I am a big fan of Kissinger. Rock star.

I'm curious, at what altitude would one expect to see effects on exertion? 1,400 m seems kind of high to me by comparison to places I've lived...

Not sure whether I'm missing something, or you're making a joke off of belief/faith here... I chuckled, though, at the prospect of the latter.

I think I see what happened - mberkor, you're saying that the belt they recommended is bigger than you expected, even for your current size, not just...

Come on, wal - I'm donning my Captain Pedantic suit here - you're being sloppy with definitions here. In modern English usage, "faith" has a...

Hey, I resemble that remark... ...though I do prefer "Motor Moron", a term I freely admit to learning from the same author. The alliteration...

Does the bar stay level and move evenly, without rotation around the vertical axis?

I'm my own experience, I've found that where I get sore, and how that soreness manifests has changed over time. Recently, I consistently got a kind...

Singles impose the most stress PER REP. That doesn't mean the most productive stress overall, in the total context of a workout. Experience has...

That would make sense. I'll admit that I'm currently ignorant on how far down the body breaks proteins during digestion...I'm guessing it's no...

As the late George Carlin once said, "Formal conspiracy is unnecessary when interests converge."

Given that what makes essential amino acids essential is that they are the ones that the body cannot synthesize on its own, and glycine is not one of...

The big question is, why are you considering it? Is 3x a week not getting you progress? Is 3x a week wearing you out? Is it a logistical reason? ...

I'm very sorry, Mike - grace, mercy, and peace to you and your family.

Well played, sir.

In my own experience, a lot of machines are a lot better at jacking up my shoulders and other joints, too.

They told me two weeks for mine. In the grand scheme of things, if you're otherwise strongly compliant, two weeks is a minor interruption. I...

Every little bit helps those of us on Team Vietnamese Sausage Hands, as well.

The local grocery store surprised me by carrying Wolf - both generations in our household have now been introduced to this fine culinary delight. To...

We know that? What, from the cave painting series, Thog's Encyclopedia of Primitive Bodybuilding? No one has argued that the 20-rep squat...

First, I believe George Floyd died by his own actions, and that’s a shame. Furthermore that he died from a rare adrenaline producing tumor in his...

This is a really good point, Eric. I suddenly understand why my boot camp platoon all graduated super swole...

I get your point, Gene - you're granting Dr. Schoenfeld's assertion, and showing that lower reps still win out for other reasons, even if he's right....

This class of drug is used for abnormal sleep disruption, right? Your sleep disruption, however, sounds perfectly normal, given what you did to...

I did a cut once, for similar reasons to your friend's, and tried doing it via keto. It worked really well for stripping off weight, and markedly...
