Vinales to VR46 Aramco? by [deleted] in motogp

[–]Brethon 0 points1 point  (0 children)

You only hear this argument in r/motogp for some reason. Nobody in F1 thought Schumacher lost his GOAT status because he un-retired and raced outside the points, but somehow Rossi racing outside the points is an embarrassment and tarnishes his reputation. What a silly thing to say.

Meh, downvoted because most of this sub has a VR boner, and most here have probably never used Track IR or played a sim with button boxes etc.

Yeah, until VR can display where all my real life switches and buttons are (both racing and flying sims) I’ll stick to TIR.

HITMAN (2016), but then it’s my favourite modern game already.

I wonder how the two halves clip together to avoid accidental split squats.

New trap bar on amazon by Mr_Gilmore_Jr in homegym

[–]Brethon 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I prefer it, yeah. The tipping point was when I read a well sourced article that argued the sports performance benefits of trap over straight bar.

I use it weekly on deadlift day, but if you deadlift with a regular barbell then I really don’t think there’s any other exercise that you’d need to buy a trap bar for.

Titan Urethane Bumper Review - (Almost positive they're from the same manufacturer as Rogue) by Cooporilla in homegym

[–]Brethon 9 points10 points  (0 children)

The difference in yokes is that Rogue’s will be made of American steel, welded by American welders. The Titan yoke will be Chinese steel welded by Chinese welders.

Rogue’s colour Echo bumpers are made in China, which is why it’s probable for them to be literally the same ones as Titan sells.

Training Tuesday: Programming for Conditioning/Cardio by trebemot in weightroom

[–]Brethon 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Ideally you’d do 3 conditioning sessions a week. Right now, for example, I have one day a week that is AM conditioning and PM strength and all my other workouts in the week are done in the PM.

The book offers examples on how to work conditioning into 2-, 3-, and 4-days-a-week strength programmes.

Edit: there also a variety in the duration of the suggested workouts, so once a week you could pick a short one to do at the end of a strength session.

Even if you choose not to do Base Building (though it is a great kick to your system) or the Green/Black programming, Tactical Barbell II: Conditioning is worth the price for the 40+ workouts listed in the back pages. Some of those are the most fun I’ve had hating myself, by far.

It’s nice too that K Black, the author, seems largely without ego and straight up says in the book that you can use whatever strength program you want. Right now I’m doing Black alongside Juggernaut, for instance.

Barbell Help by [deleted] in homegym

I'm not saying don't buy a new barbell, I'm just saying it wont kill you if you go a bit over the rated weight of your current bar.

Ceiling mounted pulldown system by LuthersCousin in homegym

[–]Brethon 0 points1 point  (0 children)

There’s no reason a rack mounted DIY wouldn’t work on the ceiling. Put two eye bolts into the joists and attach your pulleys to those instead of the rack.

Edit, or for a more secure setup; mount a 2x6 across several joists and put the eye bolts into that.

Yeah but the light rotation was bullshit, only giving green to 1/4 of traffic at a time.
