"Everybody says that they want to be elite.
But, they don’t want to do what the edge requires.
The edge marks the place where you make the decision to do the things the average guy won’t do.
Talent is a gift.
Elite is a choice.
Make the choice." @TimothyKight
Why lifting with your teammates matters:
“The culture and leadership and encouragement and the team bonding take steps and reps as well.”
