1. “From that, or in addition to that rather, the slingshot was made inside the walls of super training Jim. So I can never really repace super training Jim what is done to me no matter how we slice it. So the gym being free is just my way of paying back to the Powerton community.”

2. “Just a message to me. It was very simple. Your life is short. I don't give two fucks about what other people think. I need to get myself heading in the right direction. And I need to do the things that I want to do. And I need to follow through with my hopes and my dreams rather than be so fearful of stuff. A lot of people are fearful of kind of jumping in with two feet into stuff. And I was like, you know what? I can't have that mentality anymore. It's just not going to work. It didn't work for my brother and it's not going to work for me. So I need to just forge forward and try to figure out a way to keep moving forward and to share the message I want to share and to do it my own way. Do the things my own way. So making the gym free was a byproduct of the slingshot being invented and the slingshot giving me the financial means to make the gym free. But I knew that the gym being free was going to give me back everything tenfold.”

3. “You know, when I first did it, one of my good friends asked me, he said, why are you making the gym free? Because the gym wasn't always free. The gym used to be $125 a month. I just kind of made that value up out of the four times a week that we get together and the amount of coaching that I was offering everybody to me would have been valued a lot more than that, but powerlifters typically don't have that kind of dough to shell out to 300 bucks a month. So I made it 125. But when I switched it to be free, one of my good friends, he was like, why are you making the gym free? And I said to become rich and famous. And from that moment on, that's when things started to really kick in and things started to really groove because at that point, everything started to make a lot more sense to me. It was like Neo in the Matrix. Everything just kind of started to come together one by one things started to unfold. My brother passed away kind of around that time.”

4. “I'm glad we got you finally to the new spot here. We're having a lot of fun here. And this is kind of a dream come true. This is 10 years in the making, super training Jim's been around since 2006. And I started off in somebody else's gym. And then I had my own spot for a while where we were near a hmong funeral home where they were sacrificing all kinds of animals and shit like that. That was really bizarre. But to come to this and be able to offer the gym, the gym is free. Super training's free. And it's just a dream come true to be able to share knowledge. And my mission and goal in life is to make the world a better place to live. Explain the business model. So, how did you decide and how the fuck does that work? How does”
