Dobry den from Lviv 🇺🇦

It’s my second day on the ground, and I’m headed to Lviv #Volunteer Kitchen.🥘🥕

🇺🇦 Today also marks Ukraine’s Independence Day. On August 24, Ukrainians celebrate 34 years of sovereignty—this year, for the fourth time, under the shadow of Russia’s full-scale invasion.

📞To those in the U.S. and allied countries: keep contacting your representatives. Urge continued support for #Ukraine.

Slava Ukraini🇺🇦

Another example of what happens in the #Trump admin if you dare report #facts

#Pentagon Fires the #Defense#Intelligence Agency Chief

The move comes weeks after the agency drafted a preliminary report contradicting Trump’s contention that US strikes had “obliterated” nuclear sites in #Iran.

"In melodramatic & cinematic terms", what we are seeing from the #MafiaDon Administration is EXACTLY what you picture in your mind an #Authoritarian#Dictatorship looks like.

"Masked secret police with no identification raiding homes and smashing windows. A scapegoated minority group blamed for all things." (I'd add "rewriting history" & "declaring inconvenient #facts to be lies.")

"Turning the military inward, threatening to revoke people's citizenship & jail them."

Where does the fat actually go?💨

➡️ It’s one of the most common questions I get from long-term clients—and the answer surprises most people.

❌It doesn’t melt. You don’t sweat it out. And it’s definitely not torched by a magic supplement.

🎥 Check out this video to learn what really happens when you lose fat.

😵‍💫Ever Felt Dizzy Standing Up? Let’s Talk Orthostatic Tolerance!

🚨Orthostatic tolerance = the body’s ability to handle posture changes without dizziness or fatigue. Vital for older adults. Essential for independence.

💪🏾Watch my 65+ online client do Pushups → Landmine Pivot & Press. What looks like a simple combo is much more.

✅Training smart is training with purpose.

Useless Facts, Badly Drawn #442: Archerfish.

Archerfish are small tropical fish that spit jets of water to knock insects as high as 10 feet above the surface so they can eat them. Their mouths are described by biologists as being like tiny guns, and their aim is highly accurate, their brains taking refraction through the water surface into account when targeting prey, and is considered an example of animals using tools. Juveniles hunt in groups to learn how to aim better, but adults almost never miss the first shot. They're also a popular, though challenging, aquarium pet.
