he could make it. But, there were people saying “You're too small”, “You're not good enough”, and “ You're too weak”.

He practiced three hours every day not including practice with his high school team. Then he started to get noticed by a lot of people and even the people that told him he wasn’t good enough or he was too weak, they were still saying…

puts a lot of stress on the muscles and the body. You are damaging muscle fibers that need to be rebuilt and reinforced. The weight training is just the stimulus for muscle growth. The real growth and repair of the muscle comes when you are out of the gym resting. The rest is what causes them to grow and get stronger. Much like a battery needs to be recharged once in a while so does our bodies. We need to take a few days off after about every two months of intense training. This should be at…

The argument in John Searle’s famous “Chinese room” experiment is that understanding or intelligence in general is not the same as teaching a computer symbols, recognition of them, or computations. In this experiment a man is instructed to translate a paper with squiggles by an answer key, through “if, then” statements such as if “squiggle” then “squiggle”. These squiggles are actually Chinese letters. But it is clear that the man does not understand or can even write Chinese, he is just…

For me lifting weights has not only been a way out of the hectic game we call “life”, but a way to express who I am. The gym my sanctuary, it’s been “home” ever since I could remember.

Letting kids pick their own courses will give them motivation to come to school because they are doing something they wanted to do.…
