  1. « Tant que je pouvais continuer, je considérais finalement que tout allait encore à peu près bien. »

    Jusqu’au moment où le corps finit par rappeler qu’il a aussi ses limites.

    Travail, vie perso, loisirs, repos… On nous apprend à tenir, à optimiser, à rester performant partout. Et chez les hommes, ne pas flancher reste encore souvent associé au fait d’être solide.

    Mon nouvel article sur cette injonction à la performance, le productivisme et cette difficulté que j’ai encore à simplement m’arrêter avant d’être épuisé.

  3. Exercise Order Can Change Muscles that Get the Best Stimulus 💪

    Exercise order matters because it helps determine where your best effort and highest-quality stimulus go during a workout.

    👉 Muscles trained earlier usually get your best effort

    👉 Fatigue can shift the work to other muscles

    👉 Priority muscles should usually come earlier

    👉 Compound exercises can affect isolation work later

  6. Yawn
    Another disturbed night. I was awake for about 2 hours instead of sleeping.
    I changed my sleep clothes which helped a lot with the previous discomfort, but my brain wasn't let me go bye-byes!

    Sacha thinks I'm getting enough sleep, but health-related factors are causing me to be 'exhausted' - I'm starting to wonder if she's mostly correct (but I definitely need to sleep. Please!)

    We've got another lazy day by the sea ahead, but we've got to pack our bags this evening for collection during the night from outside our room.
    All things must end, so we want to make the most of #today

    Have yourselves a magical Monday

  7. Oof, pain levels high even on meds today. Of course I also have medical appointments to attend *Sigh*. Walking stick, and take it slow, and it will all get done😁

  8. Understanding the Common Cold: Why Fighting Off Illness Leaves Us Feeling Poorly

    By: WPS News Health Correspondent
    Baybay City | August 7, 2026

    At the heart of the body’s reaction to a cold is the immune response. When a virus, such as a rhinovirus, enters our system, our immune system springs into action. White blood cells, including macrophages and lymphocytes, recognize these invaders and initiate a complex defense process. They release signaling molecules known as cytokines, which play a crucial role in communication between cells during the immune response.

    The release of cytokines triggers inflammation, particularly in the respiratory tract. This inflammation results in symptoms like a sore throat, nasal congestion, and a persistent cough. Blood vessels become more permeable, allowing immune cells to reach the site of infection. While this response is vital for combating the virus, it often leads to the discomfort and malaise we associate with colds.

    The release of cytokines triggers inflammation, particularly in the respiratory tract.

    Additionally, the body demands more energy to mount a defense against the infection. This redirection of metabolic resources can leave individuals feeling weak and fatigued. Altered levels of neurotransmitters in the brain during this immune response can also contribute to feelings of lethargy and, at times, even mild depression.

    The combination of mucus production, coughing, and general discomfort from inflammation results in symptoms like headaches and muscle aches. While these signs are indicative of the body’s work to eliminate the virus, they can make recovering from a cold a challenging experience.

    In summary, the discomfort experienced during a cold is a direct result of the body’s immune response and the inflammatory processes it triggers. Understanding these mechanisms not only demystifies the experience but also highlights the importance of allowing our bodies the time and care they need to recover.

  9. How To Design #Inclusive #CommunityGardens For All Abilities

    by Kristian Angelov, Last Updated June 10, 2026

    "An inclusive community garden works when people can arrive, move through the site, reach the soil, use water, rest, understand the rules, join workdays, and harvest with dignity. A garden can have wide paths and still exclude people if the gate is hard to open, the hose is heavy, all beds are low to the ground, signs use tiny print, or meetings happen at times that conflict with caregiving and shift work.

    "Designing for all abilities means treating #accessibility as a whole garden system. Paths, beds, tool sheds, water points, seating, shade, compost areas, harvest tables, volunteer schedules, and decision processes all shape who can participate. Welcoming gardens reduce unnecessary effort so more people can stay involved in the activity.

    "A shared growing space should give #wheelchair users, older adults, children, people with #LowVision, #NeurodivergentGardeners, people with #ChronicPain or #fatigue, new gardeners, caregivers, and neighbors with different languages or schedules a usable way to belong.

    Key Takeaways

    - Inclusive community garden design starts with the full route from street, transit, parking, or sidewalk to every shared task.
    - Paths need firm surfaces, clear width, turning space, drainage, edge cues, and maintenance after storms.
    - #RaisedBeds, #TabletopBeds, containers, vertical planters, and ground plots should work together so gardeners can choose the posture that fits them.
    - Water, tools, compost, signs, seating, shade, and harvest areas need the same access planning as growing beds.
    - Sensory and cognitive access matter: clear routes, predictable rules, quiet zones, tactile cues, pictograms, and low-overload work options expand participation.
    - Community process is part of the design because schedules, plot rules, language access, and conflict systems decide who stays involved."

  10. DANS LA GARE (Justinus Kerner)

    Illustration: Chris Ludlow      DANS LA GARE Entendez-vous le sifflet, furieux, strident, La bête souffle en ses naseaux, cabre Sa carcasse de fer, s'apprête au train rapide, Et tout mugit, grands dieux ! comme un tonnerre. Dans son ventre un feu s'affaire, Qui pousse au ciel de noires fumées ; On dirait l'image du monstre Dont parle l'Apocalypse. Et quelle course, quel tumulte avant Que les voitures soient remplies. Puis : « Paré ! », et terre et ciel S'envolent, un […]

  12. The Sense of Fatigue

    Reading Time: 2 minutes

    Yesterday I went for a run and I struggled. The distance was four point five kilometres so it was short. I suspect that it's running straight after lunch that made me find the run hard.

    Last night I felt fine. I felt like cycling today, and I hesitated between the group ride and going for an Ingress First Saturday event in Geneva. Now I find that neither motivated me this morning. I woke feeling tired.

    I don't know whether it's for atmospheric reasons, given that the barometer is going down ahead of rain, or because of pollen as my immune system fights the pollen from two types of trees. I suspect that the barometer and pollen are playing a role.

    I also suspect that the weather today, and the thought of a strenuous bike ride also contribute. I enjoy cycling but I like to be on top form. As I flit between sports I am not as strong a cyclist as some of them.

    I also suspect that I have little to no desire to go to Geneva. Ever. That also weighed on me this morning. My desire to go to Geneva was killed by their desire to discourage cars. I also don't want to go to a population centre when I hear coughing, and people don't mask, or at the very least, use their sleeves to absorb some of the spray.

    And Finally

    Yesterday's run was affected by running too soon after eating but today's is due to the slight decline in sunlight, and the huge amount of pollen in the air. And finally, if the weather was good and I felt full of energy I'd cycle to Geneva, participate in the event, and then cycle home. It's because I feel fatigued today that I question whether to participate. The joke of going to Geneva and back is 10 CHF.

    It feels like a waste given that I don't feel one hundred percent.

  13. So close to doing some #art. I’d like to #draw and #paint one of #GriffinGluck crying, but my head is so tired. I drew a small pair of eyes and one eyebrow yesterday, and was done, looked at it and the eyes were lopsided. It was a start, though. It’s been a while of my #brain doing a droop every time I thought of #drawing. I’ve wondered for years what’s in the way, discovered and been working on the #dorsal #shutdown / #freeze #burnout, and I think this is #fatigue, or maybe it’s all the same.
