Notable Quotes

  • If you are always praising that same child in high school for winning all the time, what you need to do is create a situation where you learn to lose, and another kid might win.
  • The last thing I want is when a student leaves the gym is for them to associate it or workout with a chore. The gym should never be a chore.
  • The gym should be your happy place and if it’s not, you need to change something or figure out how to make it the best hour of the day.
