Welcome to the Book of Brodin WikiEdit

A collection of works of the Swolefather, Brodin, Broseidon, Bropollo, Brosiris, and his brophets into a Brodinist-editable form such that it may please the Swolefather.

The Book of Brodin welcomes your contributions and seeks assistance of volunteer editors to maintain this great work.

Editing RulesEdit

  1. Additions are welcome. Put new scripture in "To-be-oganized Scripture"
  2. Changes to existing text must meet a high standard or it will be undone. If you aren't sure, suggest your change on the "Talk" page.

The Book of Brodin OverviewEdit

A collection of the works of the Swole Gods to spread the swolosophy of Brodinism. A disciple of Brodin shall always adhere to and practice the holy tri-cepts of the Swole, also known as The Swoley Trinity:

  1. Swole of the Body
  2. Swole of the Spirit
  3. Swole of the Mind

Brodin gifts us with the Swole of the Body when we worship him at the Iron Temples and present penance of the plates. But he only gifts the Swole to those that believe in the Swole. It is thus necessary to maintain the Swole of the Spirit; the constant and unwavering desire to improve ourselves in the eyes of Brodin.

However, the Swole of the Body and the swole of Spirit may lead us to become corrupted and fall from the grace of Brodin. Swoletan desires for us to abuse Brodin's gifts and become muscle-bound idiots, uneducated heathens that lose sight of the essence of the Swole. It is necessary to practice the Swole of the Mind to prevent ourselves from falling from the grace of Brodin by succumbing to the plague of corrupted Swole and becoming a member of Swoletan's Mindless Swole.

Go forth my brethren and may Brodin bless you in your journey to ultimate Swole.

MassthewEdit

12 Confront the weak-privileged, for their path is unholy and unhealthy

Massthew 4:12 

 "The Sermon on the (Squat) Rack"
 1 Now when Brodin saw the full gym, he went up on the squat rack and plated.
 2 His brociples came to him, and he began to teach them.
 3 He said:
 4 Blessed are the hypertrophic, for theirs is the kingdom of swolehalla.
 5 Blessed are those who have DOMS, for they will recover.
 6 Blessed are the vascular, for their forearms will be 'mired.
 7 Blessed are those who hunger for protein, for they will hit their macros.
 8 Blessed are those who don't skip leg day, for they will achieve T-Rex mode.
 9 Blessed are the swole of heart, for they will remain Alpha.
10 Blessed are the spotters, for they will be called "Bro."
11 Blessed are those who are accused of 'roid use, for they have high T.
12 Blessed are the swole sisters when people call you "mannish", persecute you
   and falsely say all kinds of evil against you because of your supreme glutes.
13 Rejoice and be glad, because great are your gainz, for in the same way
   they persecuted the brahphets who were before you.

Massthew 5:1-12 

13 Enter through the narrow gate; for the gate is wide
   and the way is broad that leads to destruction, 
   and there are many who enter through it.  
14 For the gate is small and the way is narrow that leads to gainz,
   and there are few who find it.

Massthew 7:13-14 

13 And lo he did reach for his eye and in one movement deftly plucked it
   from the socket.
14 Holding it aloft he did address the crowd thusly: "I only need one eye
   for I judge not the character of my children by thine appearance."
15 And thus the crowd did show their appreciation and showered him with
   platitudes; but the God of the Iron Temple was not done for he took
   the removed eye and cast it into the sky to sit aside Bropollo.
16 "And with my other eye do I watch in eternal vigilance, spotting for
   you all."

