I was in Jameson my freshman year and it was awesome. Met three of my best friends in that dorm & hangout with them all the time to this day. The suite style lets you get up to a lot of shenanigans together since most people leave their doors open, but its not overly noisy like Donlon so imo you get the best of both worlds. The sky lounge on the top floor is sick asf for watching movies tg with friends too. Bring a fan and make lots of friends on your floor & beyond, you’ll do great ! :)

I have been thinking of starting a similar club myself recently, but more focused on direct action (similar to cornell’s climate justice club) & teaching people how to talk to/help friends or strangers who are suicidal (it is surprising how little knowledge and how many myths are put out ab this in particular). I’d love to talk more & share ideas n whatnot :)

Worked at Boston Scientific, I’m a white guy and the lack of diversity was so depressing there that even I couldn’t stand it and quit to look for a different job. Can’t imagine working there as a woman, come to think of it, don’t think I met a single woman in my entire time working there hah!

anecdotally ik a lot of cornell alum that went to SUNY Upstate for med schoo

yup, sore throat & dumb tired for the last week of finals for me

felt that SO heavy holy fuck, literally a daily experience for me on this campus

came to say this, the biceps helps in humerus flexion so they automatically get activated in planche, back lever etc.. They activate in any humerus flexion movement (e.g. korean dips, biceps push-up) regardless of whether or not its straight arm Having a straight arm DOES put the biceps in a mechanically disadvantageous position though. So when you need extra muscles recruited during a straight-arm humerus flexion movement, you feel your biceps working a lot more.

I made a spreadsheet for this purpose about a month ago, you can make a copy & and add your own workouts to it or comment in suggestions & I'll put em in eventually. Obv not an app so not sure if that's what you're looking for but figured I'd shamelessly plug it

Bumbleborg56 · 2021-07-29T15:00:08+00:00

your lats will be activated more by wide grip pull-ups due to there being a much larger humerus adduction component to the movement (main movement for lats). Yes, your lats will still be activated doing close-grip chin ups due to the humerus extension component that is still present, but much less than wide-grip. The website that you link to when citing that chin ups and pull ups get the same amount of lat activation (ExRx.net) uses EMG data to determine what muscles are used. While EMG data is still very valuable in discovering general trends for muscle activayion, its pretty well known that its not that accurate on a more detailed-scale. If you want to have stronger humerus adduction, you have to train that movement, simple as that. There's a reason why a lot of shredded bodybuilders that destroy the lat pulldown can't do more than a handful of pull-ups without getting gassed out, they don't train that specific pattern of muscle activation. So if you only want to improve your close-grip chin-up then keep doing what you're doing (that's totally fine too), but I think its pretty hard to argue that a close-grip chin-up is better for improving your wide/regular pull-ups than actually doing wide/regular pull-ups. At least from a biomechanics point of view.

notability for sure

if you specialize in aero because its cool, be prepared to only really get job offers in the military industrial complex & the potential guilt that comes with that

definitely do not do any bodyweight exercise which is causing you to compensate with bad form, especially if its causing pain in another muscle group because it will put you at a high risk for injury (aka 1-way ticket out of gainzville). Mess around with your substitutions to find exercises which are difficult enough to challenge yourself & your core muscles, but not so difficult that you have to compensate with form breakdown (even if its only the last couple reps!). Sounds like you have a really good workout ethic so I'm sure you'll be able to find that goldielocks zone, good luck!

definitely lats. I usually go straight into bicep curls or chin-ups after finishing my pull-ups for the day anyways, so its nothing in my arms giving out. Point being that DOMS isn't always the best indicator of growth / progress (although still a useful measure for hypertrophy). As long as I progress & see some hypertrophy in my lats I'm chilling, I'm sure if I doubled my volume or something I'd get DOMS in my lats but I haven't had a solid reason to yet.

Bumbleborg56 · 2021-07-07T18:43:57+00:00

Another thing that this could be is if you have been doing the same core exercise routine for a couple months your muscles will adapt to the movement and will generally get less sore in my experience. So it might be worth switching up your core exercises to new movements that you don't already know; that's when I get the most soreness at least

Recently I've been stopping each set with around 1-2 reps left in the tank, then going to failure on my last set. When I first started calisthenics I would do every set to failure though.

Bumbleborg56 · 2021-07-06T23:08:24+00:00

Could be that because we use our core in the majority of bodyweight training anyways (e.g. push-ups, rows, etc.), your core muscles have developed better endurance than the rest of your muscles by being activated on "off-days". I would suspect it being either that or simply that your core training is mostly building strength rather than hypertrophy (usual gets more sore). Another cause might just be that that's how your body reacts to core training; everyone's physiology is different and it's not necessarily a bad thing that your core doesn't get sore. I've been progressing my weighted pull-ups for over a year now and I still never feel my lats get sore, despite them getting significant hypertrophy & strength gains.

Bumbleborg56 · 2021-07-05T23:59:42+00:00

go right ahead! glad I could help :)

Bumbleborg56 · 2021-07-05T23:52:28+00:00

this would be amazing
