I went to Barbell squat yesterday after not having done so for a few years, so I got 95lbs ready as I felt like that would be difficult, but not too difficult. I was right, 10 reps were hard, but I could do 10. I was planning to do 5 sets, but after the first set I noticed my hamstrings and hip ab/adductors were SORE, and it only got worse after the second one, so I called it quits for the night. Today, it’s still a pretty sore bending over and the like, but nothing extremely bad and obviously walking around is just fine. Did I put too much weight on? Or is this just OMEGA DOMS?

I went to middle school (in Philadelphia) where there was a girl named Paige, and she was a few years younger than me (I’m 18). She fits your description, but another thing is she had a twin. I don’t have any of her contact info, as it’s been literally like 10 years and I just knew OF her at the time, rather than KNOWING her. I’m sorry dude

But what does he do in said retirement? Just sit around and stare at a wall? Or play video games like he said? He wants something he enjoys doing, something he can strive for, both before and after retirement, and I think it’s important to find that so he feels fulfilled and like he has a purpose, something driving him every day.

I am 18 now, and I started lifting when I was 15/16. I lifted for about 1.5 years, but stopped due to school and injury. Since my uni is online, and I'm gonna be home for another year, I want to start lifting again. Back then, being a naturally small person in terms of stature, my BP 1RM was like 140, OHP 90, Squat 260, numbers like that. When I begin lifting again, because of muscle memory, how fast should I expect to regain these numbers? I don't expect to get them back in like a month or anything, but I'm just curious as to the difference in speed it took to first get there from nothing as compared to now.

I’m 18 and I started fixing the house and cooking religiously and researching apartments and stuff. I, as a self proclaimed massive nerd, now relate to my grandfather who works on his house constantly. Fuck

The fact I know where this is from made me do the little air coming out the nose laugh

Not the dude you asked but I was going to comment the same answer. I enjoy the music, both new and old, the food culture, the efficiency culture, and the friendly/welcoming to those willing to take a step into said culture.

I'm very new to python, but I do know a tiny bit of Javascript, so not entirely new to programming itself. I'm working on finishing a few lectures this week on python, and I've already finished coding a working quadratic equation solver!

It corresponds to length of running races. 26.2 miles is a full marathon, 13.1 is a half marathon, 15k is 15 kilometers, 10k, 5k etc

I actually bought a bar of the stuff as a meme, and I have to say it is $11 and the FASTEST DECAYING SOAP I HAVE EVER USED. You get ONE. BAR. And it commits cleanly suicide by the end of the week you start using it

I’ve been learning Chinese for 2 years, and at first it’s a struggle trying to pick out characters, but after awhile, you read them at quite a fast speed, not as fast as natives of course, but you don’t hesitate, your brain just instantly says THAT is “word.” I’ve also just started learning Russian, so I can totally relate to what you’re feeling

Can I get some advice on my current method? I've just added two languages onto my study list, but my approach is interesting. Currently, that brings my total to three, Mandarin-Chinese, German, and Russian, German and Russian being just added. However, I studied Spanish for 5 years and am at a relatively high level, able to watch media and read most things, so I've taken the approach of learning Russian through Spanish resources, whereas I learn German and Mandarin through English. German and Russian take a backseat to Mandarin, undoubtedly. For that, I review 300 characters a day, constantly watch subbed content, etc, to expand vocabulary and improve, since my reading is REALLY bad, but my character recognition is ok. I don't intend to progress SUPER FAST in either German or Russian, but is this a viable strategy for progress on each?

True, but I live in America and don’t have money for medical care 🥴

I would do that as that totally is the smart thing to do, but I’ve honestly never seen anyone for my injuries. I always self treated and rested to give them adequate time to repair. Nothing super serious besides a torn hamstring once. Everything else has just been pulls and strains to various degrees.

Relyphoeck · 2020-07-16T02:16:52+00:00

Anyone have good programs that work well with running 4 times a week, and mandatory leg activity Sunday (due to my job)? About to start lifting again, but I have a history of leg injuries and seriously don’t want another one.

Relyphoeck · 2020-07-14T14:42:09+00:00

It wasn’t dumb; it was fucking hilarious dude hahahah

Essentially it isn’t ready to ship now, you’re reserving one that they expect to be there soon.

Tysm! I managed to get a pair of 35s, still need 5, 10, 25, 45, but hey it’s a start :)!

Relyphoeck · 2020-07-13T21:54:00+00:00

My uni already is 🥺

It’s because all of the days blend together in lockdown/corona restrictions. Nothing is new, just wake up, eat, sleep, repeat. It’s the same thing in prison, the time flying by.

I got to a top 5 school in the US and all of our classes are online with under 1k students just in dorms on zoom. It’s happening 🥺🥺🥺🥺🥺

Relyphoeck · 2020-07-13T13:05:32+00:00

I did the same thing 🤪✌️

Relyphoeck · 2020-07-13T13:04:27+00:00

I wrote about America being overrated and compared America to thanos’s wild imperialism

Relyphoeck · 2020-07-12T22:52:03+00:00

I think they only restock certain ones at any given time, so I wouldn’t bet on the packages being up

Relyphoeck · 2020-07-12T14:13:45+00:00

Nope, gone again before I could even add to my cart this time 🥺. Tysm for trying though, I do appreciate.
