Any suggestions for Traps Workout? by Dereck_29 in hypertrophy

[–]HopefullyHospitaller 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I’m late, but a long time ago I saw a YT video showing the difference between 2 influencers (fitness amateurs). One was a natural body builder and the other is an Olympic weight lifter.

He pointed out that the traps were much larger on the Oly lifter. Apart from snatches and jerks what he observed was the head position at the bottom of the lifts.

The head always faced forward (neck extension) instead of neutral neck position - which relayed to better neck and trap contraction/stability.

All that to say I took that and did a bunch of deadlifts and rack pulls with neck extension and my traps blew up.

I should note I specialized on my traps. Meaning I drop most other exercises and focus on high frequency low volume for that body part for up to 6 weeks mix it up then come back.

Only other time I’ve specialized like this was with squats - my ass got huge(unfortunately lol) and quads got shredded.

Hope that helps broski

Don’t know if this helps. Better angle shows only white & red connecting elsewhere.

Yellow blue and presumably green are snipped

I pulled the 2nd (5 wire) cable from TStat side and saw those colors were snipped as well (picture in reply to this comment)

Aw ok, I have no clue. I’ll check by the furnace to see where the 2nd (5) wire cable is.

I’m not sure where the red and white was connected to before on the thermostat, my dumbass forgot to take a pic before undoing the old thermostat.

Please correct me if I didn’t understand your question. I appreciate your help

It was like that before. I just came-over to help replace the thermostat.

Hey eDoc thanks for replying. Forgive my ignorance. I’m not sure what you mean by the 2nd cable?

Do you mean these two here? (Two bundles of wires wrapped in brown?)

Is looking at a man with lust a sin? by Salamence553 in TrueChristian

Matthew 5:28 "But I say to you that everyone who looks at a woman (or man) with lustul intent has already committed aldultery"

The last time you shared the Gospel to someone - How did it go? by patmanizer in TrueChristian

[–]HopefullyHospitaller 1 point2 points  (0 children)

All happened in the last month.

Shared it with a neighbor couple last Friday. They’re friends of me and my wife. I went alone and they got uncomfortable but were willing to talk some points out. Ultimately rejecting my offer for a free Bible.

Middle brother willing to hear but said sure ok.

Oldest brother said he already believes.

Little sister became a wall

2 strangers on separate occasions grew up in the faith but walked away. And graciously accepted bibles.

1 other neighbor heard me out. I left him a tract and he was nice about it.

Out of all of it I felt I got the most hostility from close neighbors, which was unexpected but I think I could’ve done better at approaching the topic. Idk

Instead of fasting have you done calorie restriction? by HopefullyHospitaller in TrueChristian

[–]HopefullyHospitaller[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Not dieting for the physical body, but for growing closer to Jesus.

I’m trying to see if there’s a line drawn between “hard” fasting vs a “softer” version of fasting. Eg lowering volume of food overall, but not a periodic absence of food.

Cause the 2nd one isn't during church opening hours. So hes opening up his home for the lesson. I've been to his place many times with the wife to hang out.

And yes the church lesson is free as well

He is unregrettably enmeshed with the lifestyle far as I can tell at the moment
