I am a size 8.
In fitness, this makes me one of the big girls.
I don’t have serious aspirations to be smaller.
I have enormous strength that increases every day.
I feel fit and fast and focused.
I fit in all my clothes.
Why would I encourage myself to be smaller?
When I broke a baseball bat over my glute last night, people didn’t ridicule me for being thick-thighed.
Instead, they watched the video 6000 times in 24 hours.
When I tore a full deck of casino cards, I wasn’t concerned what I looked like while doing it.
I don’t watch videos and pick myself apart.
In fact, it’s quite the opposite.
I want to do great things – and these things have no size requirements.
I want to bend steel with my hands.
I want to inspire people to do things they never saw themselves doing.
I look at my videos and I dissect them for technique changes I’d like to make.
I don’t dissect who I am or what I represent based on my size.
If you are big, small, or anywhere in between, I hope you aspire to do great things.
I hope you want to be big – even huge – in spirit.
I hope you keep growing huge in effort and have gigantic goals to chase.
I hope you want to do big things, no matter your size.
As always, it’s your call.
