The last three or four reps is what makes the muscle grow. This area of pain divides the champion from someone else who is not a champion. That's what most people lack, having the guts to go on and just say they'll go through the pain no matter what happens.
I always think about Arnold saying this when I'm at the end of a tough set, and it always seems to motivate me well

Glad you started this thread, I've been wanting to for a long time now. Here are some of my favs:
"**** pain, drink whey" - Me
"Intensity builds immensity" - Kevin Levrone
"Shut the **** up and train" - Animal ads
"Go hard/heavy or go home" - Anonymous
"LIGHT WEIGHT!" - Ronnie Coleman
"Beware the battle cry of the gym pussy: 'I dont want to be big, I just want to get toned!'" - Big Red
Down the road, in a gym far away
A young man was heard to say
"No matter what I do, my legs won't grow!"
He tried leg extensions, leg curls, leg presses too
Trying to cheat, these sissy workouts he'd do!
From the corner of the gym where the big guys train
Through a cloud of chalk and the midst of pain
Where the big iron rides high, and threatens lives
Where the noise is made with big forty-fives
A deep voice bellowed as he wrapped his knees
A very big man with legs like trees
Laughing as he snatched another plate from the stack
Chalked his hands and monstrous back
Said, "Boy, stop lying and don't say you've forgotten!
Trouble with you is you ain't been SQUATTIN'!"
- Jeff "MADDOG" Madden
"You're gonna have to go through hell, worse than any nightmare you've ever dreamed. But when it's over, I know you'll be the one standing. You know what you have to do. DO IT!"
-Duke (Tony Burton), Rocky IV
I have a few other ones that I have to look up. I'll post those later.Keep punishin'

"You need to focus on compound lifts. The big 3: Bench, squat and deadlift. These are the real mass builders. Being an ectomorph, you'll greatly benefit from the extra testosterone and IGF-1 hormone that these movements release. Keep at it, and GOODLUCK!"

To give less than your best is to sacrafice the gift.
Somebody may beat me, but they are going to have to bleed to do it.
What I want is to be number one.
You have to wonder at times what you're doing out there. Over the years, I've given myself a thousand reasons to keep running, but it always comes back to where it started. It comes down to self-satisfaction and a sense of achievement.
Success isn't how far you got, but the distance you traveled from where you started.
Don't be afraid to give up the good to go for the great
-Steve Prefontaine (all)
Carrying these quotes in the back of my head make me never want to quit.

It is as satisfying to me as cumming is. You know -- as having sex with a woman and cumming. So can you believe how much I am in heaven? I am, like, getting the feeling of cumming in the gym, I'm getting the feeling of cumming at home, I'm getting the feeling of cumming backstage when I pump up. When I pose out in front of five thousand people, I get the same feeling, so I am cumming day and night.
Can't beat the Arnold quote tbh.

quotes
bodybuilding is my religion, the gym is my church.
the pain you feel today is the strength you'll feel tomorrow
success comes to those aren't afraid of failure
i'll do what he won't today, so i'll do what he can't tomorrow
success is the only option, failures not.
no pain, no gain
right now someone out there is getting bigger, make that person you
stop dreaming and turn your dreams into reality
excuses wont get you any bigger
rome wasnt built in a day
success will come one day, until then i'll make every single rep count
i'll prove the haters wrong
youve put blood sweat and tears into this, after all these years, every set and rep that you pushed your hardest. Dont give up nowLast edited by ken9; 12-25-2011 at 11:35 PM. Reason: mistakes were made