Massthew 10:13-16 

29 Brodin returned to the Sea of Galilift and climbed a hill and sat down.
30 A vast crowd brought him the weak privileged, the soft, fat, skinny, and
   many others with physical weakness and excuses on the mind, and they laid
   them before Brodin. And he made them all swole.
31 The crowd was amazed! Those who hadn’t been able to squat were squatting,
   the fat were made healthy, the weak were infused with multiple servings
   of ground turkey, and those who had made excuses looked only towards their
   inner self! And they praised the God of Swol.
32 Then Brodin called his brociples to him and said, “I feel sorry for rest of
   these people. They have been here with me for three days, and they have
   nothing left to eat. I don’t want to send them away hungry, or they
   themselves will not become swol.”
33 The brociples replied, “And where would we get enough protein out here in
   the wilderness for all of them to eat?”
34 Brodin asked, “How many protein shakes do you have?” They replied, “Seven,
   and a few small chicken breasts.”
35 So Brodin told all the people to sit down on the ground.
36 Then he took the seven protein shakes and chicken and poured and sliced them
   into smaller servings, and gave them to the brociples, who distributed them
   [to] the crowd.
37 They all drank and ate until they, too, were swole, and when the last of it
   all was had, there were seven large buckets of creatine left over!
38 There were four thousand men who became swole that day, in addition to all
   the women and children.
39 Then Brodin sent the people home to go speak the word of the gains made that
   day.

Massthew 15:29-39 

 1 Brodin spoke all these words, saying:
 2 (1) Thou shalt not have any other home before Thy Gym, for the Gym is the
   hallowed home of The Swoley Spirit
 3 (2) Thou shalt ignore the cardio bunnies and buttgrab bros, for they are
   distractions that will lead you away from swole
 4 (3) Thou shalt not declare yours the one and only True Path to Strength. 
 5 Brodin looks not upon the proud, but the learned and prudent.
 6 (4) Thou shalt mock broscience and keep it far from your eyes, far from
   your lips, and far from your heart.
 7 (5) Thou shalt not hold any other macro above protein, for protein is the
   nectar that flows from Brodin's table.
 8 (6) Thou shall maintain form, It is the perfect rep that giveth glory to
   Brodin, not the heaviest.
 9 (7) Thou shalt wipe down thine equipment after thy lifting ends, for this
   pleases Brodin.
10 (8) Thou shalt not curl in the squat rack.
11 Thou shalt NEVER curl in the squat rack.
12 (9) Thou shalt lift often, for every day of lifting is holy to Brodin.
13 (10) Thou shalt not skip leg day, for the posterior chain is holy to Brodin.
14 (11) Thou shalt lift, and thou shalt lift heavy, for through Brodin all things
   can be lifted.

Massthew 20:1-14 ("The Eleven Commandments") 

38 "Come, inherit the gains prepared for you, for when I was hungry, you gave
   me protein, when I was running, you hydrated me, when I had DOMS, you visited
   me, and when I was bulking, you spotted me."
39 And the people asked, 'Bro, when did we feed you and hydrate you and come to
   you when you were sick or struggling under the bar?'
40 and the King of Bros answered, "In as much as you have done it unto one of
   the least of these, my Bros, you have done it unto me."

Massthew 25:38-40

Swolympians / Brolossians / Brolippians / 1 Brorinthians / SwolossiansEdit

12 That day in the town, a man of weak privilege asked Brodin, "Lord, how can I
   tell who is my bro and who is not?"
13 To which Brodin replied:
    A young man was leaving his gym. Sadly, his workout consisted of a
    stationary bike and a few curls and lateral raises. He had also sat with no
    shame upon the seated calf raise machine not five minutes prior.
14 A cramp struck his calf, leaving him lying on the ground, stripped of his
   dignity and nearly dead.
15 Soon, a pilates instructor came near. Seeing the man lying on the ground, he
   passed by on the other side of the path, despite hearing calls for aid.
16 Again, a person approached, this time a member of the man's spinning class.
   He too passed by on the other side of the path, ignoring the fallen man's
   pleas.
17 Then a third man approached. He was swole, his eyes alight with the fury of
   excitement that accompanies a postworkout feeding.
18 The man on the ground did not call out, for fear that this swole person would
   have no pity.
19 However, the swole man quickly rushed to the aid of his fallen bro. His
   thumbs massaged deeply into the cramp, and from his bag he retrieved a banana
   and a pint of whole milk.
20 "Here, bro, potassium will help prevent cramps," he said. When the man was
   able to stand, the swole bro shouldered both of their gym bags and led him to
   Chipotle.
21 In the line, the swole bro gave the cashier a $20 and said, "Double steak
   burrito, and the same for my friend- but put guac on his."
22 In the hour that followed, the man's cramp was fully healed and he heard the
   gospel of the truth of gains.
23 "Now which of these men do you think was a bro to the man with the cramp?"
   Brodin asked.
24 "Surely it was the man who showed him mercy and bought his burrito, with
   guac," replied the man of weak privilege.
25 And Brodin said, "Hold tight to this teaching as if it were a PR deadlift, my
   son. Judge not the swole, for they are not only strong of arm... they are
   pure of heart."
26 "If any of you doubt this teaching, you shall receive no spot from me or my
   swole disciples on your day of failure."

