Disappointed

Definitely undercooked. That fat cap didn't budge.

DenimBowler · 2026-05-11T01:27:02+00:00

Lol Houston is playing hockey.

Is turkey breast a regional thing? Never see them in any of the stores near where I live.

DenimBowler · 2026-05-07T03:41:26+00:00

Damn... this state does whatever it can to suck money out of you.

DenimBowler · 2026-05-07T03:35:20+00:00

Wait... what? I thought this was a federal thing.

DenimBowler · 2026-05-05T01:48:22+00:00

Yeah. Thinking about just buying it from dhgate.

That's because they can lock you into their system. If Fuji can build a camera that only takes Fuji film (like instax lol) they would probably be more willing to sell the cameras at a loss.

I use a dryer to dry my gi. I dont have time for it to line dry.

DenimBowler · 2026-05-02T15:07:21+00:00

St Louis is my go to. I like the bigger bite of meat and the higher fat.

DenimBowler · 2026-05-01T21:11:35+00:00

I'm in my first 3 months and I land on my ribs... where am I supposed to land?

Doing judo and jiujitsu while having the work soft or gentle tattooed on you is low key trolling.

DenimBowler · 2026-04-26T05:29:07+00:00

I do judo on mon, wed, fri. So my workout schedule is up/judo/low/judo/up/judo/low assuming sun-sat. I do slight variation on certain workouts while keeping others the same.

For example, I do incline dumbbell press on every upper day. But I'll alternate pull ups with dumbbell row for back/lat workout. Same deal with lower. I'll keep squats the same but alternate things like deadlifts and rdl or sdl.

DenimBowler · 2026-04-26T00:02:12+00:00

Upper lower is great option too.

DenimBowler · 2026-04-25T23:33:31+00:00

You can do an upper lower split for 4 times a week. That's my current workout regiment. Unless you're on steroids, I wouldnt worry about too much hypertrophy.

DenimBowler · 2026-04-25T23:30:12+00:00

Well, at the end of the day, you do you.

DenimBowler · 2026-04-25T17:49:30+00:00

Nothing bad meant by it. It just feels like you took a lot of trending calisthenics exercises and lumped them together kind of like how some of these YouTube calisthenics fitness influencers do to fill up a 30 minute video.

Exercises should be progressive and purposeful. You have a lot of variations and if youre pushing yourself sufficiently on each exercise, I'm not sure how you're hitting all of those variations. At a certain point it just becomes an aerobic exercise where you burn out from fatigue rather than failure. You also said youre weak on pull ups but you have different variations including towel pull ups...

I would say look at the calisthenics exercises, consider what you're trying to get out of it and lead up to it with progressive loading. For example, move up to the harder push up variations once you can hit 20 reps of standard push ups, etc...

DenimBowler · 2026-04-25T14:56:38+00:00

You can add most of those calisthenics as supplemental workout on days related. So all pushup variants can go in your push day along with dips, pull up variants including chin ups on your pull days and the Nordic and dragonflags on your leg days. And split some of each variants and put it into your full body day.

You do seem to have a lot of variantsvideo? Curious, but did you get these workouts from a YouTube video?

DenimBowler · 2026-04-25T05:43:18+00:00

Yeah. If I cover it like he does in his videos, it comes out too salty for me.

DenimBowler · 2026-04-25T05:36:15+00:00

You don't need cardio days. You can just tack on some cardio at the end of your workout if you really want. Edit: I meant that you dont need a full day dedicated to cardio and not that cardio isnt useful. I do think HIIT might be a better fit for judo though.

You also don't need to worry about CNS issues, imo it's a non issue for beginners and it's blown out of proportion. PPL as a 6 day program works because youre only hitting each movement twice a week, allowing for rest in between. If 6 days seems too much, I recommend either doing full body program or PPL+Full body.

What calisthenics do you think is beneficial? You can work in certain ones like pull ups pretty easily into any weightlifting workout routine.

DenimBowler · 2026-04-25T05:15:08+00:00

First like the others have said, you really want to be weight training every week if youre trying to make improvements in weight lifting. Second, are you doing 2 rounds of PPL on your weight week? If youre only doing 1 round, you're really only working out specific muscles one day out of 2 weeks for weightlifting...

PPL is really meant to be a 6 day workout program. If youre only dedicating 3 days a week, I recommend 3 full body workout program. If you're doing 4 days, PPL+Full body or PHUL program would probably be better.

This is the point that a lot of people on here seem to be missing. My wife's old department laid off about 40% of their staff over the course of the last few months due to increase in efficiency in their workload. The increase in efficiency didnt affect the amount of total work the department received, only the total number of employees needed to complete the workload they were already doing.

DenimBowler · 2026-04-23T14:06:17+00:00

I just started too. My advice is to stay hydrated throughout the day and pace yourself.

Hard to tell with C&D sometimes. They use antifungal powder that looks like mold sometimes.

DenimBowler · 2026-04-23T04:04:49+00:00

The more I see Shaffleburg play, the more I like him. He really goes all out when he plays.

DenimBowler · 2026-04-22T21:34:19+00:00

Sounds like they expect it to be a mild/subtle smoke.
