I’m not kidding at all. I’ve used that superset for more than twenty-five years. I don’t have an abductor machine at home so I make do. IMO…pull-throughs are the best glute movement I’ve ever done.

I’ve come to realize that my parents are two of the most racist and homophobic people I know

Tell them your dating a female of whatever race they dislike the most. Watch their eyes explode.

How some (definitely not all) Chinese people view Africans/African Americans 
I got that bit. I was just thinking how good that detergent was. That shirt was sparkling

literally!!! The ad was actually pulled very soon after airing- not because of Chinese outcry though

I just sat and watched like 15 minutes of racist Asian television.
Good morning!

Funnily enough, before the tripartite pact, hitler apparently admired Chinese culture and did not consider them subhuman

Oh, confessions!
So last year I started a private practice and for many reasons found myself at my all-time non-pregnant highest weight. I’ve been pretty dialed in since September or so with my diet and exercise, but I’ve had two vacations, a ton of company, and so on. I always do really well during the work week, but have a history of falling apart on the weekends and when something unusual is going on because I’m a gluttonous pig with limited self-control.
Anyway, last night we went to an Italian restaurant and I ordered a small pizza with my favorite toppings, which are mushrooms, peppers, onions, and ham (not so bad, choice-wise). It was ABSOLUTELY DELICIOUS. And I only ate two slices! Historically I knock back 4/6 slices without feeling overfull, and I can and have eaten the entire thing.
My confession is that I feel like I’ve achieved this amazing success, like I’d pulled a dozen orphans and five kittens out of a burning fire.

I struggle with the same problem! Whenever there’s a social function with remotely good meat, I go hard no matter how much I tell myself I’ll have good control this time
AND I spent an hour on the treadmill processing family bullshit in addition to some kettlebell work - so I my appetite was running at full speed.
I exercised self-control - for maybe the first time!

I don’t know! That’s why I’m so awestruck at myself. TWO SMALL SLICES OF PIZZA on a day when I didn’t have the stomach flu! Remarkable!
I should maybe confess that I had a salad and a pint of Coors Light before the pizza came, but that sort of thing has never stopped me before. The pizza was GOOD, and I can eat a lot.
Further confession: I am not above shameless self-aggrandizing!

So… I’m feeling pretty crap and want to take the day off…BUT… I’ll be on a plane Thursday and celebrating with my grandparents next weekend… should I take today off?
Yes. The world doesn’t end if you miss even three days. Thursday is a long way off - you’re going to kill yourself every day between now and then against a probable day of excess eating?
We call that exercise anorexia.

Three days… 
I just don’t want to set a precedent of taking the day off just because “I don’t feel like it “

Yes, I say commit mentally to taking the day off! I find that when I’m indecisive about going I stress and obsess about it and even if I don’t end up working out I’ve wasted all that mental energy worrying. Chill out for a day or three.
