Quante volte vi è capitato di rifiutare una ragazza o di fare semplicemente qualcosa che a lei non garbava e lei ti accusasse subito di essere gay, oppure se ti comporti in maniera poco maschile secondo i suoi gusti ti viene detto che già che ci sei ti puoi truccare e mettere i tacchi. Tutte provocazioni che alludono a misoginia e omofobia da persone che si professano più illuminate e aperte di mente, ma appena sentono che il loro ego è ferito si trasformano nel membro più radicale di Futuro Nazionale. Faccio questo post semplicemente perché molte donne non se ne rendono conto: le microaggressioni e gli insulti verbali sono comunque sessismo e omofobia. Poi, se per insultarmi come uomo tu mi dici che sono una donna, allora non so quale gruppo stai offendendo. Questo è riferito esclusivamente alle donne che si professano ''aperte di mente'',tolleranti e più mature degli altri, se sei apertamente omofoba e sessista sei una persona terribile ma almeno sei coerente.

I am 19 years old and have been going to the gym for 1.8 years, though I was inconsistent last summer because I went on vacation for 3 months. I worked out as much as possible and gained a great amount of muscle, moving from 54 kg to 72 kg at a height of 1.73 m. Over the past 3 months, I cut down to 69 kg.

The problem is that I cannot get my abs to look visible when relaxed. Even when I was skinny, my abs and veins were not visible, whereas I noticed that most skinny people used to have visible abs and veins at a low weight. Is my set point too high? I feel like I have a great chest, arms, and back, but my lower abs and hips are still a bit soft. If I had to estimate, I would say I am around 14 to 15% body fat.

I have been in a calorie deficit for months now, but I have only lost 3 kg of fat. My diet mostly depends on what my mother cooks because I am starting university and do not have enough money to buy my own food. However, my mother is aware of my goals, so she cooks healthy food for me most of the time.

I only started training my abs when I realized I needed them to look more aesthetic. I have been training them every other day for the past 3 months, and I feel like the hypertrophy work is starting to pay off.

I have to be honest, I did not watch the Wizards a lot last season because they were the worst team in the NBA, and more often than not they were playing to lose.

I am hearing good things about Alex Sarr and Kyshawn George, and honestly, the few times I watched them play they impressed me. But what about Coulibaly? He played on the same team as Wemby in France and rose into the middle of the lottery. People thought that picking him at 7 was a reach, but his potential and physical attributes were intriguing. I remember the start of 24/25 was really impressive because he was averaging 18 points and showing offensive improvement but he fell off after that and pretty much stayed the same. The system and culture around him did not help him either, and I also feel like he is not as good of a defender as his physical attributes might suggest.

Will he still be a priority for the Wizards in the next few seasons, or will players like AJ, George, Johnson, and Sarr cause him to become a bench guy or maybe even get traded to another team?

fra 2 settimane compio 19 anni, ho appena finito il liceo e non ho amici, mai avuto una ragazza e l'unica ragazza che mi piaceva ha deciso che adesso mi odia e mi ha bloccato su ogni social esistente, adesso ho 0 collegamenti con lei dopo 5 anni di amicizia e qualche mese in cui ci siamo frequentati.

La mia famiglia ha problemi economici, vivo nelle fottute popolari, subisco razzismo sistematico ogni volta che vado in un posto perchè non sono italiano di origini, le mie uniche gioie nella vita sono quelle 2 orette che spendo in palestra ogni giorno.

So che all'università non cambierà nulla perchè se non sono riuscito a fare amicizia al liceo dove siamo tutti chiusi in una gabbia insieme figuriamoci all'università che è una giungla di persone che hanno già formato gruppetti tra di loro.

I'm still mad about this. At least make it seem like you cared about the Aspiration stuff.

The Heat have been one me of our main rivals since 2020 with intense playoff series, the Damian Lillard trade saga, and recently with the Giannis trade and the Adebayo-Herro drama. However, I do not understand why there is this much hatred. You do not usually see a small market team fanbase going head-to-head against one of the biggest markets.

As a Bucks fan, I am actually cool with Miami. They kicked our ass and we kicked their ass in past years, but they are definitely more likable than Boston. The only thing I disliked about them was when Heat fans were salty and unbearable after the Dame trade, continuously claiming that Dame did not want to live in Milwaukee and that we ruined his career.

Watching Derrick Rose's MVP season back, I realized something crazy for a guy with that much speed and a sick handle: he actually had a really hard time getting separation on the perimeter and in the mid-range.

It made me wonder how someone that quick couldn't create space one on one. The truth is, he just didn't have good deceleration. You can see it even when he attacked the rim. Instead of dropping his speed and making a smart play, he always rushed .He was elite at changing direction on a dime, but when the game slowed down, he completely lacked composure.

