It’s back Tuesday!

Chin-Up:

Grab the pull-up bar with the palms facing your torso and a grip closer than the shoulder width.

As you have both arms extended in front of you holding the bar at the chosen grip width, keep your torso as straight as possible while creating a curvature on your lower back and sticking your chest out. This is your starting position. Tip: Keeping the torso as straight as possible maximizes biceps stimulation while minimizing back involvement.

As you breathe out, pull your torso up until your head is around the level of the pull-up bar. Concentrate on using the biceps muscles in order to perform the movement. Keep the elbows close to your body. Tip: The upper torso should remain stationary as it moves through space and only the arms should move. The forearms should do no other work other than hold the bar.

After a second of squeezing the biceps in the contracted position, slowly lower your torso back to the starting position; when your arms are fully extended. Breathe in as you perform this portion of the movement.

Repeat this motion for the prescribed amount of repetitions.

Variations:

If you are new at this exercise and do not have the strength to perform it, use a pull-up assist machine if available. These machines use weight to help you push your bodyweight.

Otherwise, a spotter holding your legs can help.

On the other hand, more advanced lifters can add weight to the exercise by using a weight belt that allows the addition of weighted plates.

My only relationship goal is to be with someone who motivates me to become a better person and shows me the potential I don’t see in myself

Im gonna agree with trent shelton on this one, loyalty is rare. Finding someone who wants to stay in your life no matter the circumstances, thats fucking rare. But, there will come a point where if you keep pushing your luck and keep treating this person poorly, they’ll say enough is enough and will have to choose to walk out of your life. And thats a terrible mistake, to let go of someone that loyal because whos to say you’ll ever find someone like that again.

What are your rights at a protest?

Citizen activism is as American as apple pie. Whether you call it a protest, a parade, a tea party, a town hall, a march, a sit-in, a patriotic rally, a picket line, a free speech event, or a nonviolent demonstration, your right to stand up peacefully for what you believe in is protected by the US Constitution. Read the  First Amendment:

“Congress shall make no law respecting an establishment of religion, or prohibiting the free exercise thereof; or abridging the freedom of speech, or of the press; or the right of the people peaceably to assemble, and to petition the Government for a redress of grievances.”

To learn how to turn protest into powerful change, watch this TED-Ed Lesson.

Ready to exercise your constitutionally protected right to protest? Before you go, know your rights. Below, read an excerpt from the American Civil Liberties Union guidelines for protestors. [For a pdf of the full ACLU ‘Know Your Rights’ guidelines for protestors, click here.]

DIYbio’s growth spurt is, in part, thanks to powerful molecular biology tools becoming cheaper and simpler to use. Second-hand DNA amplifying machines are increasingly available over eBay, with some vintage models costing less than $100. Biohackers have even made an open-source version that, in true DIY fashion, allows amateur biologists to assemble the machines on their own.

Similar to sophisticated home chefs, amateur scientists no longer require specialized lab training. Want to transfer a gene from plant A to plant B? Simply purchase off-the-shelf, ready-made kits from an online supplier of your choice, follow the instructions, and within a few months (if you’re good) you’ve cooked up something entirely new to nature.

According to DIYbio pioneer Rob Carlson, what drives the movement is the belief that “biology is technology”: like computer software, DNA is fundamentally a form of code that can be manipulated to engineer biological traits and devices. At its core, much of the DIYbio movement is about exploring the creative potential of rewriting genes.

“Over time our individual sense of identity (social mask) has been shaped into a particular pattern (template) given to us by our society. This is the feeling of exclusivity; belonging to a particular tribe, race, religion or country. If this assimilation of ‘divide and conquer’ is successful (through conformity), you cannot successfully exit this artificial matrix construct.” -Anon I mus (Spiritually Anonymous)

“Most of us go through our entire lives experiencing unnecessary, personal suffering without ever waking up to the light of our true, infinite nature. The prison that we are trapped in exists only as internal programming inside of our heads; a thought-created construct of an illusory separate person (me, myself and my story) and its false conditioning.”  ~Anon I mus (Spiritually Anonymous)
