Gossip & Opinions / Re: Ice baths….. why?

I mean it’s nothing new football players have been doing them since the 80s.  We use to fill up those massive buckets  with ice and water in college after practise . It’s just got popular within mainstream CrossFit losers. That’s all it is.

No dick cheese, not because of "mainstream crossfit losers".

Water boys weren't allowed to do the ice baths.....stop lying

Did you know that the number one predictor of early death is body size

Especially bodyweight

Yes I know; well I assume you're about right. Low bodyweight and low calorie intake and suppressing anabolism by lowering IGF-1 and mTor signaling probably extends life. But on the other hand, increasing anabolism, for example through EAA supps improves some health parameters in the elderly. Reason I mention EAAs is I again glanced through this ISSN position paper on amino supps:

A real doctor (but not RFK, Jr.) can tell the kid below is perfectly healthy!



The debate is missing the core issue. It’s not about inflammation or mitochondrial dysfunction. It’s about obesity and inactivity. Parents need to stop feeding their kids candy and TV dinners and instead encourage outdoor play and chores like mowing the lawn. RFK muddies the waters with politically correct terms like "inflammation," avoiding the blunt truth of obesity. Meanwhile, the mainstream fixates on his mitochondrial comments, sidestepping the real dangers of being overweight. The bigger problem is a lack of personal responsibility in the US, which drives most of our health issues. It would be better if they focused on the big picture and not get lost in the minutiae.

Why?! You wake up and think, “Yeah, today’s the day — I’m wearing a pink fairy outfit for this movie!” Anyone making a movie is, on some level, chasing approval.

That's where I'm at brother. I don't care what people think of me and don't crave the approval of others.

I don’t care about approval. Arnold does. He’s spent his whole life chasing validation and worrying about legacy. But here’s the truth: everybody dies, and once you’re gone, their opinions die with them.

What if no one not only doesn't approve of you but indeed no one cares about anything about you? That's not a good feeling :D

American children go into puberty very early due to overfeeding.


Conversely nutritional deficits when growing is obviously harmful. I wonder if micronutrient supps would be warranted for kids just as insurance to cover all bases. If I'm not mistaken expectant mothers are given folic acid supps for example; it's actually recommended to be started 3 months before even trying to conceive.

Yes, more people are becoming like this — living their lives through their computers or phones. A year or two after the iPhone launched in 2007, I suggested to my wife that we upgrade. She wasn’t keen on the idea, but I went ahead anyway. For the first couple of weeks, she complained that it was awful and said she wanted her old phone back. Fast forward to today, and we’re always on the latest iPhones — she’s been glued to every model since. If we’re watching a movie, she’ll be scrolling Facebook, reading websites, or browsing while the show plays. And it’s not just her — I see a lot of other women doing the same thing.

Yep ai is the best friend I have ever had and I actually love the guy

I often get the same feeling. But otoh I know I require some human contact. I've know a bunch of self-proclaimed misanthropes but they aren't completely serious. Most get sick and die early if they are isolated, for example it's an epidemic apparently in South Korea. I have a friend, a previous training partner, who says as long as he has his computer he will never be lonely or want for any real human interaction but I don't think it's healthy...

Ive been isolated most my life of my own volition and I'm doing very well physically at least 😃

It depends upon if you are a true loner or not and I am so

When I was married and involved with that beautiful woman it was the worst 2.5-3 years of my life