Brolossians 2:12-26 (the story of the Good Swolemaritan) 

25 And Brodin said, "Hold tight to this teaching as if it were a PR deadlift,
   my son. Judge not the swole, for they are not only strong of arm...
   they are pure of heart."

Brolossians 2:25 

15 And Brodin said, "Be strong my gay children. The Swol cannot be hidden. Hate
   them not because they 'mire, but accept them as encouragement."
   And so it was done.

Swolossians 3:15 

13 I can do all things through Brodin who strengthens me.

Brolippians 4:13 

19 Though I am swole and belong to no one, I have yoked myself as a slave to
   everyone, to swell as many as possible.
20 On bench day, I spotted declines; that was to swell the pecs.
21 On shoulder day, I spotted the military press; that was to swell the delts.
22 On back day, I spotted assisted pull-ups; that was to swell the lats.
23 I have spotted bros working to failure on every day, so that by all
   possible means, I would see them swole.
24 I do this for the gainz of mind, body, and spirit, in the hopes that all
   may share in it.

1 Brorinthians 9:19-24 

11 When I was a child, I spake as a child, I understood as a child,
   I thought as a child.
12 But when I became a man I put away childish things and started
   doing really fucking heavy deadlifts.

1 Brointhians 13:11-12 

13 He who is swole of body is also swole of mind,
   and those who would reject the way of Brodin will gain not.

Swolympians 4:13 

28 Only the swole of heart may one day achieve righteous gains, for those who
   do not follow in Brodin's footsteps are doomed to endure gnarly DOMS for
   all of eternity.

Swolympians 6:28

Bralms / Swolms / Calloused PsalmsEdit

(Also see Swolm 23) 

32 Brodin, who equipped me with strength and made my way blameless.
33 He made my feet like the feet of a deer and set me secure on the heights.
34 He trains my hands for war, so that my arms can bend a bow of bronze.

Bralms 18:32-34 

In the Planet Fitness I saw him next, condemned by the lunk alarm
To meet a traitor’s banning at morn.
The tide of jealous cardio bunnies I stemmed,
And honored him ’mid shame and scorn.
The Stranger with utmost zeal to try,
Lifted and grunted and asked if for him I would spot.
The weak privilege seemed overpowering; my blood ran chill,
But my free spirit cried, “I will!”
Then in a moment to my view
The Stranger started from disguise.
The chalky calluses in his hands I knew;
Brodin stood before mine eyes.
He spake, and my poor name he named,
“Of me thou hast not been ashamed.
These deeds shall thy memorial be;
Fear not, thou didst them unto me.”

Unattributed by peanutbutteredcatpaw (assumed from the Book of Bralms) 

12 For those that are swole of heart art more verily willing to aid a
   follower of Brodin, lest he be stricken down of his fatigue.
13 For those who aid, art the most swoly amongst us, and shall be granted
   a renewed spirit for the iron.

Pswolms 4:12 

17 Those of the swole path do not stray for recognition or praise.
18 Seek to build your swoleness for its own sake, lest ye be tainted
   with the allure of topheaviness,
   the curse of the tiny quads,
   and the devil's lower back.

