Think you’re going to go back to the barbells and lift the same as you did on the day the gym was locked up? Think again. This article has some solid advice for different activities, plus specific guidance on setting your weights for the first few weeks back from people who kinda know a thing or two about muscles.
Meet Marc Miller, NYCs Underground Dumbbell Dealer – GQ.com
Who would have thought one of the hottest commodities of a global pandemic would be at home workout gear? This was a fascinating read, and dovetails perfectly into THIS OTHER PIECE outlining why equipment is so hard to find too.
Letter From a Religion in My Mind – James Baldwin via theNewYorker.com
This was a magnificent article, originally published in 1962, written by a man who had a massive influence on shaping race relations through the civil rights era and in to today. Mya Angelou counts him as a mentor, so that should tell you something about the quality of the individual.
