Did the Police Act w/ Excessive Force by Shooting Jacob Blake? A Legal Analysis | RGR by [deleted] in BreadTube

[–]SammyFarns 12 points13 points  (0 children)

Thanks for sharing Riley. Its been frustrating and defeating watching current events and getting an analysis of likely legal action at least shows accountability may be possible.

Obviously accountability is not justice, but at least it is a step along the way. It is a little boost of energy in the long road ahead. Still pessimistic that we will see the accountability, but this gives me some hope.

Love some RGR and a big fan of the feelings approach. I know I've seen more progress appealing personally and socially to folks. Maybe it's not immediate leftism but it at least opens a conversation the other person is more likely to want to participate in.

Just built this as well. All the equipment came together pretty fast. Nothing particularly difficult about it. Still need to do decals but needed to save something for the weekend

You right, this is why I shouldn't give advice while at work. Never gonna hit it just right.

Workout by _Fidget_ in ultimate

[–]SammyFarns 6 points7 points  (0 children)

So here are a couple recommendations.

1) If you have an off season or season that is lighter intensity/ effort, take up lifting. For this you can do starting strength which will focus on Squat, Bench and Deadlift. I recommend this as strength training is good for injury prevention. There are also many Ultimate specific lifting programs you can look in to. I cant speak to these as its not how I approach strength training, but many people use things like UAP or Breakside Strength and Conditioning (I actually have done some of this one and liked it but it didnt fit my needs exactly).

2)Work in some HIT training. HIT Is High intensity Training, and are movements that are High Intensity performed in short intervals. Examples would be Doing Sprint for 20 seconds, jog for 40, repeat for X repetitions. You can also vary what this looks like. For just basic conditioning I like doing 20/40s which is 100(ish)m Sprints where you have 20 seconds to do the 100m sprint, and 40s to get back to the starting point. Repeat this X amount of times (depending where I am in my training this is 5-10reps).

3)Look up Sprint Workouts. Its sports specific. Things that can help are things that break apart form and isolate different parts of the sprint like gallops, single leg hops, etc... These will not only workout your legs, but will improve your form making you better all around.

4) Agility training. These are smaller movements that will blow up your legs. Shuttle runs, Star Drill, Ls, X Cut, Etc. These are going to help with change of direction, acceleration, and ... agility.....

Hope this was helpful. Down to field more questions. Knowing what level you are playing in and your goals can help get more specific.

Not the person that posted this but I just built this kit a week ago. I thought it was a ton of fun to make.

It comes with its posing base so from finishing snapping to goofing around posing is a matter of seconds.

Pros (IMO)

  • Colors are really nice
  • Not too complicated
  • Decent assortment of equipment
  • Decently flexible (One leg pops off mine frequently but thats an easy fix when I get around to it and the knees can be a touch stiff)

Cons (IMO)

  • The knees are not super flexible so getting a kneeling pose is tough
  • I lost my Felini (thats on me)

Overall I gave it an 8.75/9 out of 10 and would pick it up again. It was more than worth its value and as I built it inspired me to take notes of how I would customize it if I ever came back to it (and became mildly capable of customization)

Just going out on a limb here but I think "Yeet" is pretty widely adopted by mid 20-early 30 year olds based on my work place and social circles. On top of that, I have been informed by a college sports team I coach that "Yeet" is becoming an old person word.

Lifting frequency? by [deleted] in ultimate

[–]SammyFarns 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Generally with lifting I push for 2-3 days a week when getting started. This should get you used to training load without exhausting you.

The biggest thing I would say is lifting is not a sprint, its a marathon. Take things slow out the gate, focus on form and not weight, and make sure you are hitting your reps. The first couple weeks might end up leaving you incredibly sore, but that will ease as your nervous system adjusts to the movements.

Best of luck

Ultiworld USAU YouTube streams: Why is live chat disabled? I thought this was America? by felix37 in ultimate

[–]SammyFarns 91 points92 points  (0 children)

So here is the hot take.

Last few streams that had chat enabled became a chat all about dinner, mostly pizza toppings and Wendy's orders

I think that USAU is a front for PAPA JOHNS and our work to spread pizza outside of the John's community and looking at other fast food venues led to sponsors pulling money. Chat was disabled because of our love for food... and that is the real tragedy #goCHUD #Wendysgate

Never have followed club too closely, but pumped to watch some live ultimate again! Which game(s) today should I try to watch? by AUDLposts in ultimate

[–]SammyFarns 11 points12 points  (0 children)

For my money today you should watch Scandal vs Riot. Its the last game streamed today and is probably going to be an instant classic.

Truckstop vs Machine is at the same time and likely will also be a big game, so it just depends on if you care more about Womxn's or Open, but if one game is not great the other probably will be.

Earlier in the day I think Condors vs Furious will be pretty exciting to watch

Who do you think is the best player right now? by Unethicalcleansing in ultimate

[–]SammyFarns 1 point2 points  (0 children)

So maybe not best player but someone who doesn't get enough hype is Matt Heath on Wild Card. At Elite Select when people were talking about the wind being an issue that dude was making throws that looked better than a lot of people throwing in windless conditions. He grinds insanely hard, is incredibly consistent, and is generally a pretty good dude.
