@GooseGanderTalk @SamaHoole To me, the real polarity or working out versus not working out If you're injured, you're not working out Intensity level needs to account for that, or else, it's back to zero

@cameronpollock @SamaHoole I’m not claiming older people need to be breaking PRs, but there’s not much middle ground on intensity. You have to work hard, have time under tension, and use progressive overload.

Why older lifters are told to go lighter. "You're not 25 anymore. High reps, protect the joints, stay away from the heavy stuff." This advice contains a half-truth wrapped in a misunderstanding. The half-truth: recovery takes longer as you age. Joint health warrants more attention. Some movements that were appropriate at 25 warrant modification at 50. The misunderstanding: the mechanism for hypertrophy doesn't change with age. Mechanical tension, close to failure, adequate load. The signal is the same. The body still responds to it. What changes is the recovery equation. Not the stimulus equation. An older lifter needs more rest between sessions, not lighter weights. They need to manage volume more carefully, not abandon heavy load. They need less volume, more sleep, more protein, more attention to joint health: not a life sentence of 20-rep sets with pink dumbbells. The 20-rep pink dumbbell recommendation is well-intentioned and physiologically backwards. The 60-year-old who trains heavy, recovers appropriately, and applies progressive overload will build more muscle than the one who does gentle circuits three times a week. Age is a recovery variable. Not a load variable.

@GooseGanderTalk @SamaHoole There's pink DBs But there's also a range This advice feels a bit polarised Isn't there middle ground?

Good post. I’m 62 and train mostly older adults. The “go light” philosophy isn’t just incorrect, as you state, I’d argue it’s a real problem for the few older people who still get to the gym. They could be getting so much more out of their workouts if they weren’t convinced they have to do everything so gently. Sure, build up and be prepared for the intensity, but abandoning intensity and overload is a really bad idea.

@IAMERICAbooted Besides WAF and avoiding public exposure cloud-native networking could also use a dot point Hub-spoke with self-serve, ideally It's a higher bar, but the direction I see many a megacorp going in

Cloud security in a nutshell: goal is to decrease risk. In cloud it goes a bit like this: IAM - MFA all the things. If you can swing it with ops, pilot passwordless. Users will love it, I promise! Make sure everyone can't just escalate privileges when they're not admins Make sure devices are managed. If their not, MAM-WE is your friend Make sure data in transit and at rest is encrypted. If you're highly regulated and multi-GEO, I'll pray for you, because you have to consider data residency and traversal too. Validate logging is sufficient for the compliance frameworks and doesn't have creds in it. Validate DLP visibility and controls wherever the data flows and gets stored depending on the risk classification Don't allow deprecated Oauth Protocols like Implicit Grants with fragments, ROPC flows, and use Public Client Flows sparingly unless desktop apps on managed devices Use application proxy wherever possible to transition on-prem apps to Entra. Use SSO. Additional auth should only be required where high volumes of sensitive data resides Make sure you have policies and procedures for handling secrets and vaulting. You don't want them ending up in Teams, SharePoint, or Confluence xD For temporary apps, have a preplanned documented decommissioning process and date because they are going to require insane privileges to do their thing Nail down governance and backup/restore processes in the forefront Make sure there's EDR and AV on most devices (~95% or more) Make sure there's Defender for Office365, Teams ZAP, and Defender Cloud Apps with App Governance or another CASB If you don't have an SSPM, do CIS benchmark audits and just document stuff like 3rd party solutions and mitigating controls Make sure stuff has WAFs if you've got a publicly facing webapp and use things like application proxy to make login easy Make sure user apps require assignment and don't grant API privileges associated with administrative activities Every time you traverse a trust boundary, assess what controls are there to deal with tampering and access Label your data. Find out where the most sensitive stuff lives and add extra controls like specific label configurations (user assigned permission and no Export) Make sure stuff isn't publicly facing on accident. Avoid legacy protocols. Use private groups, teams, and sites wherever possible. It's never always possible. For accepted risks, create detections and playbooks. Temporal Reassessments for configuration drift and low-level documentation is you don't have drift monitoring solutions implemented. Let users do as much as possible. User experience is of the upmost importance. Pop-ups are no beuno.

@Jousting_Sticks Might have known he was playing with sore ribs too That's a plus plus

It’s why my Jonty Faull stocks are majorly up since he hit weitering for no reason

I’m fully in on any young key forward that has a real bozo + aggression streak. Hit some guys, shank some kicks, crash some packs nowhere near the ball. That’s how I know your legit

@tiger_hype @wonga81 He had a passage where he was ball magnet / turnover king Needs to break that pattern

@wonga81 Too many clangers for someone with his experience

Good signs: Sonsie was ok, maybe a wet track player Steely, was lively again Faull, growing in confidence Trainor, Taranto both excellent Rioli, usual cameo role Vlaustin, Short, Miller, stoic again Prestia, a steady return. All in all, not disgraced. #gotiges

@RFC_Centre Can't fault Gray's attitude and effir

We’re giving it a red hot crack! Have to admire Campbell Gray’s first half. He’s not giving an inch. Taranto is playing like a captain. Superb. Steely Green has really come on as a player. 3 snags. We’ve got to do something about Hopper & fast. #GoTiges

@Jonesracing82 @RFC_Centre Was Armstrong out there today??

