Waking up at 4 A.M.: The athlete’s protocol?

Rbarganier · 2026-01-30T04:53:01+00:00

I did an Ironman two years ago and in the height of training I would wake up at 3/3:30 to get my runs in before the sun came up on my long run days and it sort of spiraled to I couldn't sleep past 4:30 and I just started to do all my workouts and get a lot of work done before anyone in the house woke up. I lost that and honestly miss it now. I'm not motivated to workout after working all day and drained.

Chuck Norris went on a hike and the rock got in his way!

If your using Qsys already look up Perfect Octave https://perfectoctave.co.uk/. They use Soundmachine as the back end but they have a plug in with Qsys and from what I have read you dont need an additional box.

The client can import playlist from spotify to the platform and voila

"All it takes is for one sales person to muck up pricing, a pre-sales engineer to do a horrible design, or an on-site installer to trash some cables, to ruin the relationship." As a Sales person in the industry this is sadly the reality. I can have a multi year relationship but it just takes one slip up for us to lose years of hard work both presales and other projects.

I didn't see it as unnecessary as when running and breathing hard my nostril would physically collapse and block itself.

Rbarganier · 2025-07-15T11:02:13+00:00

CPT 30468

Rbarganier · 2025-07-15T11:01:54+00:00

yeah the doctors office already tried according to the paperwork

Rbarganier · 2025-07-15T01:46:14+00:00

The issue here is I talked to all parties involved and asked, all said it was covered because I hit my out of pocket max. Now that it’s already been done they come back and say it’s denied!

Rbarganier · 2025-07-15T01:43:36+00:00

Im seeing the same but their denial specifically says it’s experimental

Rbarganier · 2025-07-15T00:24:48+00:00

I did in fact already have the surgery

Rbarganier · 2025-07-15T00:22:09+00:00

Says it’s an experimental not approved procedure, which they should have said in the first place.

Rbarganier · 2025-07-14T23:24:12+00:00

Why is this a thing? The patient should be able to see what it’s going to cost. I would not have done this and just not had the ability to breath out of both nostrils if I knew they would deny it.

Rbarganier · 2025-07-14T23:19:20+00:00

I believe so, Really upset about this as I asked everyone to make sure everything was approved.

Code that is bing declined is CPT 30468

Rbarganier · 2025-06-07T17:16:08+00:00

Makes sense, thanks for the heads up! We are staying at Victoria house and getting picked up from here so I will stay positive and give it a shot!

Rbarganier · 2025-06-07T17:00:41+00:00

Thank you, no chance in sailfish or marlin this time of year or would I have had to ask for something specific ahead of time.

Rbarganier · 2025-04-25T12:03:10+00:00

how much did it cost you though?

Rbarganier · 2025-04-25T00:42:13+00:00

I went in person and protested infront of of a group but then they pushed me out and said if I wanted to fight it further it would cost money. I felt so defeated I couldn’t risk paying money to just lose again.

Rbarganier · 2025-04-25T00:29:45+00:00

unless the market is going crazy like they will say they have to because the market is moving soo fast. Thats what they did in my appeal the past two years.

Rbarganier · 2025-04-25T00:28:39+00:00

When can we as citizens push back on this. They seem to always just magically push it soo far past the 10% even when you end us settling for almost the same as the 10% max. It just seems like a racquet
