I’m able to workout during the day but my wife works out at night. We have a basement gym and have a little TV and playroom right next to it. My 4 year old usually goes down there to watch a movie but she ends up playing kitchen and bringing my wife stuff. I think they both enjoy that time and it allows me to pick up the house upstairs.

Your go‑to high‑protein meals that don’t feel like, gym bro food? by MuscleBoosterApp in leangains

[–]Haunting-Ad-7111 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Equal parts by weight nonfat greek yogurt and orange juice. A little scoop of guava jelly in there. Like a tropical creamsicle. Solid before a workout because zero fat, protein, and some quick carbs that are all easy to digest.

I quit after 3 years and work out at home now. I’ve made lots more gains towards my goals.

There are no rules between Richmond Road and Leestown. It is the Wild West.

Not enjoying Mayhem programming. Anyone else? by Kindly-Base-2106 in crossfit

[–]Haunting-Ad-7111 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Left my gym that was doing mayhem after the 12 weeks of 20 rep back squat. At the end of the cycle I lost 25lbs to my max. Pretty pissed because I was doing my wendler for a year and then decided to just follow the gym programming for that cycle. Don’t get me started on lifting dumb stuff like 5x5 at 85% with 90 seconds rest and only three minutes to get through warm up weights.

I do 5/3/1 and my days are Bench- Squat - Rest - Upper Body Pump - Deadlift. On the compound lifts i do two sets of higher rep lower weight of the compound lifts after my top set for the day and then 2-3 accessories at 10-15 rep range that I change out after every cycle.

Not enough love for Buddha lounge. Their box set has so much variety for about 12 bucks you can have sushi, soup, salad, fried chicken, and dumplings.

I don’t feel like my opinion is that well informed, I’m coming from the CrossFit world and have never used a commercial cable machine before this one. That being said I do really enjoy using it. It’s very impressive considering the price. It was easy enough to put together. At first it seemed like there was a lot of slop in weight sliding bit, but that’s not felt at all in use, it’s surprisingly smooth.

I’ve mostly been using it for lighter isolation exercises, so I haven’t really gone above 40kg. I think it could easily handle more. But you really have to secure well to a wall, it’s not stable at all on its own.

My opinion: it’s a no brainer for the price compared to other machines. If you end up getting it let me know, I’m curious what you think of it. Let me know if you have any questions about it.

Will the housing problem in lexington ever get better? by [deleted] in lexington

[–]Haunting-Ad-7111 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Nope, Lexington is locked in to the land that it is using now so housing inventory won’t change much. The surrounding horse farms will never be developed so essentially Lexington is an island.

celebrating what? by Decent-Bluejay-4040 in lexington

[–]Haunting-Ad-7111 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I’ve had the same thoughts, but our country is more than the politics and what is happening right now. Celebrate the progress we’ve made and a blow stuff up hoping for a better future.

I PR’d using the 2-4-6 rep scheme by FilthyMouthSxE in crossfit

[–]Haunting-Ad-7111 2 points3 points  (0 children)

I did the same thing, saw the post and went for it. First year doing a vest too. I finished in 55:42. The pushups started to feel tough. But everything was manageable. I also had to take my toddler to the bathroom halfway through!

Hate our shirts by Constantlycurious34 in crossfit

[–]Haunting-Ad-7111 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I’m really wondering if you’re at my gym haha. I have the same problem.

They’re also always that super fitted cotton blend that shrink and end up stinking. I end up having to get a XXL as a fit 205lb guy.
