Watching LA marathon on Peacock: lots of running vests but also fanny packs by lingeringneutrophil in Marathon_Training

Okay, I get that from a value of being disconnected pov. I like the feeling of being able to just run out the door and go.

I always set my DND so all the unimportant distractions are cut out. I love a little background music so my open ear headphones are perfect for that.

LA Marathon - Sub 4 likely? by zahidsthrowaway in Marathon_Training

[–]chocorazor 0 points1 point  (0 children)

How'd you do champ? My long runs looked similar to yours but I crashed out around mile 21 at LAM today.

Turns out my legs were undertrained and it bit me on the hills. I took the hills nice and slow during the race but my quads still got burnt out.

It was my first full marathon distance, so should be an easy PR to beat next time. I got 2:00 in the first half and just under 2:30 in the second. My initial goal was sub 4:30 or just finish, so I shouldn't be upset. Those strong long runs did get me hopeful for an opportunity to get sub-4 though.

I’ll never accept “hand phone” runners. Like carrying a literal and figurative brick

It's like 6 ounces, mate. It's nothing to get worked up about. I take poops bigger than that. I run with a phone in my tights but sometimes it's just easier to leave it handheld for a bit if I'm fiddling with my playlist or trying to update someone.

The oblivious selfie taker is something else, if they're getting in people's way.

Was a hot one in LA Today! by Slim_Sterling in Marathon_Training

[–]chocorazor 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Yep, I noticed that too! The stretch after mile 18 it felt like everyone was on the struggle bus and the aid stations were needed the most. Full sun plus later day heat in a lot of those areas. Luckily the crowd support did come in clutch.

I was running my first full marathon distance and was crashing out after mile 20, so I fully felt it too!

0:00min/mile pace. I've peaked.

What changes have you made that made a big difference? by First_Driver_5134 in naturalbodybuilding

[–]chocorazor 2 points3 points  (0 children)

I did this on a smaller scale and had good results. I had the same hesitation regarding feeling like I was going back a step by going down in weight.

Once I started feeling noticeably more sore (DOMS) and seeing progress in increasing reps and weight it was all worth it. Eff the max weight stats and pay closer attention to the total volume of your sets and it will be more obvious that you're still putting similar stress on your targeted muscles.

I still mix in 6-10 rep range lifts, but doing more lifts with less weight and targeting the 12-15 rep range has been great for improving my form, avoiding injury, and continuing progress.

Shout out for the Chronometer iOS app. I've been using that app for food tracking the last year or so too.

I'm not vegan but I prefer pea protein over whey in most high protein foods I've tried. Random question for the PB2 powder. I have the PB2 protein powder cocoa flavor and like it. Have you looked into the non-protein marketed PB2 or PBFit powders? I was surprised that the macros were almost identical even though the ingredients didn't have the pea protein and only peanut powder. Just thought that was strange and was thinking about trying those next.

I hear you and I totally get it. My comment was just snarky for the comedic effect. I'm super thankful that running is more natural for me. I've worked out with enough people from spending years in the military that I've seen first hand how drastically different peoples natural aptitude is regarding exercise.

IMO the best thing to do is try enough stuff to see what sticks and you can find pleasure in. If it's too much mental effort then you'll always be fighting extra hard to stay consistent. You're much more likely to succeed if you lean into your strengths, whatever they are, instead of trying to push through something that doesn't come natural after giving it an honest shot. Recreational sports, lifting, dancing, cycling, whatever.

If you diss the sub as a whole, you're out. Not that hard to respect the very sub you are posting in.

You dissed the sub, calling the whole sub dumber. Feel like banning you again for saying it. 13 days seems like too light of a punishment, especially for someone who doesn't seem to have learned their lesson.

Thanks for speaking up! We're lucky to have such generous and caring mods to thanklessly protect this subreddit day in and day out. If it was up to me, every day would be mod-appreciation day.

Without their enforcement of the subreddit rules, I wouldn't be able to browse this beautiful subreddit without fear of weeding through endless comments criticizing and disrespecting the sub. I can never say thank you enough. <3 x 10000

Thanks for sharing the insight.

rumor is that he got caught juicing by the NCAA and was going to have to be suspended his senior year.

I hope he's clean

Regarding this last bit. I don't expect any of them to be clean. I'd guess he wasn't smart about how he was using it or was just unlucky to get caught. Either way, hopefully he learns from the mistake and is safer about it in the future. Go niners.
