It will be extremely difficult to find it, I've went through too many ones to remember where it is but... I'll try.

EDIT: OK, believe it or not, I found it. I'm uploading it right now. I won't bother to cut it, I'll tell you where you can find the relevant part but I recommend watching it entirely (you'll agree with me after you watch it).

I'm uploading it as an unlisted video due to copyright.

OK so I had a bunch of horrid dreams lately due to my mental state... I've had a few nights in which I was awake pretty much all night/morning, with just a few short episodes of "sleep".

First dream:

I was in a supermarket, and then suddenly something happens and everybody is running like crazy. I'm like "why is everybody running" and I was starting to get scared, I knew something was happening. Then the walls started to close and iron walls started coming out of the ground like in a bunker, and I ran to jump over them and get out but couldn't. So the walls closed and there was a sound like "bam", like when you start very bright lights, then automatic machine-guns and a huge minigun came from the floor, upwards, with red laser pointers. They were programmed to kill anything that moves in the supermarket, instantly. They didn't move at all, just the lasers were moving, searching for stuff that moves.

So I was caught like in a 1/8 squat position with the knees slightly bent and my back against a wall, like in a sissy squat position. And for some reason, I "knew" that I'll have to wait 13 hours in that position and I was like "that's it, I'm dead, no way I can maintain this position for that long without moving".

And a second dream:

I was at my grandma's house and every clock in her house was moving ~3 times slower. So I was like "oh, so this is why she's been living for so long, there's a higher gravity field here so her age is an effect of General Relativity, now it makes sense".

Actually, massage works in a different way - there are two pathways for pain - acute and chronic. There's a feedback loop in chronic pain that is interrupted by the neurons that fire during acute pain. There's a possibility that when you generate the acute pain (massage) that is stronger than the lingering chronic pain, you can interrupt the firing loop of the chronic pain neurons.

I can search for the video describing this by Robert Sapolsky.

I've always been fascinated with it. When I was little there was a sentence in Romanian, when you wanted to say something is really far, you'd say "it's in Patagonia".

So I started to think "where is that" and I had an Earth globe and my dad showed me where it is, and then I was fantasizing about how is it over there... and I've always had that thing ever since then. It fascinates me to this day.

I wonder what your soreness be after that 15 reps set of RDLs.
