Southern AZ is one of my bucket list places to go birding@Ulysees E. McGill built up enough flyer miles to get some free flights recently. Just booked a flight from Nashville to Tucson then Albuquerque to Nashville over New Years. Going to visit a friend in Southern AZ - duck, quail, dove hunt while there, potentially sandhill crane hunt in New Mexico and do some more bird/small game hunting and sight seeing along the drive back to Albuquerque. Might get some winter trout fishing in too. Should be some incredible sights along that route and on the public lands we will end up on.
I am wondering if they don't want to risk him at RT because he is the best or second-best option at LT.Most interesting takeaway for me from the depth chart (albeit somewhat meaningless) is Mincey listed as a backup at LT to Campbell but not at least a Co-Starter with Crawford at RT. I think Crawford is serviceable and one tough hombre, but a lot of folks were talking Mincey up as having next-level physical tools and aspirations. Wonder what’s going on with him. I know RT and LT are a little different skill set, but I am surprised.
Not intending to contradict others here, but the "cross-education" effect, also called "contralateral strength training", is an established thing where exercising one limb results in growth in another unexercised limb. There is some evidence that a similar thing may occur to some extent within muscles of the same limb, although that is far more speculative. My point is that it is proven that muscles can grow without being directly exercised.
With that said...there is zero chance an unexercised tricep will grow *proportionately* to an exercised bicep.
I have been reading up on Sherlock Holmes a lot lately. Apparently, he really loved Mexican food. That seemed really surprising to me, considering the era he lived in.
Then I realized he liked it because the restaurants gave him really great case ideas.
Nice use of the word preposterous. I think I’ll make that my word of the day and try to work it in here and there.In answer to the first part, you can have growth in the contralateral limb, but in the same muscle group only.
Different muscle groups receive no impetus to grow without direct exercise challenging them. As you stated in the second part.
I almost can’t believe that this is a talking point because it is preposterous. On the other hand, that’s exactly why it’s a talking point.
