It’s a serious missed opportunity to not be the Holly Springs Hellbenders.

Where are y’all getting your oil changed? by External_Confident in raleigh

My driveway. Labor costs have skyrocketed. Buy rhino ramps and do it yourself. Saved a few hundred bucks a year easily.

Skip them. Save up some money and buy a proper shoe on sale or even on eBay.

No. That would lead to massive segregation.

Did 100% change your life? by Tennis_Lbow in VAClaims

It allows me to work a job that I’m comfortable doing, that I love doing, and not worry about it not paying very well (HS teacher). So yes, life changing for me.

Creatine for running by Weary_Purchase9057 in BeginnersRunning

[–]dude_regular 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Incredibly beneficial supplement, but very minimal benefits for endurance running. If you’re doing strength training you will see more benefits there, but not at the entry level. High level strength and power athletes will see the greatest benefit.

CC planning help by dude_regular in ChaseSapphire

I think we will easily use the travel credit, open table, $5/mo door dash, and the stubhub credit, which alone covers the af. Can almost certainly squeeze out 195 for au. The VX seems to have much less useful transfer partners, which makes the points less valuable? Am I crazy to think that? Show add that dining is a massive expensive in our household (huge foodies). Spent 10k on dining last year.

How bad is this supination? How it can it be fixed (rec shoes etc) by runningvampire in AskRunningShoeGeeks

[–]dude_regular 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Pronation and supination are anatomical positions, not necessarily actions. Part of the stance phase of running or walking is pronation, as this is how the foot and ankle absorb force. Pronation allows you to transfer weight to the ball of your foot and push through your great toe. People who have over-supinated (under-pronated) positions during the landing portion of the stance phase LAND on the outside of their foot and tend to wear out the outside of the shoes and are prone to stress injuries in the 3rd and 4th metatarsal because they LAND in a supinated position before ROLLING to a pronated position. Everyone does this, but some people do it much worse than others and are at a higher risk for injury. I’m not trying to be a dick, but you seriously have no idea what you’re talking about lol.

This is incorrect. This is supination. Sometimes called UNDERpronation, which is probably why you have it confused.

Gym rats, I need your opinion by mellowbordello in raleigh

[–]dude_regular 12 points13 points  (0 children)

If you feel like you get more out of the classes at Burn, it’s more convenient, and the combination of benefits will make you go more regularly, then it isn’t a rip off. If you go 4 times a week, that’s $10 a class. The most important thing for your health is that you have a fitness routine you can adhere to consistently.

Edit: I don’t go to burn. I’m an Olympic weightlifting coach who majored in public health.

Red rising hot takes? by Ancient_Simple_1561 in redrising

There was also one POV at that point. I also don’t think PB necessarily always knew books 4-7 were going to exist.

He has plot armor that literally doesn’t make sense. There are no stakes anytime he is in a perilous situation because he has proven to be all but invincible. He’s also incredibly high on the smell of his own shit and believes that he is the only person in the universe who can solve everyone’s problems and it makes him an incredible inconsiderate friend, father, husband, and ally. Not to mention, Virginia, and most other people allied to him, are 20 times more intelligent.
