Answer 1

**** that, only way you get strong is by being a beast,

Beast that **** man, beast it

Answer 2

Genetics can certainly help, but I wouldn't say they are required.

If you have an advantage with genetics, that's awesome, but with enough patience and perseverance, you can achieve great strength.
