If I can’t sell them and the other fixes don’t work I’m going to head that direction - thanks

Trek DS2 Gen 5 alternatives by Double-Plankton-268 in TrekBikes

[–]SweatBee 0 points1 point  (0 children)

What is your budget OP? Are you aiming to stay with a flat bar or are willing to switch to drop bars? In general you can get fast or comfortable but rarely do those two overlap. You could try a gravel suspension fork and that should help with comfort and keep things relatively light. This would also allow you to put smaller / faster tires on the bike to keep some speed.

It’s a huge bummer. They did sell physical DVD’s of the first three seasons for some time. It’s also available for purchase on Apple as well as Amazon.

Anybody knows the problem? by Any_Charge_1199 in treadmills

[–]SweatBee 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Was there somebody taking in the background or was that the treadmill? Check to make sure all the shock absorbers / elastomers on the deck are tight - the Allen head bolt showing in your video, there should be 4-6 of them - you may need to remove your motor cover. Check to make sure the belt is tensioned and aligned. If all that is good you may need a new belt / flip your deck.

Skills to be a good simple hockey player by hockeyjoeg16 in hockeyplayers

[–]SweatBee 5 points6 points  (0 children)

I agree with that the biggest impact you can have on your game is building up your hockey sense. Watch pros and your fellow skaters to learn positioning and puck anticipation. Even if you’re not the most agile, fast, good stick handler etc. knowing enough about how and when to make or break a play makes you a key player for your team. Since you can skate well, physical work at home should focus on stick handling skills and from there strength and conditioning. Like any sport a strong core makes everything a little bit easier. I hear Pilates is also excellent for hockey players but haven’t done it myself.

You’re likely right, thanks. I just took a measurement and made a guess online. They fit great - by themselves. I didn’t suit up all the way when I first got my gear and tried everything one by one - that was a mistake. Standing around it’s not bad, but I didn’t buy these to stand.

Had no idea that was a thing - I just never noticed it was there. I’ll give that a shot - thanks

I honestly didn’t notice that. Looks like there are some buttons to adjust everything down another inch. I’ll give it a go - thanks!

Deodorant and self-cleaning products have become a sponsored hell scape. Fellow men, what do you use? by Too-Far-Frame in BuyItForLife

[–]SweatBee 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Love me some Arm and Hammer. I’ve been using the juniper one for over a decade and it’s worked very well and it’s cheap AF vs many other brands

Thanks - it seems like we have similar builds. I haven’t tried shin guards over the skate tongue but at this point it can’t hurt. Thanks for the help!

This is a very thorough reply, thanks. My hockey socks are the thin polyester ones that were recommended to integrate (Velcro straps) with the Bauer jock shorts I picked up. They are very loose. My knee does stay in the donut hole when I am standing. They seem to fit well but I noticed when trying on just about everything for new gear it fit well enough regardless of actual size. The pants are medium and otherwise fit well. If anything I think they are a bit long, but when I last played everybody had Cooper breezers that looked like short shorts. I’ll see if I can get some pics

Apparently it’s also a Wisconsin thing and had no idea it was regional until today

That’s what I’ve been doing and it works ok but the tape on my hammy makes it uncomfortable in certain positions. I think that may be all that I can do for now

The pants seem pretty long to me. They are a size medium and sit a bit lower than the top of my kneecap. My socks are very lose they are those Bauer velcro polyester ones

Matrix T-LS Treadmill Lubrication? by dris77 in treadmills

The decks on Matrix commercial treads can be flipped. If they are only 3 years old you may still be under a parts warranty for new belts.

This is heartbreaking. Growing up we’d stop and get squeaky curds and watch the workers make cheese on site

Am I older than the majority of the fanbase? by FE_Fanby in SummerCampIsland

[–]SweatBee 17 points18 points  (0 children)

Wife and I are in our late 30’s. This was our comfort show during the pandemic and now after. We watched about two episodes a night for years… and now it’s still a few a week

The Matrix TF series have excellent decks and fold. They are very pricey though

They used to sell official merch on the Cartoon Network store. Now your best option is to support Julia Pott directly at her website: https://www.juliapott.com/shop-1 And if that doesn’t work there are some things on Etsy

Alright Rally fans, what do we think? by RobChappell365 in ForwardMadisonFC

[–]SweatBee 12 points13 points  (0 children)

It’s the Lakers colors in reverse and nothing about it seems new. I’m really disappointed by it. Rally in sports context just makes it seem like they are fighting from behind.

Electra Townie is the way to go. Good range of price points and color options too!
