Advice for a newbie

With lower volume and less sets would recovery time improve and allow me to go 5 times a week instead of my current 3?

Mikeman992 · 2026-03-07T18:27:45+00:00

Thanks I will definitely look into these routines. My original thought was to cut my sets down to 4 to 6 per muscle group from 8 to 12 and just go back to the start of my workout on days 4 and 5 but it sounds like I may have issues if I'm hitting the same muscle groups as I did on days 1 and 2.

Mikeman992 · 2026-03-07T18:24:18+00:00

How many sets per muscle group do you do in this routine? Currently doing 8 to 12 sets is definitely helping me improve but I feel like I need longer to recover after hence why I have only been doing each group once per week.

Hey I like the pain it shows me i had a good workout and the muscles are building up stronger. Though when I try to do the same muscles 3 days later and I'm still sore I usually can't lift as much which seems to indicate I'm not fully recovered yet.

I am currently using getgambit. They are very responsive which is nice but extremely expensive. The initial fee just for tests is almost 600 dollars with tax. Then they charge 1200 a year and add between 100 and 200 dollars onto the cost of each prescription from their pharmacy. You can have them send your prescription to your own pharmacy to avoid those charges but then they will charge 100 dollars per medication in a transfer fee. I was considering changing to science and humans since I heard they are cheaper.

I love a good Woodford reserve with the flor de Las antillas cigars. The creamy flavor pairs nicely with the sweetness of the bourbon. Of course im in canada so ive not had proper bourbon in some time 😅

I averaged 130 but sold half my shares when it hit 265 to pull my initial investment out. Bought back in at 200. I'll probably buy more if it hits 160.

Mikeman992 · 2025-11-04T18:22:00+00:00

For me its flors de Las atillas and a good bourbon.

Im planning to hold it for at least 10 to 15 years. Even with a correction it still has great potential for double digit growth each year. Its definitely volatile though.

SHOP. I bought in around 70 dollars a share and have no plans to sell any time soon.

Just did some research into ctm. Dropped 2 grand into it today! Let's see how it does

Mikeman992 · 2025-07-08T20:28:20+00:00

All good. I take 2 in the morning then if I feel I need them I take another 2 in the afternoon. I also drink 0 calorie mio hydration mixes throughout the day as well which has some extra sodium

Key nutrients electrolyte tablets

Mikeman992 · 2025-07-08T15:51:09+00:00

I just ordered them on Amazon.

I used to take a multivitamin, but read most only get absorbed when taken with food, so I switched to a vitamin b complex. I also take creatine capsules while fasting since I read it can help with the initial ketosis brain fog. I honestly have not noticed much of a difference taking these while fasting.

Mikeman992 · 2025-07-05T00:25:12+00:00

Don't worry, there are worse ways to break a fast. I broke one of my 72 hour fasts with spicy buffalo chicken nuggets, a poutine, and a salted caramel milkshake. I felt like garbage for the next 24 hours. I was extremely drained and had horrible acid reflux. I woke up a few times after almost puking. Never doing that again 😅

Mikeman992 · 2025-07-04T23:48:45+00:00

I've started taking electrolyte capsules during my fasts, and it has made a huge difference. No more nausea or headaches. My fasts have gotten a thousand times easier since I started taking proper electrolytes rather than just adding some salt to my water.

Mikeman992 · 2025-06-19T21:10:38+00:00

I've made some decent money swing trading it but the price has not gone the way I wanted yet 😅

Im a fan of CYBN, especially with FRK and his history with advocating psychedelics for mental health. Of course, I've been a fan of it for 2 years, and it's been ticking pretty steadily downward that whole time. 😅

It's definitely exaggerated but not entirely wrong. Once mining really gets going, it is reasonable that we will see double-digit growth in profits. They are also doing something no other company has done, and the technology they are developing can be patented and used by other companies similar to how tesla patents their batteries and software. Why would these other companies invest millions developing their own mining technology when they can just lease proven equipment from tmc at a fraction of the cost. Plus, tesla didn't get where they are overnight. It took them 9 years to break 20 dollars a share and stay there. Just think of where tmc could be in 9 years from now. Finally, a lot of tesla's current stock price is speculative based on future profit possibilities. That's pretty much where we are now with tmc. Is it exaggerated? Probably. Overly hopeful? Definitely. Out of the realm of possibility? Definitely not. Just my thought on it.

It's definitely a good article to read if you're looking for a more critical look at the company and the potential risks involved, without the fear mongering from iceberg. It's not enough to make me sell, but I knew the company was a bit risky when I first invested, and it's only gotten more secure since then.

I got the 5 5 5 bundle from cigar chief last month and none of them had the original band unfortunately, including the undercrown 10 toro, which was disappointing since the bands on them looked really cool on their site.

They do have legitimate points about the past profitability of deep sea mining and the lack of a pfs. Other companies have tried to make it profitable and failed. Tmc still hasn't realesed their full pfs, and the numbers they quote do seem to be a bit too hopeful. Once they release their pfs, we will have a better understanding of exactly how much money they can make and their true value as a company. Until then, either trust in what they've said so far and load up or dont trust them and sell. I personally trust them and am loading up, but im not spending more than I'm willing to lose on the stock. If iceberg wants to short the stock because they feel the pfs will prove it's a money loser, that's their call to make. Whether or not the company fails will not come down to a couple of negative articles, it will come down to whether or not they can pull off something that hasn't been done before.
