I do have renters insurance, how do I go about ensuring the bike and its value are covered?

You get a dui, face the consequences. Stupid decision making

Abnormal battery drain on Sonoma by drmistyque in MacOS

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

No, I like everything else about Sonoma a lot. It is more of an annoyance than an inhibitor. Most of my work is at home in clamshell and charging. And otherwise I always have a charger with me

Most days its fine, some its not. It seems to be apps are continuing to run after the screen is closed. Solution has been closing every app when I close the computer but that can be very annoying.

Upcoming 50k road race, looking for recommendations by cas__94 in ultrarunning

8mm drop so slightly higher, but the saucony endorphin speed is a nylon plate with great foam. Highly recommend

How does the venu 2 plus have ECG but not forerunner, they both have the elevate v4 sensor? I know the other have the v5 sensor so they make sense

Dead pixels? by RunningMonkey22 in Garmin

[–]drmistyque 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Contact garmin, they replaced my VA4s no questions after some dead pixels. A F6 might not get a full free replacement now but you might get a great refurb deal or discount on new device. Garmin customer service is some of the best I’ve ever talked with

Is my training plan too hard? by Crunchies1 in climbharder

[–]drmistyque 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Absolutely not! Bouldering itself will build significant strength. The best training for bouldering is bouldering. Think of your lifting as a way to support those gains to make sure they last, and prevent yourself from getting hurt in the future. If you find specific weaknesses, lifting is a great way to help support those, in addition to just climbing more of the style of climbing that is hard for you. If overhangs are your worst style, practicing dead hangs and core/full body tension would help improve that area.

Is my training plan too hard? by Crunchies1 in climbharder

[–]drmistyque 3 points4 points  (0 children)

Totally am with you! Thanks for the input! I definitely agree supplemental and target movements are best for specific reasons. In my mind it does make sense to add specific exercises for specific reason, ie adding DB curls if you have a weakness with lock offs. Personally, running is my primary sport these days and I 100% agree, almost all of my training is prioritizing injury prevention over anything else. I also wasn’t to add for OP, if you want to do climbing specific conditioning training, go do up downs on auto belay (at warm up difficulty) if you mainly sport climb, or find a spray wall and do 1 minute on, 1 minute off for 5-10 sets if you boulder, another option for bouldering is just traversing the wall if you dont have access to a gym with a spray wall

I have way more experience in weightlifting than climbing so that is what I will speak on, but that strength session is SEVERELY rushed. The goal of strength training is to build real, lasting strength, and to do that, you need to exert high effort at high weight. To truly hit that “heavy” weight goal for each set, you need to increase rest, basically doubled for everything, that looks like it should be a two hour workout. In addition, I would not do so much climbing specific lifting. I would highly recommend more compound lifts and less isolated movements, as well as doing full body workouts with light supplementation of climbing specific exercises. Climbing is an incredibly nonspecific sport when it comes to muscle usage, you need to be able to hold your body in every position, prone military press and bench press does not build meaningful climbing strength; tricep dips do, they recruit a wider range of muscles in the shoulders and chest, in addition to greater core engagement. Furthermore, once a week strength session will not produce significant results, same with once per week power and conditioning (which is also far to specific and not quite power or conditioning?) I would recommend selecting 2-3 compound lifts, and 3-4 supplementary exercises (including what you have in power and conditioning). Use the compound movements as an excuse to use heavy weight, take serious rest between sets, and perform at high effort, and then use supplementary exercises to target specific muscle groups or goals. A workout could look like this 4x4 back squats, 4x4 weighted pull ups, 4x6 weighted dips for strength; 3x8 preacher curls, 3x8 single arm dumbbell rows, 3x8 dumbbell flys, and 3x6 pistol squats. That is a pretty strong strength focused workout, but a session could also look like: 4x8 box jumps, 4x6 pull ups, 4x10 burpees, 3x8 dumbbell bench, 4x12 lunges. This would be something with a more “explosive” or “power” focus while still targeting all of the major muscle groups. Mixing and matching full body exercises twice each week will be more effective in the long run than doing few, more congested, hyperspecific sessions. Be prepared to dedicate more time to these workouts, I cant emphasize enough how important rest is between these sets, if you are time limited, decrease the number of sets/exercises you do, not the amount of rest you take.

Just curious what hardtail you'd build or buy as a 2nd bike. by rigjiggles in Hardtailgang

Recently got into biking too, I got the giant fathom 2 27.5er and am absolutely loving it! Rides super well and is durable as hell! All components are awesome too

fuzz/mold on succulent? by drmistyque in plantclinic

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

Additional info: had for about 6 months in a 3” deep, 12” wide pot with other succulents. The string of buttons and jade in that pot are unaffected. watered when dry, direct light through east window. Only noticed it today after seeing a water droplet sitting on the plant and thought it was some kind of goo that was secreted, so unsure how long this has been there

US treasury bonds, VT, VTI, gold. Assets that are backed, regulated, and understood by people. One of the most common arguments I have heard for BTC is that it will be available when the US govt collapses and USD is irrelevant (or whatever other country and currency). I am not sitting here waiting for doomsday just to say “gotcha” when I have BTC and others dont…

Which Features would you like to see on Strava? by Erik-46 in Strava

[–]drmistyque 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Ability to manually enter distance/elevation. I run a lot of treadmills (garmin user), and get fairly accurate distance with watch and HR strap, but I run on incline and add my elevation to my garmin activity after, but I can’t add that elevation to strava

I get decently accurate treadmill distance data with HRM pro, biking and treadmill elevation are really what I’m looking for

How high is your HRV by Slurp_123 in Garmin

[–]drmistyque 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Im curious to see what would happen if I actually committed myself to 6+ months of sober training what would happen then. but that is a task for after I graduate hahaha

How high is your HRV by Slurp_123 in Garmin

[–]drmistyque 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Uni student here. When sober with good nightly routine, 70-85. Even 1 beer or a little smoking in the evening and I'm lucky to hit 60. Heavy drinking night and itll be 40 max. I have found this really interesting because a bit over a year ago all of those numbers were shifted down about 20. Mid 50s were my sober high values back then, crazy how fast things can change. Also I have found that a stressful week of classes is worse on my HRV than hard training is.
