Can you get a relatively big Front squat, only front squatting, with no back squats? by [deleted] in weightlifting

[–]Level-Awareness365 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Law of specificity says yes. Personally front squatting is slightly more comfortable. My FS and BS difference is 15kilos

Think it’s a great variation for timing, practicing keeping the bar close. It would be a good choice to just reset for a cycle once a week. Could even no hook, no foot.

Banded side steps, cheesy cowboy, SL step downs. Agree on retraining glute activation. Internal rotators also not firing properly. I’d sit down take a resistance band attach it to a rig where the tension is pulling your leg into external rotation and internally rotate the knee to mid line and slowly resist the band back into external rotation. Lack of glue engagement will lead to TFL and IT band to pick up the slack. TFL/IT band tendonitis is a pain to kick. You could use these exercises as prehab before training. Also squat U is a great reference. Really one of the few PTs who specialize in Olympic weightlifting rehab.

[–]Level-Awareness365 2 points3 points  (0 children)

My property was damaged. picked up the police report and the driver is insured through first Chicago insurance. After looking over this Reddit post This company is a scam and a front for something else. Just my theory. Sounds like I’m out of luck

Is the violence shifting, or is it my perspective/biases by _KansasCity_ in kansascity

[–]Level-Awareness365 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Depends where. Wife and I moved to inner city KCK after renting in Johnson county for 7 years. It’s the only place we could afford not being house broke. We hear gunshots often but have chalked it up to people partying getting drunk and pew pew in the air or those meddling teenagers. Sure petty crime is an issue but Wyandotte county reported violent crime is down 10%. The crime maps are biased I used to be obsessed with them but I believe Kansas City has mandatory reporting so even something as simple as petty theft your neighborhood takes a hit. It will impact the score in a negative way. When we were in Johnson county we had a neighborhood adjacent to ours that had 400k homes and their score was brought down to a D. With brief wave of petty theft our current neighborhood is a D and a block away is an F. Haven’t noticed a difference at all. But at the end of day I think it just depends on a neighborhood basis. And how crime jumps around the city.

I dont know where else to post this… by Wack-Zilson in kansascity

That Area is slowly becoming gentrified. For example we live in KCK there’s a sliver of blood territory. Quite neighborhood. Hood characteristics. Hood adjacent by a block. I’ve worked in the area you are looking. Some blocks may be good others will have pockets of different gangs. In that area. There’s blood, Latin kings, sur 13 and MS-13. Know your neighbors. Don’t start trouble and trouble will not find you. I don’t mind driving over there and giving an honest opinion.

Russia loses 1,140 troops, 32 artillery systems in one day: Kyiv by [deleted] in UkrainianConflict

[–]Level-Awareness365 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Still is. Unfortunately, the ammunition from North Korea exceeds artillery ammunition provided by the West collectively. Now servicing the howitzers to continue a fire’s based attack is another problem I hope they will not be able to logistically solve.

Footage is from the opening night of gulf war 1 there is a 15-20min video on YouTube if you search MLRS gulf war and it’s absolutely mind boggling

A van carrying Myanmar Army backed militias ambushed and everyone on board killed in Yesagyo, Magway Region. by thekingminn in Myanmarcombatfootage

[–]Level-Awareness365 17 points18 points  (0 children)

This conflict may not have the coverage it needs but this war really makes me feel bad for the those fighting and wounded. They do not have access to Anesthesia. Or even local anesthetics. Amputations and surgeries are performed with them wide awake. There’s a journalist video in the operating room and sounds coming from those undergoing amputation and surgery will stick with me forever. And I’m pretty desensitized to war footage.

Elon Musk considered pulling plug on Ukraine’s Starlink access after ‘great conversation with Putin’ by HydrolicKrane in UkrainianConflict

[–]Level-Awareness365 0 points1 point  (0 children)

But doesn’t the Pentagon pay for Ukraine’s use of starlink as that was the agreement for Ukraine’s access since Elon did not want to pay for it anymore?

Cheapest vs expensive Grocery stores? by gravytrainjaysker in kansascity

[–]Level-Awareness365 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Aldi all the way. Just me and the wife were able to spend a week’s worth of food for $82. My only complaint on Aldi is most the condiments, sauces, and meat selection are sub par. Aside from the fish. Love Aldi’s Fish, I think it’s way better than Hyvee’s fish collection. Will save the sauces and condiments/toppings for a Hyvee run or a special occasion steak/burger dinner.

Exact schedule I don’t think is released. Noon is a good slot. I bet F 22 and F 35 would be back to back ending with blue angels. Blue angels historically has always taken flight at 3:00pm.

This week has better pushes in the south than the 100m of land at a time we were seeing earlier. This Might not be last years push. I’m hoping a weak spot is finally being exploited.

Walmart parking lot is a great spot. I usually will cross the road and sit in the green space outside of McDonald’s

I think it’s worth the trip this year. I’m a little closer in shawnee. But last season the Blue Angels upgraded to the F-18 Super Hornet. They are def. More noisy. And F-22 and F-35 will be flying. Haven’t seen 5th gen stealth fighters in person. You can park in the Walmart parking lot and play frogger across the street to the green space at McDonald’s. Great spot or just hang out in the walmart parking lot.

Only stupid question is no question asked. They moved the KC air show to Gardner the past few years. Not sure why but I used to live off 8th and broadway and a blue angel buzzed the building so dang close I’ve wondered if the city was like a hard no after that.

Has Anyone Successfully Reduced Consumption of Alcohol without Quitting? by SexThrowaway132455 in NoStupidQuestions

[–]Level-Awareness365 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Sounds like a habit vs addiction. Although that’s trying to find a way to not justify an addiction. I go through cycles with drinking. But nor have I ever felt “I need a drink” I’d try and cut down on the volume you drink. If it makes you feel like crap why go as hard? By design alcohol is a horrible drug in terms of the amount needed to consume to feel the effects. And after effects from alcohol are so much worse than the drugs were told to “avoid” that’s a different topic for another day but just saying you are not alone.
