If you tried the same workout routine as your partner, would you succeed or would it be too hard or otherwise impossible? Would it fail for Endurance, strength or because of other complications?

I tried my husbands' workout routine today, and I was kinda surprised about some results.

• I beat his leg workout.
• I failed his arm workout by a long-shot.
• I got closer than I thought with his torso workout but failed.
• As we sometimes go jogging together, we are on par with that, although he could go faster while I could go longer.

I do know he fails most of mine. I do 95% body-weight exercises so that gives him a disadvantage.

So I think I do beat him with endurance but other than leg-focused parts, he is at least stronger in every other aspect. So workouts don't necessarily means actually being stronger, but it's an interesting comparison I think.

As an add-on for a bit of clarification; I did a mixture of his exercises because normally he does different stuff on different days. I just tried nearly everything on one day but stopped when I couldn't do it, which gave us time to try more. I didn't do his full weekly plan in one day, but I tried most things.

The song I am talking about is “Woman’s World” by Katy Perry. It is mentioned that women are superhuman and number one. If that is so, then why are women dominated by men in every physical aspect like in sports and why can’t we impregnate others and have many children without any problems like men can?

I bought a thicker yoga mat, since the one I already had just wasn't doing it for me.

Was gonna buy some dumbbells but.. they are still in the cart. Don't need 'em...

What about you?

So, lately I’ve been thinking about starting a club at school. I want to name it “R. O. L. E. S.” as in everyone has or plays a role in someone else’s life. It stands for “Roles Of Love, Empathy, and Service”.

The premise is that we do acts of service and kindness for communities that really need that love or extra support. It will also be a way for students to gain community service hours.

Yes, I want to build a strong community within the club, but I also want everyone to feel like they don’t have to interact with other people they don’t know ALL of the time. I want to be able to provide activities that don’t need people to interact with other people directly and have them still get community service/activism hours for it.

My vision is that there’ll be different layers to it, or two different groups working on projects. What I want to do is: have people who don’t want to interact with others (like at fairs or other school events) do all of the background or set up work. Those who don’t mind taking to others can sign up to speak with others. Anyone is open and welcomed to do both or just one. This way, everyone can participate in any way they’d like, get hours, and feel comfortable doing it.

I’m posting this to ask if anyone thinks it’s a good idea to do this. I’m not sure if there’s a club similar to this in my school, so it’s definitely just an idea for now.

Also, if it does happen to be a good idea, does anyone have any ideas as to which programs/communities we could reach out to in order to help?

I want to do acts of kindness in this club. For example, we could have a day where we hand out roses to people whose names got written down by a friend who asked us to give it to that person. Maybe, we could write cards to the elderly. We could also help suicide prevention hotlines (though I don’t know we’d get to that point of permission).

If anyone has ANY ideas for as to what we could do, please let me know.

I’m open to any feedback. Thank you for reading.
