Guy espouses TRP thoughts in a video and people make a video criticizing his video. Sometimes it's best to keep this stuff to yourself.

@goodmansaysfuckyou Not entirely true. If they were smart enough they'd use Tor to keep their browsing habits obscure. Mobile affords more accessibility but it's not as easy to protect it's meta-data as a computer is. Though "easy" might not be exactly the right word.

@Akinola Depends squarely on your interests. If you don't like knitting I wouldn't recommend doing it just to meet people.

@INNASKILLZ2K20 Think I overtrained a bit. I hit 355lbs on the squat 5x3 and 350lbs 5x3 earlier in the week with a 250lbs bench 5x3. By the time I tried 360lbs guess I was just tapped out.

Might have to restructure the program with light days in between or go back into bodybuilding based hypertrophy which just bores me to tears at this point.

There's something extremely satisfying lifting heavy knowing that strength is gradually increasing compared to doing 5 by 12 sets just for looks. Feels more like an accomplishment.

Never a fun day in the gym when your mind says, "Let's get it!" when your body says "F*ck you!"" Guess it happens to us all from time to time.

@tchower

When I went into the men’s restroom to go change I saw the Asian girl at the front desk literally walk into the men’s bathroom and start cleaning and asking me if I’m going to be using the restroom anytime soon, and bent over in her yoga pants to start cleaning, which was extremely sexual, but since she works there and I’m always training with the coaches, I didn’t even react to it and just walked out of there and went on with my workout and training.

Funny, something similar just happened to me tonight. After I finished lifting passed the girl at the front desk to change in the men's room. It was near closing time and I was the only one in it so I took it as an opportunity to check myself shirtless in the mirror. Just to see where I'm developing well and what areas need improvement, as any half decent lifter should.

Out of nowhere the chick shows up with a trash can making her towards the mirrors. Now normally I'd just brush it off, accidents happen. Usually when people find themselves in that type of situation they'd backtrack and wait for the person to finish changing, then go about their business cleaning. She didn't even flinch.

@destraht Welcome to Westernization where every place becomes a copy of a copy. Can literally leave the US to another country like Canada and the big chain plazas feel exactly the same.

@tchower The slowest shot bullet is faster than the quickest jab and a concealed knife hits sharper than a blunt force stomp. Doesn't take much power to use either. Careful with that excessive bravado. It's more trouble than it's worth.

For anyone near a major US City, except New York oddly, Starting Strength Gyms are offering opportunities to become a paid apprentice between $0-$20 an hour. An absolutely great opportunity for anyone in college interested in physical therapy/ personal training/ coaching. Courses are offered to become qualified coaches for gym chain and there seems like there are opportunities to open gyms under the franchise name across the states!

Squatting at 320lbs rising and benching at 250lbs while weighing 190lbs, biggest I've ever been, with Rippetoe's book advice. Starting Strength is legitimately an effective book. Especially for learning to squat properly.
