    Italy comes clean on helping overthrow our 2020 election. … All part of the plan. I am curious about how many in Congress knew about this in 2020 and early 2021….. This is strong evidence of treason…. We in the truther movement knew about most of this in late 2020.

    How many in Congress are actually who they present to be? I mean… who is left?

    Knowing the truth is difficult unless more people are awake. I have been following your podcast for years… Your followers may or may not know. No amount of exercise or nutrition will cure this problem… It is your duty to at least watch… from there… do what you will.

  2. Great interview. She's so open and honest, very well spoken and focuses on the essentials. I've been having success just doing two exercises per session, 30 minutes a day, every other day. I go as hard and heavy as I can and keep going until I can't anymore, reducing the weight to try to get 5 reps in each set, making sure I try to push past the burn when you're running out of gas a little bit each time. For me, just having two exercises to go all in on simplifies it and makes it more fun. Like she said ,its so important to have that intensity. Its not about X amount of exercises or X amount of time, its going til failure and making sure each set you give your all. Makes all the difference.

  3. Thank you Mike. She was excellent. It is so true. The minute we feel relationship issues most of us go straight to our body. Am I too old? Too saggy? Too heavy? To be a women can be a prison at times. Although, i cant eat whatever i want. I crush the weights and cardio. But thats ok. Goal is to remain strong as long as i possibly can.

  4. 66 yo starting to see droopy arm & leg skin convert to firm/toned from lifting. I used to focus primarily on cardio but now I see the weights advantage. I still walk after lifting & get my steps & YT nutrition knowledge in each day and hope that this exercise helps keep me out of the assisted care facility down the line.
