Generation Iron Page #3
of the whole demonstration,
I'm taking the rest of the shirt
and throwin' it off.
"F*** that, what?"
You know, you go through this
whole display of "I'm powerful,
I'm angry, I don't care!"
You do this thing, and it was
some time after that
the teacher, I had bumped
into him again maybe
a week or so,
back in population.
He had said, "Hey, you know,
you got a physique on you!
How you'd like
against teenagers your own age?"
I thought it was a joke.
Back then, I never even used
to think that I would
probably ever even
get out of being
in institutional placement.
It's a lot easier for me to have
been identified as an animal.
Going to the gym and training,
it was probably
the single most important
therapeutic choice
I could make on my own.
And the people that were in my
life have long since moved on.
The one thing that's remained
consistent is still, you know,
this ultimate goal.
Texas.
Wide plains.
Open spaces.
Scorching heat.
Branch Warren leads
a simple life
away from the hustle and bustle
of the city.
I tore my quadriceps tendon,
and it completely detached.
No one's ever come
back from injury,
you know, that injury,
especially that fast.
Most people,
it ends their career.
I did it in six months.
And that was an accident, right?
I was walking
in the parking lot...
in a thunderstorm.
And...
I slipped and fell.
So, you never know
what kind of curve ball
life's gonna throw
at you, right?
Some people cry and b*tch
about it like little girls,
you know, and be babies
about it.
A man, he has issues.
He sets it aside,
he focuses on what he...
what his job is
and gets it done.
I put my faith in God.
You know, I learned
from a very young age
that no one owes you anything,
and there ain't nobody
gonna give you a damn thing.
But you can have anything
you want
if you work hard enough for it.
What's up?
Gotta take care
of business in the gym.
You're with the boys,
so you gotta do what you gotta do.
And when you come home,
you don't bring that home to your family.
Metroflex Gym.
Built inside an old warehouse.
Produced many of Texas'
greatest bodybuilders,
including the great
Ronnie Coleman,
eight-time Mr. Olympia.
Now it serves as a training
camp for Branch Warren
and his training partner,
Johnnie Jackson.
Yeah, baby!
One more, go!
Yeah!
Come on, get some.
Nobody beats you.
Huh?
I grew up in that gym.
I mean, from learning how to fight, to learn
how to train, to learn how to be a man.
I don't think there's one bodybuilder
on this planet that's competed...
or even dreamed of competing
