The US military is going to start giving testosterone to soldiers, sailors and airmen—and you’re blackpilling?
Honestly, if you think this came out of nowhere and has nothing to do with what anonymous accounts post on Twitter, you’re entitled to that erroneous belief.
Have always looked at heavy deadlifts as a gateway drug to more hypertrophy.
Makes your core very strong; easier to stabilize and get more reps on shoulders, squats, lunges, rdls, hamstring curls etc.
Not sure if that’s a universal tho.
@anymanfitness My favorite part about these isn’t that it’s ridiculous on its face, it’s that most of these guys grew up on next to no money and still had their families get by.
Implying there is no middle ground between baseline comfortable living and $4mm in living expenses yearly.
@CoffeeBlackMD@K9Cognoscente TRT got me thru some incredibly stressful years.
Felt like a candle in the wind, went from 205 to 170, sick all the time, no energy for non-work items.
Not like everything is perfect now but it gave me a puncher’s chance.
Think I just blew up my relationship with a fight and I feel like I’m dying.
The adrenaline rush then crash coupled with emotional damage is not something I am accustomed to dealing with.
Very hard to establish psychological stability and clarity
The D3 basketball players I know all have ridiculously good attitudes they’re just defective in a few ways that the D1 guys are not.
I promise any readers that it’s mostly a talent gap between the pools of players.
I worked with a D1 player and a D3 player this morning.
On paper...
They looked almost identical.
6'4 200 pounds...
Both had elite bat speed. Both had power. Both were physically gifted.
But there was one difference.
Every time the D3 player mishit a ball...
He complained.
He got frustrated.
He pouted.
Then he'd struggle for the next 3 or 4 swings.
Pop-up.
Ground ball.
Weak contact.
The D1 player?
He'd mishit one.
Make an adjustment
...And move on.
No emotion.
No drama.
Just the next pitch.
It reminded me of something I learned playing professional baseball...
Sometimes the biggest difference between two players isn't their talent.
It's the conversation they're having with themselves in their head after they fail.
Your bat speed matters.
Your swing matters.
But the operating system between your ears matters just as much.
The best hitters I've been around don't waste energy explaining why they failed.
They spend their energy figuring out what to do on the next pitch.

P.S. The next time you mishit a ball, don't ask, "What's wrong with me?"
Ask, "What's my adjustment?"
P.P.S. - If you enjoyed this, and thought it was helpful, share it.

Never did I ever see “Nick Fuentes is to 2026 what Jordan Peterson was to 2017” coming.
What does the next iteration look like?
“Mecha-Hitler red pilled me but my ideology is beyond his now”
Nick Fuentes red pilled me, but my ideology grew beyond his. I now look at him as a grifting beta male faggot who doesn’t have the pair of balls required to invoke any real change in this country.
