Muscle Minute #109: Big Risks Lead to Big Rewards

"If you’re not willing to risk everything, you’ll never achieve everything."

I read this quote and, I admit, it sounds a bit dramatic, but there are moments in life where this is true. I don’t think it’s always like this, but there are calculated decisions where you have to risk it all with a dose of borderline delusion.
