  1. Yes, on compound movements, but no on squats three times a week. My girly legs just don't have the time to fit that in my week and adequately recover. I do start my weight routines with compound movements, and save isolating exercises (e.g., bicep curls, triceps extensions, hamstring curls, etc.) for the end. And for compound movements, I think it's better to find exercises where you move in space, as opposed to keeping your torso stable on a bench or chair. Things like pullups, pushups, lunges, step ups, and yes, squats. I find they really get my heart rate up.
  2. Yeah, North is always solid for a chain.
  3. Cool. So the video will drop around the same time at the Matt Gaetz indictment?
  4. Following up on my last post, I found a couple articles on how lower body strength can help with cognitive function as we age. I learned a new word: hippocampus Link Link Link Again, don't skip leg day.
  5. Voted at Austin City Hall at noon. No line. Fuck you MAGA.
  6. #ripwolfgang. Still bringing the laughs.
  7. I was hooked instantly. When they're around the house, I find it hard to eat less than half a bag in one sitting.
  8. I was at that game, too. But I can't rank it as one of the worst home losses I've witnessed. aggy came into the game having beaten Texas 8 of the last 9, during a period when (other than the 1990 season) the Longhorns had been wallowing in mediocrity, and we had lost to mother fucking Rice earlier that year. Nobody I knew really expected to beat aggy, so the ass kicking was not a surprise like a lot of the other home losses I've attended. Yeah, the loss sucked. But given our program mentality at the time, the reaction was more along the lines of, "yeah, seems about right." I'd rank the 2006 loss to aggy worse than that one. Colt was still not 100% after Greg David decided to run him into a pile at Kansas State. But aggy had a pathetic offense, yet we couldn't figure out Stephen McGee's hero mode on the ground, and the chef's kiss was Colt McCoy getting knocked out of the game on a cheap shot.
  9. “Don’t skip leg day” becomes even more important as you grow older, especially exercises that require more balance. Like step ups and Bulgarian split squats.
  10. He’s desperate to find a campaign stop where there will be no boos.
  11. Her defamation claim will end up being “It’s maliciously false to state that I fucked him. I just blew him.”
  12. That's textbook SteelShank thread.
  13. We better start Arch Manning from here on out or we'll never win another game this season!!!!
  14. Grew up an hour and a half from Greenville, and during my senior year (Fall of 1991) I visited a friend who was a freshman at ECU and went to a football game. I remember a mostly full and very loud and energetic crowd, although they had a damn good team that year -- Jeff Blake at QB, Robert Jones at LB -- finishing 11-1 with a No. 9 ranking.
