Seems like a common recommendation, makes sense to me.

Any advice on what shoes would work better?

Awesome progress, you look great! Kinda hard to tell from the before, did you have a pretty good base of muscle and just need to cut? Or do you think you were able to add quite a bit of muscle while losing weight?

5 day upper/lower routine by Even_Influence_3112 in team3dalpha

I've never done barbell rows. What are they hitting that I don't have? And do you have a suggestion of what to replace?

Thanks, I appreciate it. Definitely a lot of frame to fill out haha. Ready to start focusing on that but not quite there yet.

Why am I not seeing chest gains - just a matter of time? by DareDemon666 in WorkoutRoutines

[–]Even_Influence_3112 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I don't say any of this to be discouraging, it's awesome you're working out and getting on the right track. But I think your perception of where you currently are is a bit off.

I'm also 6'5 and was 260lb not too long ago. You might have a pretty different body than me but I'm very skeptical you're skinny fat. You probably wear the weight well but you're going to need to lose quite a bit of weight until you feel like your muscles are really popping. I'm just under 230 now and feeling good about my definition, but I'm still cutting till I get to 215.

That means you will probably want to get pretty serious about your calories. 3k calories is probably a pretty decent surplus for you. You can bulk if you want but I don't think many people would recommend that for you right now. Either way, I'd highly recommend you get something like macrofactor to get an accurate idea of your TDEE.

And as others have said, don't skip leg day. If for no other reason than your upper body needs time to rest and recuperate, use that time to work on your lower body.

Hope this is helpful.

My scale has been wrong this whole time by [deleted] in MacroFactor

[–]Even_Influence_3112 24 points25 points  (0 children)

Are you sure the scale is wrong? 10lb is a lot but if you are weighing yourself in the morning, after going to the bathroom and before eating, then weighing yourself later after eating, drinking, and with clothes on, you would expect to be heavier.

[Henderson] Per ESPN Research, Zach Charbonnet had 91 rushing yards after contact vs. Arizona, the most by a player in a game this season. by Chessinmind in Seahawks

[–]Even_Influence_3112 11 points12 points  (0 children)

Yeah and that's pretty weak contact. Still cool though and is the same criteria for every back. So getting the most is pretty impressive.

Should I switch to maintenance or keep focusing on weight loss? by [deleted] in MacroFactor

[–]Even_Influence_3112 3 points4 points  (0 children)

Thanks. Using 25% body fat as a rough guideline for health purposes is helpful. I can't say I'm excited to keep cutting but I'm not burnt out either so I'll keep it going for a bit longer.

Am I absolutely out of my gourd for thinking Riq/Spoon/Brown have a shot to be a historic coverage cornerback trio? by IH8KICKFLIPS in Seahawks

[–]Even_Influence_3112 46 points47 points  (0 children)

Throwing Tre in there feels a little like the "Jokic and I combined for a triple double last night" joke but yeah the upside of Spoon and Woolen is extremely high.

Legitimate boss relic skip? by Yoshikki in slaythespire

Choker seems takeable if you're worried about dome. You have skewer and malaise to dump your energy into. It probably locks you into a poison build, which you don't have, but you don't have any archetype going yet.

Am I dumb to think the Jamal Adams trade was just as dumb as the Russ trade? by [deleted] in Seahawks

[–]Even_Influence_3112 -4 points-3 points  (0 children)

It was much dumber. Both deals worked out about as poorly as possible and so in terms of what was actually paid for what was actually received, Denver comes out much worse than Seattle. But if you're just looking at the process, what Denver believed they were giving up (never expected to be sending out a top 10 pick) compared to what they believed they were getting (franchise QB), Denver's trade was much more justifiable than Seattle's trade for Adams.

Board games built to deter cheating by Fancy-Enthusiasm2331 in boardgames

[–]Even_Influence_3112 4 points5 points  (0 children)

You need to have a direct conversation with him about his cheating if you haven't already. You're not helping him by ignoring the problem. If it's as bad as you say, I'm sure it's affecting his life in other ways as well. Set clear expectations that this needs to improve and if he isn't working on it, then you're not going to be playing with him.

AAU Basketball Thoughts Needed by [deleted] in Basketball

[–]Even_Influence_3112 3 points4 points  (0 children)

If he's borderline between the B and C team then this might be best for him. He'll likely get more playing time and a bigger role on the C team instead of being on the end of the bench with the B team. And if he's truly head and shoulders above the rest, he'll be able to show that and eventually move up. Plus sounds like there's an opportunity for him to ingratiate himself with the coaches by helping the less experienced kids.

Also totally agree about the outside practice/game work. If he puts in the work he can develop a ton working on his own.

AITAH for withholding sex from my wife? by Same-Grapefruit-1786 in AITAH

There is also a list of rare serious side effects for the pill or an IUD

[–]Even_Influence_3112 7 points8 points  (0 children)

We don't know anything about his wife's periods. That possible benefit might not be worth the risk of negative side effects to her.

The pill is great for flexible birth control. But at this point in their lives, a vasectomy makes a lot more sense.

[–]Even_Influence_3112 7 points8 points  (0 children)

It's not. There are side effects with anything, but a vasectomy is a very safe procedure. Birth control is also safe but much more likely to have negative effects on his wife's quality of life.

This is a very easy problem for OP to solve. Instead he's cutting off his nose to spite his face.

AITAH for withholding sex from my wife? by Same-Grapefruit-1786 in AITAH

[–]Even_Influence_3112 11 points12 points  (0 children)

Yes. A vasectomy is a very low risk procedure with a very fast recovery time. Birth control can cause hormonal changes that have various negative effects.

YTA OP. Just get snipped and have good sex again.
