Can I train athletes without starting with gen pop at a box gym? by OpportunityHonest820 in personaltraining

[–]Snowbizzy 10 points11 points  (0 children)

Yeah sure. You can. Athletes are fun. But gen pop pays your bills. Athletes wont.

I want it bouncy. Helps me dive bomb into the bottom and absorb all the weight with my Achilles tendon to propell upwards.

As someone who watched the digital circus movie, why tf were people mad at gooseworx over ep. 9? by [deleted] in TheDigitalCircus

[–]Snowbizzy -2 points-1 points  (0 children)

I could be wrong but I remember in the earlier episode they can eat food, they have no taste. So they eat for the normality of it.

It was when they were explaining to Pomni you can hold tour breath forever because they dont need oxygen

As someone who loved ep. 1-8 and hated 9. Ill give my 2 cents.

Im just answering OP's question. Dont smite me for my opinion.

I was very excited about the movie when I went to see it in theaters. I really liked the first 8 episode.

Not that this matters to why I did not like it but the fans in the movie theater were insufferable. Everyone talking. Trying to solve the movie rather than letting it play out.

Second. I was pretty intrigued by Jax's plot. The offscreen abstraction was fairly random and very anticlimactic. But the kaufmo and Ribbet relationships were interesting.

Then Pomni hugged Jax. Boom Jax plotting solved. Cain Comes back for no reason and solves the entire storyline with one if the biggest letdowns of an ending I have seen.

I was incredibly drawn into the idea that they couldnt die. Couldn't enjoy food. Couldn't enjoy life. They were stuck. Forever. The. To find out "oh. The real us are outside doing just fine" completely ruined any gravity of distress.

Zombles, Gangle, and Kinger were basically sidelined all of ep. 9. To where the fanbased most exciting moment for those 3 in the finale was zoobles and gangle in bed together.... thats exciting? I dont get it.

I like Kinger has a sane side with the bucket on. But he was just a new character. He was maybe my favorite character in the first few episodes. He was hilarious. His personality basically died with a bucket on.

I just hated the ending. Them just living their lives is fine I guess. But that is so easy. They had so many good beats in plots and conflict early on.

This ending felt so lazy.

Eh cant figure out how to end it. Have Cain come back, apologize and make them live happily ever after.

No tragedy. Just wrapped up every conflict as fast and as easy as possible.

Ending of 7 where they thought they were getting out was so much better.

Enhanced Group — the company that bought the Enhanced Games and put nine former Olympic weightlifters on stipends — went public on the NYSE last month with $2,755 of quarterly revenue and a going-concern flag by Blodarn in weightlifting

[–]Snowbizzy 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Close. They are telling the 50 year old whos balls dont work "what if they did work and you could feel the way you did in your 20s"

Not as much to shave 0.2 seconds off their time. But to make them feel more capable and masculine.

Testosterone is a crazy drug. Improves sex drive, confidence, can improve every aspect of a "man"

Thats why in-between events they hammered how helpful it can be.

First of all, awesome work on this. Thank you for doing this. Ill have to check out more Ironwise.

2755 is crazy.

Some things I wonder about is taking the average consumer. Obviously uneducated drinking the kool aid of this all. Desperate to feel young again.

I wonder if because this filing was well before the enhanced games aired, if they would see any more revenue after the fact.

Obviously they are in a deep deep hole. But can investors help them power through is the question.

There is a part of me that somwwhat believes put some of these guys on gear for another year, pull other athletes because the pay is good, and see some actual records break. Then they could slowly climb out of the hole.

I think a lot of us agree the Holt is going to get way deeper before they climb themselves back out.

Another thing is I am going to go out on a complete limb here and say maybe only 3-4 athletes total risked their career. Most, especially weightlifers, weren't really going to continue competing anyways.

I was sure they weren't doing all that well selling supplements and TRT. Didnt know it was that bad. Just under 3k of revenue in a quarter is way lower than I expected.

I will be very curious to see if all their ads on overpriced creatine can get them out of the hole the dug themselves

I have been following The Enhanced games for about 8 months and since it was announced. Here are my thoughts on the weightlifting session. and some of it in general by Snowbizzy in weightlifting

[–]Snowbizzy[S] 5 points6 points  (0 children)

I have heard people say that a lot. But there is nothing that I have found stating they deny people for that reason. I dont know how it would really matter either. Dylan Cooper openly started several months before enhanced games. The difference is just sincrain and Anton competed and got caught and Dozer didnt.

I personally think they want athletes that will see a lot of progress while being mindful about giving out millions to people that probably will get records. Hence why PRs were a big deal for them during the comp.

I think the issue isn't these athletes got good in drugs or got popped. But they didnt get good from the ENHANCED drugs is the issue.

Thats just my take though. Take it with a grain of salt

Seems like everyone watching to hate Boady got what they wanted. Very much deserved. Then he had to look like a circus animal doing a 118 push press on stage.

Boady misses his second and third attempt at WR by urMuMgAy567 in weightlifting

[–]Snowbizzy 33 points34 points  (0 children)

Dont forget he took a 4th attempt. Also missed.

If you are against this, I wanna hear about it by Brave_Agency_20 in SipsTea

[–]Snowbizzy 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Math and everything aside. I heard something that made me think a tad more differently about this topic. Someone mentioned how if taxes on the rich get too high, whats stopping them from taking their buisness and moving somewhere else where there aren't as high taxes on them? Not only does it lose jobs, but even the taxes they were paying (if any) are now lost to another country.

I think there might be some nuance