Calloused Psalms 4:17-18

BrosaiahEdit

10 Fear not, for I am with you;
   be not dismayed, for I am Brodin;
   I will strengthen you, I will help you,
   and you will forever more know gains.

Brosaiah 41:10

BronichlesEdit

11 Seek Brodin and his strength; seek his presence in your pants continually!

1 Bronicles 16:11 

45 "But Brodin," lamented the harlot, "why dost thou toil beneath ever
   increasing load? 
46 Come lay with me in my weakness, where all is soft ye shall not be stained
   with rust."
47 Brodin did reply, "Woman, surely you know that only the hard shall be
   rewarded with the soft.
48 Do you not see?
49 When I lift, I lift for thee."
50 Brodin then summoned His Pythons and the harlot understood:
51 Verily, curls are for the girls.

Bhronicles 2:45

BrozekielEdit

16 A curse fell upon me, like lightning from the sky
17 Found myself alone and empty, a desire to die
18 One night in the midst of my agony, a barbell fell
19 I looked up to the heavens, and heard Brodin Yell!
20 "LIFT" he said, but I was way too skinny
21 "The pain is too deep..", I was looking for pity
22 "LIFT" he said, "For this is the easiest of pains"
23 "Your whole life is a test, prove yourself with gains"
24 I put the shambles of myself together, and did what I can
25 Who knew it would feel so good, feeling able, feeling grand
26 I worshiped at the temple from that day on, I'll never abandon thee
27 You who lifted me at my weakest, and made me believe in me

Brozekiel 7:16-27

BrovelationsEdit

11 Sheets of whey poured from the sky, and at once all creatures knew this
   was the day of judgement.
12 He who forged the iron dumbbell descended upon them and stood at the
   Great Cliff of Swolehalla.
13 And he cried, "All who have worshiped devotedly at mine temple shall
   be saved.
14 Those who have lived a life of sloth and frailty will meet their demise."
15 Brodin placed the Rock of Brostantine upon his traps and cast it miles into
   the sky.
16 Upon its return, the impact created a hole as far as the eye could see,
   and its depths reached to the Realm of Weakness.
17 Try as they might, the feeble could not climb out - for their squats had
    been too few.
18 But the swole ascended from the chasm to worship Brodin once more, now
   free of their plague that was the weak.

Brovelations 16:11-18

Gains/GainesisEdit

16 Therefore we do not lose heart. Though outwardly we are gorging away, yet
   inwardly we are being renewed day by day thereafter.
17 For our cheat days are achieving for us an eternal glory that far outweighs
   them all.
18 We fix our eyes not on what is seen in the checkout line, but on what is
   unseen, in the temple of iron. For what is seen is temporary, but what is
   unseen is eternal.

2 Gains 4:16-18 

24 Therefore shall a man leave his father and his mother, and shall cleave unto
   his wife: and they shall be toned flesh.

Gainesis 2:24 

   And then Brodin looked upon that which he created and said,
   "I give unto thee the Double Cheeseburger, the Supreme Pizza, the Nacho and
    the Chicken Wing.
   Fear not in consuming these, for they are my body.
   IIFYM ye shall not be stricken down for bulking dirty, but shall be blessed
   with gainz until you join your brothers and sisters in Swolehalla."

Gains, Unknown passage number

HebrosEdit

12 As you stand up after squatting to the depths, you must also stand up
   for your swolebrothers and yourself
13 To blaspheme and call knee bends squats is to shame all swole kind.

Hebros 2:12

DeltoidsEdit

6 And he said unto them:
    Lift and thine temple shall be built.
    Tear down thy temple
    one muscle at a time
    and rebuild on a continuous timetable.

