"In a lot of US prisons, “straight edge” is slang for a certain kind of convict lifestyle. To get by, most inmates become drawn to gangs, drugs, and all the other destructive pursuits that inevitably follow with that. A straight edger is different. He is somebody who serves his time alone, and with discipline; kind of like a warrior monk. You keep your head down, mind your business and stay pure and focused. A straight edger doesn’t put any poisons—like alcohol, drugs or nicotine— into his body. He keeps control of himself.
This philosophy is something I became increasingly attracted to when I was behind bars. Most of the really serious athletes on the inside approached their incarceration this way. I found that the more rigorously I applied this attitude, the more I got from my training. When I relaxed it, the slower the results were to show up.
You don’t have to be locked away to be a straight edger. There are plenty of unhealthy distractions and illicit temptations on the outside. If you are really starting to take your training seriously,
follow the advice I give in this chapter.
Go straight edge."
