I always go heavy and I always go to failure.

The harder you work and the more you sear and bleed for a win, the sweeter that victory tastes.

I learned from a very young age that no one owes you anything and nobody's gonna give you a damn thing. But you can have anything you want, if you work hard enough for it.

I always go heavy and I always go to failure. Even when I tell myself I'm gonna go easy, once I get to the gym and start working, I never end up going easy. I hate leaving the floor feeling like I could have done more weight or more reps. I just love working out and going further than I ever did before.

You wanna be big, you lift big weights. You wanna be little, you lift little weights.

I think that strength levels go hand in hand with building a great physique. You've got to lift heavy weight to get big - period.

When I was 18 years old I knew pretty much what I wanted to do in life. When I was 18 I knew I wanted to be a pro bodybuilder.
