4 April 2011; workouts and woo

Today’s workout: am: 4 mile run on the treadmill (10 minutes warm up, then 15 x 1 minute harder, 1 minute easier, plus 30 seconds for 40:30).
pm: weights:
Squats (smith): 10 x 135, 10 x 165, 7 x 185 (less depth), 10 x 135
Incline press: 10 x 115, 10 x 125, 3 x 135, 5 x 130
curls: 3 sets of 15 x 20 dumbbells
rows: 3 sets of 10 with 200 (Hammer machine)
pull downs: 3 sets of 10 x 120 (shoulder friendly grip)
sit ups: 4 x 25 (inclines)
ball (hamstring) 3 sets of 15.

Note: the vertigo, while much reduced, is still there (slightly). I feel much better but not quite at 100 percent.

Shoulder: still achy at times; I’ll see how it feels when the infection is completely gone. And the weather has threatened to be rainy.

Woo
Repeat after me: “woo” doesn’t work! Too see practitioners of woo get totally owned:

Here some BS artist (who claims to be able to knock people over without touching them) gets his behind kicked by an MMA fighter.

India: fake holy men

(hat tip for the India related videos: Mano Singham)

Of course, he have our own form of ignorance in the west: astrology, homeopathy, etc. Probably the best known one is “religion”.
