🤦♂️ Every undergrad sport science and S&C student can see this is nonsense. The only thing I can think is that this is the only time they ever do it, get the video for the clicks and then get back to doing weights and plyos.

Another step towards a dictatorship. It would be funny to laugh at the millions who voted for ‘freedom’, but that would be forgetting the millions others who are going to suffer because of the braindead decisions of Trump voters.

The term “land of the free” has always been a joke, but now it’s just sad, because the majority of the voters have given their country over to outright facism & an end to their own democracy. Civilians are being openly abducted, and Trump’s braindead voters brought it on.
