Fun new game: what condition would require a hand iv, cause symptoms like the ones we’re seeing, and require a medical procedure that doesn’t lay you out for weeks but has enough of an outside chance of killing you people get their niceties in just in case?

Is there theoretically a way someone other than the mayor could “invite” them? Don’t think so but they could be looking for a weak link in state gov

Also, Matt isn’t describing “deal making,” he’s describing “being a wimp who gets rolled by the alpha dog.” Guys like Trump in a business setting treat a desire to deal as a sign of weakness.

Agreed! I don’t know enough of the hard science to say it with confidence, but my general read is both produce largely similar results
Goof Off, King (@cruft.bsky.social) reply parent
My real, non-nerd answer is when in doubt, find a weight that gives you a 7/10 exertion at 8-12 reps and calibrate from there. Jumping into high weight at low reps or spamming a movement incorrectly for 25 reps are both good ways to hurt/irritate your body
Goof Off, King (@cruft.bsky.social) reply parent
Also matters what you’re training. Lateral raises are best served with 10-15 reps, anything less risks injury. Deadlift? You can go into the 3-5 rep range or lower depending on the program
Goof Off, King (@cruft.bsky.social) reply parent
Both are good for different things. More sets with (relatively) lighter weight is good for size, fewer heavier is good for strength. At the end of the day, what matters most is rate of perceived exertion. Also commonly agreed that over 20 reps is endurance training.
