I for one love clever sayings, whether they are true or not or apply to weight training or not. So, while I am primarily looking for training/nutrition idioms, axioms or proverbs please, post up anything funny or clever.

Here is a start:
1. You didn't lose if you learned the lesson.
2.Passion Trumps Everything.
3. Do what you suck at.
4. The body becomes it's function.
5. Often...Heavy...Fresh.
6. He who trains more, lifts more.

What you got?

Sweat is fat crying.

If it doesn't challenge you, it doesn't change you.

Yesterday you said Tomorrow.

I am my problem, but also my solution.

My quiet time involves heavy metal.

I will do what you won’t today, so I can do what you can’t tomorrow.

K no w
Pain
K no w
Gain

Every champion was a contender that refused to give up.

Excuses will always be there for you. Opportunity won’t.

One I made up and use on my training partners…
Go for reps and when you pass out, do 3 more reps

Out in the boondocks
I start counting reps, AFTER i feel the burn.
"I command you to grow"
You are defined by your habits, choose well.
Mind over matter, if you don't mind, it don't matter.
Weakness is a choice.
Somewhere the is a woman warming up with your max.
"Wow, I really regret that workout"-No One Ever
The gym is my bitch!
SUCCESS TRAINS, FAILURE COMPLAINS
Don't you dare complain about your body if your not doing anything about it!

For the girls- If you still look cute after your workout, you didn't train hard enough.

Excuses build fat asses. Fear is lack of Faith. You can't want it HALF the time.If you're not sweating, you're not working. Excuses are like assholes, everyone has one and they all stink. Don't complain, just train.

Just a few off the top of my head. I'll think of more.

Thought of a couple I have used...
Come on! My grandmother lifted more than this!
Let's push it, don't stop until spinal fluid squirts out your ear!

If the bar ain't bending you're just pretending.

Oh your friend can lift more than me, then why the fuck am I talking to you.

If you think your technique is perfect, it probably isn't.

Gym lifts don't count.

If you think squatting is bad for your knees, please tell me how you learned to walk.

Oh you read that on the internet that must be true.

When the weight of the world is on your shoulders, squat.

This is enough weight to kill a rhino, luckily i'm not a rhino.

Grip work is like watching porn, don't skip to the end.

There are no hardcore gyms, just shit holes.

Not all big guys are strong, but are strong guys are big.

Cutting weight is like dating a crazy girl, alot of hard work and suffering to feel like shit.

Tren is like an exgirlfriend, you want it and hate it.

If you thought you were going to die but still got it, thats a real PR.

calluses on your hands don't make you hardcore, calluses on your shins and back do.

I really like, If your friend is so much stronger than me, why in the fuck am I talking to you? LMAO
