Starting Strength crew reminding us how little they know about anything that isn’t squat, bench and deadlift.
If you could hit those other numbers, you would be doing more like 20 pull-ups.

How does high-intensity interval training (HIIT) compare with moderate-to-vigorous continuous training (MVICT)?
Our new meta-analysis synthesises 115 RCTs (n = 3196) across populations from sedentary adults to elite athletes.

@SarAllyce I’ve always assumed that arm fat is something only fat and/or untrained people have. Is that wrong?

So we're going to let a mother kill her own infant right up to birth. What a shameful blot on our history.

💔BREAKING: On a sad & shameful day for our nation, the House of Lords has just voted to allow abortion UP TO BIRTH to be introduced into law. This extreme proposal will endanger women & threaten the lives of viable unborn babies.🧵1/

“I$rael tried to kill me in a targeted airsrike”
Listen up, man-who-nobody-has-heard-of. Israel mulched Nasrallah in a fortified bunker, Ayatollah Khnonce with pinpoint accuracy in his hideout, and Haniyeh in a guarded government guesthouse.
You’re not that big of a deal.

Today I$rael tried to kill me in a targeted airstrike in southern Lebanon as I was reporting on was the targeting of bridges and the forced displacement of 1 million people, an ethnic cleansing operation on a larger scale than the Nakba I have absolutely no doubt that this was deliberate. Despite claims there were no warnings ahead of the strike and no notifications sent to the Lebanese Army who allowed us to film As we have seen in Gaza they want to silence journalists who document and report their war crimes It is the western powers who provide political and military support for I$rael, arming it to the teeth to carry out genocide in Gaza and ethnic cleansing here in Lebanon. They are not simply complicit, but active participants and should be held accountable for their actions. But if I$rael thinks today’s strike will silence us and keep us out of the field they are very, very mistaken

What the Mongols ate:
- Fatty mutton
- Fermented mare's milk
- Horse blood, drawn from the vein without killing the animal
- Dried meat pressed under the saddle until it became jerky
- Milk curds
- Bone marrow
What the Mongols did not eat:
- Vegetables (they called them "horse food")
- Grains (those were for conquered peoples)
- Fruit
- Anything that came in a packet
- Anything that required a supply chain
What the Mongols accomplished on this diet:
- Conquered more territory than any empire in human history
- Rode 60 to 100 miles a day. In winter. In armour.
- Maintained exceptional physical conditioning across decades of continuous campaign
- Zero recorded obesity
- Zero recorded diabetes
- Zero recorded heart disease
What modern nutritionists say about this diet:
"Unsustainable. Dangerous. Nutritionally incomplete. Will cause deficiencies."
Have you looked at a map recently?
Not a map in a book. A proper map. The kind that shows you what 13 million square miles of conquered territory looks like.
It looks like a diet that worked.

I am giving creatine another try.
I am about 3 weeks in. My stomach is handling 5mg okay. More than that, it's shit my pants.
I honestly notice no difference with or without it. Never have.
Am I the only one who feels like it basically does nothing?

Apparently Israel doesn't target journalists...
It's on camera, will MSM still deny what their own eyes see?
This is why Israel has denied Western journalists into Gaza, because they'd show the horrors the Israeli regime is perpetrating

@BeeTee2887 @homegymcoop Voltra is absolutely awesome. Doesn’t mean you don’t also use other equipment.
I use it for 1-2 lifts per workout, alongside kettlebells, dumbbells, barbells etc
It wipes the floor with them for some applications.

Imagine being on holiday and taking your tiny child to a soft play and this absolute freak hears you speaking Hebrew and decides to lecture you about having the audacity of being Israeli and being on holiday. Absolutely f*ck these racist c@nts. Honestly.

"So why are our loyalties constantly questioned? Why are we viewed through a lens of suspicion and treated as permanent outsiders?"
Carla Denyer@carla_denyer
Solidarity with our deputy leader @MothinAli, who’s calling out the appalling Islamophobic abuse he’s faced from the right. Many politicians are complicit in whipping up this climate of hatred.
English
@razor5edge @michaelfolkson @AaronBastani It’s baffling that someone would feel so strongly about something they know nothing about.
English
@michaelfolkson @AaronBastani Israel is a 1948 man-made invention, you tool. Jesus was a Palestinian man born in Nazareth, Historic Palestine. Nazareth was supposed to be part of the Palestinian state according to the 1947 UN partition plan, but it was illegally & forcibly stolen as per usual by Israel.
English
“Judeo-Christian” isn’t real.
It’s a foreign policy term by people who want to put Israel first and don’t view religion as an expression of the sacred.
Britain is a country built on Christian beliefs and values, certainly.
Nigel Farage MP@Nigel_Farage
What we witnessed in London at the historic Trafalgar Square, in a country built on Judeo-Christian values, was a group of people attempting dominance over our capital city and our culture. We are not going to surrender everything that was built over centuries and defended at great cost in two world wars for us to be a free, independent nation. The British people will not put up with this any longer — simple as.
English
@AaronBastani @TimWestall4 Christianity is very much an off-shoot of Judaism. So much more in common than with any other belief system.
English
@TimWestall4 No it’s not. Judaism disagrees with the Christ bit in Christianity. They are different faiths.

@Hybridathlete I reached that point a long time ago. I’ve realised I have a strength cap at my current weight (83kg) that is waaaay lower than the cap at 90kg.
English
@DraperOr Yea, you can get stronger without getting bigger/more muscular to a point, but eventually you have to add mass.
English
It's funny.
My whole life I've wanted to be bigger.
In junior high and high school all I wanted was to be bigger and taller.
Then in my 20s, all I wanted was to be bigger and stronger and more muscular.
Now, for the first time ever, I want to be smaller.

@SVPhillimore @BarbaraRich_law Lucky it’s not a crime to be a bad person, or men and women everywhere would be in jail.

He was a bit more than that. He was grossly deceptive and manipulative. But the family court is not a court of morals. He remains their child’s father. ‘Future faking’ is not yet a ‘thing’ family judges will entertain. He’s just another in a long line of shitty men, but the FJS does not exist to serve retribution. It is concerned with children.
English
No mention of course of the behaviour of Charlotte Proudman who greatly increased the costs of both sides by attempting to insist on a finding of fact. The father has admitted his despicable behaviour, there is no ‘winner’ here and most certainly not the GLP.
