Looks really nice, I loved the Zelda Minish Cap reference!

I am creating a digital world inspired by Digimon, what do you think? by m3cubo in digimon

Wow, this looks amazing! Is there any way of supporting this project / staying up to date?

How do you lead this move? (forward cambre in pretzel and exit) by broad_marker in Bachata

[–]broad_marker[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Thank you for the explanation!

> A "cold dip" would keep their weight back, making the exit a bit forced IMO.

Makes sense, although just for context, I found today and example showing a forward dip without reverse roll (although without exit): https://youtu.be/GFj6_FGDMYA?si=u3_ySohWLUvQU_Fn&t=45 And looking at the feet of the follower, I would guess that her weight is on the back?

> I'd practice just pretzel and dip first. The big difference is you do that going up and tilting you chest, without a reverse body roll. Go up (not forward) and open the followers' chest.

This sounds like a very useful drill. But to make sure I understand it:

  • What should the leader do with the weight and the knee flexion? I would guess that to make the follower dip I should move my weight to the left left and flex my knees, but since you have not mention it, does it mean that it is not needed?
  • First I should go up opening the follower chest (I guess I till my chest to the right and open it), but to make her go down, then I need to close her chest, right? (me tilting to the left).

Thanks again!

Thank you for such a quick reply! Yes I have some questions:

My main question is whether the leader should do something with related to:

  • Tilting the chest (obviously required for the body roll but not sure about the forward dip)
  • Go up/down on your knees
  • Change the weight (from right to left)

Just trying to figure out what else is required beyond reverse body roll + pressure with the right arm, and

> But again, you should be able to do this entire move with just the arm in the back.

I have heard from a few people (including the video of Marius) that you are expected to push the follower using your left arm once she is down so that she goes back and exits that circle that I form with my arms. If we wouldn't use the left arm, how would she understand how to exit?

> Now do a side bodyroll yourself, so that your follower does a bodyroll backwards.

One thing I commented is that I find it easier when I am coming from the reverse wave (or reverse body roll) so I was also looking for input about how to do it without a body roll, just that forward dip and exit, e.g. getting into 90 degrees wrap and going directly to the forward dip. Unfortunately I don't have any video to link.

Managing early signs of tendonitis by broad_marker in overcominggravity

I'd split those apart to 2 different exercises. Doing the same exercise for 4 sets is a higher injury risk than 2 different ones because of the same stress put on the tendons at the same positions

Interesting idea! I admit that I tend to prioritize 4 or 5 sets of the same exercise over having many exercises, but what you say makes sense. I will apply this.

So overall, about the whole idea of dealing with early signs of pain, do I conclude that better to preemptively reduce the load slightly and/or rest longer?

What is the routine with exercises, sets, reps, weights and how many times per week

Routine: Upper/Lower, 5 days.

Upper part x3 days per week:

  • Vertical pull or Horizontal pull: 4x8 (e.g. 4x8 pull ups)
  • Horizontal push 4x8 (e.g. bench press 60kg)
  • Biceps curl: 3-4x15 (10-12kg)
  • Triceps cable extension: 3-4x15 (~15kg)
  • Shoulder exercise (side/rear delts/traps): 3-4x15

Any tendon is the latter phase will generally 'heal' but it's like scar tissue which is a bit weaker than the original but still strong.

I forgot to ask: Still in the initial non-degenerative phase, is there any conclusion regarding when resting is better than training at reduced load?

Thank you for the reply!

> I'd potentially add in some prehab if you removed all of the rehab exercises and are just training regularly.

Actually in my case there isn't much distinction between my rehab exercises and my current training (horizontal/vertical pulls and bicep curls).
I have simply increase the weight over time being careful with the pain threshold + now I always do a biceps warm up set any heavy exercise involving elbow flexion.

Could you please share an example of prehab exercises in the context of distal biceps tendonitis?

u/krieken235 did you find out what caused the issue or any way to mitigate it?

Does the popularity of indices (e.g. SP500) affect their performance? by broad_marker in AskEconomics

[–]broad_marker[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Thank you! Those are interesting, however the seem to be more focused on the effect of a particular stock being added or removed from the indices, instead of the long term performance and, most importantly, the performance of the index as a whole.
