YOU ARE BURDENED WITH GLORIOUS PURPOSE
The title is a very true sentiment. The mere notion that you are willing to set yourself apart from the norms of society and achieve a heroic level of strength is to be commended. Take a few moments and look around, outside of the strength world, & you will see that because you chase lofty and honorable goals of strength makes you unique among all others. A very few people will ever have the fortitude to accomplish the glorious might that you have. Remember when you were a child & the older men and women told resplendent stories of some of the strongest & mightiest individuals in your family’s history. YOU ARE NOW THAT PERSON! The erudite choice you have made to learn & become a person of noble strength is that of legend!
You are the person future generations will mention in the same breath as Samson & Hercules! The Feats of Strength you accomplish by crushing USAWA records will be shared for generations to come.
When you set USAWA & IAWA records you are now embracing Legendary Status!
YOU ARE NOW BURDENED WITH GLORIOUS PURPOSE OF STRENGTH!
Go forward and set a multitude of magnificent records!
