For many, research is taken to represent a framework for understanding concepts that can then be applied to their own training.  This can be taken too far when some hope to divine exact details that apply specifically to their own journey. Research isn't meant to tell you (dear listener) how to train on a Tuesday.  What is the best way to properly utilize the current literature to better our own lifting journeys? Two hunks set out to explore this very topic. 00:00 Introducing another MONSTER episode (and reviewing reviews and continuing the feud with the macrofactor podcast) 06:56 How training to failure research is really conducted Warneke 2022 Influence of Long-Lasting Static Stretching on Maximal Strength, Muscle Thickness and Flexibility https://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pmc/articles/PMC9174468/ Iron Culture Ep. 197: Training To Failure: A Comprehensive Overview https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=oa8Z-fUuiNU Halperin 2021 Accuracy in Predicting Repetitions to Task Failure in Resistance Exercise: A Scoping Review and Exploratory Meta-analysis https://pubmed.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/34542869/ 34:00 The death of the “expert” (and Mr Train-to-failure) 44:01 Study designs: disconfirming hypotheses vs proving something to be true Iron Culture Ep. 196- How Much Training Do Powerlifters Actually Need To Get Stronger (Ft.

Thank You Briege and Caoimhghín Ó Caoláin Friends from far and near were in the Four Seasons Hotel in Monaghan last Saturday night for a special testimonial event for my old friend and comrade Caoimhghín Ó Caoláin. Mary Lou McDonald was there to remind us of Caoimhghín's long and distinguished life of activism for over 40 years. It was also an opportunity to thank Briege. It's not easy being the partner of an activist but Briege is a Republican in her own right and her family before her. So go raibh maith agat a bheanuasal agus do chlann.‘The Eternal Buzz and the Crock of Gold.' The event for Caoimhghín Ó Caoláin was not my only social outing last week. Shane MacGowan published what some have described as his first ever art book. However that label doesn't do it justice. It is a wild mixture of over 3,000 poems, photographs, sketches, and paintings. It includes self-portraits and handwritten lyrics of almost two dozen songs, including early versions of lyrics for The Pogues. There are even some of his cocktail recipes.Alcohol AbuseOut of my brainAnd suddenly my worldWas free of painOut of my brainAnd I didn't thinkI'd feel that good againBut I couldAnd I wouldAnd I did

CressloughI know Creeslough well. I have friends who live there. Outside the village. At both ends. My heart goes out to the families of the ten people who were killed last Friday.Same old StoryLast Saturday's DUP party conference saw it behave as unionist parties have usually behaved. Within their own little bubble.   It's the same old story. The DUP was established 50 years ago to oppose civil rights. It was openly sectarian. It pledged to Smash Sinn Féin – and failed - founded its own paramilitary organisations and set its face against power sharing. It successfully outmanoeuvred its unionist electoral rivals and emerged triumphant as the largest party in the Assembly.Patrick KavanaghI am a long time fan of Patrick Kavanagh. And a long time supporter of Claddagh Records. Poet and writer Patrick Kavanagh was born in rural north Monaghan in 1904.  He left school at the age of 12 and taught himself about literature. He went on to become one of our leading poets.

Down Syndrome Lots of Socks campaign    LOTS OF SOCKS: The focus of Lots of Socks is to raise awareness of Down syndrome in the Galway community during the month of October.  This is the 4th year of Lots of Socks and we would like this year's discussion to be focused around Inclusion. Not the kind that exists on paper, in company's/schools' policies and Inclusion token events but the actual reality of families with children with intellectual disabilities.  We are asking the Galway community to look at inclusion from a slightly different angle – instead of wondering what can I do? Ask instead - what will I learn from this person? How will my life be enriched by the experience of having a friend with intellectual disability? We are asking you to invite a child or an adult to your social gathering not out of pity or guilt but out of understanding that it is for your own benefit to practice open minded, kind-hearted and non-judgmental relationships. Look at inclusion from a selfish point of view – what will it do for me? You will be surprised

When it comes to our businesses, there are a lot of rules and “right” ways to do things that we're told are just how it's done if we want to succeed. But it doesn't have to be that way. You can choose to do things differently.

