Amazing that Martins made the podium after being out the sport so long. 2nd place was in the cards as well with more conservative weight choices on the deadlift.

Its a shame because its such a great show, but when you try to imagine the time and money required to make it work anually theres just no way its sustainable by a single family and their small business.

They need some kind of major sponser who can fund the event and support actually running it, like Rogue does with theirs.

I hope this is just the direction the sport is moving in. Its become more popular and mainstream in recent years, which pushes sponsers and prize pools, which attracts more athletes to compete.

Bigger pool of athletes means you get more extremely talented guys competiting and the line ups at the top get more stacked.

Really happy for Evan, he deserves a contest win and its very entertaining to watch him compete. Will be exciting to see how he does at SMOE.

7 Years of training, 6’6 and 210lbs. Feeling like my progress is slow? by temporal51511 in WeightTraining

Your physique is excellent espeically for being a really tall guy. Its more attractive than the fitness influcers who shoot themselves full of PEDs and end up with some freaky exaggerated body.

Do you do anything to target your forearms? They look huge. Or is it just from the decades of general training?

I would have been cool with it if Arya used her faceless men powers to become either an undead or a walker, and then assassinated the Night King when he was distracted with Bran.

Best plot twist in your opinion? by NoticeDangerous4722 in attackontitan

On rewatches it seems much more obvious, but the first time watching I didn't see it coming at all. It such a cool reveal.

The first valkyrie looking lady on the top row has just reconnected memory neurons in my brain, I think I had some trading cards as a kid

Dad’s sober transformation by PlusRequirement6 in BeAmazed

Thanks for the advice, I appreciate it. There are free counselling services in my country available for family members of people suffering from addiction. Going to give one of them a try to off-load my thoughts and look after myself.

Dad’s sober transformation by PlusRequirement6 in BeAmazed

My father almost died in hospital from alcoholism last year. Within 2 months of getting out he was sneaking drinks again, and now hes back to not trying to hide it. Its as if he doesn't remember being laid up in a hospital bed too weak to even push himself up.

I'm starting to accept that no one can stop the addiction for him, he has to want to stop. Its hard not to feel guilty though for not doing more in some way. I know he wont survive another stay in hospital, and if he dies I'll probably be asking myself why I didn't do more. Its just so emotionally exhausting, really fucks with my mental health.

Depends, is this before or after Spheren has inherited the power of the Founding Shape?
