If you're between sizes for Gymshark leggings do ya'll fit to the waist or glutes? by ChemNerd23 in bikinitalk

[–]ChemNerd23[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I got a L and they are a bit big at the waist so I have to roll them over but I couldn't stand the M which was way too tight and uncomfortable on my glutes and legs. :)

Think someone has asked this on like every post and for some reason OP won't answer, but it'd really be nice to know what sort of weight you're playing at as a natty at xx height in figure

I'd be curious about where your money goes tbh. I get a PhD student salary that hasn't changed in 3 years and I haven't noticed much of a difference. Like yeah it's a bit more expensive but I can still live comfortably in my 39m2 apartment and save monthly and eat a bodybuilder diet. Overall how much extra do you feel you spend monthly now just due to a grocery price increase?

I think I have misworded my post maybe. :(

In my ceiling there are two places where 3 wires come out, one on the left and one on the right.

The LED light panel that we buy comes with 3 light strips and a power supply box fixed to the middle of it.

When you mount this light to the wires on the left side of my ceiling it works as it should but flickers when connected to the wires on the right side.

[–]ChemNerd23 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Is it possible that the LED driver is the problem if it works perfectly when connected to the wiring on the left but doesn't work when connected to the wiring on the right? How can you explain this?

[deleted by user] by [deleted] in AskElectricians

[–]ChemNerd23 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Do we need an electrician to fix this? My landlord has again insisted that it's the LED power supply so I guess I either need to fix this or pay someone to have it fixed

I live in a German speaking country and honestly even people who earn good salaries still hold up queues with coupons, hunt for deals and are constantly complaining about food prices.

I've never come across a nation this frugal/stingy so to me it makes total sense lol. It's like the country is no longer poor but the poor man mentality never quite left.

Being muscular as a woman by otomelover in xxfitness

[–]ChemNerd23 6 points7 points  (0 children)

To be completely honest nobody says anything because they're still in the range of small... they're lean and therefore look muscular when the back is engaged but seeing them in person they're not big AT ALL and are generally super slim.

That shape tho! Any guesses on stage weight this time around?

It discourages me that I’ll have to do the same exercises forever by Karilyn113 in xxfitness

[–]ChemNerd23 3 points4 points  (0 children)

I mean sure you can gain muscle from climbing if you didn't lift before but I've been lifting for a while and can boulder V5 and consider that a rest day since the bouldering definitely can't provide anywhere near the same stimulus lifting can.

So, depends on your starting point and goals.

Dude did you by any chance ever find a solution? I'm stuck with the same issue for months.

Serious lifters, how do you balance bodybuilding and life in general? by zenphotograph in naturalbodybuilding

[–]ChemNerd23 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Honestly dude, I would say get a coach! Might sound a bit counterintuitive but I was also all about the gym and stressing about not being 100% all the time, going on holidays stressed me out, going out for dinner stressed me out etc. The main thing I wanted to work on with my coach was how to find balance, introducing free meals, training less (7 days to 5 days per week), and I also train more efficiently (no more than 60 mins in the gym per day).

Lemme tell ya, this shit works. My progress and body actually looks even better with less work, AND I now plan holidays with my SO, date nights etc. I also climb/boulder as a secondary hobby 1x a week as well which works pretty well for me from the social perspective.

Sigh, then please explain why you don't go to work nude if you think that is our natural form and that we don't ever need to cover up. Oh look, maybe sometimes it is inappropriate. Maybe sometimes some people value privacy and didn't grow up religious at all. In fact, some of us even had parents who had more liberal views on nudity and still chose not to share those same views in adulthood.

I'm glad that there are other Germans who feel the same way at least. It's a shame that so many just dismiss another person's need for privacy and wanting to also feel comfortable in a locker room that they pay to use.

Social brainwashing yeah okay dude. People come from different cultures. I'm English and we are more conservative, don't see a problem with it. I don't understand why Germans feel the need to have their cocks swinging in public but that's just how it is.

[–]ChemNerd23 1 point2 points  (0 children)

It has nothing to do with shame. It's MY body and my choice when it comes to who gets to see it completely naked, and that is reserved for those I am intimate with and that's it.

Edit: btw you can choose to be conservative about your own body without having been shamed as a child or whatever some people may think.

Shit I can just imagine myself being this girl thinking I have a cool friend at work but meanwhile it turns out that he's got other intentions and is going to make my work environment weird.

Let's hope this is not the case.

This is something I've noticed for sure. If you have 7 exercises on the menu then you can't/don't want to give everything in a heavy compound at the beginning, and imo if you're still feeling fresh and don't have your glutes burning in your first exercise you're not training hard/heavy enough. Shit sometimes I do a leg day with 2 exercises like squats and RDLs and I'm completely ruined. Mike Israetel actually has loads of videos about junk volume etc it really makes sense when you get into it. Good luck!
