“Some people lift weights, and some people are weightlifters.

This is one of those “there are two types of people in this world” concepts. In the movie The Good, The Bad, and The Ugly, Clint Eastwood wanted a man to dig a hole for him. So he tossed the man a shovel, pointed a gun at him, and said, “There are two kinds of people in this world… those with loaded guns, and those who dig. You dig.” Half of the high school graduation ceremonies in this country each year include some kind of keynote speaker who tries to motivate graduates by saying, “There are two kinds of people in this world… those who watch things happen, and those who make things happen.” We love to break society down into categories, and Olympic Weightlifting is a terrific area to draw a big thick line that divides two simple groups: those who lift weights and those who are weightlifters.”

From There is No Evil Twin by Matt Foreman, Performance Menu Issue 50

Our Women Are Proud Weightlifters…And So Is THAT GUY In The Background…
