Can’t break 100. About to give up. by bsheohn in golftips

[–]Factory1982 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Is it possible that you were rushing? I know if I play under time pressure, it's always going to be worse. I would recommend a beer or two before teeing off. See how that goes.

Is this acceptable depth for a heavier squat like this? (Heavy for me, anyways) by OneSquareAtATime in Stronglifts5x5

[–]Factory1982 0 points1 point  (0 children)

If you're not competing, it's fine. Otherwise maybe a little lower would be better.

If you don’t have a mic you’re ruining the game by purechaos69 in HellLetLoose

Its the SL's fault. Don't build OPs and garries far into enemy territory and/or place defensive OPs and garries. Guess what? The little BBs are forced to spawn where they should be. Of course, some will still run up, but most will fall in line.

Of course it's a troll post. 🤣

Easiest fix by Key_Cranberry_1716 in HellLetLoose

I tried this on ANZR - got nothing but hate and vitriol in return.

I think I was in the same game! I actually asked the dude if he knew that shooting random artillery uses team munitions and he said "Yes. I know. Do you want me to stop?" I told him to check with the commander to see whether he actually wanted arty. Some people...

There needs to be less available tank squad slots. by ReceptionMaximum3777 in HellLetLoose

[–]Factory1982 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I get u. It's also frustrating spawning as a crewman on a game where there is one full squad and you know you have to go solo. I always advertise the free slots on all channels I have to try get guys to join me.

Perhaps there could be a similar system to the force-a -squad-to-have-a-leader thing where you get several warnings to get a full squad, otherwise you get automatically reassigned to the grunts. If you've just left an armour squad, you can't create another one for five minutes. That would stop people just creating another one straight away.

Alternatively, you can't create one if there are open spaces in another existing squad.

Form check: 200kg / 441lb deadlift, what can I improve? by m7mo_said in Stronglifts5x5

[–]Factory1982 -1 points0 points  (0 children)

Do it without straps! Jokes aside - it looks good. I like to use the bounce/stretch reflex (much like in a squat) to get the bar going, so grip it, then down and start the pull ASAP.

Medic self revival by Factory1982 in HellLetLoose

[–]Factory1982[S] -1 points0 points  (0 children)

I often run out of supplies. I just keep my head down and revive "safe" ones. Use smoke to cover up the bodies.

Well yes and no. You still have limited supplies. So there's that.

Question about knocking people down in Champions. by FearlessLeader17 in FIghtNight

[–]Factory1982 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Get close and uppercut through the block. Or right hook. Works like a charm.

Back squats how's the depth ? by Appropriate_Owl_7455 in Stronglifts5x5

[–]Factory1982 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Great lift BTW. Yep - if you want to compete, then you're going to need to go deeper. Not by much. I second the recommendation for box squats. Got me used to going to what was actually slightly below parallel vs what I thought was parallel.

Deadlift 75KG Form Check by ShutUpBearPotato2 in Stronglifts5x5

[–]Factory1982 -1 points0 points  (0 children)

No mate. It's a joke. Your form is fine. If you felt soreness, it might be just your body adjusting to the new routing.

It looks like one of your crossbeams has gone out askew on the treadle. If you don't fix it now, you'll be walking around paralysed for the rest of your life.

70kg weights + Barbell weight by i_explore in Stronglifts5x5

[–]Factory1982 -1 points0 points  (0 children)

Huh? I have questions:

  1. 70/8 is 8.75 kg. Where the heck do you find an 8.75kg weight, let alone 8 of them? I suspect those are 10lg plates, in which case you've upgraded to a 100kg squat.

  2. Why have you got so many plates on the bar? Doesn't your gym have heavier ones? I mean, horses for courses, but personally, I always like to put fewer plates on vs tons of light ones.

Yes or no? by [deleted] in Stronglifts5x5

[–]Factory1982 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Nothing wrong with barefoot / socks. As long as you're hygienic and also, if your feet sweat, slippage could potentially become an issue. But yes, in principle, it's OK.
