🚀 NEW SUFFERFEST: Rue The Day is here! 🚀

Totally agree with this statement especially in the fields of mechanical engineering (mostly males) and civil engineering (mostly females). Please don’t take offence on this. As I remember from my undergraduate days, the branch of engineering which has an almost equal split of males to females would be electrical and electronic engineering and it pains me to see so few ladies are my mechanical engineering course.

Just to add on, there are some working places which favours promoting men than women which leaves me speechless. What baffles me is that, why do some in the M-level thinks men makes better managers than women?

Hey @NorthumberlandHill - thanks for the feedback. As the person behind the edit can I ask you, in the context of the video, would be a more appropriate way to phrase things up?
I get to spend a fair amount of time with male and female pro teams and the term “boys/girls” gets used a fair amount of time when referring to themselves (as opposed to referring to the other gender): “come on boys”, “alright boys?”…
I can assure you that there’s no intent to come across as misogynistic but understand that sometimes, despite our best efforts, we fail to hit the mark. On this occasion though, I’m struggling to see how we could phrase it.

As for the session itself, one could say it’s “controlled”, an indication of how far we have come with our approach to training where beating yourself to a pulp in training can often be very counterproductive. (Sir Neal released a post higher up this thread about this).

Maybe GVA has gone soft, there’s a flapping top in the footage that isn’t called out…

A easy way is make it comparative, if its boy and girls both are equal. But girls to men , which is what the video does is unequal. It lessens the women status.

While we are discussing the workouts on the list, what is " * Attaccante"? Attacker?

lol. I almost asked that the other day. Then deleted my post when I realized what was going on.

I checked the URL and realized that the link was the to the Italian version of the page. Apparently Attacker is the only workout and text that seems to be translated into Italian in that link. Hence “Attaccante”. :slight_smile:

Google Translate translated it as “Striker”.

Just rue’d the day for the first time! %*#*€ me!

I’m wondering how bad can a laser goat :goat: attack be. It can’t be any worse than questioning GVA’s hardness. That ineos guy with the ripped shorts didn’t look too badly hurt!!!

If we ever did a SUF video with cats, it would be the workout that cares the least about how much you’re suffering.
