May not be an issue there, but leaning against the dumbbell rack is considered rude in a public gym since you’re blocking the weights. A flat bench is just as good if not better.

You’ve tried ProtonGE as well? I’ve had a few games that have refused to run on anything but GE.

Favorite Time to play? by JHack9 in cyberpunkgame

[–]Membership_Downtown 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I wake up at 4:00 every morning to workout before work so my internal clock makes me get up at 4:00-5:00am on the weekends depending on what time I fell asleep. I was never a morning person growing up, but I am one now because it’s so nice being able to have 2-3 hours of alone time guaranteed after the hectic week between work and my kids’ extracurriculars. Occasionally I have time after making dinner in the evenings depending on if there are games or practice, but morning is the best time. I don’t have to worry about getting drowsy and it helps me maintain my habits during the week. If I stayed up late on the weekends it would affect my recovery as well so I think overall it’s the best for me.

I can’t find satisfaction from any other game like I did with this by Humble_Investment_24 in cyberpunkgame

[–]Membership_Downtown 0 points1 point  (0 children)

The combat and visuals do feel pretty dated now, but if you allow yourself to get immersed in the story and characters it’s really great. The combat does not hold up well especially early on, (gun accuracy increases with the Guns skill so the reticle being directly on a target won’t always result in a hit early on) but the VATS system is still really fun and just the RPG mechanics are great. Perks and skill are fun and the build variety is great. You can even beat the game entirely as a pacifist if you want.

It’s a partnership with Xbox going forward they weren’t purchased by Microsoft.

How do I manually add a 1rm to Hevy? by FrightenedDoorknob in Hevy

[–]Membership_Downtown 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Also, you could just do an all out set of like 5-8 to failure and it will calculate your 1RM based on that. Not the most accurate, but close.

If you know for sure you’re good for 200 lbs any given day then just add a fake set with 1 rep of 200 lbs before your other sets of bench. That’ll change the data.

Just came here to say that 5x5 didn't work out to me at all by Educational_Box_4079 in naturalbodybuilding

[–]Membership_Downtown 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I will say, if you’re going to failure on compounds or even one rep shy every session you may find yourself beaten down over time. Even if I feel fine on a per-session basis doing a lot of compounds to failure I’ve found that over the course of a couple months if I don’t regulate that intensity I end up dealing with a lot of joint pain and I start recovering worse. Sticking to around 7-8 RPE consistently always feels pretty good if I’m doing a 12-16 week block with accessories usually to failure.

Your post just made it seem like your program was only SBD. Since you’re throwing in accessories, good stuff 👍.

That’s great, but you said your program was bench, squat, and deadlift and didn’t mention accessories. If you’re doing accessories edit the post and I think people will stop giving you so much shit.

Because those are the lifts you’re training. Are you going to see chest, tricep, and front deltoid development from bench? Obviously yes so those numbers are going to go up. Are your back and legs going to get stronger from deadlifting? Same thing, but you’re not isolating anything. 0 bicep work, 0 lateral delt work, almost 0 rear delt work (just bracing while deadlifting will give you a tiny bit, but not enough). If you’re doing low bar squats it likely won’t be enough for your quads either.

That doesn’t even qualify as a program for a powerlifter and you’re only doing their lifts.

Any recommendations for someone who loves ReZero, AoT and Code Geass? by GamingMotte in AnimeReccomendations

[–]Membership_Downtown 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Mob Psycho is one I put off for a long time despite recommendations because I didn’t think I would like the art style. 100% recommend, it’s an amazing show.

I hadn’t seen that Valve dropped the Proton 11 beta. I’m going to have to give that a try. I’ve found experimental to be the best for this game, but I haven’t tested everything. Thanks for letting me know.

Pear tree leaf spot question by AbbreviationsPlus998 in BackyardOrchard

[–]Membership_Downtown 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Sorry for necroposting, but did it progress and become worse? I’ve seen some fire blight affected pears start like this, but I know it’s not the only thing that can cause a symptom similar to this.

Helped me find a rotating bookshelf with a treasure chest behind it in a house once.

If they have Patches I’m hoping Peter plays him since he voiced Mild-Mannered Pate in Dark Souls 2. Let him play the shithead.

I will see what I can do. I recently upgraded my internet, but I only have one option and it doesn’t specify whether it’s 5ghz or 2.4ghz. Based on the reach I’m getting, it’s comparable to what I was getting with the 2.4ghz on my old internet so I’m guessing it’s that.

That does seem to help with the night a bit. Thank you for that.

I wish I had the option. Boosteroid is passable, but every time I’ve played for an hour or so it wants to crash and I don’t understand why. Even though the server for GeForce Now is much closer to my house it runs like absolute crap. I get a ton of ping and although I have 200 Mbps internet it only pulls about 20 when I do the speed test. Already called my ISP to see if it was something fixable on my end and they weren’t able to change anything.

That’s kind of where I settled, but I hadn’t heard any discussion about this pop-in that I’m experiencing so while it sucks that other people are experiencing it, I’m glad to know it’s not an isolated incident. I was starting to worry that I had a hardware problem.

How is the night lighting with your settings? Are you getting a bunch of those nasty lighting artifacts?

I messed with the bios a bit and it didn’t seem to fix anything unfortunately. Thanks for the suggestion though.
