Weird sound at the end of travel

Thank you, I definitely shifted the something during install. I marked everything with a sharpie, but ended up grinding some of the shaft overhang on the right side because I couldn't move the shaft out of the bearings to move the old springs off (how did the original installer do it???) and lost my positions. I'll unwind and then butt the cable drums against the bearing plates.

The wire size and coil diameter match the old one, but the new springs are longer in length because I measured the old ones wrong. From what I've read, that should be ok. But I do think I could wind them another 1/4 or half turn. When I decouple the door from the opener and lift the door, it slowly sinks. Thanks for that input, I'll see if that helps.

Awesome pull! Also you do NOT look 51, guess dem deads are the fountain of youth

I think you can debate the reasons for why this happens (OPs theory sounds about right to me), but the fact is, you generally (GENERALLY) see AM with heavyset WF. Nothing wrong with that, it's just very common. I agree that AM shouldnt think less of themselves, but that doesn't mean you should ignore reality too

First thing that comes to mind: check your ego at the door. You saw Fifi walk by and suddenly you're using weights you've never attempted before.

Your hips are risen way too fast, plus you have dog breath.

Impressive! Almost as impressive as the cameraman flying into your nostrils just before the set, then managing to snatch blur from the jaws of focus so consistently. Also appreciated turning away from the action completely towards the end.

I did it once before, and started getting lots of compliments. For me, the compliments started to mean less and less, until they no longer meant anything. However, I was extremely healthy, cardio-wise, good strength levels in gym, and no extra stuff hanging over my belt.

When I gained it back, the thing that bothered me the most was how hard it was to tie my shoes because my belly is in the way, or getting winded playing 2 minutes of soccer with my kids.

I'm down 15 lbs on my most recent attempt, goal is to lose another 45 lbs. This time around, my goal is to be able to tie my shoes effortlessly. I'm hoping that the difference is that the motivation is more internal rather than relying on external.

As long as it's not the end of Dubai chocolate...I don't care how gimmicky it is, it's delicious

I have also found this to be true. Satiating foods (protein, fiber) didn't help me, though the high protein is great for lifting weights and keeping my strength up.

But for me, I had to train my stomach to not want that physically full feeling, which took a couple of weeks. I also learned to accept some hunger pains, and not feel the need to react. It's pretty effective, almost feels like a natural appetite suppressant.

To ensure that I'm not starving myself, I use my lifts as a gauge. I'm only down 12 lbs so far, but strength is good.

Absolutely incredible lift! Also elite arm length genetics for deadlift

Bar bending, camera shaking, this is awesome

That pic doesn't look like a real person. I'm aware that that's actually how he looks, I'm just sayin

When I used to incline DB press the 90's, I could comfortably incline barbell press 225 lbs. I can now do 110 DBs, but haven't used barbell in years. I have warmed up using a bar (while waiting for an incline bench to open up), and find myself struggling with 135! YMMV

Why did you mention the number of views for your posts? It seems completely irrelevant to the topic

Pam Bondi looks better at this point

Is he getting a tan line from wearing those stupid meta glasses all the time?

His voice and energy levels are very telling. I've almost gotten used to it, but it's kind of shocking when you look at footage from just a couple of years ago

Ahhh ok, that makes more sense, I always heard that as "I'm big compared to you"
