Did the 5 year old bring up the topic? I have a seven year old and can't imagine this is anything he'd start a conversation about or is even aware of

It went:
kid: mummy can you tell the person who owns this car that there's a penny stuck in the vent
mum: you know if you don't know if it's a boy or a girl you can say "them"
kid: ok. If I don't know they are a boy or a girl I just call them by their name.

Also, you'd be surprised. My girlfriend's kid was pretty gender neutral in everything until he went to nursery, and then started to be told by teachers and other kids that "these are the boys toys", "these are the girls toys", "thats a girls haircut", and then started to come home and change what toys they wanted to play with. Kids learn this stuff consciously because people tell them, I think.

Literally had a chat with a 5 year old about this, trying to put it into terms a child would understand.

Me: Well sometimes people aren't really boys or girls.
Her: Why?
Me: Well maybe they just don't really feel like a boy or girl. Maybe there are people who look like girls but like to do things that boys do.
Her: But girls can do anything.

Outwoked by a 5 year old. And conservatives think these topics are too complicated for kids.

Some people need to gain. What's your stats and diet?

6ft1, 187lbs. I'm not skinny, but I train and I want to pack on some serious bulk and enter my daddy years.

I'll be honest, I don't meticulously track my diet and I'm aware that's the issue. I hit my protein goal every day and I just try to get in extra meals, but I found on holiday I was eating at everyone else's pace rather than my own, so rather than 5 meals a day I'd get in 2 or 3.

The hardest job I ever had was account managing 50 marketing campaigns for a digital marketing startup, and I made nearly half that.

That said there are perks to being in a comfortable office space with amenities. I dont miss washing red dirt out of my fingernails every day.

Pinky you ever try squat shoes? Really helped me with my back angle. I bought Do-win's like 15 years ago and they're still holding up. I could never squat without them

Not sure if you can see in my first vid but I have some Adidas powerlifts on there. Really helped me get low in the squat, but I still need to work on keeping it tight when it gets heavy.



Looks pretty damn solid. Only thing I notice is that it looks like maybe your back angle is opening too soon. If I remember correctly from what I read from Rippetoe, the back angle should stay the same until the bar hits your knees, then you open up. So more leg drive at the bottom

But I'd wait for the guru PPP to chime in with the real answer lol

I've had some conflicting advice here, so I dunno. Some say my hips come up too high, others say just start at a higher angle.

I've seen much worse than that, but some things you can do: more ab work like ab rolling and planks, get a belt for use on your top-set, think about sitting back on your heels more and rising with your shoulders first, and experiment with a low-bar set-up vs high-bar.

Thanks! I actually found an article by greg nuckols talking about ways to actively brace better, and it included using planks to wake things up a little before squatting.

I don't think I have the mobility for high bar squats, my femurs are pretty long and my ankles stiff af.

I think there is a valid argument to make against tone-policing, but sometimes that needle swings too far the other way.

Yes I agree that you being outwardly angry and visibly upset about a topic doesn't fundamentally invalidate your point of view.

But no, I don't agree that it's productive for people to just lose their fucking minds over every talking point, and if they truly wanted to move the topic forward they would at least engage in it rather than falling back on ad hominems and strawmen arguments - provided the other person is engaging in good faith.