@RFC_Centre Armstrong needs a run in the 2's as well. Stat sheet - 1 fk against... Get some confidence up!

Disappointing finish. That said, top 4 side on their home deck without a ruckman & Lynch was always going to be tough to stay in touch. Trainor a highlight. Stays in for the rest of the year. Taranto enormous. Concerned with Brown & Hopper. Changes needed there. #GoTiges

@mattricho0 @AF_Hell If you've got it flaunt it!

@AF_Hell No

Did you even remotely consider wearing a collared shirt tonight @mattricho0? #AFLpiesgiants

@Cal_UpTheTigs Looking forward more than any other unplayed recruit Can't wait to get Cummings and Hotton back too

Praying to see him debut at AFL level this year. The modern game doesnt fully suit his speed, but his contest to contest ability and his kicking should hold him in good stead, particularly if he's surrounded by guys that can run and spread. I'm excited for his eventual debut

@texasrunnerDFW How does inflation factor in Amy?

On a $400,000 loan with an interest rate of 6.5% over 30 years, you will pay a total of $510,177.95 in interest You will pay more in interest than the purchase price of the home The first 3 years you live there, you’re just paying the bank Buy carefully, my friends

@TcameronTodd @RFC_Centre Keep bringing the glass half full Todd

@RFC_Centre We will have a few returning this year so expect the back half to be much better than the first half Should be a fun year

Some thoughts. Best game I’ve seen Seth Campbell play. 3.2 & 19 possessions is an outstanding return. Sonsie superb first half. Taranto can’t do much more. He needs more to go with him in the middle. Feel we need more from Ross in particular. Vlastuin (very) rusty. #GoTiges

@Porkchop_EXP Because they bring an engineering mindset to almost everything, for better and worse

The Dutch healthcare is affordable because they are ruthless with price-benefit evaluations. If an expensive cancer treatment, for example, offers what they consider “marginal” benefit they won’t offer it (something that might still be standard in Germany or Italy even).

@jkillmier1 @BAFLD He'll be fine so long as he gets games of footy and stays fit

@BAFLD The right call for mine, looked all at sea last week.

Keen to understand the conversations the coaches are having with Gibbo. Is it a confidence thing? Go back to the VFL to find his feet?

@Tigers_of_Old I'm a fan and liked his game a lot He's done well to become mobile enough to play wing, while still having the body for inside work

Can’t believe McAuliffe will miss with illness. He needs a good run at it. 😕

@themgmtconsult @StefanFSchubert The best kids in class always know what the right answer is

@StefanFSchubert How on earth are Finland, Iceland and Denmark topping this chart?!

The English-speaking world is falling in rankings of life satisfaction (The Economist)

@Fintech03 And I bring you football and rugby

I had read this on one of those long, boring flights. If we look at the skeleton of a chimpanzee/a pig, they lack a specific cord in their neck called the Nuchal Ligament. We have this elastic band connecting the skull to the spine. This ligament has 0 function in walking. Its only job is to keep our head from wobbling violently while we run. Cos we developed this, we can keep our eyes fixed on a horizon/a moving prey while our body is bouncing in a full gallop. We are essentially steadicam hunters :)

@rfcswallace Better kick than Jontie Just saying

Lots to adore about his first year but this said heaps for me. Buddy was on a tear & put 4 on Josh, who really didn’t do much wrong. Was sent forward & kicked this late. Resilient bloke. Best ahead of him.

@Tigers_of_Old WTF??? Awful luck and news

Unfortunate for Melee Mansell that he’s out with a wrist fracture. He played very well against the Blues. 😔 Wonder if it opens the door for another debut..#ZanePeucker

@mikjcal @chinafutureclub To be fair, Melbourne Airport is terrible from all manner of angles

@chinafutureclub It was so depressing coming home to Melbourne from Shanghai… I was like “what, a bus, the second busiest airport has a bus, but I literally just came from a city that took me to the airport on a frikkin 300km/h MAGLEV” That was a shot back down to reality 🤣🤣🤣

The mismanagement of Australia has become a serious generational problem. I left Australia because it has no future energy. It has low opportunity value. Careers. Dating. Socialising. Technology. Australia is falling behind. Whenever I go back, nothing ever changes.
