@RachelReevesMP Yes, you've used our hard-earned money to buy over priced toast, well done.

@Mark_Sisson The physique tells you very little except that he has average genes for aesthetics.

@drkaanyl @grok “Strength is a whole separate thing” is laughably wrong. After the novice phase, hypertrophy is tightly correlated with strength increases.

[ORDraper @DraperOr]

So massively wrong. It’s weird that people can be so wrong in an age of infinite free information.

Kolları cılız, üst gövdesi abartı değil sadece atletik, kasları tel tel görünmüyor

AMA

İyi zamanında olan, güçlü görüntülü, şişmiş vücut geliştiriciler ile aynı kiloyu basıyor.

Adamlar da şaşkın hayatında bir kez bile bu ağırlığı ve bu egzersizi denememiş bir kaya tırmanıcısının gücü karşısında şok oluyorlar.

Kas gelişimi/hipertrofisi her zaman güç gelişimi demek değildir. Güç apayrı bir şeydir. Kas hipertrofisi potansiyel kuvvet yaratır ama gerçek kuvvet büyük ölçüde sinir sistemi + tendon + teknik üçlüsüne bağlıdır.

Kaslarınız travmaya bağlı olarak hipertrofi denilen bir adaptasyonla hacmini arttırır. Kaslar bölünen hücreler değildir hipertrofi ile hücrelerin hacmi şişer, durursanız atrofi ile hücreler eski boyutlarına geri gelir. Bu tamamen fizyolojik bir durumdur.

Kas gücü liflerin sayısı (bu genetiktir), hücresel mitokondri, bağ doku elementlerinin profili, kalp ve akciğer gücü ve en önemlisi, kuvvet büyük ölçüde nöral adaptasyonlara (motor ünite rekrütmanı, ateşleme hızı, senkronizasyon, antagonist inhibisyon) bağlıdır yani sinirsel adaptasyonlar ile orantılıdır. Güç ayrı kas ayrı şeylerdir.

Saf hipertrofi istiyorsan → 6-12 tekrar aralığı, daha yüksek hacim, metabolik stres.
Saf kuvvet istiyorsan → 1-5 tekrar, ağır yük, uzun dinlenme, nöral odak (düşük hacim, yüksek yoğunluk).
İkisini birlikte istiyorsan → Periodizasyon yap (örneğin blok periodizasyon).

This piece suggests that because a German hotel had had a bad week with fake bookings, they somehow, when they *meant* to say, “sorry can we just run an ID verification check?” said instead “No Jews allowed”.
An easy mistake to make I guess.
NARRATOR: This is not an easy mistake to make.

@BarbaraRich_law @FaringForwards @Dannythefink He’s great, but the Times is horrendous.

Group-based grievance politics is a road to disaster.

Kemi Badenoch has known this, and had the courage to say it aloud, for years.

Even when it was hard. Even when it was unfashionable. Even when she was attacked for it.

She was right then, and she’s right now.

This guy! Who is proposing not to tax “the rich”?

[David__Osland @David__Osland]

I'd rather vote for a Labour MP who wants the rich to be taxed so that benefits don't get cut than a Labour MP who wants benefits to be cut so the rich don't get taxed

[Cut My Tax @CutMyTaxUK]

@AndrewHWestern @UKLabour Andrew, the country is broke. We're spending a £110bn a year on servicing the debt. You've shoved up taxes to absurd levels and yet you still think it appropriate to hand out free breakfasts.

[ORDraper @DraperOr]

@SebMilbank Avowedly religious. A man with so much ego is very unlikely to have any genuine faith.

[Matt Chorley @MattChorley]

I owe Nigel Farage an apology.

During last night’s Newsnight we covered the murder of Henry Nowak and the political reaction to the case, including discussing Nigel Farage’s comments about “pure, cold rage”.

However I referred to “white cold rage”. This was a mistake on my part, a misremembering of the quote. It didn’t change the content of the interview but I should have got the quote right. I apologise to Nigel Farage for this.

[Robert Colvile @rcolvile]

Jesus Christ. Massive tax rises and it doesn’t even make a dent, because spending just goes brrrr https://t.co/rraviQMojF

[ORDraper @DraperOr]

@JohnHundeslit Definitely don’t.

[ORDraper @DraperOr]

@Manterik @CutMyTaxUK Easy to say when he pays almost no tax.

[ORDraper @DraperOr]

@AaronBastani Regime Bastani hates Britain having any military.

[Kosher @koshercockney]

Wow @Jacob_Rees_Mogg just absolutely tore @cenkuygur apart using Cenk’s own words.

And of course Cenk realises this, panics and does what he always does by just blabbing as loudly as he can over the top of Rees Mogg.

[Julia Hartley-Brewer @JuliaHB1]

Labour folk accusing @Nigel_Farage and Reform of exploiting Henry Nowak's murder for political gain really need to take a long hard look in the mirror.

‘Early marriage’

[Yehuda Teitelbaum @chalavyishmael]

You really can't make this up.

ITV News was in the middle of filming a report on antisemitism in Golders Green when one of the interviewees got a call from his daughter.

She and her friends had just been targeted on a bus by boys shouting "Adolf Hitler," giving Nazi salutes, and telling the girls: "Hitler didn't manage to get you, but we will."

What a sad state of affairs.

Everything wrong with the country is downwind of wet conservatives. Everything.
