Today's guest is Manuel Buitrago. Manuel is a PhD, along with being the founder and director of MaStrength, a global education brand dedicated to authentic Chinese weightlifting. Since launching MaStrength in 2014, he's taught 100+ seminars worldwide, authored Chinese Weightlifting: A Visual Guide to Technique and Chinese Weightlifting: Technical Mastery & Training There are many misconceptions in the world of strength training, especially as the lens of a skeletal pressure-based view is not included in modern training systems. When skeletal pressure dynamics are understood, it allows us to see why athletes prefer particular variations of lifts, how and why they fail lifts, and what aspects of the lifts themselves lead to better athletic outcomes. On today's episode, Manuel speaks on the practicalities of weightlifting and how it carries over to sport. He compares powerlifting and Olympic lifting from a technique and transfer standpoint, and gets into how body shapes, breathing, and set-ups affect a lift. Manuel also touches on connective tissue and why it matters for performance and durability. From this episode, you'll learn concepts about the Olympic and powerlifts that can not only improve lifting performance but also facilitate a better transfer to athleticism and movement ability.

To move up (the pull), create a "funnel" shape: narrow the lower torso (compressing the abs) and expand the upper torso (chest). To move down (the catch), change to a "cone" shape: narrow at the top and wider at the bottom, which enables faster descent. Avoid starting the lift with a powerlifting-style breath (squeezing the top and expanding the belly against a belt/creating a cone), as this impedes the upward movement necessary for Olympic lifts. 25:01 – Weightlifting Squats are a Bottom-Up Movement, Distinct from Powerlifting Recognize that the squat in weightlifting happens after the catch and is a bottom-up movement, which is fundamentally different from a powerlifting squat that starts from the top and descends. Squats performed from the rack (front or overhead) will look different from a heavy catch, as the catch is an unweighted descent followed by an immediate bottom-up drive. Focus on the funnel shape during the unrack and ascent of a weightlifting squat to maximize the upward gradient. 58:29 – Coaching the Olympic Lift Breath: Creating a "Funnel" for Upward Force From the start position, exhale and compress the abs until they feel tight, then maintain that tension. Inhale while maintaining ab compression, directing the air to fill and expand the chest and the mid-back area (between the shoulder blades) to create the full funnel shape. Do not take a maximum breath (gasping) as this removes space to move and can force the body into a rounded shape that is counterproductive for the lift.

In this conversation recorded at Obsidian Entertainment, Brandon Adler, the game director of The Outer Worlds 2, discusses the enhancements and changes made in the sequel to the original game. He highlights the larger worlds, impactful player choices, and revamped gameplay mechanics that aim to provide a more challenging and immersive experience. The conversation also delves into character development, humor, and the importance of exploration in the game, emphasizing the RPG elements that allow players to shape their own stories.

After escaping one ambush in their hotel room and a second aboard the Buzzard Black, the crew of the Little Snail is finally preparing themselves for their climactic showdown with the deadly hitman, Genuine Sincere. They'll need the right location, the right gear, and the right magical protection. And then, of course, they'll need a little luck. This week on Perpetua: Sizzling Rivalry, Crashing Waves! 04 Perpetua Guide [In Progress v.04] NPCs & Monsters [PNMS] Genuine Sincere [NMGNS] Traits: Cold-Blooded, Bought, Veteran. Eagle-eyed Stats: DEX 10, INS 6, MIG 8, WLP 6 Attacks: Ancient Passikan Rifle Shot, Suppressive FIRE, COLD Snap, LIGHTNING Strikes Twice, A Shot in the DARK Special Abilities:  Countershot, Reinforcements, Take to the Sky (Crisis!) In-Game Description: Former colleague of Uncle Nicky. Veteran hitman in the service of....  As far as I'm concerned, this is the first real boss fight of the game, even if you're jumping between both West and East campaigns. The Kalsi fight has a potential “hard mode,” but you can stop it from even happening at all based on your choices. Genuine Sincere, on the other hand, will keep sniping at you until you finally fight him. (Though I am curious if the game ever forces a traditional fight with him, or if you can complete the whole campaign with him occasionally taking a potshot through your window. Anyone test this out yet?) All of that is to say: Come in prepared! First of all, keep any elemental weaknesses in mind (like Elena's weakness to bolt) because four out of the five attacks Genuine has are elemental in nature. Worse: He's the first enemy who can actively MAKE YOU WEAK to an element.  He can also debuff you in a number of different ways, so bring enough IP to Tonic your way through the fight if you need to. On top of all that he's a Villain and a Champion class enemy, so even if you try to grind to beat him, he's going to end up with a lot more HP than any one of your party members. Yikes. Oh, and did I mention, he isn't even alone? He starts the fight with a Hoodlum Mechanic [NMHMC] and a Gangster Killer [NMGKL] on his side, plus a (de)Activated BuilderBot [NMABB] that can be used against you if the Mechanic can get control of it. DON'T LET THAT HAPPEN. Starter Tip: As far as I can tell, you have three places you can confront Genuine in the city: The clock tower where he snipes you from as you enter (and when you're in the hotel.) The beach at Rose Shore (which is definitely the hardest, because of some enemies that can join from the sea). And one of the industrial buildings in Highrail. That last one is the hardest to setup, but BY FAR the easiest to win at. ESPECIALLY if you can manage to stop his “Reinforcements” ability to continually give him more Mechanics and Killers on his side!

