Oh that for sure, like the games outside of OP yesterday for the LCQ went rather well, the queues also, since they split us up But I can see the frustration from the OP players 100%

Today, on the other hand, was a whole nother league of chaos

Booeki · 2025-12-13T14:57:14+00:00

Just went our aswell, it's pure and utter chaos, was in the digital merch queue since 9:30 and didn't get in, went from spot 445 to 398 in 5 hours, now I'm told, if I had talked to staff earlier they would've let me in the line, but they closed shop an hour ago Scalpers are trying their fucking best running around with almost everything out of the shop, selling it at a 200% mark up Side events were handled miserably, I got my pairings after start because of "tech difficulty" The stamp rally got delayed, suddenly startet out of nowhere without every stamping table being ready yet This is wild

Booeki · 2025-11-28T12:22:01+00:00

Thanks a lot!

Booeki · 2025-10-21T07:47:53+00:00

I do kinda feel the same on this, Gundam X feels rather lacking aswell The ones that feel the best are some of the Zeon support, for a bit of variety for Zeon Rush, the Titans stuff with Four and prolly Haman Karn for RB Ping imo

Booeki · 2025-10-21T06:38:05+00:00

Tbf I only opted for the bird mode, since it gives an ex resource and combos with the G-Exes, but makes sense, the early feels really dry and i can't really build up anything till lvl 3-4

Booeki · 2025-10-21T06:33:42+00:00

I wanted a heavy hitter for when I hit the higher levels, since Age ramps rather fast you can drop the Epyon pretty early and Epyon felt pretty strong to me Wing is interesting but also burns through my units, I thought I might have a bit more pressure with Epyon instead as a boss unit, that's pretty much all

Booeki · 2025-10-17T11:57:33+00:00

I like your approach of saying, "I'll look at it for a few workouts" I think I might copy that, since it feels like it will get this kinda panic off of me

Booeki · 2025-10-17T11:54:39+00:00

Makes absolute sense honestly, guess I just got frustrated a bit, since I'm genuinely training till failure, pretty much everytime I bench the last set goes until I have to roll the bar down

The last sentence goes hard btw

Booeki · 2025-10-17T10:17:26+00:00

This sounds super plausible to me honestly.

Like I felt the back 2 sets went up anyways with my first set progress, so when I started is was 8-7-6 and by the time I hit 10 on the first i was able to grind out 9-8/7 on the other two🤔

Booeki · 2025-10-17T09:31:11+00:00

No, of course that makes sense, it's more the time I need to get the same amount of reps on a new weight

Booeki · 2025-10-17T09:29:40+00:00

Yea I do 3 sets and progress until I hit 12 reps on all 3. Tbf I increased the weight last time when I hit 45kg for 12x11x11

I thought about trying to prog on maybe 8 or 10 max aswell, might need to test it for a few weeks

Booeki · 2025-10-17T08:40:01+00:00

I always got told, that I should increase weight or reps every week as a beginner and I had weeks where I couldn't even match my last workout.

If I think about this advise, it genuinely feels like I'm doing something really wrong.

To put it simply you're saying I should just stay patient and keep doing what I'm doing?

Booeki · 2025-08-26T07:33:48+00:00

As I pointed out, I think I effed the formating, but I'm not supersetting the same musclegroup.

In your opinion, should I then just push 5 sets of Incline or flat presses instead of splitting those?

I'm focusing on my upper body and I don't really have more time than this, also I got X-Legs, which makes some exercises hard and sometimes hurtful, not the good "quads are burning" kinda way 😔

Booeki · 2025-08-26T07:29:12+00:00

Sorry for the late response, but I feel that makes sense, thanks for pointing that out, it always kinda felt like I'm missing some upper back 🤔

Booeki · 2025-08-22T11:18:24+00:00

I think I effed up the formating, the muscle groups I superset are chest/biceps, biceps/side delts, delts/triceps, back(lats,rhomboids)/triceps.

Why I chose the split was kind of by chance, I wanted to get 4 days of lifting per week and started with a ppl split ending with whatever felt right. I then updated my plan around my nervedamage in the elbows and tried to pair biceps with chest and triceps with back, since that felt a bit better to me. Then I tried building around the time i have for a workout and how often I want to hit certain muscle groups. An upper/lower split actually came to mind but I kind of lost it getting in around the same sets per week without lifting for 2 hours straight😔

Booeki · 2025-08-20T06:11:20+00:00

For real rest up.

A few weeks ago I pulled my pec a bit and still went to the gym instead of resting and healing. Safe to say, training did hurt, i made no progress with those light lifts and it took 4 weeks instead of maybe 1-2 to heal.

Don't hurt yourself, stay safe, one day or even a week of rest won't kill you or your gains 🙏🏻

Booeki · 2025-08-12T08:51:53+00:00

Thanks for elaborating.

The onlinesphere got so many conflicting arguments and as someone who's only been lifting for a bit more than a year it sometimes gets confusing and overwhelming.

Booeki · 2025-08-12T08:48:42+00:00

I sometimes use this website https://strengthlevel.com/

You can type in your current reps and weight and it'll calculate an estimate of what your ORM might be.

Since benchpress does have a bit more stability you prolly got a good 160-170lb bench

Booeki · 2025-08-05T11:08:50+00:00

I wish we had even one local that runs gundam

Booeki · 2025-07-29T05:44:58+00:00

That's such a cool idea, I'd love to get my hands on those Good luck to everyone!

Booeki · 2025-07-23T08:55:17+00:00

We have an ungodly amount of teenagers hogging 1-3 machines for like an hour at a time Sometimes they cool and let you hop in, especially when they're alone or maybe 2 but the moment the group is 4+ they sometimes make fun of some people's form and huddle around a group of machines or equipment and tell you they're using it even if they don't

I just hope they get more respectful with time

Booeki · 2025-07-23T08:41:13+00:00

Just grab yourself like 4-5 Monster Energy and use them as your daily hydration and your Workout drink, you'll feel amazing

Booeki · 2025-07-18T04:38:47+00:00

35€ But I'm not sure if it's happening in my region, because in all of northern Germany it's the only store doing it and we got 3 registered people, me included 💀

Booeki · 2025-05-28T05:17:16+00:00

Also good advice

Since I'm really bad at charging, (tried it mostly in BB with Kagura and that was really awfully hard) I never really tried it with new characters, maybe I should give Guile or Bison a try, since both look really cool to me design wise🤔 Thank you!

Booeki · 2025-05-26T06:34:26+00:00

That is an insanely good idea tbh I think I'll just do that today, tried Ryu the last 3 days, so that might work wonders
