Building Quote by Brian Shaw

“I know in my training, especially when I'm building up…” quote by Brian Shaw — Download Open image

“I know in my training, especially when I'm building up to a big 'max,' I can take as long as I want to be ready for that lift and mentally prepare for it. In the contest, some of that goes out the window. When your name is called and the bar is loaded, you've got to go whether you're ready or not.”
