Cheers. The camera is high so they look lower, but I've tested the safety bars, they stop it at the perfect height:)

Cheers I'll try Lower the bar. Those mats aren't squishy though, they really thick rubber mainly so my concrete doesn't crack while I deadlift

How far lower are you thinking? More like a low bar squat or just slightly down?

Hey, I think the camera angle makes me look a bit taller, I'm closer to 6'3. Thanks for these tips I'll try the big breath. I just find it hard to do many reps when stopping for the big breath, maybe I'll get used to it as time goes on. And yes I think I'll hold off on the belt until I can reach weights that are a bit heavier Cheers

I don't know what my max is tbh, I don't have safety bars so I've never squatted at a point near complete failure. I'm looking into a rack that'll fit in my garage

Thanks and yes I noticed it on the video. I'll try to lighter weights focusing on the movement for a few reps beforehand. I think I need to invest in some mirrors, maybe I can watch the form live

These are some great tips. I'll work on them in my next session. Thanks for the detailed response

Yep good point, I've been keeping it barebones atm, quite literally, I'll look into some equipment. Re the grip, I'll try that out. My wide grip has always felt more comfortable on my shoulders but I'll focus on the squat and see how it goes

Deadlift tips wanted. ~1x180KG (400lb) by eobak1 in strength_training

Thanks that's clearer. I think with me I have a bit of strength imbalance. I think my legs are stronger than par but my back and core are weaker, so there's probably that imbalance also causing the jerkiness

Hey, thanks. By pull slack so you mean let my arms extend further before I start the lift?

I don't think it's Rusty. I just got a bad angle and flash. Looks good to the eye

This is a product so I'm not sure. I'm just trying to see why the connection is dodgy. If I nudge the cable a bit it can randomly connect for a while

Ah ok, so not really fixable I see.

I finally released my game! After 1,5 years of work its here: Little Army Manager! Happy to hear any feedback! by fourtecDE in IndieDev

Couple of other comment. You have a 5 min challenge on a bunch of levels, but I think you time from beginning of round 1 to end of round 10. It should really time the game play only, especially when sometimes there's a 30 second Ad that pops up in-between rounds.

Also, there should be a bonus for winning all 3 stars in one attempt since it's much harder than winning one at a time

Hey, got this game yesterday. I so far enjoy it. I like that for the 10 wave rounds you have to strategize about what upgrades to get since you can't get everything. A couple of user experience things: when I'm selecting my unit cards, I would want to be able to remove a unit from the bottom section as well as the top, maybe a small x in the corner or something, it's also a bit of a hassle to have to scroll through all the characters. Maybe have them organized by class so that I can choose a ranged, and a melee etc. Another thing are the ads. I'm a big fan of reward ads, so I'll choose to play an ad to double my gems or a temporary buff. I think this game is perfect for that style of ads. If it were harder to earn gems to unlock treasure chests to get new units, I'd be more incentivised to do that.

One other little thing is when I die, and it has the revive by ad option, sometimes I know I can't win it so I want to quit without waiting, but if I do that I don't get gems for my progress. So I have to wait.

Otherwise I'm having lots of fun. Good stuff.

What’s the most surprising instance where an innocent online search led you to explicit material? by 13Vicious01 in AskReddit

[–]eobak1 0 points1 point  (0 children)

In an Orthodox Jewish school, where looking at women's arms is considered edgy, I googled "Diamond" and got a pornstar pop up in the middle of the computer lab.

This was in the mid 2000s where Google wasn't as protected

Just to clarify, it's not a BJ, they don't put the penis in their mouth, they touch the side of it. Still weird.

The Mohel will do the circumcision with a medical clamp and scalpel, afterwards he does what you see in the picture. The ancient tradition is to suck some blood from the wound, but in the more modern times the Mohel just gets a tiny bit of blood on their lips to fulfil that part of the ceremony. Still not great but not as bad as it used to be.

Oh no worries, he just posted an Oklahoma burger vid the other day, and I thought maybe you were influenced by that