Have you ever noticed that in real life, you can't just say, “I take a long rest” and wake up eight hours later fully healed, your fridge restocked, and your inbox cleared? If only. Instead, you wake up groggy, your cat's screaming, and somehow your wizard spell slots are still gone. Well, tabletop RPGs aren't much better. Pacing and rest mechanics are the part of D&D, Pathfinder, and other RPGs where your party argues for 30 minutes about whether to camp in the murder dungeon, or limp back to town because someone stubbed their toe. And let's be honest—no one wants to play the “Five Minute Adventuring Day” where your heroes spend more time napping than actually adventuring. In this episode, we're tackling the eternal question: how do you keep the action exciting without turning your campaign into a sleep study? Listen to RPGBOT.Podcast on YouTube Before we dive in—did you know the RPGBOT.Podcast has a massive archive of episodes now available on YouTube? Whether you missed our deep dives on D&D subclasses, Pathfinder tactics, Stormlight Archive RPGs, or Spooktober monstrosities, or you just want to binge the chaos from the beginning, the archive's got you covered. Hit up YouTube.com/@RPGBOT and subscribe so you never miss an old favorite—or a new disaster. Show Notes Every Dungeon Master, Game Master, and table of players eventually wrestles with one of the most elusive beasts in tabletop RPGs: pacing. How do you keep the story moving, the tension high, and the action balanced—while still letting your players rest their weary hit points and spell slots? In this remastered episode of the RPGBOT.Podcast, Tyler, Randall, and Ash dive into pacing and rest mechanics in tabletop RPGs, exploring how rules like short rests and long rests in Dungeons & Dragons, or Encounter Mode vs Exploration Mode in Pathfinder 2e, shape the tempo of campaigns. We'll dig into the ways pacing affects encounter design, narrative arcs, and character development, and how rest mechanics in Pathfinder and D&D can make or break the flow of the game. From gritty survival pacing where every rest is a gamble, to fast-paced cinematic RPG storytelling where players hardly stop to breathe, we cover strategies for keeping your table engaged without letting fatigue—or rules confusion—drag the campaign to a crawl. If you've ever asked yourself: “How many encounters should happen before a long rest in D&D?” “How do I keep players from spamming the five-minute adventuring day?” “What's the balance between story pacing and resource management?” …this episode has you covered. Whether you're a seasoned DM running epic campaigns in D&D 5e, a Pathfinder 2e GM wrangling Encounter Mode pacing, or just curious how to keep your RPG sessions balanced and fun, this discussion will give you tools, laughs, and maybe a little existential dread about resting in real life. Key Takeaways Pacing is everything: The tempo of encounters, story beats, and rests directly impacts campaign flow. Rest mechanics shape tension: Rules like short vs long rests in D&D or daily recovery in Pathfinder 2e can either encourage resource management or invite “rest spamming.” Encounter pacing drives drama: How many encounters players face before resting sets the stakes—whether it feels like a survival grind or a cinematic sprint. Balance mechanics with story: Great pacing blends mechanical tension (hit points, spell slots, conditions) with narrative urgency (villains, clocks, or looming disasters). The 5-minute adventuring day problem is real: Creative pacing strategies help DMs push beyond it. Different RPG systems, different solutions: What works for D&D pacing may not work for Pathfinder rest mechanics or other TTRPGs—adapt to your system. Player expectations matter: Some groups love slow-burn exploration, others want fast action. Pacing tools let you tune the campaign to your table. Stop Pirating PDFs and Buy Your GM a Sandwich Tabletop RPGs don't just fall out of the sky like loot drops—they're created by real human beings who need to pay rent, eat food, and occasionally buy dice they don't actually need. If you love D&D, Pathfinder, or any of the countless indie RPGs out there, do the right thing: support the developers who make them. Buy the books. Back the Kickstarters. Leave glowing reviews. Tell your friends about the cool stuff you've found. And yes—buy your GM a sandwich once in a while. Because without these hardworking designers and storytellers, we'd all still be pretending that Monopoly is a roleplaying game. Welcome to the RPGBOT Podcast.

