Perform one of each movement to complete a "rep."

A burpee, then a push-up, then a jumping jack, then a sit-up, then a handstand—counts as 1. Rep 2 starts back with a burpee.

This is NOT 50 burpees, then 50 push-ups, then 50 jumping jacks, etc.

Isabel

30 snatches for time

Men use 135 lb.
Women use 95 lb.

First appearing in November 2004 in The New Girls article and the workout for November 11th, Isabel is fast, high power output, and one of few benchmark workouts with only one exercise.

Pick a weight that lets you complete several reps quickly. The workout should take less than 10 minutes—more like 5. If you've ever finished this in the 2-minute range, add weight today, but just a little.

20-minute AMRAP

Complete as many rounds as possible in 20 minutes of:

21 bench presses
21 L-pull-ups

Men use 135 lb.
Women use 95 lb.

The difficulty of each of these exercises should control the total volume of reps as muscular fatigue sets in over the course of 20 minutes. Each movement should be hard, but not so hard that you can only complete singles. If you make it too easy you’ll be flying through unbroken sets and end up performing an obscene number of reps by the end.

3 rounds, working for one minute at each station of:

Hollow rock
Hollow arch
Sit-ups
Back extensions
Knees-to-elbows
Stiff-legged deadlifts
Rest 1 minute

This station rotation workout alternates between midline flexion and extension. While structured similar to Fight Gone Bad, today is more about working midline stability than power output.

Hold the hollows for as much of the minute as possible. Choose a light load for the deadlifts that allows you to keep moving for most of the minute.

Why probability probably doesn’t exist (but it is useful to act like it does)
All of statistics and much of science depends on probability — an astonishing achievement, considering no one’s really sure what it is.
This December 16, 2024 article from Nature, delves into the philosophical debates surrounding probability, questioning whether it represents an inherent property of the universe or merely a construct of human cognition. Despite these uncertainties, the article emphasizes that treating probability as a real entity has proven indispensable in scientific inquiry and practical applications, enabling us to model uncertainty and make informed decisions in an unpredictable world.

Kettles, Calories & Energy Balance: What went wrong?
Dr. Zoe Harcombe calls for a shift away from outdated calorie-based dietary advice toward managing carbohydrate intake and supporting metabolic health for sustainable weight control.
In this 2018 presentation by Dr. Zoe Harcombe, titled "Kettles, Calories & Energy Balance: What Went Wrong?", challenges the conventional wisdom around weight loss and calorie theory. She emphasized that the commonly held belief of "calories in equals calories out" is not supported by the laws of thermodynamics, which pertain to energy and heat movement—not weight management. Dr. Harcombe highlights the body’s complex metabolic processes, showing that factors such as insulin, glucagon, and macronutrient type significantly impact fat storage and weight regulation.

Could Cytoplasmic Lipid Droplets be Linked to Inefficient Oxidative Phosphorylation in Cancer?
Cytoplasmic lipid droplets (LDs) have been found to be present in many malignant cancers, yet there is debate as to their creation and purpose. Some argue they are stored fuel deposits for oxidative phosphorylation (OxPhos), while others think they’re a byproduct of inefficient OxPhos. Seyried’s latest paper argues the later, pointing to a long list of citations that support this claim.
