I was going to go for the Mr. Universe title; I was going to break records in power lifting; I was going to Hollywood; I was going to be like Reg Park.

I was coming home with a big smile. I told her that I was training, and she could see I found joy in becoming stronger.”

“It always seemed to me that the biggest obstacle to successful training is that the body adjusts so quickly.

The way to wake up the muscle and make it grow again is to jolt it with the message “You will never know what’s coming. It will always be different from what you expect. Today it’s this, tomorrow it’s something else.” One day it’s ultra-heavy weights; the next day high reps.”

Total Recall

Total Recall

“Life is richer when we embrace the multitudes we all contain, even if we aren't consistent and what we do doesn't always make sense, even to us.”

Total Recall

“Love stories are built around people's idiosyncrasies.”

Total Recall
