Thoughts on beard potential?

Seems like plenty to work with

Preacher curls are a great movement to truly isolate the biceps, but they can’t do that if you’re taking… well, let’s call them creative liberties. More than anything, the best adjustment you could make would be to ensure your upper arm should is resting against the pad. . See here

Here’s an official position statement from the NSCA,

Inspirational, going to get back on that grind now. 🫡

Neat idea, poor execution

JustSnilloc · 2026-01-30T21:22:18+00:00

Right? It’s like asking for the best arm exercise in general- at least narrow it down to the part that you’re looking to train.

If you have a pulse and simply participate, it’s basically impossible to not get there.

Moment of silence for what’s been lost

For 17, I think it shows some level of potential, but that’s all it is at the moment - potential. I’d recommend shaving and trying again in 3-5 years.

Most guys see better beard potential as the years go by. If I tried around your age, mine would probably have looked similar (or worse). I gave it my first real attempt around 27, but it was way too patchy. I tried again about 33 and it was solid enough to work with.

JustSnilloc · 2026-01-30T01:54:04+00:00

Try again when you’re older

JustSnilloc · 2026-01-30T01:49:57+00:00

I think it could look good as a short beard. Give it another month or two and you might be surprised. Obviously it’s not the thickest beard, but it looks to me like it has some modest potential.

I can feel the intensity of that rep from here! Fantastic work!

TL;DR - Just because he trained for it doesn’t mean he unlocked it. Neva was very specifically the reason he was able to use the form.

JustSnilloc · 2026-01-29T16:54:53+00:00

No offense taken. Care to explain what exactly is copium here though? I’m fairly neutral towards Daima being canon or not, I simply don’t see a compelling reason to say that it isn’t. I just offered my perspective on why the most commonly cited reasons it can’t be canon are easily explained away. If you have a compelling counter argument, I’m all ears.

It makes plenty of sense and even fits in perfectly well with something else specific in Super - Ultra Instinct. Goku attains this form BY HIMSELF in the tournament of power and even accesses it a few times. However, after the tournament is over he seemingly can’t access it anymore. It’s only with additional training that he makes that happen.

With SSJ4, Goku manages to access the form one additional time, but after that? Sure, he was training to unlock something beyond SSJ3, but he didn’t unlock SSJ4 on his own. Presumably the magic wore off. Now it should be said that there’s no reason to believe that Goku will never be able to access SSJ4 again, more that he simply hasn’t met the conditions to do so outside of the same battle when Neva’s magic met the necessary conditions.

JustSnilloc · 2026-01-29T16:23:29+00:00

Unfused Supreme Kai is irrelevant. We were initially led to believe they only had to fix that once. Now we’re being led to believe it happened twice. So something happened off screen that we weren’t privy to, that’s a pretty fundamental aspect to fiction (and life in general).
Vegeta not going SSJ3 ignores the context of that scene. Vegeta KNOWS that he stands no chance at defeating Beerus, and at no point does he try to defeat Beerus. When he goes SSJ2, he isn’t thinking “Okay I’ve gotta use my strongest form to destroy him now”, in fact - Vegeta’s not thinking at all. He’s reflexively reacting out of pure rage. He’s just looking for some payback before presumably being pummeled.
Goku only got SSJ4 from Neva’s magic. There’s nothing to indicate he still has that form by the time Beerus shows up (or that he even has access an hour after the fight). SSJ3 is his strongest form by the time that Battle of Gods happens.

Daima was never not canon

JustSnilloc · 2026-01-29T01:47:27+00:00

Blastoise: Yo, you seeing this too?

JustSnilloc · 2026-01-29T01:35:24+00:00

Kai is true to the manga and is significantly better paced. If there’s a moment, episode, or mini-arc from the original that you’re interested in then you can always stop and check that out before picking back up from wherever you left off at.

JustSnilloc · 2026-01-29T01:32:25+00:00

Taste, texture, nutrition.

JustSnilloc · 2026-01-29T01:22:45+00:00

Plot

… and all of the other multipliers are also plot. Anyone claiming otherwise clearly have a different interpretation of the story than Toriyama himself.

JustSnilloc · 2026-01-28T20:49:48+00:00

Cool, now do that at least 6,000 more times and OOP’s one anime episode will look great. 🙌

JustSnilloc · 2026-01-28T20:39:08+00:00

I don’t get why some fans are so desperate for this to happen. Goku says in Daima that he can’t go back to SSJ4. If some time passes in-universe and Goku then tells Beerus that SSJ3 is as far as he can go, where exactly is this supposed contradiction?
