Jim Caiafa-“Fury before theory everyday of the week and twice on Sunday”-The ‘back arms’ guy via Josh Bryant
Courtney Gould-Don’t doubt yourself or your abilities
Dan Petkovsek-Stop thinking, start lifting
Dan Baseley-Be consistent. And that spiel in the BIG Seminar when Jim Wendley says, “If you want to go to Chicago, just get in the car and drive.” Both really important.
Pat Crowley-Form, balance, consistency
Steven Vinet-Rip that sh*t
Eric Hess-Leave that gym, you’re getting ripped off
Bear Johnson-Don’t f*ck this up
Mark Harrington-Leave your ego at the door
Chip Manuel-Be patient

Ryan Brown-From Milo of Greece whose daily diet allegedly consisted of 20 lbs of meat, 20 lbs of bread and 18 pints of wine. He once carried a 4 year-old bull on his shoulders before slaughtering, roasting and devouring it in one day. He was said to have achieved the feat of lifting the bull by starting in childhood, lifting and carrying a newborn calf and repeating the feat daily as it grew to maturity. So I guess it is easy, be simple and consistent. Eat a lot and drink 18 pints of wine a day.

Ross Bowsher-Everything works just not forever

Matt Ryan Brown-Teach intensity first. Intensity is effort and work ethic.
Marshall Roy-Measure strength gains in months and years, not days and weeks.
