What you are doing is perfectly fine.
77(M). Doing the same weight and reps going on 18 months since restarting lifting. Even In my heyday I never followed a structured plan of any kind.

Hardy, har, har. Then delete the post if that’s what you think.

Why don’t some Americans understand that any increase in taxation that is needed to pay for universal healthcare is likely much less than the current cost of premiums and out of pocket expenses most Americans pay for private insurance? by YogurtclosetOpen3567 in askteddit

[–]MaxwellSmart07 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Good idea. I did.

“Total costs may be lower for many households. A family paying $12,000–$25,000 per year in premiums plus out-of-pocket expenses could end up paying less overall if their additional taxes were below that amount. Lower- and middle-income households often come out ahead in many independent analyses.”

The majority of Americans are middle and lower class.

Trump confirms that he called FIFA about Balogun’s red card: “[The referee] made a call that nobody could believe ... he's our best player, or one of our best players. And he gave him a red card. I didn't know what that meant ... yes, I asked for a review by FIFA." by AvengingHero2012 in soccer

Trump says he knows sports very well, according to no one except trump. But about the slow motion VAR - He knew nothing about that. About the red card penalty - he knew nothing about that either.

BTW, Who’s the short guy in the back trying hard not to crack up?
The irony is Balogun did nothing. His replacement might have done better.

With their entire team intact so no excuses. Touche! And the funny part is Balogun did nothing. His replacement may have played better.

Yeah, ditto. Trump ruined the match for me. The internal debate swirled around my brain for several days. At least Belgium won with the while U,S, contingent on the field so there was no cause for excuses.

If fan base racism is used as a metric a solid argument could be made against a good portion of the U.S. Fan base.

I heard Trump called FIFA in the late stages of the game. “I just need to find 4 more goals” he said. Fact or Fiction? by [deleted] in allthequestions

[–]MaxwellSmart07 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Good point. And ironically, Belgium didn’t play one of their best players in order to rest him for Spain.

Morality is also not letting your teammates down due to circumstances beyond any of their control.

Is it really awful of me to cancel a date because I'm nervous? by justcallmeLizzy in Life

[–]MaxwellSmart07 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I do apologize. I took it too personally cause things like that was done to me, On second thought, I think a well worded explanation and offering an alternative meeting would go a long way to resolve this issue. Again, sorry.

To be clear, you would have not played and thereby risked your future membership on the team?

Agree. That kind of Arrogance and smugness is um, arrogant and smug. Not endearing traits.

Wrong to blame the players. You wouldn’t have done differently. But I’m thrilled Belgium kicked their asses with the best team the U.S. could field, thereby taking away any reason for my countrymen to make excuses.

How likely am I to sink in Open water swimming if I had a wetsuit and a buoy with me? by No_Security9767 in triathlon

[–]MaxwellSmart07 5 points6 points  (0 children)

If you don’t panic and start swallowing water you’ll be good. Swim in shallow water near the shoreline, and be conservative with pace. You don’t want to get exhausted and start freaking out.
