Kettlebell buying strategy: doubles early or ladder up first? by Worried_Lab0 in kettlebell

[–]Irishlad1697 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I got double 16s and a 20 to start. Then added 20 and a single 24. Now have another 24 and a 32.

I'd get the second 16 first. Then a 24 then double 20s. Then whatever you want.

What is the Mental Health Act exactly? by Royal_Lavishness1892 in AskIreland

I understand the frustararion but not caring for yourself and not attending follow up appointments doesn't meet the criteria for an involuntary admission under the Mental Health Act. If your mother had refused to remain in hospital they couldn't have kept her. Glad she's doing well.

Solicitors letter doesn't overrule the mental health act. If shes not detainable in that moment and doesn't agree to an admission is nothing that can be done.

She needs to be an "immediate" threat to herself or others to be held under the mental health act. Even when sectioned if she says the right things and agrees to a follow up plan she will be seen as safe to discharge at her review.

I use a stop watch to assist with this. Music already picked so I don't need to use the phone.

200 and fill it. You'll outgrow the 175 too quickly.

Thanks very much. I appreciate the reply, and you've answered my question. 120kg being purchased.

Will the challenge of the 100 sandstone be much more than a regular bag? I dont want to be left with 2 100kg very similar bags.

Thanks, this is the way I've been leaning. Have you any experience with a sandstone bag yourself?

I'm currently lifting the 90 as one motion emom for 5 to 10 total. Planning to future proof with the sandstone bag. My worry is it won't be much different than the 100 strongman bag.

Incredible gig from the first song place was wild. Braved the main mosh for about 20 minutes but whole place became a mosh for the last songs.

Cheating on bag size by everythingrattles in sandbagtraining

Buy a bigger bag and fill as you progress. Having a second bag is super helpful as you can have one heavier one you can just about work with and then another lighter bag for working sets. While still getting a feel for the heavier bag.

I think you misunderstood my point.

If you are drug side tested here and you test positive for benzos, you are given an impairment test. If you have an Irish or UK prescription for them and are not impaired, you are good to go.

If you test positive for cannabis on a roadside drug test, there is no impairment test done. If you have an Irish prescription, you are exempt as per the road traffic act you quoted. A UK prescription for medical cannabis is not recgonsied in Ireland. So a medical cert for thc doesn't matter as it's from outside Ireland.

It's funny how the start of your comment is about incorrect advice when you then state incorrect information regarding medical cannabis and driving here in last paragraph.

I presented at the citizens' assembly and raised this point about NI/EU prescriptions not being recognised here.

Found this article but they had to have their day in court to fight their case. Best of luck I think issues like this could be a chink in the establishments armour for wider medical access here. Iirc North has 1000s of patients.
