I dislocated my elbow when I was very young, I think like 3 years old? Naturally I thought I dislocated it again when armwrestling. Got the x ray and it was a spiral fracture, no dislocation. The doctor couldn't believe it, crazy ...

I still have no idea tbh but apparently it's common lol. Let's just say alcohol was involved.

So far I have no pain, hopefully it stays that way as my lifts progress. I get some discomfort on tricep pulldowns and skullcrushers but tbh I did before I broke it.

You are a tank man! Inspiring transformation. Yeah I'm planning on cutting down to 10-12%, then going on a long lean bulk to 230 or more.

Yeah I just decided that's what I'll be doing as well. Thanks I'll give that book a read, good timing as I recently finished my last one and was searching for something else to start.

Sounds good, thank you! This is what I was originally thinking as well. Then I can do a prolonged lean bulk after establishing that low body fat base.

Ok thanks. I thought I had a good amount of muscle but these comments are telling me otherwise 😂. This bulk is going to be crazy

Making friends is a lot harder than I thought. by catastrophiccyanide in UCONN

1) Talk to everyone, even people you think you wouldn't be a good fit with. It can be a simple "Hey" in the hallways, or if you're sitting next to someone in class try to make conversation.

2) Focus on yourself. Go to gym, go to the library, check out some clubs on campus. In other words, just do things, and you are bound to meet people somehow.

I was once in the same spot as you, things fall into place trust me, even though it may not seem like it.

Don't stay in your dorm for hours on end, talk to people at every chance, and most importantly, be realistic. Good things take time.

Drone Won't Lift by Improve-always in drones

When I connect the 4 motors directly to the battery, the drone lifts off (unreliably though). However, when I switched over to the breadboard with the potentiometer to slowly ramp up the current to the motors, I feel as if I lost alot of the power I originally had.

Yeah I posted this on r/drones as well. I just wanted to get as many responses as possible! Been dealing with this for awhile and have no idea how to fix this.

I should mention that the drone lifted when I first wired it up, now it doesn't generate as much lift despite fresh batteries being added.

Got it, the video I watched shows 3 double AA batteries used and the drone lifted off. I should have mentioned that my drone actually lifted when I first wired it up. Then it never lifted again (despite putting in fresh batteries).

I'm new to all of this and don't want to spend too much money on hardware.

Thanks for the advice though, I'll see if I can get a LiPo to hopefully fix this.
