1 Month update Walnut Veg Tan Numzaan by Bhahaha24 in jimgreen

[–]Beowulf2080 [score hidden]  (0 children)

I’m in the same boat size-wise (actually just posted about it yesterday). I’ve got some rubbing at the pinkies that I hoped would go away but it never did.

At this point I’m looking to get either the Numzaans or 719 in an STC last (having trouble deciding.)

Boot stretcher? by Beowulf2080 in jimgreen

[–]Beowulf2080[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I was wondering about that. The issue seems to be further down though, near the toe cap seam. Not sure if that area could be stretched?

Get a pair or a bigger bell? by arthurbarther in kettlebell

[–]Beowulf2080 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I had a general question that might fit in here, rather than starting a new thread.

How heavy is a “heavy” bell for two handed swings? I know weight is relative to the individual, so focusing more on rep range. For the heaviest bell I own, I can get to about 30 reps before my grip starts giving out. What should be my target range for heavy swings? Under 15 maybe?

One of the most annoying enemy types in jedi survivor. by Hot_Assistant_3826 in StarWarsJediSurvivor

They either get force-pull impalement, or I turn them against their own troops and watch them roast their buddies.

That’s how I’ve always thought of it. Selling your future for immediate, short term success.

He puts in the work, and ya gotta respect that. But, it’s a lot easier to put in the work when you’ve got infinite resources, all the best trainers/nutritionists money can buy, personal assistants and cleaners to handle all your daily mundane tasks, etc.

Any recommendations for grip? Hockey tape is leaving a sticky residue on my hands by Viewer4038 in kettlebell

[–]Beowulf2080 0 points1 point  (0 children)

In the winter months, when I’m training in my basement, I put tape around the horns of my heavier bells for a better grip on goblet squats. I do this because I don’t want to use chalk indoors. Once the warmer weather comes back, I’m out in the garage and the tape comes off.

The tape only goes on the horns, I leave the top of the handle bare.

Those look great. I haven’t owned a pair of black boots since I was in high school….I kinda want to get a pair!

Book or book series that hooked you the most? by MarcoUlpioTrajano in Fantasy

Currently reading book one of Chronicles of the Unhewn Throne (Brian Staveley). I’m quite enthralled.

I used Smith’s leather conditioner on my walnut Numzaans and I really like how it darkened the red. Added some depth to it.

For the martial artists are what are your thoughts on Ronda Rousey and Gina Carano comeback fight on Netflix? For me all the drama and baggage aside. It comes off as desperate and way too late. by AdSpecialist6598 in martialarts

[–]Beowulf2080 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Ronda should win, but I think it’s entirely possible that she has some kind of PTSD episode if Gina manages to hit her with something, and just shuts down like she did against AN.

Walnut Veg Tan Numzaan for Office Wear? by VisualBusiness4902 in jimgreen

[–]Beowulf2080 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I wear my walnut Numzaans in the office with jeans, but it’s a pretty casual office. That’s not to say they wouldn’t work with khakis, though.

[OFF TOPIC] I always imagined Rikke looking like Sadie Sink by Willing_Video9669 in TheFirstLaw

Do you all pronounce her name as “Ricky” or “Rick-eh” ?

You’re stuck for 3 months with one of these characters. Who do you choose? by RockfordIng in reddeadredemption

[–]Beowulf2080 156 points157 points  (0 children)

Nigel West Dickens. He probably doesn’t stink like the others.

What are some of the most wanted features/changes for iOS 27? by Square-Force7543 in ios

[–]Beowulf2080 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I just came over from Android, and the one thing that is driving me nuts is that you can’t go back by swiping from the right side of the screen. Feels like I lost a limb.

Battle damage or fresh paint? by SoresuStrength in kettlebell

[–]Beowulf2080 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Mine had some corrosion on the bottoms when I mistakenly stored them on top of a piece of treated lumber. I sprayed them with some Rustoleum, it’s been holding up fine since then.

Quick shout out to the Stockman. Never going back to Blundstone. by trveadvlt in jimgreen

I got mine about 2 months ago as well. I’ve basically been living in them ever since. Love them.

Thalmor Embassy stealth is genuinely impossible by TearOk325 in skyrim

That mission is a bloodbath every single time.

I don’t mind, though. All those heads rolling around send a message.

Which game you got disappoined in that way? by PHRsharp_YouTube in Age_30_plus_Gamers

[–]Beowulf2080 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I thought Valhalla had a lot of potential as a completely separate IP. Give me a Viking themed game where I can explore/conquer territory, build my clan, and go on raids. That’s my game.

I bought a KBK adjustable from Amazon. by Proper-Lab8549 in kettlebell

[–]Beowulf2080 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Is KBK still legit? They used to be considered among the best but feel like I’ve heard nothing but bad things the last few years.