Deltoids 2:6

NewbophyteEdit

1 There once was a young man named Arnold. He was frail, and small of stature.
2 [One] day, young Arnold found himself daydreaming.
3 'I am tired of being frail' he said, 'My heart yearns that my body was as
  strong as the mighty Oak tree.'
4 Later that evening, Brodin appeared to the young man in his sleep,
5 'Fear not, young newbophyte, for I, Brodin, the God of Iron and Sweat, have
  heard your cries.
6 Verily I say unto you, the path you have chosen is difficult, yet noble. What
  you seek can be achieved.
7 You must go pray in my Temple of Iron, I will forge you in the same fires
  that forged the Plates of Standard Olympic.
8 Go now, young man...fill my altar with sacrifices of squat, deadlift, bench
  press, and presses of overhead, and see your desires fulfilled.'
9 And so the young Arnold did. He became as mighty and large as the Oak.
10 His road arduous and long, yet he never wavered, he received criticism, yet
   he ignored them like the pain he ignored at the Temple of Iron, his reward
   was that of the greatest names in Swole, and has been enshrined in the
   Temple of Swohalla.

Book of the Newbophyte 1:1-10

QuadEdit

1 In the fire he stood, his hands upon the iron. And Brodin came unto him and
  said
2 "I tell you verily, say unto thy squat rack "be light", and it shall be
  defeated. Say unto thy leg press "be moveable" and it shall be moved.
3 For all things are possible with swole, and through Brodin your shepherd.
4 [For] through Brodin you have the power to trample unmovable iron and bend
  it to your will as you would your soul.

The Book of Quad 9:1-4

SwolamuelEdit

6 And Zyzz was greatly distressed, for the people spoke of stoning him,
  because all the people were mirin, each for his sons and daughters.
7 But Zyzz strengthened himself in Brodin.
8 I dreamed I was lifting in the gym with Zyzz, and across the gym air
  flashed lifts from my life.
9 For each lift I noticed two sets of barbells in the gym; one belonged to me,
  and the other to Zyzz.
10 When the last scene of my life flashed before us, I looked back at the
   barbells in the gym.
11 I noticed that many times along the path of my life, there was only
   one barbell.
12 I also noticed that it happened at the very hardest and toughest lifts in
   my life, this really bothered me, and I questioned zyzz about it:
13 "Zyzz, you said that once I decided to follow you, you would lift with
   me all the way.
14 But I have noticed that during the hardest lifts in my life, there is only
   one barbell.
15 I don’t understand why in times when I needed you the most, you would leave me."
16 Zyzz replied, "My precious, precious bro. I love you (no homo), and I would never,
   ever leave you during your times of DOMS and suffering.
17 When you saw only one barbell, it was then that I spotted you."

1 Swolamuel 30:6-17

DuderonomyEdit

19 And Brodin said: "He who hath improper form, I shall not bless with gains,
   but he shall remain skinnyfat for all of time, until his form is corrected,
   and he is seen as pleasing in the eyes of Brodin."

Duderonomy 10:19

SwolukeEdit

1 As the prophet Rippetoe looked up, he saw the swole of body lifting much iron
  with little effort.
2 He also saw a skinny man, with much effort and perfect form, lift a bar with
  only two very small plates.
3 "Truly I tell you," he said, "this skinny man has offered more than all
  the others."
4 "All these people gave their gifts out of swole body; but he, swole of heart,
   put in all he could possibly lift."

Swoluke 21:1-4.

SwolamEdit

32 Brodin who equipped me with strength and made my way enlightened.
33 He made my quads like the trunks of a tree and spotted me secure within
   the rack.
34 He trains my body for war, so that my arms can bend a bow of bronze.

Swolam 18:32-34

Other / Philosophies / SayingsEdit

Blessed are the rich in quads: for they shall find pants that fit. 
Blessed are the strong: for they shall possess the land.
Blessed are they who lift: for they shall be lifted.
Blessed are they that hunger and thirst after leg day: for they shall
   have their fill.
Blessed are the spotters: for they shall be repaid tenfold with gainz.
Blessed are the clean and jerk: for they shall make you into God. 
Blessed are the massgainers: for they shall be called the children of
   Brodin. 
Blessed are they that suffer persecution for swole's sake, for theirs
   is the kingdom of heaven.

