Yeah, no thanks. I'm way too lazy to do difficult exercises with light weights hard.He changed it a tiny bit but what I remember:
4×5 trap bar deadlifts
3 × 15 box jump
4 x 7 pistol squat (the worst)
3 × 12 single leg reverse lunge
1 or 2 Sled pushes to end
Made me feel like i was going to do great things in life. Then i did not do great things in life
If I hadn't watched the news already today you would have just got me very excited for nothing.Ricky Gervais ****ing murdered last night, it was glorious.
Gervais used to brilliantly toe the line between being dangerously edgy and just plain offensive and mean. These days, though, I feel like he crosses over that line a little too often. It's a really hard act to pull off, there's a reason so few comedians find success with it in the first place.Ricky Gervais ****ing murdered last night, it was glorious.

I'd do two pistol squats/single leg reverse lunges and go "ehh, **** this".
You mean how my life always changes to completely dependent on PWO after I start taking doubles?Haha i know the feel, time to get some pre workout powder the life changing supplement!

Yep, and with energy drinks as well. But when I'm not already living on caffeine I try to limit PWO caffeine to the times that I'm actually tired. When you start taking caffeine before every workout, it really hikes up your tolerance, to no one's surprise.Oh man so youve been down that road already eh? The way i got out of that funk was i found one that tasted awesome and had good ingredients that wouldnt kill me. Then they changed the formula and started putting sugar alcohols in which destroys my stomach. So moved on again
Ended up finding one now which works good and pair that with watching Rocky montages and im ready to rock
I don't follow him super close so maybe true. He was on fire for that award show though.Gervais used to brilliantly toe the line between being dangerously edgy and just plain offensive and mean.

I can't tell you how many open mic comics I've seen try and fail to replicate that style. I learned pretty quickly that it almost always doesn't work and shifted my style to avoid getting too close to that line.
shockingI don't know what the Gervais thing is about at all, and I feel pretty happy about that. It didn't reach my bubble.
Victims? Lol he ripped into them for being superficial hypocrites, which most of them are. Seems like comedians today are the only ones with the balls to say the truth that nobody will talk about in public.I mean, it's pretty much impossible to be seen as punching down when you're going after impossibly rich celebrities, but even so, some of those jokes bordered on tasteless. Like, is it anybody's business if Leonardo DiCaprio dates younger women? And then following it up with a reference to a suspected pedophile, conflating that with Leo dating a 25 year old...
Like I said, it's not easy to make wealthy, out-of-touch actors look like the victims, but Gervais seemed really determined to try.
I mean, yes, he did do that (the part about speechifying while accepting an award was a solid zinger), but that wasn't the whole thing. Like I said, comparing a guy to a pedophile for dating a younger woman is a pretty low blow, it's hard to defend that.Victims?

Meh, Leo found it pretty funny. His job is to tell jokes after all.I mean, yes, he did do that (the part about speechifying while accepting an award was a solid zinger), but that wasn't the whole thing.

Yeah, but a lot of the audience didn't, and there is 100% a difference between "making a joke" and just being shitty.Meh, Leo found it pretty funny. His job is to tell jokes after all.
Not disagreeing because Jimmy Carr comes across as a asshole to me more often than not. However, wanting to say jokes so your audience can "feel good" is stupid territory. Maybe I am old skool, but a comedian's job is to be funny and say it how it is at the same time...like Gervais mentioning about the obituary and how not enough people of colour died so it isn't worth mentioning who did is a "class A" smoke.The difference, usually, is found in the comedy writing concept of not "punching down". The idea is, if you're making a joke at the expense of someone who can't fight back (such as making a racist/sexist comment, or making fun of the handicapped) nobody is going to feel good about laughing at what you said
Well, on your first paragraph, I didn't mean your job as a comedian is ALWAYS to make your audience comfortable. The thing about "feeling good about laughing" is 100% a subconscious thing for the listener. Audiences aren't supposed to notice that you're manipulating them to get them to laugh, they just laugh. Or, if you fail, they don't, but the important thing is that they don't understand fully why. Mocking a kid with Down's Syndrome just feels icky to most people, even if they've never heard of the concept of punching down. That's the domain of joke writers in the same way that sleight of hand is a concept for magicians, and the audience doesn't need to know the nuts and bolts of it to enjoy the show.Not disagreeing because Jimmy Carr comes across as a ******* to me more often than not.

Like I enjoy Gabriel Iglesias comedy, but the amount of times he says he doesn't want to "offend" anybody during his specials is so soft and stupid, sometimes be a man for once geez and play on the edge. I agree there is a "line" and sometimes people cross it, but people got offended at Chappelle's latest special and that's the soft world we live in now.
