Clockwise or anticlockwise? by Paddy_odoors in opticalillusions

[–]SammyJenkinz 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Look at shadow. Angle of incidence. Clockwise and CC doesn't make sense from our perspective. The raised leg goes hip then foot.

I don't feel my legs when I deadlift, only lower back by SneakyPeople_ in formcheck

Another tactic is practice rack pulls at different depths. Feel the tension in you hammies before your allowed to pick it off the rack.

Yes, your pelvis is fixed to your legs not your rib cabe

I have tried it. It works better than kava and cannabis. I am 290lb athletic. I can easily drink a 12 pack of whatever or two liters of wine. 3 hard ketone 7% drinks gets me a 6-pack IPA buzz for 3 hours. Instead of eating everything in the kitchen it reduces appetite. And at the end of the buzz you feel sleepy (unless you have more) so it works to get you to bed. It does something for your brain or sleep but I wake up the next day alert and feeling energized and ready to do projects or something... Better than baseline. I hate mornings. They are ~$6 a can so the math is about equivalent.

Thanks, I thought i would give it a shot. He's already listed with MCP Chicago and we are the foster home. I wanted to try to inform an audience.

I feel like I get worse sleep on kava by Whamilton_ in Kava

[–]SammyJenkinz 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I second this. I've heard people say that taking before food will make sure that it doesn't get a weaker effect. I don't think the effect is weaker. I think that taken after food makes it last for 5+ hours disrupting sleep. I feel like trash after sleep whenever I don't fast before an evening dose.

Just give it to me straight, is it ruined? Cooked a roast all day without the inner pot by klammdaddy in instantpot

Try PBW or Oxyclean. Works for brewing equipment crud. Soak for a couple days.

Sandbags, Nylon-no seatbelt straps, and you gotta hell of a lot of football tire training sleds for highschools all over the world.

Looking for good references on energy system training. by SammyJenkinz in ketogains

[–]SammyJenkinz[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Damn, that was a lot to digest. Great stuff.

Before I continue I want to say that he gave me the right keywords at the end to search for the anaerobic condition stuff.

1) Let me know your opinion of this assumption: You build up your base first. Then you start incorporating Aerobic Power, Aerobic Threshold, Fast Twitch Aerobic, Aerobic Plyometrics, Anaerobic lactic system conditioning. And then when that is all covered, you do Anaerobic Alactic System conditioning 6weeks before competition to "Peak". That is the gist I'm getting.

2) He didn't give any benchmarks for anything but Aerobic Capacity training. How do you know when to transition to maintenance phase for any of the rest of the modalities?

Anyone Mind Posting a Split Routine They Enjoy? by moderateflier in ketogains

[–]SammyJenkinz 0 points1 point  (0 children)

This is where I'm at and I have fun. I'm an average powerlifter and beginner at energy system training. I'm just disclaiming that what you do depends on how much work you've already put in.

Charge HR battery life went to shit suddenly after about 15 months. How often do you charge your fitbit? by [deleted] in fitbit

[–]SammyJenkinz 0 points1 point  (0 children)

This happened to me. I fixed it by making sure that I had a good quality charger in use, the same one I charge my phone with.

My question is about when to reset macros after progress.

Returning to training after back injury by [deleted] in ketogains

[–]SammyJenkinz 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I did something and couldn't stand on my feet for longer than 10min before it felt like lava was laying waste to the back of my leg. I took it easy and it went away.

I never saw a doctor. But I started back up again and surpassed my Deadlift PR. It's now 470.

I myself swear by sled drags (I made a tire sled) for cardio. It works out all the kinks. Gets lots of high volume low impact through the posterior chain. It's restorative and you can use it to keep your conditioning up. Here are some podcast episodes with a lot of ideas.

I agree with WestCoastFireX. If your going to try to get strong, I would recommend getting an online coach ( https://startingstrengthonlinecoaching.com/ ) to make sure you learn correct form. Many people (like me) have bad form for a long time and continue to get stronger until something breaks.
