A rabbit. A wedding suit. A plank. Belgium winning from the USA.

Rabbits have caused issues to people with overpopulating. While I blame the humans for this, the subject of rabbits seems to involve some controversies.

Wedding suits are relics of systemic patriarchal domination, especially in cases of child marriage.

Planks are not bad as just one, but deforestation and industrial land scarification processes are permanently destructive to the land base and animal populations.

Belgium, the evil child of two slavery-loving european colonial states, created the DRC in Africa and invented a cruel new trend for covering up genocide and slavery in the name of democracy.

;p

D’accord. But I was using “planks” as in sport, so you will have to come up with something new.

ohh, uh, like the excersize? I admit that I had look it up, rather than off the top of my head, but I found an article on it.

Problems with plank exercises arise from the static nature of the “correct form”. The criteria for excellence in planking is the ability to hold the straight body posture without any wavering or “buckling” for long periods of time. None of these criteria are part of day-to-day functional activities, or consistent with athletic movements

Proponents would counter these facts with arguments that as long as clients are building strength there is no harm in utilizing them as a major component in training regimens. However, training muscles to work in an isometric fashion, with no joint motion and no muscle, tendon, or fascia lengthening results in an inefficient and ineffective musculoskeletal system.
