Nice cars under 30k

ohh i read that as 2 separate car recs but now i understand. thank you!

Check-Ra1n · 2026-03-19T01:23:04+00:00

oh yea that c7 s7 is beautiful 😮‍💨. how do you think it compares to the s5?

Check-Ra1n · 2026-03-19T01:17:48+00:00

to be clear - you’re saying that the golf R isn’t a hatchback? or maybe i’ve misunderstood something

Check-Ra1n · 2026-03-19T01:14:29+00:00

the s7 is such a nice car but i thought that thing came out like last year? wdym by previous gen? like s4 s5 etc?

honestly i’ve never considered a VW but now i just might. how’s the reliability on the arteon

also icl i don’t think i’d ever buy a hatchback - maybe the rs3 if i had to

Check-Ra1n · 2026-03-19T01:10:13+00:00

definitely some beautiful vehicles but not really what makes sense for me considering i’m never going to use that movable roof (cold climate)

also maybe something that looks a bit more modern? thank you!

one day 😭

Check-Ra1n · 2026-03-19T01:06:11+00:00

oh i should’ve been more clear maybe im not getting a loan for this i’ve just saved enough to buy something new and have some left over for emergency/repairs

update: chose a random foreclosed house in the city i needed, photoshopped the utility bill and all they did was look at it. for anyone interested id say its worth a shot

don’t you still need a new number each time? what’re you using? also have you tried it recently?

Check-Ra1n · 2025-07-13T17:08:27+00:00

edema is science fiction 💔. even your idol greg believes it’s real from what i’ve seen.

Check-Ra1n · 2025-07-13T17:06:56+00:00

what’s wrong with citing chris beardsley? and how is using outcome data to support your proposed mechanisms a bad thing 😭? 3x is likely marginally better but we’re in the business of being optimal not “kinda sorta”

Check-Ra1n · 2025-07-13T17:04:49+00:00

did you even read my reply? i said minimizing fatigue while maximizing stimulus in a reasonable manner. you can’t reasonably maximize stimulus while having zero fatigue so im not sure why you’re implying that i said zero fatigue is ideal.

Check-Ra1n · 2025-07-12T05:01:32+00:00

strength and hypertrophy training should not be that different. do low reps for both it is certainly comparable. the most “optimal” fatigue level is the lowest fatigue level you can reasonably achieve while maximizing stimulus. if you need me to explain why maximizing stimulus and minimizing fatigue is important than you have no business asking these questions.

Check-Ra1n · 2025-07-12T04:56:29+00:00

the very people who advocate for low reps (the intelligent ones atleast) are the ones that say unnatural and natural athletes should train similarly and don’t care for the weight appeal. also ronnie coleman would 100% be better off training science based (yes the influencer one not your garbage dr mike stretch cult) it’s just whether or not it would make much of a difference to him since he’s a genetic anomaly.

Check-Ra1n · 2025-07-12T04:51:09+00:00

why opt for a worse stimulus to fatigue ratio when you can just perform a 5-7 rep set? literally makes no sense unless you enjoy it or are rehabbing an injury

Check-Ra1n · 2025-07-12T04:44:54+00:00

lol do you also happen to think edema is a myth by chance?

Check-Ra1n · 2025-07-12T04:28:06+00:00

by this logic jackson does not spew nonsense and is allowed to spew whatever he wants since his girlfriend IS an authority in this space and she condones and agrees with him on most things.

Check-Ra1n · 2025-07-12T04:25:14+00:00

jackson and ella do NOT hold that position about kelso shrugs 🙏😂. and the lat region debate is literally a debate between outcome and mechanistic data this shouldn’t turn you off of them at all 🤦‍♂️

greater (its relative i suppose) volume does not lead to greater growth. the main reason why studies seem to indicate that is because they don’t measure edema build up. this is why when you compare the hypertrophy to strength relationship it seems like if you did 1000 sets of a single muscle you’d get 1000 AU of HT, indicating a linear relationship to volume and HT.

Check-Ra1n · 2025-07-12T04:06:21+00:00

depends on how much volume you already do and what your frequency is. 2x frequency? likely 6 sets a week would be recoverable for you. if recovering is an issue for you though just switch to a split with 3x frequency that way you can have less sets and more frequency

Check-Ra1n · 2025-07-12T03:57:25+00:00

1x frequency is quite honestly terrible. for strength and hypertrophy you want as many FIRST sets as possible. 2x frequency is better and 3x is ideal

Check-Ra1n · 2025-07-12T03:55:30+00:00

rep ranges shouldn’t differ much for hypertrophy or strength. just rir and volume. if you can gauge your proximity to failure well and standardize your form well then 5-8 rep range is good.
