The DUMBEST People on the Internet

Coney watches an internet discourse gone astray as a bodybuilding forum starts out with innocent workout tips that led to logistical semantics. Surely you, the viewer, are smarter than them, right?

But still to this day when people recognize him they jump on the easy joke and boy oh boy when you recive the same mocking message for more than a thousand times you kinda die inside.

Easiest solution: they're talking about multiple workouts per day. You can do 5 workouts, working out every other day, in a week if you do two workouts on 2 of the days. You can even take the weekends off :)

The simple answer is: he ALWAYS works out both Saturday and Sunday. Therefore starting each week’s workout on Sunday he does work out 4 times each week while still technically only working out every other day. And saying 4-5 isn’t that big a stretch as imagine if you always work out 4 times and if you have extra time some random Wednesday and wanna get a little workout in.

[@succ4stone501]

I think I found the best way to explain it. We'll use February for our month since it has 28 days (when not a leap year) since 28 is evenly divisible by 7 (28/7 = 4), the amount of days in a week. Given that English speakers read starting from the uppermost left of a document, the first day of most calendars is Sunday. For greater accuracy we'll use February from 2015, because the first day of the month was a Sunday. With all of this, a workout calendar should look like this if you work out every other day: Week 1 - Sunday (1st), skip (2nd), Tuesday (3rd), skip, (4th), Thursday (5th), skip (6th), Saturday (7th) 4 days worked out, 3 days skipped Week 2 - skip (8th), Monday (9th), skip (10th), Wednesday (11th), skip (12th), Friday (13th), skip (14th) 3 days worked out, 4 days skipped Week 3 - Sunday (15th), skip (16th), Tuesday (17th), skip (18th), Thursday (19th), skip (20th), Saturday (21st) 4 days worked out, 3 days skipped Week 4 - skip (22nd), Monday (23rd), skip (24th), Wednesday (25th), skip (26th), Friday (27th), skip (28th) 3 days worked out, 4 days skipped Counting the amount of days worked out in the month, you get 14 (28/2 = 14). Counting the amount of days skipped in the month, you get 14 (28/2 = 14). If you were to split the weeks directly in half by including half workouts (7/2 = 3.5), this would happen 4 times-one for each week. 3.5 days worked out, 3.5 days skipped times 4 weeks. 3.5 worked out x 4 = 14 days worked out, 3.5 days skipped x 4 = 14 days skipped. The numbers are the same mathematically, however they do not take into account the nonexistence of half workouts. The reality is to round one week up and the consecutive week down: 3.5 + 3.5 = 7. (3.5 - 0.5) + (3.5 + 0.5) = 7. 3 + 4 = 7. Hopefully this can clear any Coney Confusion™ As stated by G. H. Hardy in _A Mathematician's Apology_ , "I believe that mathematical reality lies outside us, that our function is to discover or observe it, and that the theorems which we prove, and which we describe grandiloquently as our 'creations,' are simply our notes of our observations" (Hardy, 2012).

okay but like you can't work out everyother day in a week unless you're okay working out two days in a row at the end and beginning of your week. i.e. Sunday, Tuesday, Thursday, Saturday leaves you starting the next workout rotation the day after the last giving you no rest day between rotations. The optimal "every other day" schedule has to be a two week schedule thus giving you a 4 day workout week and a 3 day workout week.

This doesn't cover Chart Party, Dorktown, or Fumble Dimension (which is a bit different but still great). He so talented, and was a big inspiration for literally every other KZbinr doing this kind of thing right now. Now I'll watch the video. I put forth my full-throated support for more Jon Bois react content. I love this shit. Edit: MY👏STREAMER👏IS👏STUPID Edit 2: Jon makes his content VERY palatable to people who don't give a SHIT about sports (see: Saddest Punt), but for something less sports-y, Fumble Dimension is EXCELLENT kooky sports gaming content.
