@JustinRose99 @McIlroyRory The hardest person to beat is the one who just won’t give up

Watch this (whole thread), then explain why you’re OK with a man beating a woman in public for your entertainment. This isn’t sport. From the bullying cheat in red all the way up to the organisers who allowed this to happen, this is men revelling in their power over women.

I heard that the way you go viral on this site is by making a big list of things you have to do. Let me try.

-You should mostly eat food you know is healthy, there is no magic food.

-You should also occasionally let yourself eat delicious food you know isn’t healthy. Otherwise what’s the point?

-You should be training with some kind of resistance (your bodyweight works), no matter your age

-You should do something to get your heart going and get a schvitz a few times a week

-You should know there isn’t a magic pill, a hack, or a diet and most of that crap people put in their lists is just mean to confuse you so you pay them to figure it out for you with whatever they are selling

-You should also know my daily newsletter is free, is allergic to bullshit, and includes weekly workouts, the latest health and fitness news, and motivation from me.

-Don’t worry, if you paid one of those people to tell you jumping in cold water or taking 29 pills every morning will get you fit, I’ll still be here in three months when you decide it’s time to try something that works. The only trick I know is that you have to work, it hasn’t changed in 76 years and it won’t change.

@tariqpanja @sportingintel Crazy situ where a footballer can be banned for something his club is actively promoting

[Simon Saunders @Simon71]

@SuperLeagueTri That’s a straight dq. Even after the race should be a dq

[Simon Saunders @Simon71]

@tri247 If there is a risk of the Paris Olympic Triathlon being shortened due to poor water quality they need to move it now. Imagine the 100m in the stadium being shortened to 66m because of poor track quality

#MountainHardware tent fail with storms forecast today

[Simon Saunders @Simon71]

@hardestgeezer Yeah I think you’ll do it but I voted no to give you the motivation to prove me wrong

[Simon Saunders @Simon71]

@Alan_Couzens I’ve had a saying for years with my athletes when going deep in a workout they need to remind themselves that just because they could it doesn’t mean they should

[Simon Saunders @Simon71]

@GaryLineker @IanWright0 respect 👏👏

[Simon Saunders @Simon71]

@coachgambetta As a coach it’s important to know what to say and when not to say it

[Simon Saunders @Simon71]

@LydiardsWay Always amazes me how many coaches think an interval is the effort

[Simon Saunders @Simon71]

@IRONMANtri Having given penalty head referee should have overruled it and allowed Sam to continue

[Simon Saunders @Simon71]

@IRONMANtri Obviously just what we all want to see then you penalise him for no error of his. Ref couldn’t have made a worse decision

[Simon Saunders @Simon71]

@IRONMANtri Buy ‘finisher’ gear before you do the race? 🙅‍♂️
