Guard Training With Soreness.

Squash ball, 1999. (squash ball)

An athlete is confident that what they hope for grows in training.

Athletes do difficult things so much it becomes easy, participants do easy things so much they’re just burning calories.

Athletes do not need freedom of speech, they need freedom of movement.

An anxious athlete has too many choices.

Participants understand athleticism so poorly, that they do not even understand that only playing the sport is not athleticism in any sense of the word.

FeaturedHurricane Irma

Dedicated to an old and stoic friend, Tim Rowbottom.

A gym, sports ground, or recreation centre is not adorned by trophies or pennants, but by the virtue of those whom move humanely within it.

They who exercise wisely, exercise optimally.

To be uneducated is to experience misfortune. To begin ones education is to make the attempt. To be accepting of oneself and others shows that ones education is Complete.
