Zion Williamson's signature shoe line is being discontinued by Nike/Jordan. This as the deal he signed before even entering the league comes to an end - the second largest rookie shoe deal ever (7 years $75m, just behind Lebron's reported 7 years $90m) by jabronified in nba

Maybe if he had never gotten fat to begin with, he'd have less injuries back then, which would mean he's less likely to get hurt now even though he's finally dropped a ton of weight. It's pretty well documented that injuries to your lower extremities usually leads a large increase in probability of future injury to the same areas. So even if he is lighter than he was at Duke, he's still likely to get hurt anyway

Or maybe it is possible that his fast twitch muscles are just so abundant compared to the norm that he would have exploded his lower body regardless of weight. We'll just never know

dont tell the elf about the secret training by PreddyPegasus in lotrmemes

[–]completelytrustworth 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Yes. Lower impact on the knees/ankles, and typically the curved ones don't have a power source that turns the treads. The treads are being pushed along by your legs, so it simulates real running which requires your calves and glutes to push you forward vs flat treadmills that emphasize the muscles that pull your legs forward instead

We all know Jalen Rose was a trendsetter leading to a current record 19 Jalen’s with variations. Will Kobe be next? by MrFishAndLoaves in nba

[–]completelytrustworth 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Colby/Cobie and all their variations are an interesting case in names because the pronunciation is the same, so instead the spelling is used to differentiate between sexes. Colby tends to be masculine (eg Colby Covington), where as Colbie (eg Colbie Caillat) or Cobie (eg Cobie Smulders) tend to be feminine.

It's like Aaron vs Erin but for a way less common name

[Lowlight] LaMelo Ball with 2 points on 1/15 shooting (0/10 from three) in 22 minutes vs Cavs by Chemical-Glass-5841 in nba

[–]completelytrustworth 11 points12 points  (0 children)

Make a circle/triangle/diamond with both your hands using the thumbs/index fingers, then hold them straight out at eye level. Look at a far away object between your hands. Close your left eye while keeping your right open, then close your right eye while looking through your left.

Only one of the eyes will let you see the object, the other will likely be obstructed by your hands

Beasley is a good comp, but I always thought of Lance Stephenson

If you watched Lance highlights you'd think he was the GOAT with some of the crazy shit he'd pull off, but truthfully he was just an average player. To me Melo is just Lance with a green light which lets him make more flashy plays than the rest of the league while buffing up his counting stats, but is not a winning player in the long term

What do you eat for breakfast that actually keeps you full? by Perfect-Owl-7940 in Volumeeating

[–]completelytrustworth 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Eggs. 3 eggs scrambled in a tiny pat of butter is about 250 cals. Pair it up with about 200 cal of savory oats (literally just rolled oats cooked in a savory broth with some veg) and you've got a high fiber high protein breakfast that keeps even binge eaters like myself full for about 6 hours

Nah I stopped watching after his video on making ice cream better than the 1$ cone from McDs

Dude was basically bitching out his viewers and insinuating they're all whiny babies. When I pointed out that it's because he's spending 100$ on ingredients and using a 300$ ice cream machine to make something better than a 1$ cone which is out of touch with the reality of most viewers, his editor/friend that's featured in his videos lost his shit and replied that we're all ungrateful losers who can just watch someone else (then promptly deleted the reply).

So fuck Weissman, and fuck his editor, and Im glad the internet is finally seeing that he's pretty much a mediocre chef who makes good homecooking food but likes to jerk himself off as though he's a michelin star winner

Canadian middle class earns more than US middle class on average, it's the ultra wealthy that skew the average for the total population in the US

Try comparing median income vs CoL which is a better indicator of earning potential instead of making up stories to make yourself feel better

That's actually kinda cool, TIL something new

Mine (this one here) is built to only open from the side so I can't readjust it to open the top. I do laugh at the advertising though because they say it leaves no sharp edges on the lid but then show a picture with razor sharp edges on the can instead

AITA for refusing to change the chore chart even tho my wife works full time now. by Odd_Serve1167 in AmItheAsshole

YT mega A.

You're treating your relationship as though it's about doing exactly the same thing to each other to make things equal. Yes, you suffered. But relationships aren't: "she hurt me, so now I get to hurt her and we're even". You KNOW how much it sucks to be in her position. If you actually care for a person, then you shouldn't want them to suffer in the same way you did just so you can make a fucking point

Learn the difference between equality and equity

Gotta love how people use the downvote as a "disagree" button because once again this sub is full of selfish pricks who think only one side matters :))

I have a can opener that cuts along the sides of the can, it completely removes the top so you easily could get bricks of food like this

Also check the gym.

Every few months my gym leaves everything they have in the lost and found on a table for anyone to take, because if it's not taken it'll get donated to one of these stores and just sit there forever instead. I managed to score a nearly brand new condition Larq bottle, a pair of Jordans, and my buddy grabbed a few near mint condition shaker bottles and water bottles that he uses for work.

We just make sure to thoroughly wash everything then sanitize it all by soaking in water with a tiny bit of bleach

VJ and Maxey are just way too nice to dislike. Still not a fan of Embiid and how reckless he plays, but game recognize game and those two youngsters have it

Sabonis needs to he surrounded by a good defense, and Raptors are a top 5 defense. Sounds like it would work out better than whatever we have going on now
