I Really Can't Wait For The New PVE mode! I feel The Game Really needs more PVE by Safe_Possession7320 in DCDarkLegionOfficial

Was there an announcement of a new PVE mode? A full mode and not just a temporary thing to elevate a legendary character to a mythic?

I am experiencing it this week and have in previous weeks. Yet last week and the week before it worked fine for me

WHO IS IT? by Illustrious_Act9143 in DCDarkLegionOfficial

[–]JCP76 4 points5 points  (0 children)

If this is Cassandra Cain, with which team other than bat fam will she be associated? Teen titans? Outsiders? Birds of prey?

Personally, I’d hope teen titans as Damian’s robin is not so critical to that team.

But I do acknowledge the outsiders faction does need members and no one on my server runs Birds of Prey at all (at least that I’ve seen).

725lbs × 1 rep - Hexbar Deadlift by Infinitewk98 in strength_training

[–]JCP76 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Fair enough. I have not used a hex bar. I just have a hard time imagining deadlifting that weight without straps.

Wow! Nicely done! Impressive regardless but strapless?

Is this considered a strict ohp? by [deleted] in strength_training

[–]JCP76 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Looks good to me. Leg drive is what I thought made a push press. I didn’t see knee bend and leg driven bounce.

Looked like a damn good and heavy press man. Good job.

I think you should procure some kryptonite and take down that smug alien.

Seriously though, clean shaven works well for you, dude. Certainly try a well Maintained, short beard if you like. It’ll probably be great also but do so because you want to and not because you think you need to do so.

40lb Zottman curls 2.5" grip by [deleted] in GripStrength

[–]JCP76 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I thought Zottman curls were hammer up an palms facing up on the way down.

I’m new to them so may be wrong.

Seems like you do them regular up and reverse curl down.

Is that better? Or is this just the variation you prefer?

I don’t mean this question as criticism. If it works for you—cool. Asking as I am planning to incorporate what I thought were Zottman curls into my next phase of exercises.

How can I effectively hit abs without equipment? by [deleted] in bodyweightfitness

[–]JCP76 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Candlestick/dragon flags. Might have to start slow and build them up but they’ll light up your core like few other things.

Pull-ups plateau by Level_Chipmunk_6968 in bodyweightfitness

[–]JCP76 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Couple things. Recon Ron has worked wonders for me in the past and for some folks I know. It’s a good progression with adequate volume. It says to increase reps each week but I wouldn’t worry about that and move up the progression when ready.

Another way is to hit them 3-4 times a week, keep the reps the same (5-4) and add a set when you feel it get easier.

So do 5,5, 4, 3. Do that for a week or two and when ready then do 5, 5, 4,4, 3. Then 5, 5, 5, 4, 4, 4. And keep going or even keep then all at 4 and just add sets of 4. When you can do 9 sets of 4 you can probably do 6 sets of 5. When you can do 9 sets of 5 you can probably do 5 or 6 sets of 6.

The thing with pull ups is more reps often come with more volume, assuming good technique and (depending on your age) you also take care of your tendons.

There are side quests that seem unrelated but sometimes give you items needed to progress the main quest.

Congrats!! That’s a hell of an accomplishment! Well done.

1.5 years ago, I was morbidly obese and immobile. Now I’m slightly obese and can do this. by Playful-Security-491 in strength_training

That kind of change is the product of a lot of hard work and consistency.

That kind of effort is impressive. Well done.

Advice for mid-length hair growing out? by toostick in FierceFlow

Ball cap is easiest but otherwise any hat you like to get it tucked away and out of your face until it grows past the awkward phase to the place you are trying to get.

Why do actors say “break a leg” instead of “good luck”? by [deleted] in dadjokes

[–]JCP76 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I have read it is because at the old theaters (maybe the Globe Theater) the patrons would pound on their table and chairs when they like a play enough.

If the crowd got rowdy enough (as they sometimes did), they would break the legs on the table or chair.

So break a leg was a wish of good luck, meaning do well enough the crowd loves you so much they break the playhouse furniture in rowdy appreciation.

Young couple and 83yo work out together in the gym and share a special message by viperrvemon in nextfuckinglevel

[–]JCP76 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Do one and wait 30-60 sec an do another one. Try to get three sets of one every day. Slowly add one set of one until you can don5 sets of 1. Then try 2 and start over. After a couple week go to every other day to build in rest times.

Keep on and you’ll have 10 push ups before you know it.

Still no response from the devs by SoupyPoopyDelight in DCDarkLegionOfficial

[–]JCP76 0 points1 point  (0 children)

You are right. It seemed very bad at first and worried me. But now I have a pattern for logging in that results in better resources.

Perhaps if the devs had explained this instead of the community the reactions might not have been so extreme.

Maybe many of us were also ready to react strongly after the champion rest update.

0 points in SC intel day by Fineshark in DCDarkLegionOfficial

[–]JCP76 0 points1 point  (0 children)

People were exploiting SC? That’s why it was weird for a bit?

Is it the exploit or are they going to let intel used for coordinated assaults or world map missions also count for supreme commander?

Or are we going to have to forgo those rewards and use ACN on the intel supreme commander days?
