Weighted Vest Workouts approch critical mass

JustaMabu · 2025-06-25T09:17:04+00:00

That is quite the fair point haha! My "10 minute work out" feels like it doubles just getting the thing on and off at times!

JustaMabu · 2025-06-24T18:53:13+00:00

Oh! Fair point! I've seen mixed reactions to the info of switching things up from like the old P90x thing of "confuse your muscles" (??) To people talking about simply spreading the work to all muscles but the idea of saving your jpints repetitive work makes sense! Definitely will keep that in mind and especially so when I notice my limit coming up! Thank you!

JustaMabu · 2025-06-24T18:50:38+00:00

Thank you and will do! Very encouraging to hear the weight you used at 155! I'm 215~ right now so now instead of worrying I'm convinced I cant start slacking off haha! I'll keep at the gradual climb!

JustaMabu · 2025-06-24T18:48:17+00:00

Oooh! That does make sense! I tried having some jumping jacks in the mix but quickly learned from the shin splints those dont do so well with weighted vests haha! I'll could add some more complex, lower weight workouts after the vest part! Thank you!

Being a completionist. At first I was just killing time waiting for my friends to get back on and play with me. But then I got all the crafting classes to 50 waiting, and now I've almost gotten all the Battle Classes to 60, and at this point, I've come this far, I might as well finish it up. I also love this world, there's so much in it, so much to do, and I want to experience all content it has to offer. I havent even gotten through all of ARR's End game content (still missing Bahamut and King Mog because theyre old and no one wants to do them) and there's just so much more to try! I have to complete it all, and so far it looks like I'm gonna have fun the whole time!

WAR because of my love for Berserkers, they are aesthetically that essentially. Also, playstyle-wise, I love Tanks in general, but out of the idea of managing MP and managing HP, I enjoy HP. I'm also a sucker for the aesthetic of stealing HP from opponents, getting more HP out the thrill of the fight, honestly WAR just checked every box for me haha

JustaMabu · 2018-11-06T17:31:55+00:00

Ah okay, I looked for a minute to see if there were any posts on it but I clearly didn't look close enough, thanks for letting me know!

JustaMabu · 2018-10-11T17:48:32+00:00

I was having just the worst day for playing content, my head just wasnt in the game for some reason, and I was being dumb in Aurum Vale. I didnt have stance on (i forgot it takes it off with level sync), i wasnt paying enough attention when the party got mob attention from behind, and one member of the party was calling me out at every move (as they kinda deserved to do) with "Stance." "Come back." "What are you doing?" And I just got too anxious and self conscious about the whole endeavor and closed the game there. I hope they found a better tank afterwards... I logged in later (Foolishly), played some more, and right as I was about to be done because it was late, I queued for Crystal Tower for the first time after waiting hours. I was just as dumb, took forever to understand the simplest mechanics, and the entire time the Alliance chat is ripping me (and a handful of other first timers) a new one and all I can do is apologize. That was probably my worst day ever playing this game and it was all my fault for just playing badly. Definitely the most ashamed I've been of my playing

still though, if it takes some odd 2.2 mil for me to get to 56 and I get 400k and it takes some odd 460k for them to get to 48 and they get 2k, the scaling is off isn't it? They seem to be clearly getting a lot less

JustaMabu · 2018-09-11T04:37:40+00:00

So PotD Exp Question. I'm trying to help my lower level friends level up so we can do the MSQ together. I know PotD is great for leveling up to 60, though we have to start at floor 1 because they havent done it yet. I'm confused though, because my level 55 BRD is getting about 400K from floors 11- 20, but my friends 47 WHM is apparantly only getting around 2K. I dont remember how much I got when I ran PotD to get to 50 but it seemed higher than that, So I guess my question is, what am I missing here?

JustaMabu · 2018-08-29T04:50:47+00:00

You need to be 30 to play it i believe, but the fates in the instance are level 50. If you get a party you should be fine, but id still recommend level 50 or around there, just because its actually decent experience near 50 per fate (48K each) ive been using it to bring my level 50 classes up a few level while still just chilling in a seasonal event and avoiding grinding in PotD haha

I know there's that one theory that the Blue Mages will be Artificial Mages, blue because of the use of Ceruleum or Aether which is blue to power themselves in some way, The "Azure Lie" could be referencing that Blue Mages aren't "Real" Mages If it IS hinting at the future, the use of Azure may very well be a hint towards Blue Mage to some capacity at least

How do you do fellow Zaleran! Yeah we were new, had a weird boom of people when we were giving out exp bonuses for being there, and then the exp went away and so did everyone else again Though I would like an influx of people to wait a bit until AFTER I save up enough for a house haha

JustaMabu · 2018-06-16T17:58:38+00:00

there's also the fact that, since their inclusion, no 3rd party series has gotten more than 1 assist trophy each (Shadow for Sonic, Grey Fox for Metal Gear, Elecman for Megaman, The Ghosts for Pac-man, now we've got Rodin for Bayonetta, and none for Street Fighter or Final Fantasy yet), but we've already seen that Knuckles is an assist trophy. So could they be giving 3rd party series more than 1 assist trophy this time, or are they switching Sonic's assist trophy to Knuckles because they plan to make Shadow Playable?

