TFA is non a scientific journal, but summarizing/editorializing results from scientific journals. They don't cite their sources for that particular claim, but it appears to be from this^1 journal, which itself is an overview of ot

I think you've missed the point of the quote. It's not an analogy to prose, per se, but merely stating that you don't need to just "get to the point" and, instead, can enjoy a work throughout. A symphony isn't

Same! So satisfying to just explore the world they built, to the point of me neglecting the actual story a lot of the time. Hell, I think the only reason I advanced the story was to unlock new dialog from the NPCs. I loved the whackiness of

Sure, guess I read your comment as bone-focused. That said, joints also do get more resilient when resistance training. Although, I'm aware not necessarily at the same rate as the muscles themselves, leading to issues where the muscles

Wouldn't some (if not all) of that be mitigated by the increase in bone density that comes with resistance training?
