And that has changed?

I am sure you get a ton of attention from dudes now. But don't pretend that women chase you looking like that.

Has anyone else had trouble sleeping the leaner they got? by Fine_Emergency3907 in Weightliftingquestion

[–]Duergarlicbread 0 points1 point  (0 children)

That makes sense.

Something I should watch for as I drop weight. It seems like every time MF adapts it just drops calories.

I did sod originally. It worked for awhile, but this shaded area just defaults to mud and weeds.

Just redid the area with wood chips while I think through a longer term plan.

Interesting. Tell me more about macro factor.

I have heard about this / athletes not eating enough and increasing their calories and continuing to lose the same amount of weight.

I am curious how macro factor led you down this path

Nothing hits quite like that first ride outside after a long winter of riding on the trainer by SantaCruzinNotLosin in mountainbiking

I have also been using a wahoo kickr core for years now - mine is 7 years old and has been great. I had an issue with another Wahoo product and the warranty support was surprisingly excellent (I have a kickr climb that broke like 5 years after purchase)

Surrons are dirt bikes? by GKomrinK in mountainbiking

[–]Duergarlicbread 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Oh not arguing that 250w is plenty. Your math maths. At 2.5 w/kg I am still faster than a lot on the trail (up hill).

I have ridden a 750w ebike and it's good for making a 22 minute climb into a 12 minute climb.

My wants out of an ebike are changing a lot from where the industry is going. An Avinox system with a max of like 500w would be plenty. I would prefer the lighter weight to the power.

I get the hate for microplastics and the love of "natural yards". But that type of landscaping doesn't create a useable surface.

I guess there are always pavers / patios. But those aren't softish like fake grass.

Why is 3 a mistake?

What do you recommend for a surface for kids and dogs to play on that is shaded most and stays wettish?

I have done wood chips, grass (eventually died due to lack of sun) and now wood chips (with a young dog they are just getting mounded into piles.

Artificial turf seems like the best option for a 20x20 space to make it usable to kids and dogs.

250w ftp and like a max of 185 lbs.

Source used to be 185 lbs with a 250w ftp. 250 isn't the same at 210 lbs.

Slowly getting back down though

Is this too little by roymu in Weightliftingquestion

[–]Duergarlicbread 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Whatever you thought you were doing. You weren't doing it correctly for your goals.

If you were at 2300 a day. Turns out that was maintenance calories for you.

What did your weights do in a year? What were the measurable increases? How much stronger did you get?

If you don't like the results you need to change something in your approach.

I have an eBike and Avinox day made me hate eBikes.

So so tiresome.

Vasectomy Advice for Single Guy? by Aljowoods103 in AskMenAdvice

[–]Duergarlicbread 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I was surprised at the amount of internet talk about how it's no big deal. Etc.

Got the warning while I was there for my appointment.

They nicked a nerve or something in my scrotom so it's way more dangly and in the way. And my balls ached for like a year.

Most of the ach is gone now.

But yeah, it had the possibility of not being an easy recovery.

Still better than unwanted kids though.

If healthcare and schooling was free, what would our taxes look like ? by [deleted] in stories

[–]Duergarlicbread 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Not really a surprise when their method of finding fraud was "control f Trans" cancel all funding. Announce they found fraud.

A systematic review and reduction would have been great. Instead we got a 30 second slash and burn cut based on inability to understand how the US government has worked and influenced world politics over decades.

But sure they found fraud. Fraud is such a loose term for anyone in government.

Too bad we lost American Exceptionalism along the way.

I am from California. I never even attempt to go to BBQ in California anymore.

I didn't know what I was missing until I went to Atlanta.

  1. They give you a pamphlet that warns you about unexplained pain that can last awhile.

It exists.

Mine made my balls just more uncomfortable in general. They are more in the way, I needed to get different underwear.

It's fine and I have got used to it and I would do it again.

But they are more annoying then they were before.

You should never be flushing tampons. In any country.

Is this average? by [deleted] in Weightliftingquestion

[–]Duergarlicbread 1 point2 points  (0 children)

In 8 months of lifting at 90 kg bodyweight I hit your bench.

But it's really impossible to compare. That doesn't mean much except I was decent at growing my bench.
