What do you guys think of those under the desk pedals for increasing NEAT for those of us city dwellers who don’t get all the walking from our day jobs like we used to? I was probably walking 5-6 mi a day pre-pandemic and now I’m getting half of that if I’m lucky and making a serious effort. I...
Yeah I know they’re talking about above what’s anticipated...isn’t that the whole point? I don’t know about the credibility of that one particular piece of scholarship but it’s just a data point to get the conversation going.
100% agree. A lot of people saw this and used it to fit their own narrative. Meanwhile it was like God forbid we include social services that help these sort of conditions as “essential business” and God forbid we in the US follow the lead of some other countries and give people more than a...

Well we’re dealing with an unknown quantity that you can really only estimate. Just like deaths after hurricanes for example. We finally come to a number and people should under that the number isn’t sent down as the truth from the heavens but is more so a function of us...
If a lockdown throws someone back into addiction and they die from an OD or rated depression induced suicide then I say that’s not a direct death from covid but it’s a figure we should still keep in mind when discussing the death total.
A lot of deaths may have occurred eventually or under the right circumstances lining up and it’s just that covid is that perfect storm. I’m thinking of the clinically obese, people with unmanaged diabetes, etc. In those instances, your co-morbidities are the underlying cause but you would not...

From what I understood, viruses mutate over time to become more contagious but less fatal to increase viability of the host. Essentially don’t kill the host so fast and spread to more hosts = ideal life for a virus. However, I haven’t heard that recently with regards to this mutation (heard it...
Huh is the homie but the products are a little underdosed and I think he still uses carcinogen arcoline in one of the preworkouts. I don’t doubt for a second though that the quality of ingredients is top notch but it’s how much of those ingredients in each product that’s the problem.
Yup. Our garbage man growing up became really close with my grandpa and told us he worked some overtime and pulled in almost $80k or so a year. Not bad for driving the local truck, and this was mid 2000s.
Sounds like the typical conservative response when they get at stumped tbh. I don’t see you coming up with any better ideas. Not like we’ll solve the country’s problems on this board at all but still.
Yup. I’m from SoFlo (PBC) and can confirm they get paid decent but the nationwide we can find a bunch of first responders paid low wages. Teachers is especially true. I remember one told me they made under $40k around 2014. And people wonder why we get low rankings in education compared to other...
Lol. So I guess because I think we should both train and pay police more that somehow means I need to go in there and show them? God forbid we all just agree the men and women in blue need more training ffs. If people can’t get off their partisan high horses to enact some common sense reforms...
Well somehow they exist just like teachers, right? I personally think we should pay both (and firefighters) more to attract better talent and show more respect for their work but that’s a separate issue. End of the day people will join up and they should be trained adequately, which they...

I know it’s Buzzfeed and they have an agenda to push but I thought this was an interesting take from instructors and employees at gyms, especially since it includes mine in DC.
This. You can spend time helping people - that is commendable. But spare yourself from dealing with ignorant trolls and focus on the people actually open to a conversation who you could help, ya know?
Well we do want cops to have more training and it is ridiculous that they aren’t continually training right? Also don’t think we really need to ask them if they want more training - no one likes training lol. I didn’t say the 20% though, that was his recommendation. But 80:20 ratio of work to...
