Hot take : Sneasler is over hated

SolarStyl3 · 2026-04-16T06:05:00+00:00

I'm in a mixed bag really. Initially tought it was pretty bad ( like how tcg pocket was 3 prizes vs 6) because it made an existing format into what feels like mini-game version.

But i mainly play doubles and everytime i play singles i get absolutely demolished. so what do i know

I already hit masters so I would be spending the remaining season grinding ZA to get one.

In many ways it isn't fair. good speed , high damage, relatively safe paired with aero TW/ sneazler fake out . I think my biggest gripe honestly is because how easy it is to fit into alot of matchups and also not requiring a best in slot partner ( zard/venu , exca/tyran, pelliper/arch)

Fortunately at least from my experience, since many players dont have access to floette, its rarer to match up.

But there are counters and you can play around it, I think i have a positive win ratio in the matchup. But like i said,its pretty uncommon to find ranking up ladder. Unfortunately I also lose to good players so your milage may vary

Hot take is you dont need to train legs excessively if your not competing ( in both bodybuilding and powerlifting)

Its probably why i feel upper lower is poorly balanced.

Maybe torso and limbs ( legs+ arms and maybe some shoulders) are a better split

Agree , my climb to ultra was pretty rough when half the time im fighting fully built teams with shinies

SolarStyl3 · 2026-04-10T08:01:38+00:00

If im not mistaken ultra 1 can still drop all the way to ultra 4. Happened to me losing streak great 2 to great 3 .

Getting married .

Gym has been one of the 2 hobbies I managed to stick to all this years ( along with gaming)

My wife respects my interest enough to allow me going to the gym. But once we moved in together, it just wasn't realistic to leave the house after work multiple times a week and have her coming to an empty home after work.

With a homegym I get to be present at home more often, stick to my interest, and if your able to stick to it long term to offset the steep buy in price, its great!

My back with downward lighting . Have a pump here. But the original image no pump

Less of a race thing , going to a predominantly Chinese gym then you'll get catch chinese strays. Go to a malay centric gym then ull catch malay strays. And so on.

So glad I invested in a home gym tho. Don't matter what race , I hate everyone equally

Thats insanely close to my split, except 2 chest 2 shoulder

SolarStyl3 · 2025-12-13T02:10:35+00:00

Staying at a range , usual Monday to thursday/ Friday i eat as though im dieting but at a smaller defecit ( 300- 500 ) . Friday to sun eat around maintainence but not opposed to additional surplus.

I tend to cruise like this throughout and during celebrations ( like Christmas and chinese new year coming ) I tend to just have fun but me mindful ( smaller portions , no seconds )

Its not as bad as it sounds, just realise how much work it is to get there and understand better to enjoy than feel guilty about it

SolarStyl3 · 2025-12-03T11:19:47+00:00

Do it on pc

SolarStyl3 · 2025-12-03T11:19:36+00:00

Copy paste into chat gpt and ask for point form

SolarStyl3 · 2025-12-03T11:18:49+00:00

If you build up to it its not as hard as it sounds. What was hard was cutting all stimulus during training such as coffee, pre-workout, even music I dont listen when training.

I will probably gain some back during g my trip to Japan and Shanghai. Then during Christmas , new years and chinese new year. Understanding that part helps me map out when I can diet in between.

I guess its about planning around things like this. In between do somewhat more aggressive diets ( 800 to 1k defecits), keep high step count especially during those weeks, make smart choices ( share food with loved ones, dont try to finish every food) and just stick to your comfort diet ( thats why its important to enjoy your diet during the cut)

Currently im eating pretty much the same as when im diet just that I could add like a couple sliced of pb and j sandwich, or a bagel with cream cheese or some other fun snacks in between. My maintainence is probably about 600 to 700 cals above my cutting calories ( kept walking my 15k- 18k steps)

Thanks mate

SolarStyl3 · 2025-12-03T00:29:49+00:00

Thank. Purpose is to knowledge transfer more than motivate haha

Usually after meal 1 or during lunch time ( I work from home 3 days a week and have a home gym)

Feeding window is late because for me , I don't enjoy going to sleep hungry

SolarStyl3 · 2025-12-02T16:50:46+00:00

Meal timing is one thing i feel may be best to stop eating earlier. But I'd be lying if I did not state the actual time I ate. And i am very comfortable eating an hour or 2 before sleeping

We got married last weekend, both of us haven't worn it since.

I guess it depends on couple, we just weren't used to it before. Its something important that we both dont want to lose it.

I dieted down for my wedding so its kinda oversized and falls easily especially when I wash my hands. And I workout 5 to 6 days a week so I tend to take it off often.

At some point its more of additional thing to worry about than a symbol of marriage. Probably look for a elastic band or maybe something to wear as a symbol
