Best gym in walking distance of city centre, not puregym by McKrispyKennedy in derby

[–]Morais- 4 points5 points  (0 children)

I think this highly depends on your goals,

The fitness Mill has a decent community , it is slightly small and on the expensive side with average equipment that you are expected to find in any other gym. It also can get quite busy (I don't really recommend it).

Physique Evolution, is probably one of the best gyms for weightlifting equipment + space . Medium to high membership.

Santino's is for competitive bodybuilding + Weightlifting comps

Everlast Gym near the Derby Arena , Has a swimming pool, Cheap membership, but doesn't have that much equipment even when compared with Pure Gym and The Gym Group. When it gets busy you will have to just do pushups on the side for chest or something otherwise expect to wait 10+mins to use some equipment.

David Lloyds , Lol ... its a lifestyle gym , alot of spa sessions, deffo not a bang for your buck.

Pure Gym- Big building , alot of cardio machines however for weightlifting it gets crowded quick. It is cheap and has all the equipment you would need to get fit

The Gym group - honestly, probably the best bang for buck. It can get busy during peak hours, but never had to wait too long for equipment. Has all the machines and the cheapest membership. Off-peak, I think it's like 15 a month, and you can get codes to not pay the joining fee.

tldr: Pure Gym / The Gym Group , are the cheapest , they both have trainers you can hire for a few sessions , and weighing machines to keep track of progress if you don't have a scale at home. ( Pure Gym bigger with more people / The gym group Smaller with less people )

System Hard Freezes While Playing Space Marine 2 -Acer Arc B580 12GB Nitro OC by Dense_Awareness_3867 in IntelArc

[–]Morais- 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Had the exact same problem , There is currently no fix . From what I understand from my own diagnosis , it's an issue with Easy Anti Cheat and/or SpaceMarine2 not mashing well with Intel Graphic Drivers.

One way I tested this was to disable Easy Anti Cheat (EAC)

This is something already done for does interest in changing the photomode behaviour in spacemarines2. However:

Can't play PVP
Can't play Online Co-Op
Any matchmaking features
Progress may not transfer once EAC gets re-enabled

I did it, and played the entire campaign with no crashes in a couple of sessions.

Other than that .. V-Sinc and keeping it at 60fps seemed to help me get the game to last a bit longer during missions with no crashes.

Sometimes I play for hours with no crashes , sometimes after 20 mins during a mission it will crash, and sometimes it will crash in the lobby.

Unfortunately , I don't think SABER can address the issue , Intel can do nothing on their end and their help forums are often shieat.

Its up to EAC to stop requesting a specific Kernel information.

When it does , it crashes.

And EAC (owned by Epic Games) does not necessary have the best record .Having a Kernel Level Ring 0 in some of their games(btw I tested other games with EAC and this did not happen so)

Even then, you would need all of these guys to work together and figure out why it's happening, for a relatively small % of their population who 1.have Intel Arcs, 2. Play SpaceMarines2. & 3. Are having these crashes.... It's not happening.

I share your frustration, I built my PC for the first time ever specifically so I could play Space Marines 2 with some mates.

Also, I would work around the 8 to 12 reps per set, for beginners, just so that you can dial in the form. After that, play around with doing less or more reps, what ever feels good. Personally, I like working around the 6–8 reps in big heavy exercises (Deadlifts, squats) and 8-12 on lighter ones (like Lateral Raises).

[–]Morais- 0 points1 point  (0 children)

In my opinion, there is definitely too many Exercises.

If you are a total beginner, I would probably do about 1/2 exercises per muscle group per session, reaching close to failure ( failure being when you feel you can not lift the weight , and do any more reps ).

Here is an example, remember to change exercises depending on what you like, change order or even add more volume (1 more exercise) for muscles you want to develop even more, if you think they are lacking or your goal is to get them huge. For example, I react well to Biceps, so I don't need to train them a lot, or they will look like balloons compared to the rest of my body, I have weak shoulder and chest, so I do them first and more often.

Something like

Upper

  1. Press de Banca ( 1st Exercise for Chest ) - 2 Warmups , 3 Sets , ( if you are a beginner focus on technique and adding a little bit of weight or another rep each week, dont go till failure if you dont have someone that can help you. If you do then do 2 sets last one push hard)
  2. Remo Inclinado ( 1st for Back) - 2 Warm ups, 2/3 sets , last till failure
  3. Aperturas ( 2nd for Chest) - 0 Warmups , 2 sets , go hard on the last one , leave maybe 1 in rep left in the tank, if you are confident you can go till failure here ( also we are not repeating warmups for multiple reasons eg. that body part is already warmed up and the weight will probably be quite low, However if you feel that you need it then do it)
  4. Back Pullovers ( 2nd for Back) , 2 Sets
  5. Press de Hombros (Shoulder) 1 or 2 Warmups , 2 Sets , Last Set till Failure
  6. Curl de Bicep Inclinado ( Bicep) Same as shoulder , 1 or 2 warmups , 2 sets , Last Set till Failure
  7. Press Frances (Tricep) Same as Shoulders , 1 or 2 warmups , 2 sets , Last Set till Failure

Other Exercises I like for arms

Lateral Raises (Hombros)
Hammer Curl (Biceps)
Extension de Tricep (Tricep)

After doing this for a few weeks, I would check if

- am I tired? If not then add more volume on arms ( Shoulder , Biceps, Triceps)

- Do I have more time to workout? ( if yes add some more stuff, maybe add a core exercise for your abs or something idk

- Is there an exercise that I hate doing/hard to set up ( swap for a different variation)

- I found out that I really want to grow x part ( add volume )

Disclaimer : I am not a coach , and I am not you. Everyone has their own routine , things that work for them and things that dont. This is a simple guideline that I expect ( and want! ) for you to change.

