WHAT YOU ARE ABOUT TO READ IS ME WITH MY FILTER COMPLETELY SHUT DOWN. IF I OFFEND ANYONE, TOO BAD. MAYBE YOU NEEDED TO BE OFFENDED!
for the past 7 years i have lifted rocks, pulled trucks, pressed logs and generally put myself through pain and torture. for what? a couple trophies, t-shirts, a few sample supplements....for a pro-card? get real, i am not a beast. glory and fame? haha....
i do this because i love it. ever since i picked up my first stone i knew i would do this till they carted me off drooling and broken. i make no money at this, heck i lose money, but i keep going at it. strongman defines me and shapes me, literally into who i am and want to be. i have faced my darkest demons and won a few times sometimes it is a draw. do i quit? never....
i have seen them come and go in the past 7 years...you know the next world's strongest man. arrogant, full of themselves, and cock strong. win a few times but can't hang when the crap spatters off the fan. i have also seen enough of the "i just want to try" crowd to fill a stadium...ok maybe a clown car. cuz really they are clowns.
to quote my favorite lil green guy "do or do not there is no try." yes give it a shot, but one time lifting a stone does not make you a strongman. what makes you a strongman is when it is the last stone, you are exhausted and your pride is on the line. you won't win the competition but you won't let this rock beat you.
know it alls....oh yeah love them. can't tell them squat about anything, even if you are trying to help them avoid getting hurt by correcting their form. how bout the ones that only see things from their perspective, your opinion doesn't matter. hell your experience doesn't count. how long do you have a battle of wits with an unarmed opponent? time to walk away and let the idiots fall...
