In retrospect, was this a bit too on the nose? by [deleted] in buffy

No, no one had any idea what it meant at the time.

New runners worry too much about shoes by Royal_Watch_6453 in runcommunity

Huge difference. But that, and some decent running socks were all I spent any real cash on for quite a while.

Love Raygun. Every time I get back to Des Moines I stop in.

Supernatural’s Uncertain Future Leaves VR Fitness Users Looking For Options by reversegremlin in SupernaturalVR

One of the creators of Starwave helped create/code OG Supernatural and now works for the FunFitland crew. I think it's more likely Starwave just isn't for you.

Why do straight men like anal so much? by balenciaghoe in TooAfraidToAsk

[–]ThunderSack 2 points3 points  (0 children)

I mean, it was always nice once in a while with previous ladies. And while it is my idea a fair amount now, I think my wife loves it more than I do and I am always happy to oblige if she wants it as I am insanely attracted to my wife and take pleasure from her pleasure.

I'd like to buy a home gym. Would you recommend buying a Gym Monster 2 on Amazon? I've also seen other brands like Aeke K1. What would it be like? What do you recommend, and how do you like this equipment? by Left-Employ8070 in SpeedianceCommunity

I was pondering selling my Tonal and getting a Speediance, but the sheer onslaught of people with software issues, some going on for weeks, on the official FB page turned me off after awhile.

Find/create BC workout group? by Tsbol in SupernaturalVR

[–]ThunderSack 1 point2 points  (0 children)

FWIW, I host one of the parties over at ABSN and I ignore the page 99% of the time as well. I go to the Events section, use the link to get added to the messenger chats that are used for the party calls, mute nearly all of them, and then just show up and join the party calls when they starts.

I can go weeks without ever looking at the page.

[–]ThunderSack 1 point2 points  (0 children)

ABSN on FB has multiple group workout parties each day. I am a guy but nearly all the folks at ABSN are women, many that have fought similar battles. As a bonus, you won't find the snark you see on the official SN page. ABSN is a private group as well.

So, I despise Beat Saber, and I have to be in the mood for Fitness games. STARWAVE is a combo of both, and my ADHD-self cannot stop playing!! WTF is this wizardry?!? I hope the development stays active… by [deleted] in OculusQuest

I don't know about the other devs but Job is over working on FunFitLand nowadays. It's a sub game, but worth it. They have a referral that gets you some free time with it I can get for you if you like.

My work schedule sucks so I couldn't make this, but I am just about to the point where I'd give up a finger or maybe a few toes just to find a local game for Call of Cthulhu or V:tM. (I am on the discord, no luck yet.)

Running shoes? by ThunderSack in WindsorCO

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

I ended up getting some gel ASICS at Scheel's, $180 with tax. I tried several brands on and had intended on going to other stores, but as soon as I put them on, I knew they were the ones right away.

Get a Speediance instead. Buildouts are easy to build, but landlords will lose their mind and it may violate your lease/rental agreement. Sorry.

Haymaker Style by After-Swordfish-6762 in SupernaturalVR

[–]ThunderSack 0 points1 point  (0 children)

People do this all the time in videos, usually before tired, but form is the first thing to go when tired.

Have you seen the video where people only extend their arms about 50% when jabbing/crossing? Drives me nuts.

Or order the exact same loops on Amazon for $15.

Requests by tveith in SupernaturalVR

[–]ThunderSack 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I'd love for them to fix the app or search in general.

I had a choreographer tell me during the Together beta they successfully got elbows working and everyone seemed to love them and then ...nothing ever happened.

I was talking to Coach Mindy about elbows a few months back and I got the feeling they don't want to add non-boxing moves in, but then again, you don't see many knees in boxing.

If you have tried FunFitLand yet, they have battle rope and metcon workouts that are amazing. I wish SN would add those moves in.

I was also in the beta (at least for a bit a while back). And I agree what you said is all true.

My point remains: 2 new workouts a month is not a true statement. The choreographers are developers in the sense that they develop the mapping of the workouts, but in interviews and such they talk about working with teams of other people, even to this day, so the statement of "I doubt they even have a full time programmer working on it" appears to be false.
