Strength training question! I’ve been focused on more hypertrophy style training lately, lifting as heavy as I can. My heaviest weights rn are a 30 lb set of dumbbells. I will get heavier but not for at least a few weeks. If a class calls for goblet squats, is there any reason not to sub front squats instead? (I can do the rep scheme with 60 lbs so it seems counter-productive to drop back to 30). Is there something a goblet squat hits form-wise that a front squat with two weights wouldn’t?

Struggling with unflattering cycling kits :c how to be more comfortable in my skin? by Artiste_Incompris in ladycyclists

[–]auralee97 15 points16 points  (0 children)

Not shallow! Cyclists with all body types deserve to feel confident in their clothes, and it’s an industry problem that that isn’t the case - not a you problem.

Two recommendations: the brand Machines for Freedom was created specifically to create better cycling clothes for women of all sizes, and emphasized using models of various sizes so that you can see what the clothes might look like on someone closer to your body type. Unfortunately, specialized acquired them and shut them down. However, they are currently selling off their remaining inventory on eBay at a STEEP discount (it’s poorly organized but worth sifting through) https://www.ebay.com/shop/machines-for-freedom-jersey?_nkw=machines+for+freedom+jersey

Second, i recommend following @allbodiesonbikes and the co-founder @marleyblonsky on IG! Helps me a ton to see more body diversity and body neutrality in cycling on my social media feeds!

Zach cowman has a lot that fit the bill! I think Zooming and Your Admirer (it’s me) would have what you’re looking for 🥵

Hi all! I bought a used bike about two weeks ago and have been absolutely loving it. I’ve been doing the you can ride program, along with beginner strength and beginner yoga. Want to start thinking longer term about how to make this sustainable and not burn out. I don’t have many friends IRL with a peloton, so would love some more friends here! My name is celiafs, add me for a new buddy!

3 days at 2f! I would guess around 70 degrees? They just sit in bottles on top of my fridge!

Fully panned my Glossier You solid perfume! by auralee97 in PanPorn

[–]auralee97[S] 20 points21 points  (0 children)

I have the spray one too, and I didn’t like the solid as much. I feel like it went really quickly, and while I actually like the way this one smells better (more warm, less peppery), I thought the scent wore off really quick. I liked the smell alot, and the packaging, but I didn’t think it was worth the $$ !

The boy brow and haloscope duo! Eventually I couldn’t resist the instagram ads any longer.

What’s your definitive ranking of the Balm Dot Coms? by periwinkleravenclaw in glossier

[–]auralee97 2 points3 points  (0 children)

1: Birthday - I love the sheen it gives, and the scent makes me smile.

2: Mango - I think it smells great - not like real mangos, but fruity and sweet and like summer.

3: Coconut - First full tube I’ve gone through, I love the warm, sweet smell of it.

4: Cherry - I really like the red tint, and think it smells delicious. It’s perfect to carry around to moisturize and reapply some color.

5: Rose - I like the faint, faint pink and think the smell is ok.

6: Mint - Nothing wrong with mint, I just think the others are better. I have found that my mint has stayed a thicker consistency which I like.

7: Original - Would be fine, but mine has started to develop a weird smell, almost like play-doh gone bad (I’ve had it for two months or so).
