It's quite different to the Alexa Bliss one, but just as demanding. Have fun.

Second Celtic Warrior Workout I tried. Starts at 8:00. Don't be fooled the "light weight," time of the workout, or the simplicity. Some of these are hard to do, like the push-up lat pulls. I had to modify those, and the lunge/bicep curls. But it made me sweat quite a bit. I need to finish up with a gentle yoga workout, but I am beat already.

I'm liking Smackdown because they are attempting to interconnect storylines. New Day and the Bar had a mini feud, which led into them feuding with Miz and the six man main event. They are keeping people involved (at least as much as possible), but they aren't forcing people into matches just because. Jeff Hardy and Daniel Bryan weren't on TV, so it saves them for stuff when they actually need to be there. The Usos are still being used as part of the Lana/Naomi MITB build up, so it helps keep them and Rusev Day going. Smackdown usually has a theme to work the show around (this week being the women's division), so they don't need everyone all the time like Raw does.

Yes, some things aren't going well, like Sanity not debuting (though AoP did and look where they ended up). Gallows and Anderson are fodder for the Bludgeon Brothers. While that doesn't bode too well for the tag division, at least they are giving the other teams something to fucking do.

It just feels that ever so slightly, Smackdown is at least trying to keep everyone who is in the MITB field going. Their goofball segments are way shorter than Raw's, so something like New Day/Miz and the Pancake Batter was like 2-3 minutes, instead of the Corbin/Hawkins stuff that was like 7-8 (how long was the B-Team BBQ)?

They also showed a willingness to change up the formula be it showing off old-school promo staging, the backstage contract signing, and so much more.

About the only thing Raw has going right lately is Seth Rollins, Braun Strowman, and the Women's Division (not much praise there). Lashley and Zayn are in a death feud, the tag division is jobber and comedy central, and ROMAN LOOKING STRONG YO!"

And do I need to mention the 2-hour thing? Somehow people keep forgetting the 2-hour thing. Raw could be hitting on all cylinders, but it's still 3 hours and 5-15 minutes.

A few questions about subscriptions.

When getting a subscriber, is it expected to do sub for sub? My fear is that the more subs I get, the more inclined I will feel to sub back (especially on close knits groupings like this or Discords). However, people live lives, and it's not possible to watch or like or sub to everyone's channel or see every video they post. All I know is appreciate anyone willing to do so, and I try to sub whomever I can.

Just seeing what people think on the subject, especially those who have been at it way longer. Especially since my situation is changing soon, plopping on Youtube is gonna be harder for my own stuff, much less helping other creators.

Real life demands..grr.

Smackdown's ratings still tanked because Raw's been shit. So frustrating. I was kind of hoping they'd pull ahead because they are actually trying.

I just found out that starting in July, my grad school situation picks back up again. So with this quick turnaround, my schedule will have to change to accommodate it. It's 40 hours M-F, so it sounds like I'm going to have to take up batched recording on either Saturday or Sunday (or both) if I want any chance to keep going.

Never done batched recording before...should be interesting if nothing else.

WWE Superstars working out with Plyometrics...phew.

Stars at 11:00. Be warned, a LOT of jump squats, burpees, and other jumpy jumpy stuff. Oh, and Pilates exercises too. It made me sweat, even if it was only 20 minutes, and I modified it quite a bit cause I can't do all that the way they do.

I think he does. It's in one of the shorter videos.

Edit: Watching one with Alexa now. Not a workout yet, but it is cool seeing them geeking out about training in a hotel gym.

Edit: Holy balls. Plyometrics (BURPEES AUGH) and Pilates up the butt. I'm sweating like crazy. And I was modifying everything. Phew. Yeah. This can work.

Has anyone watched or tried one of Sheamus's Celtic Warrior Workout videos yet? I get the feeling that stuff is for insane athletes, but it has me curious what I could learn and add into my routine.

Cause I know I've gotten into a rut myself.

It's too bad that's not on PS4 (just checked). I'll have to wait until I have a splitter for stuff like that. Besides, using the PS3 would open up so many other game possibilities. I also never gave that game a proper chance when I was a kid.

If he disclosed Punk's condition to anyone outside of executives, yes. Punk himself can say whatever he wants if he chooses to, but even with a release, Amann is bound to confidentiality.

That means he's fucked.

His message to Jericho was something along the lines of his condition was not as bad as he made it out to be on the podcast.

Is that vague enough to be okay or does even that cross the line?

The fact that he mentions Punk by name is enough to get him reprimanded. You are supposed to keep patient's identities secret. Even if Jericho asked (which makes no sense), Amann has no reason to tell him. In hospitals, only chief executives and other medical staff should be privy to that information. Maybe athletes and entertainment organizations have different standards, since people are going to hound them for info all the time...but Amann should have declined the interview outright to begin with.

Saying, "It's not as bad as he made it out to be," that allows people to make an inference to his condition. That is still a breach of privacy.
