Way to leave out the most important piece of information, that he did not attend..

Call it the Invite Happenings 'Discussion' Thread

sac you're almost as baitable as Donald Trump...

"Respect her and be modest, that's the hottest"

Modern Turkey's founding under Ataturk was based on a bedrock of separation of mosque and state. It has been extremely important to the country for the past 95 years. Erdogan, in his ~15 years as PM and now President, has slowly and methodically taken the country towards dictatorial Islamism.

He has essentially rewritten parts of the constitution and ignored others. There is a clause in the constitution that says the military is legally compelled to overthrow the government should it become run by religion. That is part of the reason coups happen so often: it is socially ingrained into the population.

Oh, and rural populations tend to be more religiously minded (less educated, more conservative), so they support Erdogan. Urban populations are more influenced by Western culture and ideals and are more educated so they tend to oppose him.

I live about 5 miles from where it happened. Shit's about to hit the fan.

I think this phrasing/mentality may be the issue. If you are regularly getting worn out before your goal, then you are either going too fast, are making poor workout goals, or most likely a combination of both. Pretty much every workout you do should be well within your own realm of possibility. If you get tired at 45 minutes, then you should be making your workout goals 30-40 minutes in duration, not 45-60. Going to exhaustion frequently is a recipe for mental and physical burnout (I've been there, done that. It can lead to serious medical issues). Always train well within your own realm of possibility, and don't rush to push your boundaries. This pushing of boundaries may explain why you are hitting a wall. You can't absorb the training when you are going too hard, so ease up a good bit and let your body absorb the stimulus you give it.

I will send you a PM with my email address. Feel free to shoot me your schedule or ask any questions. I don't really use steam anymore.

I used to cross country ski at a very high level and still coach athletes in endurance sports. At the peak of my training I would regularly run for 1.5-2 hours every morning then do a 2 hour non-running target workout in the afternoon, so it is completely possible. I have a few pointers:

1. If you can ever possibly avoid running on pavement or concrete, do it. It absolutely destroys your body regardless of how fast or slow you run. My runs were always on grass or on trails. Running on pavement severely reduces how far you can go in a single session and causes overuse injuries.

2. Long and slow is the way to go. HIIT is good for developing your lactate threshold and maximal oxygen uptake, but the single best way to increase endurance is Level 1 training (50-60% of your max HR is a good general rule of thumb). This builds your heart's stroke volume, lungs' oxygen delivery to your bloodstream, and most importantly it increases your capillary density.

3. Far too many runners train in Levels 2-3 (60% of Max HR - HR at which LT occurs). This gives gains somewhat quickly but after about a month it is a no-man's land for physiological gains. This is where high school runners train every single day in my experience.

4. If you say you run 7-9 minute miles, shoot for 9-10 minutes per mile in your long runs. It feels wrong to run this slow, but this is probably your Level 1, where you increase your aerobic capacity and muscular endurance.

5. Sprinkle in 1-2 high-intensity sessions per week. Lactate threshold training should use something like 3 x 6-8 minute intervals just at or over your LT, with 3-4 minutes recovery in between. VO2 max intervals are more like 6 x 2-4 minute intervals with equal recovery in between. You should be nearly on your knees after these ones.

Don't let anyone tell you that you can't or shouldn't be running ~10 miles everyday. I have about 20 high schoolers doing it and they are turning into monsters and staying healthy. I just strongly suspect that you are going WAY too hard and may be on pavement. You should be able to very easily have a conversation while you are on most of your runs. The hardest part is actually teaching yourself to slow down to the appropriate pace for physiological changes to happen. It feels too slow, but faster is definitely not always better in endurance running. Best of luck!

Edit: I agree with the person above who said run for time, not distance. Don't focus on your pace or distance while you run, just go have fun for 60 or 90 minutes and enjoy exploring.

Edit2: You should always take 1 day completely off of training no matter what. Not even a 30 minute run.

On all fours or it doesn't count

I lost my shit to Tormund and Brienne this episode

Lava is mostly aluminum and silicon (molten rock), stars only go up to iron on the periodic table (mostly gases). Completely different composition.

Almost all home cooks just need 2 knives: a chef's knife and a serrated bread knife. All the extra little things sold in a giant butcher block are really unnecessary if you know how to properly use a gyuto. Here's my gyuto:

Too lazy to take my own picture, but mine looks exactly the same. Will last me for life unlike crappy western knives. Saving $$$ to splurge on a completely (unnecessarily) wicked-looking bread knife. That's all the knives I need.

Do whatever you want to do. Who cares what others think. If they give you shit just say that you like the way it feels.

I'm half Slovak and would love to learn that, but there are no good materials for learning it or Czech by yourself, so Polish is the logical next choice for me.
