Some children are losing 7 minutes of learning out of every 30 minutes due to disruptive behaviour.
Disproportionately more teachers cite behaviour as a major reason for leaving teaching.
At what point should we take that seriously…
Some children are losing weeks of education because of school punishments.
An Ofsted inspection raised concerns about pupils at an English school missing nearly half a term of classroom learning through suspensions and time spent in isolation rooms, sometimes over minor rule-breaking.
Schools absolutely need discipline. Teachers shouldn't have to put up with constant disruption, and children who want to learn deserve a proper education.
But if a child is repeatedly being taken out of lessons as punishment, at what point are we doing more harm than good?
Discipline matters, but so does making sure children actually get an education.
Sometimes I’m embarrassed to be American. Currently, it’s a daily occurrence.

This guy is legit and just a great dude.
This training style truly isn’t for everyone. It’s for the few that are obsessed with getting as big as humanly possible especially for those who have made the decision to stay natty.
I have other traditional bodybuilding programs, just comment “High” I’ll send a free week for a more foundational approach if you’d like
The people who say it takes too long have never tried this style of training
The people who say it takes too long are wrongfully assuming you’re lifting weight that is so heavy you need 3-5 minutes between sets to recover.
There are many ways to recruit high threshold motor units, and for hypertrophy doing 7-9 reps to build up fatigue so that the last 2-3 reps your body is forced to recruit these motor units might be the absolute worst way to recruit them
The easiest way is to add more weight, then add the effort into the concentric phase of the reps. This way you don’t need reps near failure, and by not needing to train so close to failure, you’re able to repeat sets quicker. Some sets as soon as 30 seconds, some later or last top sets up to 2-3 minutes
Regardless, when you use this method you are trading junk volume for meaningful reps. You’re also managing your time in the gym around this concept to cut out all the other exercises you normally have to do
This is why people finish these sessions in 75 min or so.

Retweets hugely appreciated
My new book released today is all about behaving and belonging, which are the cornerstones of any great school. This book is not about rules, though they’re important. It looks carefully & practically into both of these key domains.

Always worth a read. The final paragraph hits the hardest.
If you'e never read The Falling Man, you should do so. I post this on September 11th every year, and I find time to read it on this day every year. Still, in my eyes, the greatest piece of journalism I have ever read. esquire.com/news-politics/a4…

When will it be the last straw, MAGA?
You’re better than this. You’re American!
🤔 Trump's 9/11 lies are getting more outlandish 🤔
Trump has told a number of whoppers about his response to 9/11 in recent days, including today claiming he was basically pulled out of the rubble while his employees were at Ground Zero helping
"Two fireman, big strong guys, they grabbed me under the arms -- 'got to get our of here!' -- and they literally lifted me up, and they started running with me"
(In fact, Trump was on TV that day bragging about having the tallest building in downtown Manhattan after the Twin Towers fell)
Here are clips of Trump's new lies:

Or, City have just lost a talisman manager and are paying through the ass for players like United did with Pogba and Lukaku.
United midfield rebuild:
Andrey Santos £48M
Tielemans £35M
Baleba £65M
City midfield rebuild:
Elliot Anderson £116M
Bouaddi £82M
Enzo Fernández £125M
Look at the difference. Other clubs are backing their managers, meanwhile INEOS & Glazers are cutting costs.

Question for @StrengthDebates. I’d value your input.
Let’s say a team starts a season and they’ve been working hard on technique, but game 1 makes it clear they’re lacking fitness and endurance.
How much can that be improved for game 2 a week later?

This fella was hounded to death.
Sadly, cunts with Union Jack avatars are saying:
- ‘he had it coming’
- ‘victim of DEI’
- ‘leftists faked his death’
Can only hope they’re bots.
Fucking awful if it’s not.

There’s a lot of people being proudly wrong in the world today. @StrengthDebates is an expert with years of knowledge. He’s also a good dude.
The commenter has jack all understanding (basically admitted to it) but thinks he can question the guy who could snap him in two.
I’m going to sum up the problem in the industry in one photo
This person told me I needed to study and read more books.
Just to set the record straight, mechanical tension is strongly affected by load
More loads more tension, period
