“You have to lift like you want to get bulky to get the look that women wan - that firm, toned, sleek look, and you build that by building muscle, and you have to lift heavy.”

- Won D

“No one gets to skip the hard part. You don’t get a pass. There will be a period of time where you’re not gonna love the way you look, but that doesn’t mean you need to tear it down.”

- Won D