Sarah almost got swindled by her mechanic, but she's putting her foot down on the brakes. We learn what McDonald's claims Grimace is, and why Susie thinks they are lying and doing revisionist history for lolz. Sarah found out a fun fact about the David statue, but she is convinced it's a Mandela Effect situation. We learn why Disney theme parks are no longer trying to be affordable in any way, and they are fully embracing income inequality. Plus, Sarah teaches us roller coaster lingo. And there is a new predator to worry about, and evidently he's into sniffing butts.Brain Candy Podcast Presents: Susie & Sarah's SpOoOoOoOoktacular Spectacle, October 30, Oriental Theater, Denver, Colorado: Get your tickets!

In this week's mini-episode, we discuss center of gravity: your body's "tipping point" of balance. Your center of gravity is around 56% of the way up your body (around your pelvis) when standing upright, but moves as your body moves. Understanding your center of gravity is key to preventing it from being used against you. With practice, your center of gravity can even be a weapon.Get our Intro to Mechanics audio course, normally $79, FREE:https://bjjmentalmodels.com/freeintroDon't forget to check out BJJ Mental Models Premium!If you love the podcast, you'll definitely love our premium membership offerings.

In 1993, French engineer Émile Leray's Citroën 2CV broke down in the middle of the Moroccan desert. Stranded without any way to call for help, he dismantled the vehicle and rebuilt it into a working motorcycle. For twelve days and nights he lived in the stripped shell of the car  and ate what rations he had while piecing the machine together- to attempt to ride it back to civilization and save himself.

This week I'm joined by Ben Wood, aka Woody, the mechanic behind World Champion Jackson Goldstone. Woody gives us a rare look at life inside the pits at the very top of downhill racing, from the pressure cooker of World Cups to the calm precision of race day prep. We chat about everything from track walks and bike setup, to handling the emotional highs and lows that come with chasing podiums. And of course, we relive the unforgettable moment when Jackson claimed the rainbow stripes, and speculate about how the overall battle might play out. It's a story of mindset, trust, and the unique bond between rider and mechanic that makes the difference when it matters most. So sit back, hit play, and enjoy this episode with Ben 'Woody' Wood.

I did an interview with Resolution Games CEO Tommy Palm soon after the Apple Vision Pro launch last year where we talk the in the Game Room game commissioned by Apple as well as the exploration of the relatively new gaze and pinch mechanic that's enabled with the eye-tracking of the Apple Vision Pro. After seeing the Neural Band at Meta Connect, then I'm reminded about how ultimately the gaze and pinch mechanic is a lot more efficient and more optimized for quickly selecting items in a fully volumetric context. Meta's Neural Band announced at Meta Connect in the context of the Meta Ray-Ban Display glasses is only within a 2D context in a head-lock HUD display screen, and so operating the Neural Band feels a lot like what it feels like to navigate TV menus with a TV controller, but rather than a controller, then your thumb and side of your index finger are being transformed into a two-axis D-pad. Again, the ultimate form factor is likely going to come back to gaze and pinch, but that will require shipping with eye tracking. And so this unpublished conversation with Tommy Palm takes on a new context as we reflect upon the latest HCI innovations that were announced at Meta Connect and where the ultimate form factor may be headed. Resolution Games also has quite a history of launching games on newly XR devices, and so this conversation with Palm is also within that spirit, and we'll be diving into Battlemarked within the next conversation You can also see more context in the rough transcript below.

