Strength is an excellent example of a physical characteristic that drives improvement in other athletic parameters. More strength means more power, more endurance, better coordination, and better everything else. This is why, all other things being equal, the stronger athlete is the better athlete.

There is simply no other exercise, and certainly no machine, that produces the level ofmuscular stimulation and growththan the correctly performed full squat.

There is no substitute for milk. Sorry.

If you are so inflamed that you can't train, and ibuprofen and fish oil help with inflammation, maybe you'd better take the ibuprofen and fish oil.

There are no shortcuts. The fact that a shortcut is important to you means that you are a pussy.

Mediocre athletes that tried like hell to get good are the best coaches.

But then again, those who argue against squatting and deadlifting on the same day may just be pussies.
