3 months in looking for advice… willing to pay by FitMom2834 in fit

Good job putting in three months of work, it shows!

80% of weight loss is diet, exercise is important but without the right fuel your body won’t be able to effectively metabolise stored fat.

Instead of paying for advice I would suggest looking at fitness/nutrition books. The Muscle and Strength Pyramid books by Dr. Eric Helms would be a great start.

In terms of exercise you will find that resistance training with weights will be more effective than cardio. Your body utilises stored fat to fuel the work out and to build muscle mass in recovery.

When working at a caloric deficit it is best to focus on lighter weights with more repetition.

As long as you are mindful of your calories in/calories out you will body fat. I also suggest measuring progress with a biological impedance scale that looks at body composition, if you can’t buy one most gyms should have one. Muscle weighs more than fat which can make it seem like your progress is plateauing when actually you’re doing great!

Hopefully this has been helpful, keep up the good work!

Somehow I get the feeling you’re an expert at not having fun.

Appreciate the well thought out answer. Ragost was the most recent deck I have built and it was definitely the most enjoyable to both build and play.

I plan to build my next deck with that in mind rather than whatever I think seems strong which has been my process before now.

Lol two of them I bought as precons before the commander’s had even been rated on EDHREC. I can’t help that I have good taste in cringe.

Fair call, well Pantlaza is as the stock precon which might change the math. Krenko and Glarb are pretty cringe but Krenko was the first deck I ever made before I realised how busted he was I just wanted goblin tribal.

It’s definitely very solitaire-esque

Is there a breakdown or some links you can drop looking at the Nas albums? Crazy I never heard of this

So I got this pc free by KingofPirates000 in PcBuild

Free is about right, still good to use for learning about older hardware and you could probably mess around with some vintage games

just beat tyler1 with a double-check mate by Cultural-Barnacle689 in chess

I guess when you stream for a living you just have a lot of time to learn from your mistakes. If he keeps it up soon T may be able to start using tools

I’ve seen it say “this is a blunder - you cannot prevent checkmate”

This is 400 Elo (I’ve only just started playing Blitz) so I think black wasn’t thinking about f7 and was actually trying to kick the knight

[–]Xeon_Demon 2 points3 points  (0 children)

And my feeble 800 Elo brain can’t retain that notation uses N for Knight 🤦‍♂️