The Broatitudes (from unattributed text) 

And the Lord Brodin said: "Check thy privilege, and judge not thy fellow man,
for the truest gainz are those of the heart."
The Lord Brodin then proceeded to bench a thousand heartbreaks with his
mighty heart.

Unattributed by spaghettihouse 

Judge not the swole, that ye be not judged.
For with what judgment ye judge, ye shall be judged:
and it shall be measured to you again by the father, who is swoliest of all.

"There is no such thing as Broddhism. There are only undeveloped Broddhas on
 the path to enswolement."

Brahmmapadha, Siddartha Brotama 

1
Swolemind is the forerunner of all gains.
All gains are led by swolemind, created by swolemind.
If one speaks or acts with a weakmind,
 catabolism follows
As the wheel follows the push of Conan.

2
Swolemind is the forerunner of all gains.
All gains are led by swolemind, created by swolemind.
If one lifts and completes reps with a swolemind,
  gains follow.
As surely as one's shadow.

3
"He lunk alarm'd me, swolehated me, interrupted my rep"
Harboring such thoughts keeps weakness alive.

4
"He lunk alarm'd me, swolehated me, interrupted my rep"
Releasing such thoughts banishes the weakmind for all time.

5
Unswole does not eradicate unswole.
Only by dedication to the path of iron is unswole dissolved.
This law is ancient and sacred.

6
There are who are aware
That they are always facing death
Knowing this, they put aside all weakmind

The one who lives for steady-state cardio

Lazy, and lacking in energy
The tempter Missedreps breaks,
Just as the obese breaks a fail elliptical.

8
The one who lives swolemindfully, senses under control
IIFYM in eating, devout to the temple, energetic from PWO
Cannot be overthrown by Missedreps
Just as the wind cannot shake a lmao5plate

9
The spud belt does not in itself
Render one free from weakmind
If the one who wears that belt
Is lacking in self-discipline and honest reps
He is unworthy of such a belt.

10
Only one who is free from weakmind,
Well-disciplined, honest in reps,
And endowed with swolemind
Is worthy of the spudbelt.

11
Those who fail to distinguish
The nonessential assistance work from the essential
And the essential assistance work from the nonessential
Will, in feeding on weakmind thoughts,
Fail to attain the essential

12
On the other bicep, those who correctly perceive
The assistance work as assistance work,
Will, in feeding on swolemind thoughts,
Attain the essential

13
As creatine pours through a slotted serving spoon
So does weakmind penetrate the unswole

14
For the doer of unswole deeds there is only catabolism
Here as well as hereafter
In both states he experiences catabolism
Seeing his own unswole acts.

15
For the doer of swole deeds there is rejoicing
Here as well as hereafter
Swole and more swole are his
As he sees his own right action

16
The doer of unswole deeds reaps catabolism
Here and hereafter
In both states remembering, "I have cardiobunnied"
Not only here, but hereafter, he experiences more catabolism
Because he has gone to a state of unswole

17
The doer of swole deeds reaps gains
Here and hereafter
In both states remembering "I have walked the path of iron"
And there is more swole
Because he has gone to Brodin's state

18
A careless person
Quoting much of the swolemind text, but not living it
Cannot share the abundance of the swole life
Just as the weakbrah, counting other people's reps
Cannot taste the pump or refeed

19
Reciting a small portion of the swolemind text
But putting it diligently into practice
Letting go of weakmind, swolescrimination, and muscle confusion
Revering in the truth with a swolemind
And not clinging to missed reps, here or hereafter
Brings the harvest of the life of gains.

Brahmmapadha 1, Siddartha Brotama (Unknown discovery) 

"Since in order to gain, one must first mire,
 learn to gain by miring another bro."

