Excellent example of how a body looks at different weights and different levels of fitness

Related, Casey Johnston posted an excerpt from her book about power lifting--it focuses on when she first started:
I hated and resented the self-satisfied “you’ll understand someday” tone of these pieces. It was more than just the smugness; even if these stories challenged some of the values about the hard work of hotness, the framing still capitulated to the game....But it wasn’t just her post that grabbed me. The response to it had been overwhelming. People showered her with compliments on her strength progress and willingness to give strength training a shot in the first place. Not a few people complimented her progress photos. “I don’t lift to be hot,” she replied. “I lift to be strong.” I rolled my eyes. Liar.
Finally, speaking of exercise, I recently switchewd from a blender bottle to a Helimix 2.0--works great, no whisk ball.

A moving essay about living with Parkinson's
Anne Carson for the London Review of Books:
Looking ahead you see a black doorway. You begin to notice the black doorway is always there, at the edge, whether you look at it or not. Most moments contain it, most moments have a sort of sediment of black doorway at the bottom of the glass. You wonder if other people are seeing it too.
...
Neurologists now seem to believe that the brain is plastic and that certain activities can rewire it, by generating new neurons to replace lost ones or by exciting neurons that have gone idle or slow. Boxing is recommended. I go to a boxing class three times a week. Everyone in the class has Parkinson’s, various degrees of damage. At a certain point in each class (after stretching, shadow-boxing, drills, strength training) the instructor yells: ‘Gloves on!’ We rush to the lockers for our boxing gloves. Putting on your first glove is easy. To don the second glove you have to get help. ‘Don’t use your teeth!’ the instructor calls out. Interesting fact: it is impossible to conjure the black doorway while someone else is putting a boxing glove on you.

Speculation that Tour de France teams are using the questionably legal practice of "inhaling the deadly gas carbon monoxide to optimise their athletes’ altitude training"
A second, more aggressive approach, which is called carbon monoxide inhalation and uses the same equipment and techniques, steps into the scientifically new and much riskier realm of inhaling the poisonous gas for the express purpose of performance enhancement. A growing body of recent scientific research suggests CO inhalation can have a powerful impact on measures of aerobic capacity like VO2max, or maximal oxygen uptake.
...
By inducing hypoxia – a state of oxygen deprivation – CO inhalation can be used to prolong or even replace the performance-enhancing benefits of altitude training. It can also be used in conjunction with altitude training to maximise gains, as part of an approach called “super altitude.”
...
The technique is not banned by WADA, although it appears to conflict with the agency’s rules around artificial manipulation of the blood. And there is no hard evidence that any WorldTeams are currently using CO inhalation for performance gains. But
