Three sets to failure is a good rule of thumb that can be used to accommodate most peoples' fitness goals.

Other set and rep ranges work, of course! In fact, the Hybrid Routine has both higher and lower ones for a variety of reasons.

To be clear though, those are GOAL standards. For example, you do 2-3 sets of Wall Pushups of as many as you can. After you're able to do 3 sets of 50 - move on!

However, I THINK most people watching this aren't on a regimented fitness plan and may be confused as to the different numbers they see.

Y'all, the world is sleeping on what NASA just pulled off with Voyager 1

The probe has been sending gibberish science data back to Earth, and scientists feared it was just the probe finally dying. You know, after working for 50 GODDAMN YEARS and LEAVING THE GODDAMN SOLAR SYSTEM and STILL CHURNING OUT GODDAMN DATA.

So they analyzed the gibberish and realized that in it was a total readout of EVERYTHING ON THE PROBE. Data, the programming, hardware specs and status, everything. They realized that one of the chips was malfunctioning.

So what do you do when your probe is 22 Billion km away and needs a fix? Why, you just REPROGRAM THAT ENTIRE GODDAMN THING. Told it to avoid the bad chip, store the data elsewhere.

Sent the new code on April 18th. Got a response on April 20th - yeah, it's so far away that it took that long just to transmit.

And the probe is working again.

From a programmer's perspective, that may be the most fucking impressive thing I have ever heard.

Every writer has two sides:

"I love my characters, they are my children and will protect them with my life"

"I wanna make them suffer so fucking much"

keeping your tags because lol

#anders #would he be able to reverse tranquility en masse? yes. #would it be fucking horrible and owie owie? yes #that's my wife. never beating the jesus allegations that one.

eagle eyed readers may have noticed that im a huge sucker for suffering but not today

today i want you to imagine anders being made tranquil but the whole thing immediately backfires because, you know, turns out brainworms make you immune to that shit.

so the thing that finally makes cullen rutherford piss his pants and board a pathetic cartoonish raft and row all the way back to ferelden is the sight of a man, fresh sunburst brand on the forehead, laughing his ass off in the middle of a room that smells like rotisserie templar. again.

on the one hand, extremely funny to get told “get help” by a fortune cookie, on the other, i can’t believe betterhelp has breached influencers and podcasters and started getting fortune cookies to shill for them
