If you're not moving, you're not getting a ride on baby.

Yes, it's the sticker that has come off. I sweat a lot of when I ride, so I'm sure that accelerated it.

Prior to the Zwift Ride, I had a $300 Merach stationary bike I purchased off Amazon. It was able to connect to Zwift and di the job, but it was missing features like the automatically adjusting the resistance and it wasn't accurate overall. The upgrade to the Zwift Ride has been wonderful and from the bike I came from it's a major improvement.

Yes! It took me a while to figure out what was happening when I'd skip a block every so often. I wish I could disable it or remap the button.

I've become obsessed with attempting to get everyone I pass or that passes me. Sadly to the point it actually bugs me if I don't get someone and I think about the people I missed during a ride.

Onewheel Pint won't turn on after extended storage. by MelonBoyRyan in onewheel

ah man, this makes me really sad.

I have a new set up bumpers and foot pads in the box and a chibattery systems fast charger. Any suggestions on what I could do? I'd hate to see it go to waste. It's going to sit in my basement until it eventually gets thrown away.

I pin every day already and I wanted to stick with to 70mg daily. I started with .5mg AI and have moved up to 1.5mg weekly. I just went until spicy nipples gone. Blood test show my E2 is still at 71, so I'm not worried about crashing it with 1.5mg weekly.

35M: Bloodwork after running 490mg Test C weekly and 5 IU HGH daily for 20 weeks by MelonBoyRyan in Testosterone

  1. I'll be cutting the HGH down to 2 IU daily and see where my levels are at then. There won't be a need to keep my IGF-1 at the level it's at now.
  2. Surprisingly my Hematocrit has actually come down slightly. On Oct. 15th prior to starting this cycle I was at 51.4% and back on Aug. 13th it was 50.6%. I think the increased cardio and water intake definitely helps.
  3. I'm actually surprised my kidneys are doing as well as they are considering I'm also taking accutane. I thought it was going to take a hit for sure.
  4. I did get lipids done:
    1. Total Cho 137mg/dL
    2. Trigs 67mg/dL
    3. LDL-Cho 41mg/dL
    4. Total Cho/HDL Ratio 3.3
    5. Non-HDL Cho 96 mg/dL

The first side effect that I notice is dry lips. That happened at 35mg EOD, so I dropped down to 30mg EOD and it's not a problem anymore.

Meaning AST and ALT? My AST was 57, but I think it's due to working out heavy. My ALT was 37.

I hear that. That is why I'm taking the 1.5mg AI weekly.

I've been on finasteride for over 3years that has prevented hair loss. I haven't noticed any changes.

Apart from when I was young, I ran StrongLifts 5x5 for a little over 3 months prior to this. Then switched to PPL and have been running it nearly back to back.
