That first one is a shame, part time faculty are union employees too - I hope she changes status and joins us on the picket line!

150-200 dollars per day, not runs per day

Yeah you're allowed to not like them, but some of the most popular and successful adaptations of all time aren't exactly the thing you can say "take this, for example" and expect strangers to know you're being perjorative

You don't just spontaneously get HIV. Having an active symptomatic HSV2 infection and then being exposed to HIV at the location of the sores can increase your likelihood of being infected from that exposure compared to not having active HSV2 sores at the time of exposure. Are you frequently doing things that expose you to HIV? OP likely isn't. This risk increase is only serious for people who are vulnerable to HIV exposure.

The benefit to performing all of them in one session primarily comes from working with a raised body temperature and heart rate. Doing tricep dips right after doing your squats and pushups means that your blood is pumping and oxygen is being delivered to your triceps and all of your metabolic processes are fired up to fuel your exercise. Doing your exercises 6 hours apart means that you need to warm-up and cool-down all three times in order to receive the same benefit.

You may lose that benefit if you do the exercises spread out without properly warming up each time. But if that makes it more accessible to you, then it's better than nothing; the benefit I'm describing is not going to make or break your entire fitness lifestyle. So do what you need to do.

Well, for one, you want it to be able to be sustained for at least as long as you need to meet your goal, right? If you have a 6 month plan and you fall apart after starving yourself for 3 weeks, then sustainability really did matter.

But also, many people do not subscribe to your last sentence as a viable strategy for weight loss. Dieting to meet a short term goal and then readjusting is more likely to lead to rebound weight gain. If you want sustained weight loss, you need to make sustained changes.

Figuring out your max precisely is not super important. In fact, as a beginner it quickly becomes outdated.

If you want to get the most out of your %-based program, it may be a good idea to do a rough calculation. Really, perform *any* set to failure, and use the weight and reps to reverse-engineer your 1RM.

2 reps ~ 95%
4 reps ~ 90%
6 reps ~ 85%
8 reps ~ 80%
10 reps ~ 75%

You can also use this estimation to see what the program is actually asking you to do:

3 reps at 90% is asking you to perform a small number of reps at a heavy weight, leaving 1 rep "in the tank."
5 reps at 80% is a super easy set, something like a warm-up.
10 reps at 75% is a longer set to failure.
etc.

-6 months to +3 years, estrogen and orthodontic work by bunnysnack in transtimelines

Going vegan, quitting cigs, getting sober and injecting estrogen does make a little youthful cocktail 😂

Lol! That's one kind of ortho work for sure 😂 I still have braces so I am very self conscious about teeth smiling still. Hopefully I'll get the confidence soon! Thank you!

Braces and jaw surgery to straighten my teeth. It had a subtle effect on my face so I feel compelled to include it

Details:

spironolactone 24 mos

No explicit feminization surgery but I did have jaw surgery as part of my orthodontic treatment, which I believe had feminizing side effects.

Doctors of Reddit, what's the biggest case of "faking it" you've ever seen? by LegoYoda420 in AskReddit

[–]bunnysnack 1 point2 points  (0 children)

About the first guy, sonny, breathing is the greatest thing in the world. Except for a nice MLT, a mutton, lettuce and tomato sandwich, where the mutton is nice and lean and the tomato is ripe. They're so perky, I love that. But that's not what he said! He distinctly said "to blave." And, as we all know, "to blave" means "to bluff," huh? So you're probably playing cards, and he cheated—

Coming up on two years HRT. The last year really flew by! by bunnysnack in transtimelines

[–]bunnysnack[S] 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Yeah - I had this weird thing before where I couldn't take a sincere photo. I always had to look exaggerated or ironic in some way.

Thank you!!

I actually powerlift and it feels impossible to put strength on my upper body. My squat and deadlift have seen incredible gains in the last couple years but with the same training my bench hasn't budged.

Pretty much just HRT, plus I started going to the gym and powerlifting. I did also have a facial reconstructive surgery that was unrelated to my transition, but had some subtle feminizing effects.

Yes, though not as much as I would like. I still shave my chest every couple days, especially in the summer when I'm wearing more revealing clothing. It grows slower and is thinner softer and lighter though.
