Getting your muscles to do the work is hard enough, but the most difficult aspect of training is mental: the attitude it takes to get those last few sets and reps.

There was never a genius without a tincture of madness. Aristotle

Hell is a giant banquet room with tables filled with every possible good thing to eat and drink. The people are all seated at the banquet tables, but they are all starving, emaciated, skin on skeleton figures. They are chained in such a way that they can reach out and pick up the food, but the chains prevent them from bringing the food to their mouth.In the ultimate cruelty, they are dying of starvation with food in their hands. Surprisingly, the Heaven is also a giant banquet room with tables filled with all the same, wonderful, choices as before. And just as before, the people are all chained so that they can pick up the food, but can't bring it to their mouth. However, in this banquet room, the people are all healthy. They are laughing, singing and enjoying themselves. The difference? In Heaven, they have realized that although they cannot feed themselves, the chains allow them to feed each other. Ancient Persian legend

Cogito, ergo sum. Translation: I think, therefore I am. Rene Descartes

Few people are capable of expressing with equanimity opinions which differ from the prejudices of their social environment. Most people are even incapable of forming such opinions. -- Albert Einstein



Most people rust out due to lack of challenge. Few people rust out due to overuse
Dogs are the ultimate Buddha beasts; they sleep when they're tired, eat when they're hungry, and are completely nonjudgmental. We should learn from them. Get rid of your watch on weekends and live like a dog.

"Those who say it can't be done shouldn't interrupt those who are doing it."


"When the Iron doesn't want to come off the mat, it's the kindest thing it can do for you. If it flew up and went through the ceiling, it wouldn't teach you anything. That's the way the Iron talks to you. It tells you that the material you work with is that which you will come to resemble."

And major action will certainly make you feel a bit uncomfortable, which is absolutely fine. You've gotta get excited about feeling uncomfortable, you've gotta love feeling slightly uncomfortable, because you know that you're stepping outside the boundaries that you used to create.

Pain is temporary. It may last a minute, or an hour, or a day, or a year, but eventually it will subside and something else will take its place. If I quit, however, it lasts forever. - Lance Armstrong

"Imperfection is beauty. Madness is genius. And it's better to be absolutely ridiculous than absolutely boring. And when it comes down to it, I let them think what they want. If they care enough to bother with what I do, then I'm already better than them."


"Do what you feel in your heart is right, for you will be critized anyways"

"Ignore the ramblings of the ignorant, and step on or over their crumpled bodies as you make your way to the top of the mountain. Eat upon their flesh for fuel and through your determination and will, banish them to obscurity and a life of complacency and self righteousness that is the hell in which they live." Richard Safreed

"oral sex should be in the olympics... Why!... because its harder than curling and if your good at it you deserve a medal"- lewis black

"People lose sight of progress when they just start hammering away at shit and screwing stuff... wait, that didn't sound right."- John Berardi

"Rust on a nail builds tetanus. Rust on a barbell builds character, strength, and attitude."- Eric Cressey

"The Iron is the best antidepressant I have ever found. There is no better way to fight weakness than with strength. Once the mind and body have been awakened to their true potential, it's impossible to turn back."

"The road to success is dotted with many tempting parking spaces." --Unknown

"To give anything less than your best is to sacrifice the gift."

-Steve Prefontaine

"Yes I know my enemies. They're the teachers who taught me to fight me, compromise, conformity, assimilation, submission, ignorance, hypocrisy, brutality, the elite, all of which are American dreams."

Accept the challenges so that you can feel the exhilaration of victory. - George S. Patton