“I'll just wake up one day and say to myself that'll do me,” was the reply given by Greg Ryan when quizzed about a likely retirement date on a podcast posted on October 27th 2020.  He was then 54 years old and still riding in races. The winners were flowing and so were the opportunities from a wide range of prominent stables. That fateful day was to arrive just six weeks later. Greg was booked for six rides at a Mudgee meeting on Friday December 4th, including three for Sydney trainer Bjorn Baker. As he drove away from his Dubbo home for the 126km trip to Mudgee, not even wife Pauline knew this was to be her husband's final day as a professional jockey. The punter's favourite had to settle for a fourth and a third on his first two mounts, but was quietly chuffed when he came from well back to win a 1200m maiden on Without Shame for longtime supporter Sue Grills. His final three rides all finished out of a place, and still he hadn't breathed a word to anybody about his impending retirement. The fact that he hadn't taken a ride beyond the Mudgee meeting should have aroused suspicion. Perhaps people thought he'd been suspended or was simply taking a short break.  Inevitably it wasn't long before participants and punters alike were all asking the same question- where the hell is Greg Ryan?” Greg Ryan had retired, that's where the hell he was!- no bells and whistles, no fuss, no elaborate farewells. Despite self confessed withdrawal symptoms, the jockey with the second largest win tally in Australian racing history has stayed retired. He's about 12 kilograms heavier than he was in riding days, but quietly chuffed that he still doesn't carry an ounce of fat on that wiry frame- the direct result of an ongoing work schedule, and regular activity.  Greg had begun assisting son Isaac in his growing Dubbo tree services business, even before calling time on his riding career. He continues to work full time with Isaac and valued staff member Andrew Cook, although he's currently threatening to scale back, as his 60th birthday approaches. I've had several emails in the last six months about Greg Ryan's current whereabouts and lifestyle. I recall the earthy way in which he shared his story in that 2020 podcast, and I'd love to give it another run. If you missed it last time I know you'll enjoy the reminiscences of a former automotive mechanic who rode 4,035 winners and 5,825 place getters in a career that was very late getting started. During the podcast Greg makes loving reference to grandmother Betsy who was still going strong at age 94.The remarkable veteran, a classic example of the stoic and hard working women of her generation, had turned 98 shortly before her recent passing. For Greg Ryan fans this is a comprehensive summary of the career of a legendary country jockey.

In Part 2, Roberto Aguayo gives a raw, step-by-step breakdown of the NFL transition: the swing change he made right after college, why it hurt early, how he rebuilt his motion and confidence, and what it's like dealing with expectations, media, and identity when the ball stops splitting the uprights.

Preached 09-21-25 Rev. Elbert McGowan, Jr. Genesis 42

The lights flicker. The basement smells faintly of stale pizza and dread. Somewhere in the distance, a door creaks — or maybe that was just Randall adjusting his chair. Tonight, we're stepping into the World of Darkness, where average people stumble into a nightmare of vampires, monsters, and game mechanics that hit harder than a ghost with a grudge. In this episode, we invite you to join us for the first chapter of our How to Play Hunter: The Reckoning series. Expect desperation, danger, and just enough emotional depth to make you wonder if your dice are haunted. If you've ever wanted to play D&D but with more existential dread and less fireball spam, this is the episode for you. Support Ash on StartPlaying If listening to Ash wrangle dice, monsters, and Tyler's rules arguments has you thinking, “I need this chaos in my life,” then good news: you can. Ash Ely is running games on StartPlaying.Games, and he'll happily lead you into the World of Darkness (or any world, really) — no flashlight required. Support Ash, book a session, and experience firsthand what happens when your emotional depth meets his desperation mechanics. Just… don't be surprised if your character cries before you do. Show Notes Welcome to the very first episode in our How to Play Hunter: The Reckoning series — or as Tyler kept calling it before coffee, “Hunter the Gathering.” In this kickoff, your hosts Tyler, Randall, and Ash dive fang-first into the World of Darkness, exploring the emotional depth of role-playing games and why letting your character cry on-mic is sometimes the most powerful game mechanic of all. We'll peel back the layers of Hunter: The Reckoning's history, from its complicated editions to its enduring reputation as “the game where average people fight vampires, demons, and the IRS.” Along the way, we'll tackle the unique desperation and danger mechanics that make every dice roll feel like a bad Tinder date, and unpack how creeds and organizations give hunters wildly different vibes — from religious zealots to conspiracy theorists with poor Wi-Fi. Expect detours into D&D, vampire hunting jokes that are definitely not OSHA-approved, and at least one argument about whether lighting in performance art really matters when you're sitting in a dimly lit basement with a bag of Cheetos. Key Takeaways Emotional depth matters: vulnerability in RPG storytelling makes for unforgettable campaigns. Average people, extraordinary stakes: Hunter: The Reckoning lets you role-play regular humans versus supernatural horrors. Creeds and organizations define hunters: conflicting goals keep character drama spicy. Mechanics that hurt (in a good way): desperation and danger rules crank up tension like horror movies with jump scares. Monster design isn't about stats: creating monsters with real motivations makes them terrifyingly relatable. Storytelling as a mirror: RPGs like Hunter reflect players' inner conflicts and emotional experiences. Hunter history is messy: multiple editions, controversies, and fan debates make for excellent nerd fights. Lighting matters… apparently: whether on stage or at the table, atmosphere changes how the story hits. Tyler Tiny Videos Want even more advice on how to play tabletop roleplaying games without committing to a three-hour lecture or a fifty-page rulebook? Tyler Kamstra's got you covered with his Tiny Videos on social media. They're short, sharp, and just chaotic enough to make you laugh while actually learning something useful for your next D&D or Hunter: The Reckoning session. Go watch Tyler's Tiny Videos — because good tabletop tips should fit between scrolling memes and doomscrolling the news. Welcome to the RPGBOT Podcast.

