" [Nick, 3:25] "Beginner gains are inspiring because it gets someone off the couch to a starting point. Also, an advanced member should get a shoutout too. They get these incremental progressions throughout the later years when you reach an advanced stage, and it's still a big deal for them to achieve something." [Nick, 4:20] "It can be self-kudos, or it can be about your instructors that work for you as well; they do a lot of stuff for you, your internal community and your external community."
