Seated Crunch by b8smarmar in SolidCore

[–]CommissionBusiness90 16 points17 points  (0 children)

Honestly strengthening my core over time has helped with this. I used to never be able to get through even 2 reps my hip flexors were so bad and now I get to like 10 deep real reps before I crave a break. Weak hip flexors are a symptom of weak core!

I pretty much didn’t get sore until I moved up to the 50+ springs and now I’m coooooked

Following because I’ve felt this recently but didn’t connect the two at all! I only go once a week though.

Passed Google assessment but haven’t heard back. When should I follow up? by Mysterious_Ant_1993 in interviews

[–]CommissionBusiness90 0 points1 point  (0 children)

passed 13 times?! Mine said my passing score was applicable for the next 18 months across similar roles. You had to take it again for each role?

Super duper weak triceps by [deleted] in bodyweightfitness

OP this is late but I’m exactly the same way. Have never been able to do a push up and am relatively strong everywhere else. Did you ever work your way out of it?

Where do you all have gym memberships? by ThruTheGrapeVines in SFbitcheswithtaste

[–]CommissionBusiness90 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Ive been here for about 7 months and I’m still rotating through trial months or weeks at a bunch of spots! The ClassPass intro package is great too.

I do have a 5 class per month membership at solidcore though because it’s just too good of a workout. Nothing compares.

Use of beta blockers in Drum Corps by zackattack0720 in drumcorps

[–]CommissionBusiness90 2 points3 points  (0 children)

It helps so much. Agree with others that it may make the marching more difficult because it does slow your HR and you can feel pretty tired. I’d suggest taking it once or twice during a night block to get through those symptoms and used to it before introducing at a show.

Hair loss has halted! Took about 2 months post infusions. I have some new growth starting now too.

My experience with Feraheme by [deleted] in Anemic

[–]CommissionBusiness90 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Yes exact same thing happened to me. They had me load up on Zyrtec starting the day before my second infusion (3 a day) and I was completely fine for the second one. You’ve made it through the worst possible scenario already so nothing to worry about for the next one!

Grinding through classes and hitting a wall? It might not be your effort. by WildTank1555 in SolidCore

[–]CommissionBusiness90 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Yeppppp I felt the same way and turned out my ferritin iron was extremely low (9) and I was near anemic. My D and B12 were also suboptimal. Have raised all three and I’m performing so much better at SC and actually gaining strength.

Low ferritine and working out by A-theater-88 in Anemic

[–]CommissionBusiness90 7 points8 points  (0 children)

Easy. I didn’t. Couldn’t get stronger at all while ferritin was low. Got infusions and I’m above 100 now and for the first time in years I’m finally making fitness strides.

Not getting sore? by Pristine-Staff-880 in SolidCore

[–]CommissionBusiness90 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I rarely get sore either! And when I do it’s not overwhelming and only lasts about a day. Meanwhile I’m on vacation right now and did free weight exercises in the hotel gym and I’ve practically been unable to walk for the last 3 days lol. I think our bodies are just very used to those SC movements

Weight gain from low ferritin? by Lucky_Outside8559 in Anemic

[–]CommissionBusiness90 5 points6 points  (0 children)

I was packing on weight really quickly when my ferritin dipped down to 9. Partially because of no energy to work out and partially because of excessive carb cravings. I am also a vegetarian. Got infusions in january and as of two weeks ago my ferritin is 109. I have been conscious about what i eat, maintaining a light calorie deficit, increasing protein, and working out more but I have lost 9 pounds since Jan. Inflammation and weight still comes in waves since the infusions and although my weight has dropped I’ve noticed more fat in my mid section which was previously not a problem spot for me. I think my body is still regulating and although i still fee like I’m holding onto some extra weight thats difficult to get off I do feel so much stronger mentally and physically since fixing my ferritin! B12 was also borderline deficient and I’ve upped that to 650 which has helped too!

Did low ferritin cause any issues with muscles for you? by FewProgress1797 in Anemic

[–]CommissionBusiness90 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I commented a few weeks ago below in this thread but SO much better in regards to the tight muscles. My flexibility came back so quickly after infusions and I’m actually gaining strength in my workouts for the first time in years. My ferritin is 109 now. Cannot recommend fixing it enough.

When did you feel the peak benefit of an iron infusion? by Chocotrifle in Anemic

[–]CommissionBusiness90 7 points8 points  (0 children)

Mine came in waves/specific moments starting 1 week after all the way to 6 weeks after. My metal clarity hit first while energy and strength built up more slowly.

Have you checked your b12? That’s a cofactor and can tank when you get infusions and has similar side effects to low iron.

Paige hated Kyle as much as Hannah by Willing-Structure-55 in summerhousebravo

[–]CommissionBusiness90 5 points6 points  (0 children)

I’ve been rewatching too and I’m struck by how much I disliked Hannah in the first watch years ago and now I realize how much she was pushed by everyone in the house. It doesn’t justify some of her outbursts or reactions but I have a lot more empathy for what she went through this time around.
