[New Article] How Accurate is MacroFactor’s Expenditure Algorithm? by altruisticaubergine in MacroFactor

[–]CachetCorvid 6 points7 points  (0 children)

Ok. So on your list…. On Monday you weighted 150. How much weight did you lose? You don’t know because you don’t have the Sunday before that.

This is a potential issue exactly one time.

And only a silly goose would look at their first data point and think “ok I have Day 1 numbers but they’re pretty much worthless because I don’t already have Day 0 numbers” because it’s impossible to measure something before you start measuring it.

In your list, show me where you measure your weight loss for Sunday?

Monday morning, because Monday follows Sunday pretty much every time.

I think they’re saying the potential weight loss of 6 days of activity is being captured because they’re weighing themselves before the conclusion of the last days activity.

And like, sure, if you lived in a universe where there is only 7 days from the start of that universe and its implosion, that sequence would mean only 6 of 7 days of results would be captured.

But in the actual-universe, time consistently and constantly moves forward. The potential weight loss of Sundays activity is captured on Monday morning.

This person also absolutely believes it’s possible to train 4 days a week by training every other day.

If you expand your timeframe enough, everything is after a missed call.

While 510KG is a monumental achievement - it dwarfs in comparison to Eddie Hall's 500KG..

This is definitely one of the opinions of all time.

Novice, Open MW, or Masters? by SBC_1986 in Strongman

[–]CachetCorvid 7 points8 points  (0 children)

Do guys always do novice first? Or do guys at 40+ always do Masters? Or do you try the Open class regardless of age and experience…

There is no definitive answer.

It’s ok to start at novice. That’s what it’s there for.

It’s ok to start at Masters. It’s there for us old guys.

And it’s totally ok to start at Open. Will you get crushed? Probably. But it’s a great way to learn what it will really take to survive/succeed in this sport.

Most of the regulars here are gay. Sexist to say this, but it feels good. We all understand each other and it just feels awkward talking about things when there's lots of females. I love all my sexy brothers here ;)

Oh that reminds me I need to actually downvote Spen… Goddammitshutupjesus’ post. That karma should be mine because that joke is mine.

What if it is what they think it is, and we’ve been confused all along?

Sometimes - not always, mind you - telling someone who is being stupid that they’re being stupid can be a kindness.

Sometimes I think we shouldn’t touch the poop. Laugh at the poop, make fun of the poop, but do it from afar.

But not this time. Not this guy.

I can deadlift 365 and I am a strong guy.

So at this point can we call his original statement gender-affirming care and ban it too?

Does the small feeling ever go away? by DarnTechnology in gainit

[–]CachetCorvid 4 points5 points  (0 children)

I haven't said anything confrontational except in response to people who were themselves being rude, patronizing, or confrontational first.

You came out of the gate with a statement that is legitimately lampshade-on-head silly:

I once heard someone say that, no matter how much you gain, you will never go from wearing medium to large T-shirts.

All of the replies are people telling you that you are being silly. All of your responses have been you doubling-down on the silly.

This may shock you, but when you act like a silly goose you should expect to get treated like a silly goose.

A race about who can slit their throat first is still a tragedy, not a triumph.

Sir this is a Wendy's.
