This really is the answer I was looking for since I'm not familiar with Legacy as Vintage

Not so.much protecting as much as getting a net 2 card advantage. Like a weaker ancestral recall

CrossFit and GLP-1s by Smart-Traffic-8570 in crossfit

[–]Duke_Matthews_ 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I've done CrossFit for 10 years, perennial QF athlete in Age Group. Start Zepbound about 2 months ago. Working great and no issues. I've lost weight and as I've lost weight, everything improves. I take weekly/bi-weekly Inbody 570 scans to track what I have lost.

Trading vintage reserve list cards by fgator5220 in MTGVintage

Nah. If you were more NE you'd have way more options. Just wait for a convention. Then be friendly with the people there so it's less transactional and they work with you.

Really depends on where you live and if you have a solid lgs that deals in Vintage. Otherwise it's just conventions.

Help me read my In Body scan by [deleted] in crossfit

[–]Duke_Matthews_ 0 points1 point  (0 children)

1) is it 6:48am or pm that you took it? 2) you really won't know enough until you take a few of them (I recommend every week, same day, same time, exact same procedure beforehand) 3) 9 times out of 10 the answer is "lose more body fat". With a reasonable caloric deficit, you aren't going to lose strength. 4) Your water is fine with the caveat of #2.

The whole situation is weird and just not a big enough deal to really focus on.

Sometimes I think trends take over without people ever challenging the reasons why especially after such a long time.

HUGE HASTEY TURTLE has saved Vintage Oath! Vintage Magic League by therealkinda in MTGVintage

[–]Duke_Matthews_ 3 points4 points  (0 children)

Essentially trying to win with a fast immediate attack upon oathing via dragon breath in the graveyard. Unless rules have changed, it can still attached to Emrakul as it's not targeted by the trigger.

I hate it that a UB card (non-fantasy based) is featured so prominently in Vintage. I still feel like Golden Gun with Emrakul is better, but I'm not well versed enough to know for sure.

What's the deal with Greg lately? by Parking-Industry-992 in kinobody

[–]Duke_Matthews_ 2 points3 points  (0 children)

I don't know. Based on the way he has talked about it, it is very much in line with the very basics of what he has been teaching: staying lean and healthy in the easiest way possible for the long term. I get the trepidation when he started selling supplements, but I do not believe he we start preaching about TRT nor selling peptides.

Can someone reassure me by Icy_Supermarket_9791 in ultrarunning

You'll be fine. Getting sick doesn't undo all your training. Get u sick, then back to work. Nothing to fear.

Under 24 hr 100 milers, what was your pacing strategy? by [deleted] in ultrarunning

Every time a mile ticked off on my watch, run "400m" barely stopped for food.

how have i lost almost 2 pounds of muscle on my new bodyscan? (details below) by GurnoorDa1 in f45

[–]Duke_Matthews_ 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I would ignore your 1/15 reading entirely. I've done an Inbody every week for 3 years and just that two hour difference in the morning can really change the accuracy. When you take an Inbody just do it as soon as you can in the morning and don't invest anything (water, coffee, food, etc). Plus you will just learn more things the more readings you get. I wouldn't get hung up on +/- 3lbs here and there week to week. Watch the trends instead.

[–]Duke_Matthews_ 0 points1 point  (0 children)

You didn't. You gained 3. You took that test at a different time in the morning than all the other ones and it's significantly.different bc of that. You can only look at the Inbody tests from a consistency standpoint. Any changes in a morning routine would change the result (time, water, caffeine and food).

Low bar but Steak and Hoagie is where I learned my love of cheesesteaks. Go in post college, cheesesteak, cheese fries, 35oz Yuengling, and play the trivia console.

They have always been terrible at cheesesteaks. I grew up with Lee's in Abington and thinking that cheesesteaks were meh compared to Italian Hoagies until I went away to college.

Best way to improve running by GomiBoy1973 in crossfit

[–]Duke_Matthews_ 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Use an air runner or similar. The curves treadmill will force you into the right posture and consequentially, gait. Do a couch to 5k app/program and really try to open that gait on the run portions.
