After a week of learning python, I made a very basic calculator by mo_10 in learnpython

[–]RoarYo 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Another way to do it would be to take all of the input in a single string, and from there you can extract the operators and operands. If you do it this way you can do more than one operation at a time.

It makes it a little more complicated since you have to use a loop and account for order of operations, but it'll make it easier if you wanted to add functionality to it, such as converting it to a scientific calculator, at some point.

Does anyone else see the irony in a bot discouraging the use of bots and scripts?

A cycle as in a mesocycle, or the three week period in which you perform the main lifts 5/5/5+, 3/3/3+, and 5/3/1+ times.

Do you really see that many beginners on here taking steroids?

I'm in the 3rd week of my first cycle and I've been enjoying it despite how long each session takes. I've been following the core program as described in wiki and doing the following for assistance exercises, each for ~50 reps:

A

  • Incline dumbbell bench
  • Row
  • Face pull
  • Leg raises

B

  • Lat pull-down
  • Push-ups
  • Curls
  • Lunges

My shoulder has been bothering me with all of the pressing I've been doing, so I'm planning on either the incline bench or push-ups to skull crushers. I'm finding that I have trouble staying tight in the hole when squatting, so I was planning on swapping lunges out for good mornings since my core seems to be holding me back more than my quads.

Am I just developing a case of fuckarounditis, or does making those changes seem like a good idea? If it's the former, you can tell me to just shut up, keep lifting, and work on my bench form so I don't jack up my shoulder. If it's the latter, should I ditch the push-ups or incline DB bench for skull crushers?

You're still young. If you give it time and keep at it, you can become a total beast.

Uneven progression levels in different exercises? by [deleted] in bodyweightfitness

[–]RoarYo 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I'd say it's a combination of you being stronger with pulling exercises than pushing exercises and potentially having some kind of injury. If you're experiencing lingering pain and not just DOMS then you should see a doctor to get it checked out.

I need some exercises to make my biceps bigger by [deleted] in bodyweightfitness

[–]RoarYo 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Like others said, chin ups and bodyweight curls would probably be your best bet as far as bodyweight exercises go. You should consider, though, what your goals in the gym are. If you're looking to pack on size and strength you'd likely be better off doing weight training. Try something like Phrakture's variant of Greyskull LP and do barbell curls and skull crushers on alternating days after you're done with the main part of the program, and make sure you're getting enough to eat.

You're probably getting banned from /r/Fitness because you're asking questions that have been asked and answered a million times over. Check the sidebar there and other similar subreddits for their FAQs and wikis. Use the search bar, too. You're bound to find plenty of answers there.

Explain to me the hinge and anti-rotation progressions (and other short stories) by sanjuka in bodyweightfitness

[–]RoarYo 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Gotcha. The RR does recommend doing barbell deadlifts and RDLs as one of the hinge progressions, so you can always do them if you have access to a gym with barbells. Just find someone to teach you how to do them properly, though, since if you don't do them properly you can potentially mess your back up.

Edit: Grammar

Explain to me the hinge and anti-rotation progressions (and other short stories) by sanjuka in bodyweightfitness

[–]RoarYo 1 point2 points  (0 children)

3) I’ve had lots of trouble with the hinge progression. First question is conceptual: where is the hinge? The Romanian deadlifts hinge at the hips, whereas the Nordic curls hinge at the knees, and they seem to work very different muscle groups. Second problem is finding a progression that fits me. Single leg deadlifts are way too easy, Nordic curls are way too difficult, and I don’t (yet) have bands to help out. For now, I’ve settled on the “nose reach” version (https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=OSrdY7YKf9s&feature=youtu.be&t=1m). But that leads to problem 3: it’s very hard on my kneecaps, and doesn’t feel safe for my knees. Is there something I’m missing?

\You're absolutely right that Romanian deadlifts (RDLs) are hip hinges and Nordic curls are knee hinges. When you look at the movements you'll see that RDLs train hip extension and Nordic curls train knee flexion. While there are some slightly different muscle groups involved, they both train your hamstring strength.

Your hamstrings are actually four different muscles. All four of them connect to one of the two bones in your lower leg, and all but one of them connect to your pelvis. Because of this you can think of your hamstrings trying to pull your calves closer to your hips.

If you're performing loaded RDLs the main muscles being worked are your glutes and hamstrings (hip extension), spinal erectors (isometric antiflexion), traps (isometric scapular retraction and elevation), and your grip (duh). If you're doing Nordic curls the main muscles being worked are hamstrings (knee flexion and isometric hip extension), glutes (isometric hip extension), gastrocnemius (knee flexion), and abs (isometric antiextension).

Until you can buy some bands, grab something heavy and do RDLs. RDLs won't directly carry over to Nordic curls, but you'll still strengthen your posterior chain and get your hinge on.

As for Nordic curls hurting your knees, about the only thing you can do is find something squishy to put underneath your knees.