Honestly, biomechanics matter way more than raw athleticism. I would take James Harden or Luka Doncic's body control and tempo over D Rose's pure quickness.

Many people are saying that we are a team that will likely fight for a play-in spot at best and will try their best not to give the Thunder a high lottery pick. But I look at the roster and I find it difficult to believe this team won't win at least 41 games. We have two All-Stars in Garland and Ingram who can easily return to their form Ingram can be a 22+ PPG scorer, and Garland can average 20 and 8 while shooting 50/40/90. These players have already shown what they can do.

We have one of the best shooters in Rui, Kris Dunn and DJJ who bring defense and athleticism, and Keaton, who can help with his high-level shooting and paired with Garland can form a high-level offensive backcourt. We also have Baba Miller, who is already a great athlete and shooter for his position and age.

The only thing limiting us from being a 45+ win team is a serviceable center. I wonder if we can trade Mathurin for a player like Gafford; he would help us immensely.

And no, that 7'5 guy that we just picked as a free agent is not a good center, Yanic is injured and I can't really project what he is going to be next season, Lopez is on the verge of retirement and is slower than my grandma.

It’s still early, but watching Burries in the Summer League has only reinforced what I thought during the pre-draft process.

I’ve never understood the "low-ceiling" label attached to him. He’s an incredibly complete player with no glaring weaknesses: he can function on or off the ball, thrives in transition, creates his own shot, defends, and has the vision to set up teammates. While his age compared to a typical one-and-done freshman is a fair point, that shouldn’t obscure the fact that his overall skill set is already polished and high-level.

The frequent "Derrick White" comparisons feel reductive. White is a fantastic player, but Burries has already demonstrated a level of on-ball creation and shot-making versatility that simply isn't in White's repertoire.

Giving Gary Trent $64 million over four years is insane. It’s basically untradeable, and he probably won't even crack the rotation since our backcourt is already packed.

Fire Jon Horst. I’m tired of watching him mess up my team. He’s clearly not capable of handling a rebuild, and he just keeps making mistake after mistake.

Jenkins is a great coach and he doesn't deserve to have a GM this incompetent next to him.

ÈDIT: I did not know GTJ was a Rich Paul client, this makes more sense but I still hate it.

my biggest fear throughout this whole Aspiration saga was that if we ended up with the 5th pick after the Zubac trade, the league would somehow take it away as a punishment.

Now that we've already drafted Keaton, I'd say the chances are basically zero, but with the NBA you never really know what they've got going on behind the scenes.

Watching Cam Boozer yesterday he looks way leaner than he did at Duke. He's moving a bit faster and looks less stiff with the ball in his hands. This is honestly how I expected him to look coming out of high school. The best part is he didn't seem weaker even though he might have lost some weight.

I took into consideration only players who went in the first round, my rankings would be

1)Boozer

2)Yaxel

3)Dybantsa

4)Acuff

5)Philon

6)Wagler

7. Wilson(season ending injury)

8)Peterson(lack of availability and slightly disappointing production)

9)Mara(I know he deserves to be higher)

10)Burries

Wagler was ranked 261st in high school was and supposed to redshirt last year at Illinois on a team full of 21- and 22-year-old European veterans. In just a few games, he went from being a regular player to the star of the team. They put the ball in his hands, and he carried them to their first Finals Four in 20 years avaraging 18/5/4 on 40%3P.

I’m not saying Keaton will do the exact same thing for the Clippers, but I believe this team will go as far as he takes them.

The key elements I look for in a prospect are feel for the game and basketball IQ. In this draft class, outside of Boozer and maybe Acuff, I can't think of a single true freshman with better decision-making and IQ than Wagler.

Hopefully we have our next gem.

It might just be me, but body control during incline press or any kind of overhead pressing movement is by far the hardest thing for me.

I've noticed that I can usually get through pull days and leg days pretty well, even when I'm tired or didn't sleep much the night before. But when it comes to push day, it feels like everything has to be on point. If my sleep, energy, or focus isn't there, the weights feel much heavier, and I end up feeling exhausted o

even getting a headache while lifting.

I have been training for almost 2 years and I am in a pretty good condition at 18, but I still struggle with push days at times eventhough my chest and arms are well developed and on point with the rest of the body.

Sometimes I do just Chest and triceps and leave shoulders for another day because my shoulders are tired after doing chest and It's frustrating when you can't lift the same as you usually do, per say I usually do shoulder press with 18-20 kg dumbell but sometimes I can struggle with 16.

Is this problem common?
