to see the ‘start’ of someone’s journey instead of the end and I was fist pumping long after it aired. Anyone who’s ever had to overcome obstacles to get to where they want to be knows what it’s like when it’s ‘hard’. When you’re not the ‘fastest’. When every step feels like a mile. I think a lot of people can relate to this ad, and it’s a refreshing break from Nike’s usual fitspo.
But some are questioning whether or not Nike is exploiting Nathan (the 12 year old in the ad) and there’s been a fair share of trolls making fat shaming comments on YouTube (adults making fun of a 12 year old. Well done assholes). I guess it’s how you choose to see it that really matters.
I just love Nathan. I think he’s ‘great’. I choose to see this ad as motivational and inspiring. :)
Thoughts? Love the ad? Hate the ad?

I personally love the ad, I found it so inspiring the first times I saw it - I had no idea people were making fun of this kid, that is the worst kind of shame ALL of us should feel as a society - every damn one of us has/is there at sometime and most don’t do a damn thing…

Exploitation because adults are making fun of him? That’s not what exploitation is. Making fun of a fat person trying their fucking hardest and showing the world anyone can do anything isn’t exploitation, it’s being a douche.

LOVED IT. Nike hit it out of the park. The message: ‘you’re never too ANYTHING to DO ANYTHING’. Perfection.
