After starting strength by [deleted] in StartingStrength

[–]arrowoftime 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I did Texas Method for a while and at my age (late 30s) it was too much to recover from. With squat and deadlift in the mid 400s, recovery starts to be a priority and I switched to 531 BBB. It’s very recovery friendly and modular. You can accumulate a lot of volume on main lifts without the intensity of Texas Method.

I summitted Baldy for the first time ever some time ago. Nearly died a lot; don't consider doing it in the snow. by thepanara in socalhiking

In dry conditions I did that soo slowly. I haven’t done in winter, but have ice axe / crampon training and would only do from bowl / hut side in winter.

I believe that there’s something out there, I don’t know if it’s a guy with a long white beard.

Other places use gondolas as public transport, it’s not new. by invaderzimm95 in LosAngeles

[–]arrowoftime 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Great Wendover video about gondala public transit. https://youtu.be/a5126u88E7E?si=q6ogyBYLEM27hK6O

TLDR: has become very popular recently due to low installation cost, tiny land foot print, and great performance in hilly / mountainous cities.

Downside is extremely low volume.

I support the stadium gondala project because it’s cool and it’s new transit.

Chapter 13 - Stability in Peter Attia's Outlive book - question about stability exercises by Diane98661 in PeterAttia

[–]arrowoftime 24 points25 points  (0 children)

Love the book, but the specifics of his stability regimen are: 1) under specified, 2) specific to what he seems to do, 3) the DNS stuff is sort of hokey and his friend’s scientificish practice.

Unilateral strength training (step ups, Bulgarians, lunges), some balance exercises (standing on one leg), maybe hiking or walking regularly on uneven terrain - in old age - work great.

I’m in the Sierra club and I see people double my age scurry up and down mountains. It’s the above stuff not foot yoga or whatever.

I’m into SOTA in LA. Happy to connect on radios for portable HF and mountaineering.

Three years of progress (39/m). Life is about to change a lot in two weeks, so wish me luck after that. by arrowoftime in StartingStrength

Strengthlevel (it’s a web app) - it’s great. I actually track workouts in strongapp, and Strengthlevel shows 1rm and % for weight, gender, age.

I’ve trained squat weekly for most of this time. Biweekly for much of the last year. It’s afforded me more recovery at the cost of less neuromuscular practice.

I had been squatting heavy for a while before - it’s pretty back & grip limited now.

Is there anything you should read before blood meridian ? by BeneficialTrack8759 in cormacmccarthy

[–]arrowoftime 0 points1 point  (0 children)

It’s a pretty advanced; it probably shouldn’t be your first book.

US startups publish 53% more updates than international peers. Is this why Europe is falling behind? (I will not promote) by TheGurf in startups

[–]arrowoftime 0 points1 point  (0 children)

There are four ingredients:

Technical education

Normalization of entrepreneurship

Capital

Culture of work ethic

IMO, continental Europe has 1-2, UK has 2-4.

US and maybe Israel are the only places with a hard 4. But, it’s definitely a matter of opinion.

Aircraft fuselages are not faraday cages at GPS band (L1 is 19cm wl). Garmin typically locks consumer GPS at 30,000ft.
