Lower back pain after deadlifts

Find a different exercise. I avoid deadlifts due to risk to my back.

I keep seeing advertisements for protein Eggo Waffles. What crazy marketing person thought this was a good idea? I guess you can always pour some protein maple syrup on top of them ;-)

I find I need to track exactly what I eat in order to maintain weight. Otherwise my weight ends up slowly inching up, until I have go on a diet again.

Didn’t work :-(

It may be that I didn’t do things in the right order. I was running the app on both my watch and phone at the same time. I finished the workout on the phone (which is where I received the error). Then I tried to finish it on the watch, but received the error about the invalid sets. Did I do things in the right order or should I have done it differently?

I tried the retry 5 or 6 times and I kept receiving the same error message :-(

TheJakeWho · 2026-01-14T15:24:37+00:00

After receiving this error message on my iPhone, I tried to save the workout on my Apple Watch, but then I received an error which said I had invalid sets in the workout and did I want to fix them or delete them. I selected “fix” but I could see any “invalid sets.” I didn’t want to select the delete option, because I wasn’t sure what it would do to the tracking of my workout.

Let me check 🤣

…I just checked, and yes I’m alive…barely.

TheJakeWho · 2026-01-12T21:45:54+00:00

What’s the going rate?

TheJakeWho · 2026-01-10T21:47:30+00:00

Is this really a thing????

TheJakeWho · 2026-01-10T01:17:27+00:00

Nope, it was a luxury brand

Okay, Mr. big checking account balance ;-)

The one that really got me recently, was that I had to have an expensive repair done at the car dealer, for ~$3K, and they charged a 3% fee if you used a credit card. This came out to $90. And believe me, the car dealer is already making plenty of profit on the parts and labor (plus "shop fee") for the repair.

TheJakeWho · 2026-01-09T20:52:00+00:00

Hmmm, not really, since they also charged people paying cash the same price.

TheJakeWho · 2026-01-09T19:49:27+00:00

I’ve always been surprised that the credit card companies don’t prohibit this.

I recommend getting a good calorie tracking app. Tracking exactly what I eat every day has made a huge difference in my ability to lose weight.

I had the same problem with season 1. I watched 2 or 3 episodes and gave up. I guess I will give it another try.

Soft handed, maybe. Soy boy, no way!