Annabel Monaghan's debut adult novel, Nora Goes Off Script, was released on June 7, 2022. In her words, "Writing it was probably the most fun I've ever had" (and she did it during quarantine, so there's that!) Before Nora, she wrote YA fiction and the popular column, "Does this Volvo Make My Butt Look Big?" about motherhood and womanhood. In this episode of Write the Damn Book Already, Annabel and I talked about her journey to Nora and some of the key moments of her writing career, many of which will likely (delightfully) surprise you, as they did me. INTERVIEW HIGHLIGHTS [7:22] How Annabel got a "late" start as an author (at 37) co-writing a book for teens that she had zero intention of writing [11:30] The impetus for writing a novel for women and the inspiration for the plot of Nora Goes Off Script (it involves the Hallmark channel) [13:49] Annabel's process for fleshing out the plot (hint: it's not what she recommends that others do or what she told her students when she taught novel writing at the The Writing Institute at Sarah Lawrence College). [14:05] Her rationale for writing fiction versus non-fiction—in other words, her belief on what you have to do in non-fiction versus fiction. This deeply affected the way I think about why I like writing fiction. [15:34] The ONE thing she knows about writing, related to how long she has to be able to commit to writing before sitting down to write) [19:20] The length of the first draft of Nora (this will SHOCK you!) [20:22] Annabel's perspective on beta readers/early readers and her secret for choosing early readers who WON'T kill her confidence [22:20] The value of writers networks for support and encouragement, and how Annabel formed her group of writing friends [23:53] The agent pitch/proposal process for the book (she almost gave up entirely) [32:40] Why Annabel feels such pressure to write the "hook" or "elevator pitch" for her books (this one's gonna resonate!) [35:22] How Annabel handles selling (as someone who doesn't love selling), pushes through resistance to asking for reviews, and hit the nail on the head in terms of why creative people oftentimes struggle with sales. [41:10] Annabel's philosophy on reading her book reviews CONNECT WITH ANNABEL http://annabelmonaghan.com/ Annabel Monaghan on Instagram Annabel Monaghan on Twitter Annabel Monaghan on Facebook Purchase Nora Goes Off Script

About Annabel Monaghan: Annabel is the author of two Young Adult novels: A Girl Named Digit, optioned by the Disney Channel, and the sequel, Double Digit. She is also the author of Does This Volvo Make My Butt Look Big?, a selection of laugh-out-loud columns that appeared in the Huffington Post, The Week, and The Rye Record. She joins me today to talk about Nora Goes Off Script, which is her adult debut novel.    In this episode, Mike and Annabel discuss:  Annabel's path to publishing What she learned during the writing process How Annabel crafted Nora's character and why she chose to make Nora a mother How writing is therapy for Annabel Key Takeaways:  Learn how to embrace and create opportunities for success yourself. Be vulnerable. By having the courage to be vulnerable in your writing, you enhance your characters and give them a sense of life, which could help you connect with your readers. It's not an easy job being a mom–raising a child while accomplishing other responsibilities every single day.  Taking the time to write down what is going through your mind is an effective way of expressing yourself, as well as processing your life. "You're going to be okay, just keep going. It's not going to work out right away, but it's going to be okay." – Annabel Monaghan  Buy Nora Goes Off Script: Amazon: https://amzn.to/3w4elBi Bookshop.org: https://bookshop.org/a/54587/9780593420034 Connect with Annabel Monaghan:  Website: http://annabelmonaghan.com/ Facebook: https://www.facebook.com/AnnabelMonaghan Twitter: https://twitter.com/AnnabelMonaghan LinkedIn: https://www.linkedin.com/pub/annabel-monaghan/79/b1a/2a7 Instagram: https://www.linkedin.com/pub/annabel-monaghan/79/b1a/2a7 Email: annabelmonaghan@gmail.com Connect with Mike Carlon: Website: https://uncorkingastory.com/ Youtube: https://www.youtube.com/channel/UCSvS4fuG3L1JMZeOyHvfk_g Instagram: https://www.instagram.com/uncorkingastory/ Twitter: https://twitter.com/uncorkingastory Facebook: https://www.facebook.com/uncorkingastory LinkedIn: https://www.linkedin.com/company/uncorking-a-story/
