Heathens, warriors and all-round ne'er-do-wells, we promised we'd start doing more for you, a community of savages intent on unleashing their inner warrior and going berserk on their goals. The time has come to navigate your week with the same unrelenting purpose as our beardy ancestors crossing stormy seas. We're pleased to announce Weekly Waypoints - a weekly morsel of guidance, banter and a little motivation dropped into your inbox each week to keep you on the Viking path.
THE VEGVISIR (COMPASS)
Every week, the Vegvísir—our Viking compass—will help you chart your course. Each cardinal point represents a pillar of your journey, a reminder of what it takes to live as a modern warrior. Ignore its guidance at your peril. The aim is to ensure your sharpening your mind, body and spirit to remain battle-ready as well as us being able to keep you abreast of what's going on at HQ and in the community.
Our Vegvisir features four main cardinal points, The Banner, The Training Square, The Long Hall, The Skald's Tent, each direction crucial to being forged, not broken, by the crucible of life.
NORTH: THE BANNER
The Banner waves high as a rallying cry for the horde. Here lies the news, the values, the very essence of Steel Viking Fitness. It’s more than updates—it’s our mission, your call to arms, and a reminder of the strength we forge together.
The bindrune combines Othela representing the home, culture and Odin with Fehu the runic symbol for leadership.
EAST: THE TRAINING SQUARE
East is where savagery reigns. This is The Training Square, where we hone our blades and test our mettle. Expect no softness here—just brutal truths, exercises, and tips to destroy weakness and build unyielding strength. If you fear the iron, stay out of the square.
The Bindrune combines Raidho, focus and energy, with Uruz for strength.
SOUTH: THE LONG HALL
South is The Long Hall, where we feast like kings but remain ever-vigilant. Nutrition is fuel for battle, not an excuse for excess. Here, you’ll learn how to balance indulgence with discipline, embracing a Viking’s lust for life while keeping your physique worthy of Valhalla.
The Bindrune combines Perdhro, symbolising that we have freewill but therefore we must also place restrictions on ourselves and Wunjo, representing balance.
WEST: THE SKALD'S TENT
West takes you to The Skald’s Tent, where stories are told, and the spirit is forged. Mindset is everything, and here you’ll find the wisdom to build a courageous, unbreakable mind. Rest, recover, and rise stronger—this is the way of the true warrior.
The Bindrune combines Kenaz, the torch of knowledge, Ansuz, stability and order with Gebo for gift.
Together these cardinal points make the mighty Steel Viking Vegvisir which will form the basis of Weekly Waypoints, your map to glory. Read it, live it, and conquer the week ahead. Forward, heathens—your destiny awaits.
