During her opening match at the Australian Open (which she dominated), Serena Williams slightly rolled her ankle. Crap.
When asked the brilliantly idiotic question on whether or not she’ll still compete, she says, ‘My heart’s beating, I’m alive, I’ll be fine.‘ See, Serena, and other elite athletes such as her took the YBF meds years ago when they began their journey to be the best. Awesome.
Of course, the commentators had to get a dig in there on her “extremely large frame” being a hindrance as someone who may be lighter could take an injury like that more in stride. The stupidity of sportscasters is astounding. Bigger+Stronger=disadvantage? Clearly it’s held Serena back all these years. Poor girl.

As a spectator and a fan, I hope the injury isn’t too bad. Time will tell.

At tosabarbell, I build relationships cultivated in a strength and learning environment. There is no 12 week magic pill program to strength but rather a lifetime commitment to be the very best and most useful human you can be.
tosabarbell is a private, home grown gym with three lifting platforms; squat rack; prowlers; throwing implements; bars, bumpers and everything else needed for an effective strength and conditioning program. Straightforward barbell programming including the Olympic lifts; sound (read: not fancy bullshit) diet advance for weight gain or loss; and strong coaching will ensure you will meet your goals such as becoming stronger, more explosive, and better conditioned.
I have been coaching teams and athletes for over 30 years. I grew up participating in various sports at various levels but was always drawn to those that require strength training. I have multiple local, national, and world records in the sports of Weightlifting and Highland Games Heavy Events as well as a combined total of 5 World Championships. My 5 years of training and coaching under Mark Rippetoe provided a wide range of influence from some of the top strength & conditioning and throwing coaches in the country. I will strongly encourage tosabarbell athletes to compete (and prepare you to do so.) However, tosabarbell is also for those who wish to be stronger and go through life feeling better.