With decades of research into biblical history, mythology, and geopolitics, Wayne is known for connecting ancient narratives to modern movements, from the rise of secret orders to the shaping of global religions.In this wide-ranging conversation, Gary and Faust decode the hidden symbolism of royal heraldry, the influence of Watchers and angels on elite bloodlines, and the prophetic significance of Mount Hermon. They examine the contested legacy of the Priory of Sion and the enduring role of secret societies in shaping history, while also unpacking explosive claims about Jesus, Mary Magdalene, and the Merovingian bloodline that have fueled centuries of speculation.The discussion also explores the rise of a universal world religion and the advance of artificial intelligence tie into prophecy. Together, Gary and Faust consider the cycles of history, the “war gene” of ruling elites, and the uneasy alliance between Christian Zionists and Israel in end-times prophecy.In this episode:•Heraldry & prophecy anchors: from royal crests to the mysteries of Mount Hermon•Jesus, Mary Magdalene & Merovingians: bloodline claims and Israel's contested symbols•Watchers, Seraphim, Cherubim, Nephilim, and giants in elite genealogies•Nimrod, Azazel/Baphomet, Pan, and why CERN carries a horned name•Templars to Zionists: from Godfrey de Bouillon and the House of Habsburg to Rothschilds and Christian Zionists steering Israel's destiny•Sabbateans & Frankists: mystical sects and counterfeit messianic movements•Universal religion & AI: red heifer sacrifices, Antichrist expectations, and technology as forbidden wisdom reborn•The Antichrist bloodline: why prophecy points to a ruler rising from elite genealogies•The war gene & false flags: why ruling bloodlines repeat conflict• Prophecies: Sibylline oracles to Nostradamus and today's apocalyptic visions•Celebrity Symbology: Beyoncé, Jay-Z, and the revival of occult imagery in pop culture•Gog vs. Armageddon: the timeline and scale most people misunderstand…and much more!Chapters:00:00 The hidden purpose of giants.01:00 Decoding secret histories and fallen angels.03:04 Heraldry explained: what lions, unicorns and other creatures really mean.04:24 The ancient giants' mission from the gods07:07 Which families rule and how intermarriage changes crests.08:14 Seraphim vs cherubim and the dragon gods10:10 Cherubim's four faces12:14 Crystal bags, tree of life scenes, and watcher depictions.14:19 Why giant traits dilute and reappear in heraldry.16:02 Gargoyles, church imagery and watcher iconography.18:08 How standards and flags encode genealogies20:57 Horned gods, CERN etymology, and the ancient names for destroyer gods.22:44 Mithra, Azazel and the End Times27:18 The star symbols and occult adoption30:07 Moloch explained34:04 Mount Hermon explained36:53 Eden and why the Middle East stays geopolitically central.40:02 Mechanics by which elites try to stage end-time scenarios.47:23 Reading symbols, guarding history, and what comes next.52:01 Partnership between Christian Zionists and Israeli Jews explained53:1we'd love to hear from you

In this episode, Adam and Jon dig into why so many players struggle to change their swing, the role that concepts and external cues play, and how Adam fixed a 60-yard slice in just a few swings with a simple drill. We also tackle a listener question about match play strateg - how to handle the mental side of competing against a friend and avoid the common traps golfers fall into. If you've ever wondered why swing changes feel impossible or how to sharpen your competitive mindset, this episode has plenty of practical takeaways you can bring straight to the course.
