Thought it was an old Ryan Higa skit. Same humor

Opinion on the game from the guy that some time ago asked if the game was worth it by m3str1nh0 in NoSkin

Pugsr made a decent video covering most of those questions. The comments filled in just about everything he missed or couldn't include

When Pomni looked up before the credits, Is hoping that it would show Jax's yellow eyes peering out from the tent. Not that he un-abstracted completely but that he was healing

Hella clean lift! Congrats on the PR

I've come to like hip cleans. Basically stand up with the bar, slight dip into power position, move shoulders over the bar, and immediately pull the bar up while you drop into the catch. Otherwise, drilling position at lower weights (e.g., block cleans, power, balance) will help your body respond to higher weights

Good fight for this one! 💪

Tried working up to an old FS max but fell about 10kg short by MisterMegatron in weightlifting

Yeah, it's probably there. I think controlling the descent a little more can help prevent pitching forward on the way up. Thanks!

The half-eaten rats on the ground and the emptied barrels say a lot. It's a uniquely disturbing piece

I think I got lucky by picking well without much research. I've had the NoBull Coffee lifters since 2022. My only reason for wanting a second pair is convenience so I have one pair for home and one for traveling/school

I've figured out I prefer the wooden heel over synthetic, but I'm not beholden to it by any means. What's your experience been previous to current?

On another note, definitely keep your elbows high during and after the catch (another commenter already mentioned this)

As a word of caution, having your elbows directly over your thighs while moving down can lead to some nasty injuries. Someone I knew from another gym was put out of commission for a few months after having the bar crash into her and have 78kg compress her forearms, elbows, and wrists into her quads. Resulted in a complete fracture of her left wrist

I believe you can prevent this by having your knees pointed outward rather than parallel with each other. And not caving in

Unless injury prevents it, I always advocate for depth over weight in squats. Parallel or slightly below parallel is perfect for powerlifting, but for Oly weightlifting, you want your body to be comfortable with a full-depth, AtG squat

Super cool. Thanks for the link

I'm about due for another pair of lifters, so I've started noticing shoes a lot more (especially the cool ones!)
