| Do or do not. There is no 'try'.  | memorable phrases from your mentors My Dad used to say: "Practice make permanent."  ie. it doesn't make perfect unless you practise perfect form. When I did my marathon I wrote the word "FORM" on my arm to keep me focused. I try to bring the same approach to lifting. Any of you got any good training "mantras"??

| Re: memorable phrases from your mentors win if you can loose if you must but always cheat. the weak accept what they have to accept the strong do what they have the power to do if your not living on the edge your taking up to much room. if you cant run with the big dogs, dont pi$$ up the tall tree's more sweat in training less blood in battle.
