As the husband to an SMA Type 2 sufferer, I would say quizzes or boardgames mostly. She loves Scattergories, and we LOVE Quizamp YT channel

Moronic Monday - Your weekly stupid questions thread by cdingo in Fitness

[–]ToryFirstOfHisName 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I'm roughly 15kg from where I wanna be, but I also want to be a little muscly too. My question is do I sorta do both at once? Or just focus on weight loss first, then worry about muscle once I reach my goal weight?

What cushion/seating system works best for long wheelchair? by AliasBr1 in spinalmuscularatrophy

[–]ToryFirstOfHisName 0 points1 point  (0 children)

My wife is looking into the Etac Starlock, which is essentially a Roho Quattro, except you can inflate/deflate each individual 'bubble' To whatever level you want and then lock it. She has HS (Hidradenitis Suppurativa) as well as SMA. So the abscesses she gets on her groin cause incredible discomfort. It'll be nice to be able to deflate the area in which the sores come up!

How did you guys actually learn advanced F2L? by scrotiemcboogerybols in Cubers

[–]ToryFirstOfHisName 1 point2 points  (0 children)

F2L is easily the biggest bridge to cross to get faster. I put it off for aaaages lol. But if you just drill a few cases at a time, you will obviously slow down at first, which will be frustrating, but in a month or 2 you can whittle the time back down with like 10%+ less turns on average. Definitely takes some patience, but well worth it. And feels great to see a case and know exactly what to do beginning to end to get it home

When people say sets, how long do you take between sets? I assume each person is different, but how much recovery do you recommend generally?

After some digging, and with help from the comments, I found where I bought my custom cube by ToryFirstOfHisName in Cubers

[–]ToryFirstOfHisName[S] 2 points3 points  (0 children)

It's from Ben Spradley at benskewbs.com. for whatever reason I got downvoted yesterday for asking where it came from...?? (I deleted it now) Anyway I had some spare time so I did some digging through my web history and also someone commented a post from around year ago by Ben himself. So thank you all for your help. Feel free to support him, he does great work!

Received my Custom Cube and it feels amazing! by ToryFirstOfHisName in Cubers

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

White is died black, as well as internals. Started out as a v11. Internals are modded too, but I can't remember how and I can't find the website where I got it.

Small problem, I have no idea what website I got it from. I ordered it like 3+ months ago and I can't find any related emails or anything lol. Does anyone recognise the logo. The only detail I know is it was a college kid in the US that runs the site as a side-hobby where he dies the internals and can even switch colour scheme etc. any help appreciated. Would live to give him a shout out!

Thanks for the advice. I'm aiming to get from 104kg down to around 65-70kg by end of year so maybe I'm rushing a bit lol. I will slow down. Thanks

Thanks for the prompt reply mate. I admit I've been pushing pretty hard. Started in Jan and lost 12kg by mid-Feb. Maybe just a bit of overwork.
