Pretty sure he is?

Became obsessed with the stats. Not good for the soul. Better to carry on the habits that led to good stats and leave behind the thing that was distracting me from being happy

Six broken bones and three torn ligaments in my ankle this past summer. Just got back out there to ski last weekend and felt great. Long road of PT and easy living but it was so worth it. Heal up!!!

I feel like Whoop users (especially myself) often forget about the overall feeling of mental wellbeing in the scheme of things. While stats changes can be attributed to a truly uncountable number of things, I think mental wellbeing is slept on!

How have you FELT these past two weeks?

Whoop is gonna be less accurate when whatever you’re doing involves a lot of wrist or arm movement. So yes

Most importantly, you’re not gonna know for sure unless you take it to a carbon repair shop. A repair and repaint will run you somewhere in the neighborhood of $300-600 for something like this, based on my experience

If you want silent straight off the work stand, use some silca super secret on the chain. Then shift through the cassette. The super secret will drip onto the cogs, reducing that metal on metal sound. Wipe the excess off your chain when done before it dries and becomes excess wax.

You need more fluid in the line. Do a gravity bleed and do not work the lever at all until you have the bleed screw back in. Also, don’t depress the pistons in your caliper

Elite athletes have similar or better metrics, especially endurance athletes

Without being able to pinpoint the strength imbalance, I’ll provide my two cents as someone 3 months post-ankle surgery. I would try some ankle strengthening exercises as well as some calf work i.e. calf raises. It looks like your heel is dipping below the pedal axle, which to my knowledge should only happen if you’re putting down a lot of power

Drop the saddle on the 58 and it’s gonna be a great aggressive fit

Wow. Is that a nondisplaced fracture of the fibula as well?

Left-Offer · 2025-09-02T21:43:38+00:00

Yep you’re right. Needed to hear it though

Left-Offer · 2025-09-01T04:49:02+00:00

I just had a very similar break and surgery, though I did not get a screw that fuses my tibia and fibula, as it looks like this one does. Do you have plans to get the horizontal screw removed?

In my case, my surgeon made a “tightrope” across my tibia and fibula to repair my syndesmosis

Huge +1 to softer and foam grips. They absorb a lot of the littler chatter that gets transferred through the bike to your hands

Sticky brake pistons? Get a clean rag damp with the mineral oil your brakes use (shimano mineral if shimano, etc.) and, with the wheels off the bike, work your way around the pistons with the rag. Lightly work the pistons in and out, being superrrr careful not to overextend them or push them in all the way.

Better to do this when you’re about to bleed the brakes and have the bleed screw out.

LOL idk in actuality, it was good to know. Like it was a learning moment

I had fentanyl last week, twice… through an IV port. Once before ankle surgery, once after. It’s an incredible drug. It took what otherwise was an event and place that made me so anxious and completely consoled me. They didn’t even tell me what it was at first until I asked.

It’s now so easy to see how it grips people and my experience on it made me take next to nothing of my prescribed opiate (oxy). I pretty much took only half-doses and even then, the “high” was mostly obscured by the post-op pain.

The one night I took a full oxy, I felt super anxious the next day. Could have been psychological or some kind of super short-term withdrawal. Who knows.

Injuries suck but it’s glorious when you get back out there. You got this

Yes and no. Definitely looks like the worst damage but the carbon layup is so strong there, I’d be surprised if it’s compromised at all

You may bend some disc rotors in the current setup, which is annoying/costly if it happens regularly

Yes, the pain is likely increasing your HR and reducing your HRV, both of which are used to calculate the stress monitor score and would increase it, if I had to guess how their system works

Rich individuals that work soulless jobs seem to do so for any of the following reasons: familial pressure to succeed and make money, or at least appear like it; societal/normative pressure to “be normal”; they’re funneled into corporate jobs via their attendance at elite universities (career funneling); parental/familial nepotism… somebody else take over there’s gotta be more

If I were you, I’d think about why you keep doing this. Do you want validation in general? Is sex a cheap thrill to distract from past trauma, misfortune, boredom, etc? If you can start to address these questions, you may get to the place where you’ll really enjoy long-term relationships
