The more you're obsessed by something, the better chance you have of achieving it.

Being weak is a choice, so is being strong.

In those days, I did what was necessary for me to win. This included training with heavy weights: a precursor for injury. So if I could do it over again I’d train with lighter weights, higher reps, no sets below 10 reps, with negatives slower than positives, and avoid injury. If I had done that, my physique wouldn’t have been quite as bulky, but with more definition and with less pain.

Continuity is how you build a physique.

Live your life by the hour, not by the day. What will you achieve in the next hour?

To me, Sri Chinmoy is a source of higher power and an uplifting example of right attitude. He understands the human impulse to transcend one's present limited state of being, and his life exemplifies this.

So, knowing what you know now, if you had the chance to go back to, say, ’68, ’70, would you do things differently?
