According to MSNBC, if you exercise and work out, you’re a Nazi


It is arguably one of the most absurd titles for an article ever written. Yet, sadly, it’s also indicative of how unhinged many people on the Left really are. On the MSNBC Twitter account, the left-wing media organization tweeted, “The far right’s obsession with fitness is going digital.” It included a link to an opinion article titled, “Why the far-right is really into home fitness.”

It’s yet another stunning example of the deranged minds of many contemporary leftists. It raises the question: “How emotionally damaged are the people who believe this nonsense, and why does anyone support them?”

It goes on to elaborate on the author’s views of why working out and caring about physical fitness should be linked to right-wing extremism. But the absurdity didn’t stop there. She said you’re also a Nazi if you practice or engage in any kind of combat sports or martial arts. Consider the opinion piece’s opening paragraph.

“It appears the far right has taken advantage of pandemic at-home fitness trends to expand its decade-plus radicalization of physical mixed martial arts (MMA) and combat sports spaces,” Cynthia Miller-Idriss wrote. The author then links fitness, training, and martial arts (and, one might think, doing anything except dying one’s hair blue and screaming vulgarities at anyone who disagrees) as “central to the far right.”

Even Elon Musk found the tweet ridiculous enough to comment on it.


The author then quoted and referenced Mein Kampf as evidence to support her thesis — a radical move given that nearly every liberal, Democrat, and left-winger emphatically established the precedent that if you are someone who quotes Adolf Hitler to make a point, then you are a Nazi. After all, that was the logic used in a wave of criticism against Moms for Liberty, including recent comments made by Gov. Gavin Newsom (D-CA). It’s apparently permissible if the Left quotes and references Hitler — yet another example of its deceptive propaganda and standards.

Additionally, the author further disparaged physical fitness and martial arts as tools used mainly by racists to train themselves to impose their racism and Nazism on innocent people around the world. It reads more like satire or parody than legitimate commentary. Suffice it to say, it’s a weird, odd, and disturbing world these leftists live in.

“The intersection of extremism and fitness leans into a shared obsession with the male body, training, masculinity, testosterone, strength and competition,” the author wrote. “Physical fitness training, especially in combat sports, appeals to the far right for many reasons: fighters are trained to accept significant physical pain, to be ‘warriors,’ and to embrace messaging around solidarity, heroism, and brotherhood.”

There are other numerous baffling, ridiculous, and absurd links made in the article. However, even stranger is that the article was originally written in March 2022. Yet, for some reason, the people that run MSNBC’s Twitter account felt it made sense to randomly tweet an absurdly, illogical, and ridiculous article nearly 15 months after it was initially published.

The Left has routinely demonstrated it is little more than a conglomeration of agenda-driven bullies who, at their core, are unhinged fanatics, and this article is an example of that. It routinely embraces inflammatory double standards and holds views of the world that are not grounded in any semblance of reality. Its cult-like behavior is dangerous and indicative of everything wrong with contemporary left-wing politics. Human civilization needs to stop taking these people seriously.

Just one session of exercise can keep your brain supercharged till the next day – Times of India

Just one session of exercise can keep your brain supercharged till the next day – Times of India

A lot is being said about physical activity these days. The impact of physical inactivity has hit the population so terribly that health agencies have been urging people to include at least 150 minutes of exercise in their weekly routine. The effect of exercise is beyond physical benefits, it boosts cognitive health too.
A new study by researchers from the University College London has said that only one session of exercise can give memory benefits for more than 24 hours.
“Our findings suggest that the short-term memory benefits of physical activity may last longer than previously thought, possibly to the next day instead of just the few hours after exercise. Getting more sleep, particularly deep sleep, seems to add to this memory improvement,” Lead author Dr Mikaela Bloomberg (UCL Institute of Epidemiology & Health Care) has said.

What kind of exercises should we aim at doing?

“Moderate or vigorous activity means anything that gets your heart rate up – this could be brisk walking, dancing or walking up a few flights of stairs. It doesn’t have to be structured exercise,” the researcher has said.
For this study, the researchers examined 76 people aged 50 to 83 with moderate to vigorous physical activity than usual on a given day. They observed that these individuals did better in memory tests the day after. They found that less sitting hours and more hours of deep sleep contributed to this. The participants wore activity trackers for eight days and took cognitive tests each day.
“The study is among the first to evaluate next-day cognitive performance using a “micro-longitudinal” study design where participants were tracked going about their normal lives rather than having to stay in a lab,” the University has said.

The findings of the study have been published in the International Journal of Behavioral Nutrition and Physical Activity.

Plod and Pedal: Missoula exercise group getting you outside every single day

Plod and Pedal: Missoula exercise group getting you outside every single day

MISSOULA — As the new year nears, so do resolutions.

For those looking to dedicate themselves to fitness, a Missoula group gets you running or biking every day. No exceptions or you’re out.

MTN met with the founders of Plod and Pedal to learn the purpose behind the project.

After a holiday challenge got them moving, in 2018, coworkers Ryan Mellem and Josh Pierce decided to run outside every single day.

“I’m like, we should try to run 1 mile a day, every day for the entire year. And he’s like, really?” Pierce detailed.

For the first year, they got some other co-workers in on the plan.

“Started talking about it with other people and they’re like, well, I would do that,” noted Pierce.

Everyone anteed up $20 and there was one rule, if you miss a day you lose the chance at the prize pot. “You miss a day, you’re out,” said Pierce.

Five years later, Plod and Pedal is running strong and the person with the most miles takes home the prize.

Mellem explained, “There have been some people that have done one discipline every year since then. We’ve had multiple people that have stayed in it the whole time.”

The rules are: sign up on Plod and Pedal’s website, start on New Year’s Day, run a mile in under 15 minutes, or bike 3 miles outside each day, and if you miss a day then you’re out until the next year.

171 participants started 2024. As of November, the total is down to 105.

“Since 2018, I’ve run outside every single day. At this point, it’s not a decision, it’s just what am I going to put on to do it,” stated Pierce.

For many in the group, some hailing from around the country and some across the world, they feel being able to move is a gift that shouldn’t be wasted.

“You get the body for a certain period of time and it’s nice to use it. We’ve all done things that we never thought were possible before,” offered Mellem.

Plus, the Plod and Pedal founders are passing on the gift of exercise to the next generation.

“So, allowing our 3-year-olds to go for a run with us, and keep it under that 15 minutes, was a huge part. And even to this day, they’re like, have you ran your mile yet?” Pierce told MTN
