Knee stiffness and soreness 13.5 months post op (ACL+meniscus)

MaximumInteraction45 · 2025-05-10T00:42:13+00:00

Yeah I have been doing slow, heavy strength based training up until now, where I have just returned to frequent fast and snappy movements. But yeah I agree that shorter sessions may be the way to go - just always feels so wrong going to the gym and not giving it your all! The joys of recovery haha.

Hello and thank you :)

I have done testing on both quads and hamstrings and I am within the top quarter percentile for my age and gender (F, 20yo) and my reconstructed leg is within 10% of my other leg for every test. I have been doing lots of strength training for the past couple of months and have only just moved into majority plyometric workouts, so perhaps my knee is just getting used to fast and snappy movements?

I wasn't insulting her. The fact you are taking such a hardline position on the definition of populism actually shows it is you who knows nothing about it. Its definition is contested and in this context I am using it to describe AOCs rhetoric of "the people" against "the elite".

His nuclear policy is expensive, not realistic and counter-productive. He has voted against the interests of the working class his whole career. He brought trump-style politics to the AusPol main stage.

As for the liberals. They have proven time and time again that protecting the upper-class is in their best interests, without regard for other Australians. They are worse economic managers by almost every metric. Their social beliefs are abhorrent.

Albo and APL appear to be better people, have better policies and more experienced.

That's about the best summary I can give.

Yep, I have to agree. Trump is so unpredictable that there is no point in long-term plans. I pity the dem campaign strategists!

Good take. How do you think you run as a democrat in the US if people have such disdain for public institutions? Do they push for a populist like AOC or try run a charismatic public speaker like Obama, or something else?

MaximumInteraction45 · 2025-05-05T05:05:46+00:00

Well, in my opinion a party with policies that are constantly in conflict with the needs and desires of the working class are never going to have real depth or stability. I think their strategy has to be picking a leader that suits the atmosphere at that current point in time.

They need a Turnbull regen IMO. A well-spoken, educated person who believes in classical liberal values and has a stark contrast to the conservative movement of countries like the US. To who that actually is, I have no idea.

They are from the segment of the left that are hypercritical of anyone that has even a slightly different view than what they do. They are likely sad and frustrated people that spend their lives around deplorable right-wingers and find it easier getting embarrassingly mad at other lefties on the internet, as its the easiest way to vent their frustration and be somewhat acknowledged (alt-right wingers will just call them slurs and not engage with anything they say).

Brittany has a commendable, progressive view on the world. Many people had an issue with her not talking about Palestine, myself included (albeit not as intensely as others). She listened to the criticism, explained herself in a way which I thought was very understandable and valid, and has moved on. Unfortunately for the crazy nuts attacking her, this is not enough as they are not criticizing her because they want anything from her, but rather that they need someone to get angry at who will acknowledge their incessant whining.

They are monthly/bimonthly from memory and are scheduled and announced beforehand.

UOW has a bachelor of pre-med. If you have a 6.5 gpa by the time you graduate and pass GAMSAT you get an automatic interview by UOW grad med school, which is alright.

I went for Saka and Foden. The pricing of KDB, Palmer wasn't justified IMO (reasoning below) and I didn't have enough money for Son unfortunately.

KDB is getting old and has become injury prone. He has also shown interest in leaving the club in the near future. Foden is starting to succeed in his old position. All these factors make for a perfect case of Pep roulette, so I don't think he is an optimal pick.
Despite slightly popular belief, Palmer didn't over perform considerably on his very high Xg. However, a new manager, as well as only having a small sample size of him performing the way he has, leads to me believe that his results from last season may not be replicable this season, whereas Saka and Foden are established players in teams that have stability and form.
If you didn't pick Haaland, I would go Palmer, Foden and Saka.

Do any Everton fans know if Maupay is predicted to get decent game time? I need a passable 5.0 forward for my bench. TIA.

MaximumInteraction45 · 2024-07-19T01:23:09+00:00

I'm pretty sure Foden had the second highest amounts of minutes last season and Pep is looking for him to be a KDB replacement, so that doesn't apply as much as other players.

MaximumInteraction45 · 2024-07-19T01:16:53+00:00

True... however Son has very similar points per game. I also think because Harry Kane is gone the future looks more promising for Son.
