Unpopular opinion: most people aren't bad with money, they're bad with boredom. The takeaway, the random Amazon order, the "treat" coffee. Hardly any of it is need. It's just something to do. Fix the boredom and the money mostly fixes itself. Agree or disagree?

Creatine changes your physique the same way buying running shoes suddenly makes you a marathon runner. It doesn’t. Train properly, eat properly, sleep properly, recover properly. Be consistent in all those things, then it helps. Without mastering the basics it’s just expensive water weight. Stop taking it and waiting around for the tub to do all the work.
Gym fam to gym fam. CREATINE really changes your physique. Like fr.

Trump suing the BBC for $10bn and somehow it'll be us paying it through the licence fee. Standard.

If you think that anything less than 2 hours in the gym means leaving gains on the table then you have no clue how to train properly and aren’t advanced enough to train even close to intensely enough to maximise muscle growth. The main driver of growth is mechanical tension. Hard sets close to failure, then recovery. Not 2 hours of scrolling between sets. Bodybuilding isn’t an endurance sport. Change my mind.
Ideal gym time is 2 hours or more. Less than that and you’re probably rushing and leaving gains on the table.

So a guy in the gym yesterday had two machines on the go, then tried to claim the incline bench I was literally about to sit on with dumbbells already in my hands. Told him you don't get three machines at once I don’t care what superset your plan has. And he tried to press me to give in and back down (will never happen) Told him he should probably walk away now. Sat down, did my flyes, refused let him work in. Was I wrong or is he a machine hogger?

Self checkout: "unexpected item in the bagging area." It's my shopping mate. Where else should I put it?

People who set 6 alarms 5 minutes apart. Why not just set the last one? Genuinely asking

Russell Brand spent years telling everyone to "wake up"… well, enjoy the next decade of early mornings, mate. And all those blokes who spent two years calling it a "mainstream media smear" have gone very quiet. Jury got this one right. One less wrong 'un.

People will say they don’t have time to go to the gym and cook but watch over 12 hours of Netflix a week Am I wrong?

Would you keep posting if you always got low impressions and no engagement? I do. I always do.

Loads of you told me a £4 coffee isn't the problem. Fair. Let's do the maths. £4 x 7 days x 52 weeks = £1,456 a year. That's a holiday. That's a decent start on an ISA. That's Christmas paid for in cash. It's not the coffee. It's never just the coffee. It's the habit of not counting.
Unpopular opinion: a £4 coffee every day is the reason people don't have money, not "the economy".

Unpopular opinion: if you can't afford Christmas without a credit card, you can't afford that Christmas.
