How to use these quotes

• Lock screen: pick one discipline quote and keep it there for a month.
• Gym captions: short ones work best. Under five words reads at a glance.
• On your back: the quote you'll actually see most is the one on the person in front of you at the squat rack. Ours are on heavyweight pump cover tees.
