The Athlete by Lionel Strongfort

This is a photograph of one of the many life-size, bronze sculptures of Lionel Strongfort which now make his figure immortal in art. This was made from life by the famous sculptor Johannes Götz.

Lionel Strongfort is the only athlete in the world who has ever been honored by having a bronze statue of his perfect full figure find permanent exhibition in the leading national Museums.

Wow! This is amazing. Is this weight hard on your upper back as the center of mass is ~2-3 inches forward from your chest? Do you still pry and pause at the bottom?

Not easy, but not hard. I pause at the bottom, but don't pry - I do paused goblet squats. It is not hard on my upper back, but quite hard on my abs. I love heavy GSQ or ZSQ - my favorite types of squats.

Today's quote: Happiness (Chinese saying)

If you want happiness for an hour – take a nap.
If you want happiness for a day – go fishing.
If you want happiness for a year – inherit a fortune.
If you want happiness for a lifetime – help others.

如果你想要一小時的幸福感,那就去打盹。
如果你想要一天的幸福感,那就去釣魚。
如果你想要一年的幸福感,那就繼承財富。
如果你想要一輩子的幸福感,那就去幫助別人吧。

We lost a strong member of our StrongFirst community last week - Thomas Abbey. All of us were inspired by his energy, athleticism and strength.

What we are asking is for everyone to post 10 of your best swings for Tom.

There is a scholarship fund where you can contribute to his two beautiful children. Please include this information in your post for others to see.
