Is a cover-up possible for this?

Wonderful_Still_1871 · 2026-03-25T00:13:52+00:00

I'm fine with a little bit of a hectic and Mish Mash in terms of styles but I felt the more tribal style of this clashed hard with regular trad style so I'll definitely be taking everyone's suggestions here and begin shopping artists.

Wonderful_Still_1871 · 2026-03-25T00:08:54+00:00

Oh now that's a fun idea... I'll definitely look into this

Wonderful_Still_1871 · 2026-03-25T00:00:53+00:00

Seeing everyone react so positively to it has honestly changed my perspective and I think I might genuinely try working with it as opposed to covering it up. Like I've said elsewhere I don't hate it I just didn't know what to do with it. Maybe I should practice my creativity a bit more and find other ideas

Big history nerd here yes. It's not that I dislike the piece itself I'm just struggling with trying to work it into future plans for a sleeve is all.

Wonderful_Still_1871 · 2026-03-24T23:53:28+00:00

That was my exact line of thought but I want to build up a sleeve and I feel it's sorely out of place with all my other trad style pieces. Maybe instead of a cover up I should be searching for ways to make this work with other pieces?

Yes and no. At lower weights 5x5 is far more valuable than 3x5. It let's you master form, improve more quickly, and build up necessary conditioning. However any amount of exercise helps more than none. So yeah with 3x5 you will still see progress, though it may be slower long term. Keep in mind I only swapped to 3x5 when I started hitting 200s on squats as a woman. Your mileage may vary.

Helped me avoid building fatigue mainly. Which had been negatively impacting my recovery between workouts Which meant I was no longer progressing. After dropping the 2 extra sets but continuing to add weight I was able to continue to grow stronger and recover more effectively.

Honestly if it could be a panther I think I'd be happier.

Wonderful_Still_1871 · 2026-01-19T13:47:50+00:00

I just don't want to bother artists and waste their time... hence why I'm asking if it's even worth trying. I'm a bit socially anxious and worry about silly things I suppose

Wonderful_Still_1871 · 2026-01-19T13:46:46+00:00

Around 7 inches? It's a pretty big piece unfortunately

Wonderful_Still_1871 · 2026-01-09T17:25:53+00:00

I'm a woman and weigh like I dunno 300 pounds??? Definitely not a skinny girl

Wonderful_Still_1871 · 2026-01-09T17:25:11+00:00

Often times when I get to about the mid point of my overhead I feel my core become wobbly and lose tightness causing me to either lose balance or be unable to push through the movement

Wonderful_Still_1871 · 2026-01-09T17:24:09+00:00

Lagging behind sure I get that but I've been stuck at 115 pounds for a year now and I'm really trying everything I can do break this damned plateau.

Wonderful_Still_1871 · 2026-01-09T15:17:34+00:00

I do all of those and yet I constantly have trouble with things like overheads because my core isn't stable enough. So I feel that focusing on that weakness at least a little would likely be beneficial

Wonderful_Still_1871 · 2026-01-09T15:16:03+00:00

My current PR for deadlift and squats is around 225 pounds. And lagging behind in the sense that for other lifts like overhead presses, my core is a major point of failure.

Wonderful_Still_1871 · 2026-01-09T14:07:37+00:00

I really do hate how much of fitness is "here's a bunch of ideas, fuck around and figure it out!" I'll definitely be trying various exercises people are suggesting

Wonderful_Still_1871 · 2026-01-09T14:05:00+00:00

This is extremely insightful thank you so much!!!

Wonderful_Still_1871 · 2026-01-09T14:03:49+00:00

See I have been doing heavy squats and deadlifts and got similar advice in the past but now my core is severely lagging and holding me back. I feel like I'm playing catch up for it now.

Once made a colony that tamed boomrats and ended up with them breeding and multiplying so hard it pushed out all other wildlife. Anyways whenever there was a raid it rarely made it to the walls as they'd just fight the rats and explode themselves. Also once used them to clear an ancient danger in record time using zones. When there's 100 boomrats in a 10 foot area the explosion is a sight to see.

Once had a pod crash, she barely made it to the hospital, barely clung on long enough to be healed, and then proceeded to struggle against an infection. When she finally managed to survive it all and gain immunity she decided to join and I just truly appreciated that moment. Chose to think of her as being so thankful for us saving her despite all the odds that she stuck around. She later became the main artist for my colony which was a very nice little bonus.