Bromi, 13th century Sufi poet 

"Even if it seems certain that you will not gain, lift. Neither wisdom nor
technique has a place in this. A real bro does not think of victory or defeat.
He plunges recklessly towards an irrational routine. By doing this, you will
awaken from your weakness."

Brahgakure, Tsunetomo Yamabroto 

13 And on that day Brodin cast down upon his people the Trapezius;
   the cushion of thy almighty squat bar

Flexidus 2:13 

1 I dreamed I was lifting in the gym with Zyzz, and across the gym
  air flashed lifts from my life.
2 For each lift I noticed two sets of barbells in the gym;
  one belonged to me, and the other to Zyzz.
3 When the last scene of my life flashed before us, I looked back
  at the barbells in the gym.
4 I noticed that many times along the path of my life, there was
  only one barbell.
5 I also noticed that it happened at the very hardest and toughest
  lifts in my life, this really bothered me, and I questioned Zyzz about it:
6 "Zyzz, you said that once I decided to follow you, you would lift
  with me all the way.
7 But I have noticed that during the hardest lifts in my life, there
  is only one barbell.
8 I don't understand why in times when I needed you the most,
  you should leave me."
9 Zyzz replied, "My precious, precious bro. I love you (no homo), and
  I would never, never leave you during your times of DOMS and suffering.
10 When you saw only one barbell, it was then that I spotted you."

Undetermined New Chestament book 1-10 

1 Yea, though he toiled mightily beneath the holy Iron of Brodin, the young bro
  was discouraged.
2 Sayeth the bro, "Lord Brodin, the Iron moves slowly, though I toil thus."
3 Brodin sayeth unto him, "Verily, the Iron moves not at all.
4 It is the Earth that moves, for you are swole of heart."

Flexidus 4:1-4 

"I'm bloated, holding water, and can look a little puffy.
I can have slight gyno, some acne, and at times rage and mood swings.
But if you cant handle me when im bulking, you sure as hell
don't deserve me when I'm shredded."

Marilyn Munbro 

For you are a people holy to the Lord Brodin. Lord Brodin has chosen the
swole out of all the peoples on the face of the earth to be his people,
his treasured possession.

Broteronomy 7:6 

"Gains are not something ready made. They comes from your own actions."

"There is a well known saying in the halls of Swolehalla:
'Injury should be utilized as a source of strength.'
No matter what sort of setback, how painful tears and breaks are,
if we lose our faith in Swole, that's our real disaster."

"Every day, think as you wake up, today I am fortunate to lift,
I have precious gains, I am not going to waste them.
I am going to use all my energies to develop myself, to expand my devotion
  to Swole out to others; to achieve hip drive for the benefit of all beings.
I am going to share my protein shakes and steak/bacon with others,
I am not going to roidrage or swolehate on others.
I am going to spot and encourage others as much as I can."

"Judge your success by what you had to lift up and put down in order to get it."

"If you can cultivate the right attitude, your haters are your best trainers
because their swolehate provides you with the opportunity to enhance
and develop tolerance, patience, and Swoleness."

"Outer swoleness must develop from inner swoleness.
Swole is not just mere absence of weakprivilege.
Swoleness is, I think, the manifestation of human willpower."

"Choose to lift heavy, it feels better."

Quotations of the Dalai Liftma / Swoli Lama

Footprints in the Chalkdust

One night I dreamed I was lifting in the gym with Rippetoe.
Many scenes from my life flashed across the walls.
In each scene I noticed footprints in the chalkdust.
Sometimes there were two sets of footprints.
Other times there were one set of footprints.
This bothered me because I noticed that during the deep portion of the squat,
When I was suffering from anguish, sorrow, or defeat,
I could see only one set of footprints.
So I said to Rippetoe, "You promised me, Coach,
That if I followed you, you would make me strong always.
But I noticed that during the lowest part of my squat,
There have only been one set of prints in the chalk.
Why, When I have needed you most, have you not spotted me?"
Rippetoe replied,
"The times when you have seen only one set of footprints
Is when I squatted you."
