I eat this breakfast every day. I call it Lean Body Glop and it looks like slop but it tastes delicious. Recipe: - 250g low fat Greek Yogurt - One scoop weigh protein powder - Teaspoon psyllium husk - 100g frozen fruit (strawberries, blueberries, mangoes work best) Around 300 calories, 40-50 protein, good amount of fiber. I start my day with this and it makes getting lean easy.

19 years ago, a high school basketball coach put his team manager into a game for the final four minutes. The kid had never played a single minute of competitive basketball in his life. He scored 20 points. Jason McElwain was diagnosed with severe autism at age two. He didn’t speak until he was five. He couldn’t chew solid food until he was six. He wore a nappy for most of his early childhood. As a baby, he was rigid, wouldn’t make eye contact, and hid in corners away from other children. He tried out for his school basketball team every year and got cut every time. Too small. Too slight. Barely 5’6 and about 54 kilograms. But he loved the game so much that his mum called the school and asked if there was any way he could be involved. The coach created a team manager role for him. For three years, McElwain showed up to every practice and every game. He wore a shirt and tie on match days. He ran drills, handed out water, kept stats, and cheered every basket like he’d scored it himself. On 15 February 2006, the last home game of his final school year, the coach let him suit up in a proper jersey and sit on the bench. With four minutes left and a comfortable lead, the coach sent him in. His first shot missed. His second missed. Then something shifted. He hit a three-pointer. Then another. Then another. His teammates stopped shooting entirely and just kept passing him the ball. He hit six three-pointers and a two-pointer. 20 points in four minutes. The highest scorer in the game. When the final buzzer went, the entire crowd rushed the court and lifted him onto their shoulders. His mum tapped the coach on the shoulder, in tears. “This is the nicest gift you could have ever given my son.” McElwain won the ESPY Award for Best Moment in Sports that year, beating out some of the biggest names in professional sport. He’s 36 now. He works at a local supermarket, coaches basketball, has run 17 marathons including five Boston Marathons, and travels the country speaking about never giving up. When asked about that night, his coach still gets emotional. “For him to come in and seize the moment like he did was certainly more than I ever expected. I was an emotional wreck.”

The best carb for fat loss is potatoes. They rank highest on the satiety index meaning they keep you full longer. They're modrate in calories. Many easy ways to prep them. They're also cheap. Potatoes are the best carb when cutting. Eat them.

The Church needs to be vigilant against being co-opted by any secular party or ideology. The ultimate hope is not in the political system but in a restored world, a renewed world.

Billy Donovan shares a lesson that changed how his players thought about winning. At Florida, he had a manager track how long the ball was in each player's hands during a game. He asked one of his starters: "How many minutes do you think you had the ball in your hands for the game?" The player said 15 minutes when he had played 30. The real numbers? "A backcourt player, for the most part, is probably 92% of the game gonna be played without the ball in their hands. A frontcourt player - 95% of their minutes is gonna be played without the ball in their hands." Think about that. You're playing without the ball almost the entire game. "It's amazing to me how many players focus on points, points, points. That's what goes on ESPN. That's what gets the highlights." "But if you're gonna strictly talk about winning and you're really driven and motivated by winning and competing and being a good teammate, you have to look at the fact is -- what am I doing with my 92, 93, 94, 95%?" "Am I screening? Am I running the floor? Am I on the floor for loose basketballs? Am I rebounding? Am I taking a charge?" "There's so many ways to impact the game with the amount of time you're on the floor when the ball's not in your hands." This is what separates good players from winning players. You control how you show up. You control your attitude. You control your effort. Great teammates master what they do when no one's watching - and when the ball isn't in their hands. Winning isn't about the glamour. It's about the 95%. (🎥@Coaching_U ) (🎥@brendansuhr)

Billy Donovan asked his starter a simple question: "How long do you think you had the ball in your hands tonight?" The player guessed 15 minutes. Donovan tracked the real number - it wasn't even close. Here's what he learned and why it changed his coaching: (📌Bookmark this)

Perplexity just quietly dropped a 42-page internal guide on how they actually use AI at work. What I found most useful: → How they automate the small stuff. Email, meeting prep, research (all done by AI) → Using AI to amplify your curiosity, not replace it. → Their prompting playbook is simple, practical, and genuinely good. Comment “AI” and I’ll send it to you for free.

@Mike_Jagacki Should the ever present hand checks and holding been called more? Would that have changed the outcome? Is wet-blanket defense where the game is at?

Indiana’s Game 3 defense was the most aggressive we’ve seen this series—at the point of attack and beyond. They made SGA uncomfortable (as much as you can), disrupted OKC's offense, and stole a critical win. We talk about offense showing up at home, last night, the defense did! 🧠 Want more breakdowns like this?

The Pacers also used more aggressive ball screen coverages and these are turnovers we do not see from SGA. Not sure if it was a bad game or IND wearing him down

The Pacers didn’t just steal Game 1 — Rick Carlisle coached them to it. Defensive adjustments. Offensive wrinkles. A masterclass from a veteran coach. Here’s how Carlisle outmaneuvered the Thunder 🧵🔥

Coaching is a privilege. You’re shaping habits, teaching discipline, and instilling values that last long after the final buzzer. The wins are fun, but watching your players grow into phenomenal people? That’s the real scoreboard. 🏀
