@NBTiller Superfoods… 🤬😖

If the powers that be are going to fundamentally change the functions and funding of America, can we finally end tax exemption for religious organizations, please?

[Jim Rutberg @JRutberg]

@GovofCO FFS. Can’t we connect COS and DEN airports with high speed rail, paired with light rail or frequent/adaptable bus service to neighborhoods first? Then expand to Fort Collins and Pueblo. Could be faster and cheaper than connecting flights, expand flight options for COS, etc.

I don’t expect this situation to improve at all.

What's (Not) in Your Supplement?
The formal lab analysis is here. Eight brands, detailed statistics, and one extreme outlier. We found a systematic bias toward less energy and carbohydrates in the gels compared to their labels.

This Tyson vs. Paul fight show/coverage is awful, amateur hour announcing. I’ve heard more expertise and insight from weekend business park criterium announcers.

@ACShilton Congratulations!

You don’t need a bigger home. You need less stuff.

One takeout (not delivery) order of run-of-the-mill chicken fried rice should not cost $14.99.

Congratulations @FaulknerKristen on Olympic Gold! I had the pleasure of interviewing Kristen for @usacycling a while back. Her story and pathway to pro cycling are inspiring for all. https://t.co/8onCgKZmZC

Finally! A dent in the armor of the Earlybird Industrial Complex.

🦉The early bird gets the worm, but the night owl gets the mental edge.

🧠 A study of 26,000 people finds people with evening chronotypes scored higher on intelligence, reasoning, and memory tests.

Have workplaces caught on?

@NBTiller Nutrition equivalence aside, replacing food with supplements/shakes/powders eliminates the process of cooking, the flavors and textures and joys of eating, and social interactions of eating together. Food is a cultural and social touchstone as well as energy.

BCAA Supplements: The Prime Emperor(s) Have No Clothes

I have BCAAs as #3 (maybe 4) on my list of useless supplements, but they're like gum on your shoe, thanks to marketing!

Key points:
- BCAAs' impact on muscle protein synthesis is minimal with adequate dietary protein.

This is the level of discourse and professionalism in the US House of Representatives? I don’t care what your party affiliation is, this whole episode is a shitshow.

If the greatest ultra-runner of all time (arguably) considers our digital magazine an essential resource, I'm confident you will, too.

We devoted this entire issue to showing you the science that describes the risks you face from supplements, over-the-counter drugs, and prohibited methods, and to provide resources you can use to align your behaviors with your stance on anti-doping.

... honest athletes are completely unprepared for the discipline and attention to detail required to comply with the very rules they're clamoring for.

Airline overhead compartments should be eliminated, small backpack and purses under the seat only. Twenty minutes to board and 20 minutes to exit is out of hand. Check all the bags and be done with this.
