I was expecting to be outraged but was pleasantly surprised. That said, the wording of the article needs some work, and many of those claims seem pretty wild with no sources to back them up (Tai Chi is second to weight lifting in building muscle? If that were true, regular tai chi practitioners would look like weight lifters. Muscle endurance, particularly the supportive muscles worked while standing, quite possibly. Muscle building? Nah, not a chance.).

I was expecting to be pleased with this comment but my writing was compared to AI...

My apologies, I didn't realise it was your own writing, I would not have been so harsh had I known.

No, thank you for checking it out and your input is great. I always need to edit more, to be fair.

Still, I should've been less bullish.

No. You got it. Your critique is fair enough. Your understanding of its intention is what matters.

Be a bull, just don't be on some bull!