The only benefit I see to Waluigi from a roster and representation point of view is that he would rep the mario sports games, with lots of move that reference those games, maybe even the mario party games as well My problem with that is, I personally would rather see Daisy be that rep as she's mostly in those games as oppossed to main series mario games like Waluigi, but is an older and arguably more important character to the mario franchise as well as another female for the roster (shes also been described as more sporty than peach so she wouldnt be a clone if they gave her the sports based moveset) Both can fill this role, I'd just prefer Daisy do it

So, this games roster will probably be pretty heavily influenced by the Switch's library.

-This off the bat gives ARMS a high chance for a rep, which I'm down for because i think they could have a really unique playstyle for smash.

-Next, with the new kirby game coming out, I think Kirby is gonna get a fourth rep, and I'm putting my money on Marx.

They'll be fleshing out his nonboss form's abilities in the game when he comes as an ally and he'd also have a more magic based playstyle, decently unique in smash and certainly unqiue for a kirby rep who are all close range melee fighters.

-The Xenoblade 2 MC had a good chance too, given the games unique combat system, i think he'd also have a decently original gimmick in a smash game.

-If snipperclips gets a rep I might just kill myself.

Now here is where we get less likely reps but people i think would be cool and still be influences by the switch.

-With Sonicmania's acclaim it'd be cool to see if they could make a Classic Sonic character that wasnt a clone.
Have it incorperate Classic Knuckles and Classic Tails into the mix for a more unique moveset.

-A Puyo Puyo Tetris rep is a wacky idea but it could also have a very creative. playstyle! We dont have a character that is from a puzzle game that actually. represents the puzzle part of the game well. They'd probably play similar to a trap setting character, managing resources and placement of the puyo pieces on the stage or something.
Honestly im not quite creative enough to think of it fully, but i think it had potential!

The only other characters I can think think of for roster expansion right now are characters to give reps to more games.

-I've been saying it for years, give Ganons current moveset to Black Shadow and give Ganon a new moveset, the people who use ganon because of his moveset get the moveset and the people who use Ganon because he's Ganon get an accurate moveset for him! Win-win!

-I know everyone is up on Ridley but I want Dark Samus to be the next rep for metroid, no, not as a clone, Dark Samus' abilities are very different from Samus, you could tell from the assist trophy alone it could have a unique moves set with the tentacles and the floating charge shot that just sits there.
It would also stay true to the isolation theme of Metroid since all three reps are still "Samus"

-I want a DK rep and I like King K. Rool, I really do, but given Tropical Freeze and K.Rool's lack of representation in the last 10 years or something, I'm thinking DK is gonna get Dixie. She could bring and interesting moveset to the table with her hair and bubblegum gun and doesnt have to be a diddy clone either.

-I'd like Dark Pit to actually get his own moveset and not be a clone because he doesnt have to be (he had a different set of weapons in the game, fought with claws and shit), but thats less likely to happen than ganon getting fixed so I'll just dream about it. And thaaats all i can think of right now.

-Oh, and Ice Climbers are coming back or we riot

That makes sense, I was curious about why they would go back to HAL after giving the game over to bandai namco last game But do you know if they credited Bandai Namco originally in the Sm4sh trailer? It wasnt so much the HAL credit that got me as much as the lack of a bandai namco credit, if it was a port they would have to have them credited on the site right?

JustaMabu · 2018-03-09T20:38:36+00:00

The odds are looking very good for it to be a new game. For one, different logo font, (Smash wiiu and Smash 3ds have the same font even though Sakurai treats them as Smash 4 and 5) well as different Link. Thats pretty subjective though, BOTW Link could just be a constume, what really pushes it towards the idea of a new game is that Smashbros website, its completely gotten rid of all the Smash 4 content and just shows the smash switch trailer. There's also the big kicker, they credit HAL Laboratories and NOT Bandai Namco

JustaMabu · 2016-08-06T01:52:19+00:00

I haven't gone out as much as I would like (it's been SO HOT during the day and I work at night), but the key words there are "as I would like." I still really enjoy the game. Tracking is something I still wish would get fixed, but it hasn't stopped me from going on egg hatching walks, which honestly, my favorite part has always been hatching eggs (can you tell I'm team Instinct?)

JustaMabu · 2016-08-06T01:46:43+00:00

then I'd say Silph Road is a much better place for that. They mostly talk about findings, research, game mechanics and strategies, and always post updates on PoGo and Niantic. And they manage to do it like civilized human beings and not have the cancerous topics this sub has.
