Louie Simmons once told me: "The greatest respect you can earn is self respect."
And that is why we do what we do.

I knew that I was going to have to start working outside of the current conservative training laws. If I was going to break records, I'd have to rejoin the outlaws. I didn't have to do anything illegal, just clear my mind of the clutter and take off the "corrective" emergency brake that was holding me back. I'd have to remember who I was before the Internet and a bunch of people who'd never lifted jack told me that squats are bad and the Swiss Ball would set me free.

"It’s always easier to tear others down than it is to build yourself up, and easier to demand respect than to earn it. Of course, the easy way isn’t always the best way."
