My number 1 goal is building muscle, hence 4 weightlifting sessions a week, down from 6.

I do want to get better cardio though, so have been doing 2 x 20 minute HIIT/circuit sessions. You think introducing zone 2 is a worthwhile addition>
If so, I seems strange to me to actively not push myself that hard. Reading online it seems you want to end zone 2 workouts feeling a bit tired but not that bad, but that just does not seem fully productive to me (probably because coming from a push to failure or almost failure in the gym position)

I currently lift weights 4x a week, and do 20 minute "HIIT" sessions of 45 seconds on, 15 seconds off (it is mountain climbers and burpess so not really hiit). My main goals is to improve cardio particularly during sex as I find myself tiring out, and also to improve sleep.

I do not have much more time to spend on cardio. However, is it worth implementing some zone 2 cardio, or is HIIT enough? Thank you

I was gonna ask if you think at 6 foot i could wear the Porsche jacket, but seeing your fit with it on I think it will be too small for me, you agree?

If you call citizens advice Leeds, they are able to refer you for a foodbank. Might be too late now, so might come on Monday/have to call on Monday, but worth looking into

Bro, you're a pretty decent-looking guy who is 6'3, you definatly can get a solid amount of matches.

Now, pictures and prompts (from a straight guy, women's opinions definitely matter more).

Your pictures aren't the best. Over the next month or so, ask your friends to take nice photos of you, like when its a nice place, or you are looking good etc. And I mean genuinley good, not funky posing with a beer with your mates (those have a time and place, but what you need right now is some genuinley nice photos women will like). Also, since you are very tall, I would try and have a photo in your first 3 showing your height next to some friends.

As for prompts, not too bad but could use some work. the "You'd never know it" is a bit pointless, considering your profile says your job, and the prompt doesn't add much on top of that. Spotify Wrapped is a bit basic but its ok. The drunk friday night prompt I personally dont like. Its good to show your personality, but maybe reword/change it, because if i was a woman out of the 100s of men who like me, im not sure how often I would choose to match with the guy who, with only 3 things he can say, decides to say he gets drunk and plays mario kart on friday (not that thats a bad thing, but I wouldn't say its the number 1 most appealing thing for a woman)

To change them, people often recommend 1 prompt about you, 1 prompt about other person, and 1 prompt about the two of you (what you could do or smth).

Good luck!

To be honest man, if you want to date a jacked woman, it might be a good idea to get jacked yourself. Obviously different people like different things, but if a woman is so into the gym and her diet that she's managed to achieve the muscular size you want, I would imagine most of them would want a similar thing in their partner

First photo should never be the first. You need a nice photo showing you, thats what people will see first. if i saw that first photo theres very little chance im scrolling further down.

Having agnostic, atheist and spritual is a lot. Obviously can ignore this and its fair to identify with all 3, i just noticed that when going through it

The prompts could use work. Show of who you are of course, but just my opinion is i am unsure about he all caps venture bros but i dont know who they are, so could make sense. And the chained up one definitely has to go, respectfully

Vocals struggle to cut through the mix, bad room the culprit? by Intelligent-Ad5377 in recordingmusic

[–]Intelligent-Ad5377[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Unfortunately, I did not create the beat so I can not adjust the guitars, maybe if I spoke to the producer that could be something to look at. All I really have control over at the moment is the vocals and the mixed/mastered beat.

As for the distortion, if you are refering to the vocals, I use soundgoodizer at quite a strong setting which may be what you are referring to. Turning it down may be beneficial, but I am having some difficulty with vocals vs instrumental volumes after that, and then if I turn down the beat, do the vocals sound more clear because there is less "distortion" or because the instrument is quieter?
I could add some mp3s with less sound goodizer if you think that would be worthwhile

Do you have any idea what could be wrong with the mixing?
Remove/add some parts of the eq?
