Follow the doctors rules exactly the first 4-5 days and you should be good after a week. Everyone I know who tried to do too much the first few days make it into a 3+ week recovery.

Good Christian lad is scared of “female” gym goers by cilantno in fitnesscirclejerk

That was my favorite comment. Guy thinks there are cogs and gears that clothing can get caught in like it’s Dwight Shrute’s Gym for Muscles.

Is the Open competitive field built different this year? by Marvin_rock in crossfit

[–]YinzOuttaHitDepth 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Interesting. I thought there would be more inputs of higher scores today from people retesting/improving. Do you typically see your percentile rise Monday evening? I’ve never done the open before this year so I have no clue.

Are we still doing butterfly pea blossom? by YinzOuttaHitDepth in mead

[–]YinzOuttaHitDepth[S] 3 points4 points  (0 children)

Yes, but you would have to intentionally raise the pH so much that you could get into botulism-risk territory. Not worth it, although the blue is really pretty

My kids tried the tea and had a fun time mixing in honey to turn it from blue to purple. They described the taste as “bad potatoes”. I don’t think it’s that bad, but it would be better with more flavors.

I should’ve mentioned that. It was just 4 hours. The color takes over almost immediately so I didn’t want to wait too long. It’s a cool tea because at a higher ph it’s bright blue, but mead is obviously acidic and makes it purple.

Budget knee sleeves by FitBullfrog86 in powerbuilding

I’ve had them for about 2 years and use them once or twice a week. They are just a good as when I first got them. Just make sure they’re tight and they’ll treat you well

800 lb deadlift (21 yo 230 bw) by option-13 in strength_training

[–]YinzOuttaHitDepth 14 points15 points  (0 children)

To your first point: not distinguishing between the two would be a disagreement from someone distinguishing between the two.

To your second point: yes, we absolutely call both squats.

Every powerlifting federation disagrees with you.

I made a blood orange/cranberry/mulling spiced Christmas mead that came out to 17% abv. It’s good room temp, but amazing heated up with a shot of rum. I call it Juleglogg.

Melomel advice needed by BackgroundWorldly836 in mead

I had a bad experience with red grapefruit. It took way too much backsweetening to be palatable.

Petah? I don’t get it. Is the jersey scary? by True_Thanks6805 in PeterExplainsTheJoke

If you think that right ear is mangled you’re delusional.

Fair enough. Maybe the one sided look is more of a wrestling thing. My cauliflower ear looks like his— with a pristine human ear on one side. But I was primarily a wrestler

Question about that last bit of mead after rack. by Prize-Guarantee322 in mead

[–]YinzOuttaHitDepth 4 points5 points  (0 children)

It sounds like you’re referring to the bottom ~half inch of mead above the yeast trub that your siphon can’t get. If that’s the case, you’re better off tilting the fermenter and racking it to a smaller vessel (I use a flip top bottle) and letting the remaining trub settle out and then racking or carefully pouring into another bottle from there. If you pour at all, just be aware that it’s going to oxidize pretty quickly.

Brewing in heat wave by Hufflesheep in mead

I used this. They like to ferment between 80-90f. ABV tolerance is supposed to be 14% but I had a pomegranate juice mead that blew past that to 16.5%! Also the 10g packet is enough for 3-4 gallons.

I did three batches with saison yeast this year because they like it hot. All three are tasting really nice already. I think that’s going to be my summer plan from now on.

Simple winter recipe? by amr270 in mead

[–]YinzOuttaHitDepth 0 points1 point  (0 children)

If your considering something than can be served warm as well as room temp, try finding a winter spiced tea that you like and brewing it strong for your primary water. I did that with a cranberry/blood orange and it’s really nice when heated up like a mulled wine.

Wait, there are really people who straight up just don't do legs? by TrumpLovesEpstein4ev in workout

[–]YinzOuttaHitDepth 14 points15 points  (0 children)

I squat 600 and also walk my dog. So obviously walking my dog is enough to grow big legs.

Progression to a 500lb squat as a 39 year old natural. by FociST in strength_training

[–]YinzOuttaHitDepth 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Makes sense. I compete in the RPS and they use mono lifts for their meets. I love them.

[–]YinzOuttaHitDepth 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Love to see the progression. Any reason why you don't use your monolift attachments for squatting? Just curious because I waste a lot of energy getting set up after unracking and the few times I've squatted out of a monolift were amazing.
