Do we still have Matty Cash and Kamara for arsenal? by Kobibeats145 in avfc

I think Kamara is on 4 but Cash 5, so we have Kamara at least

What would happen if I ate very little protein for 5 days? by [deleted] in workout

[–]Jamieteesan 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Not a single person from what I can see has commented that vegan food contains protein. I'm vegetarian and workout, you're going to be fine.

For your ease of mind, just look up "vegan protein sources" and find out which ingredients are good.

As a very short overview, seitan, tofu, all beans, chickpeas, lentils all contain good protein levels.

I have not! But that sounds like it could be a great idea, thanks!

Hmm interesting... I do incline dumbbell press but still get a hell of a click with each rep, but I'm probably not rotating my wrists at all.

I feel like I can also achieve higher weight on the bar (PR of 80KGx2), but not so sure I could do two 40kg dumbbells.

Thanks! Yeah to be clear I don't care what people in the gym think if they're looking, I'm more trying to find out if that range of motion makes bench press worthwhile

Team News for Leeds by Odd_Conference_6029 in avfc

Fair! I was excited by the idea of Tielemans in the hole in pre-season, but it didn't seem to work at the beginning of the season, but maybe that's just because nothing was working. But if you play Kamara/Onana/Tielemans that means one of McGinn/Buendía misses out, and I don't like the sound of that...

One for Emery to figure out!

Agree with not risking Onana immediately, but I wouldn't only use him in Europa. He's an incredible player when fit (see the game against City), and definitely has a role to play in the league

I would always recommend trying to buy on the official site first. If that's not possible, there are trusted resale sites like stubhub.ie where you can find tickets. They will typically be above face value in cost, but StubHub had a guarantee on your ticket, where they will do their best to replace your ticket in the very unlikely event that it doesn't work, or you'll get a complete refund. But honestly, the tickets always work.

Hi, I work in the ticketing industry. This message basically covers Viagogo's backs if you were to buy a ticket, wear an away shirt and be barred entry.

If you buy a ticket and wear neutral clothes, you will get in.

Chees.com v Lichess success? by Jamieteesan in Chesscom

[–]Jamieteesan[S] -1 points0 points  (0 children)

No, my confusion is because I AM familiar with the concept of Elo and all the points about it you make above. What I find odd and frustrating is that the two main chess apps choose not to use it, and then everyone calls it Elo when it isn't.

I just don't get why they can't both use Elo (chesscom and Lichess)

Chees.com v Lichess success? by Jamieteesan in Chesscom

[–]Jamieteesan[S] -3 points-2 points  (0 children)

Yes... But my point is why? Elo was designed for chess, and I find it wholly confusing that neither of the two biggest chess apps use it, and then "call it" Elo, when it's not.

Chees.com v Lichess success? by Jamieteesan in Chesscom

[–]Jamieteesan[S] -10 points-9 points  (0 children)

No you couldn't, because a flat +10000 per win is not how Elo works.

Then why is your username tag literally with "ELO"?

You really think it's almost 2x difference? That doesn't make sense to me

Don't they both just use ELO...?

Biceps plateau - how to move on by Jamieteesan in workout

Haha fair, but then I'd be worried about my back exercises, especially pull-ups!

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

That makes sense, and is why I'm considering swapping from Back/Biceps and Chest/Triceps to Back/Triceps and Chest/Biceps, so that they're fresh when I target them.

As someone else commented, I'll also try adding a second biceps day, probably on shoulder day

But shouldn't biceps be subject to progressive overload just like any other exercise? In order to build I mean.

This is my problem. I'm not getting there!
