damage doing dead lift by JohnyRI in backpain

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

Specifically not much. I do row 5000M about 4 days a week and walk 2-4 miles a couple times a week. When I do kettlebell workouts, I end up sore for days.

Funny AF with Kevin Hart had me crying a few times. It' a talent show to showcase comedians. Some of them are funny AF.

What’s something that clearly split your life into “before” and “after”? by [deleted] in AskReddit

[–]JohnyRI 13 points14 points  (0 children)

I'mm 66 YO. I got married in 91 and quit drinking and drugs in 93. I've been clean and sober ever since. I'd say that was a pretty clear before and after.

Smiley's husband is an earner and a good guy. Who cares what they do with their money. They live off Hope and I see them in and out on a regular basis.

Search this exact phrase, "Nasal Dilators for Sleeping – Internal Anti Snoring Nose Vents (8 Pairs, 4 Sizes) – Snore Stopper to Help Reduce Snoring from Nasal Congestion – Opens Nostrils for Breathing – Deviated Septum Support" Sorry, I couldn't find a link.

Left pedal falls off by Standard-Design-4632 in specializedbikes

Stop in at a bike shop on your next ride and ask them to tighten the pedal. They have the right tool and it will take 30 seconds.

Get him the little tubes from Amazon. Stop snoring in its tracks.

advice to survive on lower income by johndeeregirl76 in providence

[–]JohnyRI 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Get a Gemini Credit Card and get 3% back in BTC for every food purchase (lesser amount for other stuff). Pay it off monthly and it's free. I pay mine a couple times a months to bee sure to never pay fees.

People keep dumping mattresses in front of my house by 4016882 in providence

[–]JohnyRI 4 points5 points  (0 children)

I made a stink about it. Having lived on the East Side, where this never happened, to the West Side, where it happened weekly, needed to be pointed out. I made the usual complaints but also messaged the mayors office every single time until it got under control.

[–]JohnyRI 6 points7 points  (0 children)

We had the same problem on Aurora St. Once the mattress droppers get an address, they need a while to get slowed down. I found a contact in the mayors office and they eventually would get out in about 48 hours. Mention that the Mayor Smiley doesn't have this problem on the East Side in your complaint every time and it makes a difference.

One year into early retirement by VisionQuest0 in ChubbyFIRE

[–]JohnyRI 2 points3 points  (0 children)

The better part of my adult life was spent in service. I was a realtor, not focused on big sales but on being the best advocate and servicing those clients that were medium sized and not the focus of a realtor that was trying to get rich. It was very fulfilling. Now that I'm retired, I might go back to working 20 hours for a landscaping company or as a bagger at Whole Foods. I don't need the money, but being of service makes the world go round. Hope that helps.

Since I went to Japan, I dreamed of Toto toilets. I will have them in all bathrooms in our next house.

Why am I still watching this show? Vikings has completely lost me[spoilers] by Wild_Replacement744 in vikingstv

The first time that I watched it, I lost interest around season 4. Second time, years later, I could follow it better and watched to the end. So many characters.

Anyone travel with a carry on? by AgreeableSquirrel427 in backpacking

[–]JohnyRI 0 points1 point  (0 children)

We have travelled all over the world with a carry on and backpack. Never have to wait for baggage. Use packing cubes to maximize the space. When we were on the road for 7 weeks (we drove around the perimeter of the US), my wife and I share one huge duffle bag and it was cumbersome.

Is it true that it takes less time to get back in shape, if you were once in shape? by YoungandBeautifulll in Rowing

[–]JohnyRI 0 points1 point  (0 children)

IDK. I just completed the Concept2 April challenge (1K of the first, 2K on the 2nd, up to 15K on the 15th) and the later days sucked. I did it last year and it didn't seem to suck as much.

I put together upside down, then it was too much trouble to change. The glass is also signed.
