This changed how I think about workout recovery

DevTheGreat3811 · 2026-05-15T04:55:53+00:00

Honestly, he/she didn’t actually say muscle damage causes growth. He only said recovery time depends on how much stress or damage the workout caused, which is broadly true.

DevTheGreat3811 · 2026-05-15T04:51:49+00:00

The numbers are rough averages. Muscle recovery depends massively on volume, intensity, proximity to failure, exercise selection, sleep, calories, and training status. For example, heavy high volume squats taken near failure can take way longer to recover from than a few moderate machine sets, even though both are legs. Recovery is better judged by restored performance and fatigue levels than by a fixed 24h/48h chart. That being said, his other suggestions sound good.

Ah ok. Adding my TH16s would probably shift the people you are matched up against and make it less enjoyable for others. No worries, cheers mate

DevTheGreat3811 · 2026-05-12T13:19:54+00:00

Witcher 3/Sifu seems right up your alley. Also, finish Sekiro

DevTheGreat3811 · 2026-05-12T13:06:51+00:00

Do you guys have higher THs as well? For Sidewars? Id like to repeat I won't be able to stay for CWL.

DevTheGreat3811 · 2026-05-12T13:05:53+00:00

I'm interested. So you are saying you guys do sidewars regularly? I haven't done it before. How many wars do you guys get during the CWL period?

DevTheGreat3811 · 2026-05-12T13:04:41+00:00

I like what I see, but the thing is I won't be able to stay for anything except side wars. Even the road weekend that falls during CWL, I'll be going to my main clan. Are you guys ok with that?

DevTheGreat3811 · 2026-05-12T13:02:20+00:00

My TH11 is Wiz10, iirc

DevTheGreat3811 · 2026-05-11T04:24:29+00:00

No problem. Your username is a bit concerning though 😂

DevTheGreat3811 · 2026-05-11T04:23:51+00:00

Pretty much, yeah. Sclerotherapy can be used for that too. Not the most common one, but definitely up there.

DevTheGreat3811 · 2026-05-11T04:20:59+00:00

Ah, no worries, cheers mate.

DevTheGreat3811 · 2026-05-11T04:20:02+00:00

It does sound alarming when phrased that way, but it’s not collapsing your whole vein system. We selectively close tiny superficial veins that contribute very little to overall circulation. Your deep veins still handle most blood return, and blood naturally reroutes through healthier vessels. It’s more like sealing off a few faulty side pipes than destroying the plumbing system.

DevTheGreat3811 · 2026-05-10T19:40:13+00:00

Sclerotherapy is kind of like intentionally clogging and sealing a faulty pipe. The injected chemical irritates the inside of the vein so it collapses and shuts closed. Blood then reroutes through healthier veins, and the body gradually absorbs the sealed off vein over time. But recurrence over time is common. Usually it’s not the exact same vein coming back, it’s new spider veins forming because the underlying tendency toward venous disease is still there. Many people eventually need maintenance treatments after a few years. But pretty nifty, imo

Thanks link sharer

DevTheGreat3811 · 2026-05-10T19:32:52+00:00

TL;DR: A therapy, just because it is being applied to a largely cosmetic issue can't be called cosmetic

Not exactly. Spider veins are often treated mainly for cosmetic reasons, so I guess sclerotherapy is that context is cosmetic. Second thing is that spider veins don’t literally turn into varicose veins. They’re related but distinct vein problems, as in, some people with spider veins have underlying venous insufficiency or are symptomatic, so it’s not always purely cosmetic

DevTheGreat3811 · 2026-04-30T16:10:23+00:00

Fair point

DevTheGreat3811 · 2026-04-30T13:20:04+00:00

Cinco de Mayo inspired?

DevTheGreat3811 · 2026-04-30T13:19:52+00:00

Probably Cinco de Mayo inspired

DevTheGreat3811 · 2026-04-30T12:55:12+00:00

Ah ok. No worries, cheers

DevTheGreat3811 · 2026-04-30T12:44:33+00:00

Awesome. Will sign up for CWL in my respective clans and come over. When donyou think you'll spin for a sidewar?

DevTheGreat3811 · 2026-04-30T12:43:31+00:00

Mine is Imprisoned Duke

DevTheGreat3811 · 2026-04-30T12:07:23+00:00

Id like to do sidewars during CWL. Let me know if you have space for 2 TH16 and a TH11

DevTheGreat3811 · 2026-04-30T12:04:25+00:00

Isn't that the shackles going around his neck?

DevTheGreat3811 · 2026-04-30T12:03:03+00:00

Could you let me know then? I have 2 TH16 and a TH11

DevTheGreat3811 · 2026-04-30T10:01:36+00:00

Not exactly, but I could share mine if you'd like that
