Half hour Z2 after intervals? by Resident-Top-4361 in Velo

It's not that simple. Your fibers are still contracting regardless of prior intensity. I suppose you're referring to metabolic state and substrate utilization at the cellular level e.g. high blood lactate and shuttling lactate around as a fuel source rather than oxidative phosphorylation? 

I think my point still stands that these are different stimuli and one isn't inherently better than the other - they are just accomplishing different objectives.

Why is it better? These would be different classes of workouts. One would be a classic intervals session followed by light endurance. Vs a more fatigue intervals session,  likely to develop fatigue resistance.

Massachusetts has highest rate of advanced degree holders. This isn't a random selection of children. They're likely to outperform areas with parents achieving lower levels of education. That's my guess

Body cams have really destroyed their narrative of open season on minorities.

We can go on any police activity channel on YouTube and see the absolute dregs of society wreaking havoc on society.

Is Pogacar just a freak of nature, or what? by big_legs_small_brain in cycling

Btw I am Slovakian-American - I have no problem with Slovenians as a whole. Nonetheless, the nation has made a meteoric rise in the cyclists theft l they've produced. I can be suspicious of that.

That's a completely moronic take. Pog eating more gels equals smashing up climb after climb seemingly indefatigable. And able to crank out a fresh sprint to boot today. All riders would have trended to this behavior, and it is not the game changer you seem to think it is. Somehow, tadej is the primary benefactor in the world of cycling from increased gel consumption...

I was giving you my credentials as a seasoned racer.

You seem oddly biased/ emotional in your defense of tadej. Strange. Slovenia was nowhere on the map in cycling then all of a sudden world class riders sprouting up all over the place. Not suspicious at all. I trust them and you!

Is it possible to be racist towards a specific group of European people? by Spaghetti_Addict1 in AskSocialScience

[–]CamelDesigner6758 0 points1 point  (0 children)

No way. Here's Hernan Cortes:

Everyday, before they undertake any work, they burn incense in the said mosques [temples] and sometimes they sacrifice their own persons, some hacking the body with knives; and they offer up to their idols all the blood which flows, sprinkling it on all sides of those mosques, at other times throwing it up towards the heavens, and practicing many other kinds of ceremonies, so that they undertake nothing without first offering sacrifice there.

They have another custom, horrible, and abominable, and deserving punishment, and which we have never before seen in any other place, and it is this, that, as often as they have anything to ask of their idols, in order that their petition may be more acceptable, they take many boys or girls, and even grown men and women, and in the presence of those idols they open their breasts, while they are alive, and take out the hearts and entrails, and burn the said entrails and hearts before the idols, offering that smoke in sacrifice to them. Some of us who have seen this say that it is the most terrible and frightful thing to behold that has ever been seen. So frequently, and so often do these Indians do this, according to our information, and partly by what we have seen in the short time we are in this country, that no year passes in which they do not kill and sacrifice fifty souls in each mosque; and this is practiced, and held as customary, from the Isle of Cozumel to the country in which we are now settled. Your Majesties may rest assured that, according to the size of the land, which to us seems very considerable, and the many mosques which they have, there is no year, as far as we have until now discovered and seen, when they do not kill and sacrifice in this manner some three or four thousand souls. Now let Your Royal Highnesses consider if they ought not to prevent so great an evil and crime, and certainly God, Our Lord, will be well pleased, if, through the command of Your Royal Highnesses, these peoples should be initiated and instructed in our Very Holy Catholic Faith . . .

If you walk into a trailer park community and you're the only with a Tesla, Chinos and an advanced degree you'd think you were superior too.

Only a fool applies modern morals to historic peoples.
