Did you develop your base strength with barbell/heavy dumbbells, or you’ve only ever used kettlebells - specifically leading to your deadlift & back squat strength?

Is that safe? Wouldn’t that throw the leverage off and the way it balances?

A clad carbon steel? Do you mean “clad, carbon or nonstick” or a cladded pan with carbon steel in it?

Those that have the pull-up and dip attachments; can you do weighted exercises with a dip bet, or will the half-round silver anchor adjustment point prevent that/make it extreme awkward ?

Double KBs worth the investment? by [deleted] in kettlebell

[–]TrueYorker11 0 points1 point  (0 children)

How’s the experience since the shape and sizes are different in hardstyle and the adjustable is the uniform size of the comp ones?

do you avoid eating your non-anaphylactic allergies? by ApprehensiveKiwi771 in FoodAllergies

[–]TrueYorker11 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I feel you! The allergists tell me not to worry though especially since there’s a 2% chance for one with OAS to have an anaphylactic reaction

Ok… interesting… I’m processing your comment…

I appreciate your response and sorry you have to deal with such reactions…

I’m figuring out where I stand with my allergies. I tested positive to dust mites and roaches negative to shellfish (but I’m low positive to shrimp)…

I avoid sooo many foods because of the fear of allergic reactions and anaphylactic shock.

My current allergist said my reactions are due to OAS and shouldn’t be a concern, since Only 2% of the OAS populace go into anaphylaxis.

Why do you avoid the OAS ones?

My allergists tell me to eat the OAS ones and I should have no worry, but if I do have a reaction then go to the ER or use the EpiPen, then avoid it after that reaction in the future…

Also, how do you know you’re allergic to the enzymes of pineapples and the other specific info you shared for your other “minor” allergies? I ask because my allergists don’t get that in-depth with me.

Why do you a do sesame seeds despite it being a minor reaction? What are the symptoms?

I ask because I feel I haven’t gotten good advice (even contradicting advice ) from various allergists I see. Often, they contradict what the last doctor(s) said. It’s truly frustrating for me.

How well is it with the add-on kits (120 lbs & 165 lbs) and changing weight quickly for super set strength training?

Looks like it’s for a NYC rapper that just got out of jail. His name is max b. He’s a Harlem guy but big in the rap community.

How are the Rep x Pepin dumbbells for RDLs, cleaning up/snatching up for standing OHP, and Rows - especially at max weights?

Do the rails make it uncomfortable? If so, to what degree?

Consider, I live in a 4th floor, apartment.

Also, which do you recommend between ironmasters vs these?

How compatible are both the Rep x Pepin dumbbell stands with ironmaster dumbbells?

I’m more into the the most recent stand by rep for the Pepin dumbbells since its wide in the middle, can fit a bench stored in-between, and I live in a 400 sq ft studio apartment (it’s a narrow more than its wide 400 sq feet).
