    For pull-ups: You will get stronger and be able to do them a lot sooner jumping up and doing negative reps instead of just relying on the assisted machine. I am now up to four when I was never able do do a single pull-up. Woot woot!

    Winter is not an excuse to stop riding, it's just a matter of having the right equipment.

    That, plus, you can excuses or you can have results but you can't have both.

    It took years to put it on, it won't be gone overnight.

    So many times we lose sight of that.....wanting results right now, getting bummed when we don't see much movement very fast. We have to remember it's not a quick fix.

    It won't happen in one day. For me it was a very good advice since I'm impatient :laugh:.

    We must train from the inside out using our strengths to attack and nullify any weaknesses. It’s not about denying a weakness may exist but about denying its right to persist.

    “No citizen has a right to be an amateur in the matter of physical training…what a disgrace it is for a man to grow old without ever seeing the beauty and strength of which his body is capable.”
