BREAKING: In a stunning moment, JD Vance was just booed relentlessly at the Olympics. Wow. The Trump-Vance admin is humiliating us on the world stage.

@KenSimCity Disagree with you on this one. Way too many negligent dog owners ruining that park.

We fully stand with Vancouver dog owners in opposition to Metro Vancouver's proposed new restrictions to off leash areas in Pacific Spirit Park.
I will be writing a letter to Metro Vancouver's parks committee calling on them to vote down this shortsighted proposal.

When I told my story in Oct about being fired by the BC Conservatives, I mentioned I was 34 weeks pregnant at the time. I got a few comments saying this was irrelevant. But this goof @JohnRustad4BC is openly admitting he deliberately fired me before I could go on mat leave.

If I had to summarize the first year of President Trump's second term in one word, it would be: dignity. From his foreign policy to his domestic policy to his immigration policy, the goal has been restoring the dignity of the forgotten working-class men & women of this country.

We're looking at it all wrong: we should all THANK @bariweiss -- for ensuring that this eventually becomes the most watched @60Minutes segment of all time.

@JeremyFrisch I am 65. I would absolutely love to workout/play like that.

I’ll try to make this as crystal clear as possible, because much of the strength and conditioning field still views resistance training through a very narrow lens—a weight room filled with barbells and dumbbells.
I’ve read the research. I’ve seen the papers. Resistance training for pre-adolescent children consistently shows positive outcomes across the board. That part isn’t controversial anymore.
Where the confusion lies is what actually counts as resistance training for kids.
In our industry, “resistance training” has become almost synonymous with external load. And to be clear—external loading through dumbbells, barbells, kettlebells, bands, and medicine balls is absolutely safe and beneficial when properly coached.
But resistance training does not begin and end there.
Sprinting, jumping, grappling, tackling and blocking, climbing, crawling, carrying, throwing, parkour, gymnastics, and Ninja-style activities are all legitimate, highly effective forms of resistance training. These activities challenge force production, absorption, coordination, and control—often at levels far more complex than a single-plane lift.
More importantly, they’re fun, engaging, and developmentally appropriate. They expose kids to resistance through their own body weight, gravity, momentum, and interaction with the environment—across multiple planes of motion and constantly changing contexts.
If the goal is to build strong, resilient, adaptable athletes, then resistance training for children must be viewed as a movement experience, not just a loading strategy.

This bro-science retard does not know how to read paper:
"At baseline, the mean age of participants was 61.6 years (SD 7.9)".
So many people comment without knowing what they are talking about. Increasing survival of senior citizens is NOT increasing athletic performance.

Taleb is making a big mistake interpreting this paper. This paper doesn’t test zone 1-2 vs. 3-5 or easy vs. intense exercise. It defines vigorous exercise as equivalent to jogging at 15 minute mile pace… For the uninitiated, you can walk at that pace… The actual findings of the paper: any type of exercise, be it easy or hard is more efficient than a slow walk, at providing health benefits. Great. No brainer. But it says nothing about whether a slow jog is better or worse than some hard intervals. It doesn’t test this. Even though folks are quick to try to say it does. All it says is: what nearly everyone would define as exercising is better than causal movement. I’ve seen several other folks get this wrong. It’s why definitions are so important here. Because the non-expert sees “vigorous” and assumes it’s hard exercise. When in this study it is literally a walk in the park… It’s a fine study. But it backs up zero of the claims that are being attached to it on social media.

Just biked by the PNE and got a closer look at the new amphitheater under construction! 🏗️ It’s going to be a game-changer for Vancouver’s entertainment scene. Can’t wait for the Freedom Mobile Arch to open! 🎶 #PNE #Vancouver #NewBeginnings pne.ca/freedom-mobile…

I might lose followers for this, but...
I'm sorry, I just don't like when off-leash dog runs up to me, and I get the old - "Don't worry he's friendly!"
I'm sure he is, but I'm just trying to go for a run here... That's actual drool on me...
I know, I know... But, I just can't.

@raghu_venugopal @petehoekstra @USAmbCanada An embarrassment to the United States and ambassadors throughout the world. Usually ambassadors have more class.

We've made it a focus to work with athletes regardless of age or ability.
On our team we don't have a "past your prime" mindset... and that means it can take time to figure out the path forward... But we always find that path.
