I was recently listening to one of my favorite songs of all time, its by Flaw titled "My letter" this song for me holds true to many people that are now out of my life completely. In this song tho there are many points that relate to us, the bodybuilder or powerlifter, basically anyone who goes to the gym with more purpose than just loosing a few pounds. "we starte following a certain description, we started stuff and failed, before there wasn’t any need for an answer, things were much different" This song then goes into talking about others question who you are inside and how you feel about them. Let me point out this is relievent to my last blog which was about a bb.com’r, not the Iron Chamber Gym as my friend, the founder of ICG believed. The men at the Chamber bust their ass’s every workout and there is no such thing as a off day, Jeff you have my utmost respect and I thank you for offering and wanting me to be a part of what you have built and lead. Anyway back to "my letter" The above quote for me is the exact way I became who I am in the gym today. I started off following what others had told me not knowing which way to go with it, I just wanted to get stronger but didn’t have a vision of what I wanted to become, I enjoyed training, it was simple…. now a days, I LOVE IT, I have vision and the path I am currently on is one I discovered along the way. Im fueled by my past, driven by what I want in the future and kept on stable level ground by those I choose to associate with regularly bc they are true friends. While most of my writings are very intense and honestly some have been painful and hard for me to even write, I do have a softer side… But there is a time and place for that stuff, the gym, my training, my body deserves more than a soft approach, it deserves intensity, that is why I write what I write and do what I do. STRENGTH & HONOR to all.