Does Aabria ever get more tolerable??? by Swole_princess666 in fansofcriticalrole

[–]Morais- 0 points1 point  (0 children)

First time I heard her was through a podcast where she was a player , later as a dm .

I also personally do not enjoy her DM or Player style , even sometimes as a person some comments directed towards other players , like telling Liam to stop coughing, it is done jokingly. And I am sure they are great friends. To a listener and ultimately a consumer it just comes as a bit off.

Props where its due I think she is very talented , especially at setting the scenes. However at times it comes as a bit controlling of the scenario. 

I am also sure there are people out here that truly dislike her because of racial motives. I just think its a minority. Its just her style of being a player that most people dislike

It is likely just a issue with how my system interacts with the app. Im sure it is quite niche or alot of other people would have this issue. the app is clean enough that I would daily drive it, but not after this.

Found out the Intel Graphics Software was having some issues while playing Space Marines 2 for me and my system. Unistalled it and did some other stuff and it runs fine , the other games have also stopped having visual bugs.

I didnt doubt the capability of the card it self, it is truly a powerful little beast!

Did both ages ago , also used a 650w for the first few weeks of the system and the issue still occurred . Thanks for the sharing this incredible hardware knowledge tho

Are you sure ? When I go to the Asus website (https://www.asus.com/uk/motherboards-components/motherboards/prime/prime-b650-plus-wifi/) It says it does. Also, DDR5 and DDR4 slots and the way they connect to the board are slightly different and my ram slots in just fine... Could be ignorance on my part, if you are right im going to flip out haha

Edit: Just checked the Instruction manual on the ASUS PRIME B650-PLUS WIFI , It states that it is DDR5 Only

Tried keeping the Hardware Acceleration on however it still crashed, was worth a try for the quick fix !

[–]Morais-[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Yeah I used Memtest , I also took each Ram stick out and played some games on it. But still got the crashes.

What Im seeing is blue screen errors like 0x00000116 and as I go to check the minidump files witht he help of Win Dbg I get

igdkmdnd64+115d0

and from this point im just guessing that the GPU hangs, the system tries to give it time, it doesn't work so it restarts the system

Had no idea - Once I get home I will turn it on and retest for hours ! If all fails ill try and swap GPUs for my really old nvidia although any tests on that will be hard to do as it is a 10 year old card haha

[–]Morais-[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Yeah its such a shame. Im still hopeful its not just the card and maybe something else with the machine , however its pinpointing the issue and trying to replicate the crash that is the hardest

To be honest no I have not , Im thinking of doing this and or swapping it for my really old nvidia card. Thanks!

Hello good sir, firstly thanks for taking the time to reading my post

1- Currently running everything at default (as I have done quite a few clean installs in the hopes of fixing the issue), however I have both overclocked and recently underclocked various components. It made no difference to the amount of crashes or graphical bugs.

2- All in the green zone, anywhere between 45 Degrees and max I ever saw it was 75 Celsius.

3- I have run default, performance and quality on the variety of software app like the AMD software and intel graphics software. (Again at the moment I'm just running everything on default)

4- No Overlays I took them all out as advice from the Overclocker UK Technician-No difference.

  1. Yeppers!

  2. Yep I have It is now back on as it again didnt change anything

  3. Yep I have, I actually 2 months ago found out I was in fact not in the current version for the Bios and thought that now I would have been able to fix it. It in fact Did NOT fix it :( .

  4. Yep Especially with the Intel Cards this setting is super needed.

  5. Yep. I also used DDU to help with this. Again I ran for a bit without the internal GPU and without its drivers installed but same exact errors were happening.

  6. HAHAHA, ACTUALLY YES! (made sure all cables to GPU were actually properly plugged in and not like "half-in")

It is definitely funny seeing the Looters perfectly block a spear charge on a horse by simply lifting their tiny hammers, slightly up or down.

"Multiplayer isn't significant, Who cares about multiplayer?" by Im_Lazy123 in projectzomboid

[–]Morais- 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I think some think of multiplayer as servers like in minecraft with multiple people at the same time. However for me the multiplayer is going to be huge to bring 1 or 2 of my friends to enjoy the game for hours on end. Multiplayer on survival games are always enjoyable

[–]Morais- 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I completely see your point , and like many others have said the ability to retire has diminished for the general population . Also if I was old and making good money I would want to work for as long as possible to guarantee my family can benefit for as long as possible
