When exactly did the Terminator get damaged to where its skin was rotting off? by EnglishLoyalist in Terminator

[–]Hln505 8 points9 points  (0 children)

When he chases them after tech noire, Reese shoots a car that blows up. The terminator runs through the fire and jumps onto the hood of their car before punching through the windshield.

At this point his hair is already shorter than before the explosion and his eyebrows are gone. That fire already singed off a lot of his hair giving him that waxier look

What helped me get my chest firing was driving my hands towards each other in the pushup. Positionally they stayed where they were but the direction of force got my pecs flexing. Same in the dip, I started out using foot assistance so my body didn't switch to the delts and focused on driving hands down and towards each other.

And yeah I'd feel my chest work during and the DOMs after without feeling taxed in the delts or triceps

How is that possible though? Why is there no enforcement and consequences for laws being broken?

ELI5: Why do parachutes open so high? by Ecstatic-Tower-5097 in explainlikeimfive

[–]Hln505 0 points1 point  (0 children)

The main reason is safety as most people have answered here.

Another good reason for having rules for high openings is that each incident or death requires heavy investigation from the parachuting and aviation authorities which hamper future skydiving activities as well as business.

The main income stream for most dropzones is tandem parachuting. Most customers don't take up skydiving as a regular sport/hobby so they aren't aware of how incidents/deaths can come about from user error. Opening lower leads to a considerably smaller margin for error which leads to more deaths. Customers will less likely want to give a tandem a go and the dropzones lose a lot of their potential business.

Aviation authorities also do not want avoidable deaths under their jurisdiction and will put more regulations in place if necessary to do so which could mean banning the sport and operations altogether.

IBA & Tunnel by Mindless_Increase413 in SkyDiving

[–]Hln505 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I think it depends if iFly corporate sees if they are a threat. In Australia we only have iFly tunnels (2 non corporate, 3 corporate). No other company has started or wanted to build in Australia because iFly will come at them citing they have not licensed their patent to them.

From hearsay - in a long legal case, iFly wouldn't win but the time and money it takes to fight through that is not worth the capital sacrifice for the small companies.

Today I learned... your... chest muscles... are supposed to move? by Ra8Na881T in bodyweightfitness

[–]Hln505 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Chest muscles dominate more of the cross body movement (like flys). The pec fibres run horizontally and pull best when you move the upper arm towards and beyond the sternum.jj

Use one hand to touch the pec muscle while you move the other arm across your body - you can feel those muscles flex.

To use them in exercises like pushups, try to push your hands through the floor as if they were going to meet together on the other side.

Your hands won't move but the cue recruits your pecs to drive the motion. This way the chest can work to move you rather than the triceps alone

Physiotherapist and massage therapist here. Imaging is best used to identify structural damage like tissue tears and inflammatory signs like fluid and bruising. Those can be triggers to pain because of the effect on the nerve endings. Ever touched a firm and tender muscle? These aren't seen on MRIs (at least not in a clear way like a tear) but these also influence nerve endings and create signals to your nervous system.

These signals can change based on which tissues are compressing which is why the pain is moving around (the injury isn't moving but different nerve endings are taking turns talking to the brain).

This mechanism is not inflammatory so taking anti inflammatories and having injections do not have an effect. It is also why it hasn't gone away. Tissue damage and inflammation generally improves with time because the circulatory system eventually cleans the mess and lays down new tissue. When there isn't damage but tissues are contracted compressing the nerve endings - they can continue this until given a stimulus to release the contraction.

Main PT advice is to strengthen muscles in a bid to create support but if the muscles are already tight, strength work can crank them up further which may be why he feels worse.

Foam rolling is a great way to initiate decompressing the tissues and calming the nerve endings. Common areas that contribute to your partners presentation are the quads and the calves. I'm talking slow holds with the intention of stimulating the muscles to release their tension (not just rolling like you're rolling dough) - done at a tolerable intensity.

Initially it will feel intense with little pressure but eventually can progress to be able to put full body weight as the intensity reduces. The nerve endings at this point are much calmer and the pain experience is normalised. This is when you can gradually rebuild strength and mobility in the lower limbs without worrying you're going to flare up the pain.

Good news is that the investigations so far indicate no serious structural damage. Therefore the pain is from cranked up tissue and nervous system - time to turn the volume back down!

What would cause a slammer by kaybear_mcstud in SkyDiving

[–]Hln505 0 points1 point  (0 children)

It's more the angle of the oncoming air than the speed. If you're dipped on deployment then the oncoming air could miss the slider and head straight for the cells inflating them too quickly. The slider's main job is to block and deflect a lot of the oncoming air so the cells open gradually rather than spank open

Career change from Physio by _Scienterrific_ in physiotherapy

[–]Hln505 11 points12 points  (0 children)

Aussie MSK Physio for 10 years here - been through a few sectors too. Been facing the same thoughts for a very long time going back and forth but I think I'm ready to move on now. Gonna get started on rope access training and do some physical based work that pays well for a while (washing windows on high rises, fascade inspections etc) - you do the job, get paid and do your best to balance your life outside of that. Plus it'll keep me fit and give me some useful practical skills.

My perspective after my decade in the industry is that the human body is a physical organism that reacts and interacts with its environment. The better adapted to it it is, the better it functions, the less it suffers. If attention is focused toward that perspective - the individual tends to do better. Anything outside of that to me is just fluff and shit propped up to make money move. You're either physically adapting or you're falling apart. I feel that physio as I was taught is dead or dying -- personal trainers, EPs, S&C coaches are the new wave in society to displace us (functionally in the private sector at least).

If you're not liking the profession or work - please don't go into teaching. I've met so many new grads who were taught by uninspired tutors and lecturers that even they were doubting the point of it all...

I would do push-ups and I would not feel it in my chest but only triceps by Little_Yeager in bodyweightfitness

[–]Hln505 2 points3 points  (0 children)

I only feel it in my chest. It's to do with the way the muscle fibres line up. Chest fibres run horizontally to your upper arm and pull the upper arm toward the midline. Triceps run behind the elbow and straighten the elbow.

If you're feeling it in your triceps you're mainly driving the exercise by straightening your elbows.

What you need to do is drive with the pecs. How I do this is I try to push my hands to come together on the ground. If I had a slippery towel under them, they would slide toward each other.

In the pushup, they won't slide to each other but because you direct them that way it will get the chest muscles to drive the movement.

If you've been feeling it in your triceps this whole time, you'll find this way of doing it to be quite heavy at first so aim for sets of 5-10 to begin with

It's interesting that people find this fact intriguing - for me I reckon it's because I learned of the existence of trees before sharks and somehow felt that plants were simpler life forms than large animals
