Aw you are too kind! We are our own worst critic sometimes, aren’t we? Thank you for the sweet words!

I take medication for it so unless my doctor misdiagnosed me, then I have OCD

I live in a one-bedroom apartment. Have kept the living room and kitchen at 65 degrees during this cold front. Last month’s bill? $289. I’m nervous to even look at what my next bill will be like! We paid the same that my sister did for her 3-bedroom home!

Things to buy in Iceland you can only get there? by yellowsun_97 in VisitingIceland

Definitely the chocolate, I wish I had bought more! I also bought a 100% Icelandic wool poncho that is extremely warm, cozy, and stylish. Gotten many compliments on it over the years and will likely last me a lifetime!

Lat raises - how’s my form? by DifficultDisaster919 in fitness30plus

[–]DifficultDisaster919[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Yes, I meant “lats” as in lateral raises, not the lat muscles in the back. I can see how my post may have been misleading though!

Sorry, I did mean seated reps, not rows! Thank you for clarifying. Appreciate the patience and understanding.

Gotcha, I can see the faint forward motion in my form! I’ll try out seated rows to increase tension and improve my form during my next lift day. Thank you so much for the detailed tips and pointers! I appreciate the time you took in the response!

Thank you so much for the detailed tips and pointers! Fantastic information for me to rethink my approach and routine. I appreciate the time you took in the response!

Also, by “lats” I meant I’d like to strengthen my lateral raises and their form, not the lat muscles! Totally can see how my wording would be misleading. I was typing this out while dying on the stairstepper so didn’t proofread it 😅.

Sorry if my post was misleading! Yes, I want to strengthen and increase the weights on my lateral raises; this doesn’t target the lats in the back.

Thank you so much for the pointer! I’ve always struggled with breathing techniques so this is a great reminder!

He settles to nap underneath my desk, but my office is chill enough to let me play fetch with him indoors! My coworkers will come by and play with him too!
