Meet Johnny Procrastination, a mid-thirties young man whom will go above and beyond to do the least amount of work possible while still trying to achieve his perfect body. See, like most beginner fitness aspirers, Johnny fears hurt therefore will still do each workout yet will do so in a strategic halfhearted manner so that he may reap the benefits of the exercise, minus the pain. First, he'll take much longer than a suficient amount of time (60 seconds) to catch his breath before beginning his next exercise. This decision can prolong the estimated time of arrival for the sculptured physique you wish to acquire as the more the heart beats the more fat is burned and the more toned you become. Staying in his comfort zone is another bad habit Johnny embraces; lifting the same amount of weight for the same amount of sets, for the same amount of time will make for not only a boring workout but also will not challenge your body in the least bit and produce boring results.Lastly, Johnny also spends the entire amount of his warm up strething. note: cold muscles are not made of elastic therefore stretching should only be done spuratically during your warm up and the majority should consist of running.
Here's what Johnny should do. Never take longer than a minute to rest after completing one exercise and transitioning to another, the more your heart races the more you'll drop fat and replace it with muscle and leanness. Next, change it up, variety in a workout can lead to faster and more dominat character in your newly acquired physique. If you feel the weight you began with can now be lifted with ease, step your game up and lift more weight. Lastly,don't believe warm up time is lazy time, take this time to pace yourself for the upcoming intensity of the actual workout; keep your heart racing and spend the majority of this time running. These are the good habits Johnny must embrace if he chooses to acquire the best possible sculptured body. What do you think?

Full Frontal Feminism (Last chunk)
I understood Jessica Valenti's main arguement to be that the mistreatment of woman around the world is due to the harsh environment that people (namely men) have developed by way of their own masogynistic views and/or opinions. Besides these masogynistic men, whom do you believe to be at fault for the for this very unfavorable present which women inhabit? Furthermore, why do you believe women, such as Jessica Valenti whom are aware that these thingts are taking place around them, don't always speak out against it?

Based on the sometimes harsh language used by Jessica Valenti, it seems to me that she has either witnessed and/or experienced life in such a way that she's come to the conclusion that many males feel a sense of superiority over women. Their are double standards in many aspects of life, including but not limited to promiscuity and the work place, which always seem to favor men. Men are still being paid greater amounts than women and a man's reputtaion will be less than tarnished if e chose to lead a life of debauchery. Where do you think these beliefs origintaed and why do ou think they continue to exist today?
