    How do I run in zone 2?

    @nerissa1969 TBH I'm not sure I'm remembering the time ranges correctly -- your comment and the one from OP make me think I am probably underestimating the amount of time you can spend in Zone 2 ...

    How do I run in zone 2?

    @rbrbrb2 How do you feel when you are running? People's heart rate zones can be very different. Do you feel like you're getting more fit over time? Are you able to run faster or for longer without feeling worse? This is the kind of thing you really have to do by feel. To do that, you will...

    Mark Rippetoe thinks putting women in concentration camps is an "interesting take"

    @brianhex Ugh this is disappointing. He even has a section in one of his books (don't remember this one) where he talks matter-of-factly about how women need to be trained differently than men because we are able to pull close to our 1 rep max more times than men are. I thought he was a good...

    I can only think of one exercise that has entirely changed my life- the Hindu Squat

    @aliaconnors Not OP and not an expert on Hindu squats, but I can tell you that in yoga you usually breathe out when you compress the belly and breathe in when you change to a standing posture, so likely a traditional Hindu squat had the out/in breathing pattern. As for whether it matters, I...

    Mark Rippetoe says: she needs to be placed in sexual slavery

    @meow69 You're not over thinking this, he's a piece of shit. He maybe didn't used to be, maybe he was just hiding it, I don't know. But he's certainly a piece of shit now and that's what matters.

    Gym employee hit on me and asked for my number.. do I mention how uncomfortable that makes me to a different manager?

    @markvs This was inappropriate workplace behavior. It is unprofessional for an employee to hit on a customer. Tell a manager. They probably have policies against this kind of thing, and if they don't, hopefully they will formulate some as a result of this. Do it for the next woman he hits on who...

    Will I always be absolutely destroyed after a workout until I’m out of the obese category?

    @thornbearer It's normal to hurt for a few days after a workout, and it's normal for that to start 2 days after the workout itself (DOMS), but you shouldn't be hurting so much that you can't engage in your daily activities. Your workout sounds like it might be too much too soon. That can be...

    Squats: How far do you go down?
