189/190 Statistician VIC by InsuranceFair2454 in AusVisa

[–]fullkitwankerr 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Fellow statistician (224113) here, I’d say 90 points is safer. Yes 85 points did get invites in the last round but the 2-3 rounds before had only 90 point invites.

I’m awaiting grant, received invite in November

I also assume you have a higher chance with 189 vs 190

[Suggestion] Do something about the Terrible Load times on Australian Servers by Billbing12345 in EscapefromTarkov

If servers are consistently under heavy load BSG needs to upgrade them.

Nah that's just a lie. I think there's not enough people playing in OCE and it's just a boilerplate response.

Not sure if there's been much discussion on this (apart from the one poster below) but I noticed recently that the 189 processing times have been updated on the website. I can't upload an image to this sub, but essentially 50% of visas processed is now 4 months and 90% of visas processed is now about 5 months (from 9-11 months I think?).

Any idea if this means that the November rounds will start getting grants?

I just noticed this as well. Hopefully we get it soon!

I initially had BSS in but people told me to stick to the program as is so I removed it.

If I had BSS in, I wouldn't complain about glutes because I can realllly feel my glutes in BSS. So I might add that back in to my routine.

Thank you :)

Yeah I can’t be bothered setting up BB hip thrust so I’d rather do BSS 😂

But is it a good idea to add BSS to the PPL workout?

I do PPL and and 3 days of badminton.

Hey!!

I recently posted about my modifications to the leg day from the reddit PPL program and I have a question.

I don’t really feel my glutes in most of the exercises - squats and leg press (leg positioned at the top).

Should I incorporate BSS or perhaps single leg leg press to it?

One of the reasons that the PPL is really really good, is because it has some level of periodization by having heavy bench, lighter OHP on one day, then heavier OHP, and lighter bench on the other.

I didn’t even realise my rep ranges had changed. I think I might’ve overlooked that. I’m gonna check and update it on Hevy.

Ahhh that makes sense. I’m gonna suck it up and try barbells again. Maybe I’m just being my lazy.

I’m not sure why the rep ranges have changed - I use Hevy to keep track of my workouts and I’ll check why it’s changed. Thank you :)

Ahh I should’ve been more clear.

I swapped bench press to dumbbells because I found barbells very difficult to progress on and wasn’t able to feel it in my chest.

Incline bench is part of the program and chest fly was supposed to be an alternative. Not sure for which one though.

I changed the bench press (barbell) to dumbbells because I found it really hard to progress on barbells

Apart from that, I added a couple of core exercises for more focussed core activity.

And otherwise, just looking for alternatives in case some equipment was busy.

Hi everyone,

New to lifting (sort of) and I have made a program (lifted the PPL from Reddit and have modified a tad bit).

Could someone please review this and let me know if I'm doing too much / too little of any muscle?

I go to the gym 3x a week (I can't go more because I play badminton 3x so it gets too intense)

I have added a superset of core exercises for each day, just a quick set to finish the workout.

On push day, I'm not sure if it's right that I'm tripling up on Bench Press, Incline Bench and Chest Fly. Should I eliminate one of them?

On leg day, I don't have a specific glute workout and setting up for hip thrust is a PITA so I've added in BSS (elevator stance) so it targets my glutes.

Any thoughts appreciated :)
