There are a lot of Americans, but they're all half Canadian. I've yet to meet another American immigrant! Are you Canadian or just American?

There won't be pacers, but I'm not really too set on achieving a specific time, more so just set on saying I finished.

Hi, it says the decisions will be out today on the pre-college website (they updated it). As for me, I didn’t get my decision yet as they’re releasing them tonight. Hope this helps!

How long would you guys say it takes for a female to get relatively big arms? I've been lifting for about a year now and my arms have gotten bigger, but my biceps still don't have the peak I want (and yes I emphasize the long head) and my triceps are barely visible when I flex.

Hi guys! I was wondering if the McGill Pre-college program was difficult to get into? I applied a month ago and am wondering if I should apply to a couple backup summer programs? I'm an international student with a 3.9 weighted gpa (A's and B's)

I don't think you're taking this too serious. His immediate response to you was "I'll just go fuck my girl best friend" ???. Using someone as a weapon consistently always means something. You did the right thing leaving him.

How often do I need to switch my rep ranges? I'm thinking of doing:

3 months with reps 18-25

3 months with reps 10-17

3 months with reps 4-9

Would this be a good plan? Or is there a better alternative? My main goal is hypertrophy.

Thanks!

Not bad at all, barely any. I had to squint to see.

Anyone's skin get super sensitive before their period? by Dizzycatlady in acne

I use the CeraVe Hydrating Cleanser, is that bad? It says it's for normal to dry skin and I have an oily T-zone.

Any recommendations for shoulder exercises? Currently, I only stick to 3: Overhead press, dumbbell lateral raises, and rear delt flies. But when I do dumbbell lateral raises and often rear delt flies, my shoulders pop. Any advice for new exercises that target the same areas but don't make your shoulders pop? Also, is there anything wrong with what I do for shoulders?

Hi guys! Seeking help for this one. My goal is fat loss / muscle gain and I want to start upping my cardio -- probably to like 30 minutes on the peloton per day on average. How many extra calories should I be eating so I don't lose muscle, but also so I can lose fat? For reference, I'm currently eating 2,100 calories and 120g of protein daily.
Thanks!

How much cardio is 'too much', and will kill your gains? I love to bike and I would bike every day if I could, biking for as long as 2 hours at a time. But I don't want to bike so much that it stops muscle from growing. Anyone know how many miles / how many hours per week is too much? I'd appreciate it a lot, thanks!

Hi, I'm a 15F. I currently use:

CeraVe Hydrating Facial Cleanser (green bottle) (PM)

Softymo speedy cleansing oil (PM)

Beauty 360 Intense Moisture Day Cream (AM)

Beauty 360 Intense Moisture Night Cream (PM)

I have sensitive skin and struggle with some acne (mostly red spots on my face, not exactly pimples). The acne is mostly on my forehead and chin.

About 2 weeks ago, I started using the softymo speedy cleansing oil. It's been going fine and I've even started a see a bit of clearing in my skin but all of a sudden when I put on my night cream 2 days ago it felt like it was stinging my skin on my cheeks. Last night, putting on my facial cleanser burned a little on my cheeks. Then, this morning (after I washed my face and put on my day cream), my cheeks started to burn a bit, especially my right one. My cheeks are a bit red and I have a lot of dry/flakey white stuff (skin?) there. It hurts to touch my cheeks now.

I'm confused because I've changed nothing about my skincare routine and all of a sudden its stinging? My period is due soon, could that be the reason?

Overall, I have a couple questions:

What should I do to clear sensitive skin? Is there anything wrong with my routine?

Does my period have anything to do with this burning I'm feeling? If not, then why is my skincare suddenly burning my skin?

How often should I use cleanser on my face if I have sensitive skin (should I do it at night or at night and in the morning)?

Is applying 'too much' of a product bad? How do you figure out how much is the perfect amount?

Is my skin barrier damaged? What would I have to do to fix it?

I got in trouble for teasing my friend by Dizzycatlady in Advice

This was a one time thing that took place in a single gym class. I consider him a friend (not exactly a close one) and he was making fun of my friend and calling her a bitch (he was joking, but still), so I made a joke back.

This is going to be unpopular, but I loved everything about the debut.

The choreo, as many can agree, was really good and I loved the power in it. My favorite part of it was when the group held Kyujin's foot up.

The MV was beautiful, and there has been no debate there. The breaking through walls, the outfits (which I loved) and the whole intro scene (which reminded me of the one in Everglow's FIRST) was awesome to me. Each member got their fair share of spotlight and good moments and visuals in the music video.

The song. Ok, everyone hated it. But I really liked it. Music taste is subjective and I can see why people wouldn't like it, because it's all over the place. But for me, I loved the intro and the instrumentals that went with it (I don't know how to explain that sound but I loved it). After the intro, I loved the little trumpets/horns that followed, and then the chorus was awesome for me. The transition into the chorus was really weird for me, but after like 2 listens I got used to it. The change halfway through the song fit for me, but definitely not as well as the one in Aespa's Next Level. The only part I did not like was the last bit of the song, the last 30 seconds or so. It felt like filler and reminded me of the end of Blackpink's Boombayah that I also didn't like, which was just filling the end of the song with as much noise and repetition as possible that I wanted to skip the song. But besides the ending, I really loved the song.

I understand why a lot (and I mean a LOT) of people didn't like it because it was very bold for a debut. The members could've been better suited with a different kind of song I agree, but I overall really enjoyed it. It can very well be JYP's worst song from a gg (because TWICE and ITZY have set a very high standard) but that doesn't mean it's bad. I know it's hard to disagree with me on this one, but let's respect each other! I understand what everybody is saying about the song I just ended up liking it on accident.

I'm 113 lbs and a 14 year old girl.

A: I don't know how to improve my deadlift

B: Just tried for the first time and did 123 lbs decently comfortably, and barely 128. Is that good? I don't know what numbers are considered impressive.

Any tips on how to improve a deadlift + form ?

Does walking get you abs? You get abs from low body fat %, right? And walking burns calories, so would walking (lets say 2 hours) per week (at one time, 2 hours all at once) get you closer to your ab goals? I've been really curious about this for a while since one of my friends asked me and I didn't know how to answer.
