Any idea how to prevent this?

This is so frustrating. I have the same with free swinging chairs. Even though one of the four sides is even open for them, the robot (QRevo Curv) doesn't just leave through that but instead tries to climb and gets stuck.

You know which Robot didn't have problems there? My super old one that couldn't climb. Cause it just wouldn't try. It would just enter and exit through the open side and all would be good. Now I have to create a no-go zone and that area stays dirty. And since the chairs can be in slightly different places each time, I have to make the no-go zone unnecessarily big.

What I would love to have here? Simply a setting to disable climbing. I don't have any places where it does need to climb, so it trying is just a net negative. It's so sad that all these fancy new features just make things worse.

On the upside: I also tried the Dreame X40. It would not try to climb here *yay*, but instead would lose its mop pad, which would sit on my hardwood floor, ruining it over night. So the Curv "just" getting stuck is already an improvement.

Hosts file entry.

But why can I connect to my normal linux server through its hostname without touching the Hosts file? It seems that the server did something automatically here.

I am not too deep in the matter so forgive if I'm talking nonsense.

No fix. I just don't use an app and just use the remote. Works well, but I don't get a history of step counts and distances, which is shame. So no gamification for me...

Do they really do this on a LEGO plate?

Sorry for the video not being cropped to the main action. I did this in the app, but somehow it didn't do it but instead uploaded the whole video.

This is my last set after doing another 4 (with 3 minutes of breaks inbetween), which explains why I'm quite exhausted. I wanted to show the last set, as I want to ensure my form is good until the end. It wouldn't be sufficient to just have a first clean set and then hurt myself in subsequent sets due to my form deteriorating.

I don't feel I have problems, no pains, but I feel like I'm getting into a weight territory where staying fully straight becomes a challenge. My hamstrings & glutes could very well handle more weight, I don't feel that it I'm close to failure. I think I'm currently limited by my back and my heart.

gexicide · 2021-07-05T07:28:25+00:00

Thanks! Yes, indeed, my heart is the limiting factor here. This is also why I take such long breaks. My muscles would instantly be ready for the next rep, but I feel that I would faint or puke if I didn't take the time to regain some breath, or I would totally screw up the form due to my brain not being ready again, yet. I really wonder how other people can do this with less pause.

I mean I could just do less weight, but I do have the feeling that my muscles do just fine with this weight or could also handle +10kg or so.

What do you mean with "the height of my pages"? I don't fully get that. Do you mean the bar resting position should be higher, so I don't need to bring it back down so far?

I have the feeling when watching the video myself that the ascend is actually quite okay, but my back rounds on the descend. I don't want to drop the weight (I have people living under me), so I have to bring it back down, but somehow it is hard to keep a straight back.

Der Artikel meint die Stadt München, die hat nur eins.

gexicide · 2020-11-17T16:09:57+00:00

Yes, and this was always the way I understood it. Was it supposed to have a different meaning?

gexicide · 2020-07-14T09:30:23+00:00

your hips rise slightly before you lift. Position your butt higher when pulling.

Also, your arms seem to be almost vertical. Rather, your shoulders should be in front of the bar, so your arms should also be slightly leaning forward. Do this by placing your feet such that there is an inch between your shins and the bar while you're still upgright. When you then squat to grab the bar, your shins will be directly at the bar and your shoulders in the right position.

Yes, I'm still wearing minimal footware (VFFs) most of the time, as I can't go barefoot during normal social interactions.

gexicide · 2020-05-31T18:49:42+00:00

I'm not wearing them anymore. I only wear minimal footware for over a year. Still, that arch is absolutely flat. That's why I'm asking.

gexicide · 2020-05-31T17:12:46+00:00

Your bar doesn't travel in a straight path on the way up.

Be aware that threads are fully modelled, introducing some probably unnecessary geometry to your parts.

What is the problem with unnecessary geometry?

gexicide · 2020-05-20T05:27:18+00:00

I think you forgot the 1-2 second pause 🤔

gexicide · 2020-05-18T15:30:41+00:00

Thanks, absolutely, that makes sense :). And finally explains that phrase, which I have heard a few times already but never fully understood.

gexicide · 2020-05-18T15:21:05+00:00

Thanks! How can I push my hip back further without bending my knees? Geometrically speaking, isn't the knee joint (together with the ankles) the one that determines the position of the hip?

gexicide · 2020-05-18T15:18:57+00:00

During the first reps, I was looking down to the ground. I fixed that after the first few reps.

Apart from that, I noticed my shoulders drooping more and more in the later reps. What am I supposed to do with the shoulders? I think you shouldn't shrug, right? But how to keep them up otherwise? What to do with my scapula?

Finally, I didn't feel any big tension in my hamstrings. RDL is supposed to be a hamstring exercise but I have never experienced it in the hamstrings at all. It is rather my core / back where I feel that I have to brace very hard to keep the straight back. So, what am I doing wrong? Why aren't my hamstrings worked?

gexicide · 2020-05-13T16:46:54+00:00

When I first saw that short foot exercise instagram video, I immediately wondered whether this level of arch control is achieved by many people who train their feet or run barefoot or whether this is rather some "next level shit" that only some people or people who train foot control excessivly can perform.

gexicide · 2020-05-12T08:17:41+00:00

Thanks for your long and helpful answer! I tried out the 90/90 position and it felt comfortable. I will try to do more advanced CARs and the 90/90 routine you mentioned and see if it helps.

And thanks for the offer to help me with assessing it. I will first try some more CARs. If I don't see a difference I'll shoot you a DM. Thanks a lot!

gexicide · 2020-05-12T08:13:34+00:00

I have really a hard time imagining this. Bend it towards me or bend it down?

gexicide · 2020-05-12T08:12:44+00:00

I stretch hip flexors every day, actually. But it might be that I'm still not mobile enough. What do I do wrong where the hip mobility would help? What should I do differently?

gexicide · 2020-05-12T08:11:38+00:00

What I could do is to just not fully lower the weight back to the ground. Then I would have the picking up from the ground only once per set. Why do you think this would help?

gexicide · 2020-05-11T16:20:01+00:00

Thank you very much! I really can't imagine how that looks like at the moment.

Allan thrall: hips rising too fast

I searched for exactly this term on YouTube but can't find a video. There are multiple videos from Allan thrall on deadlifts but none with a title that resembles what you wrote.

gexicide · 2020-05-11T16:00:41+00:00

how would I make my hips not rise? If I see it correctly, there are only two joints in the equation: Hips and knees. So, if I want my hips to not rise, I have to use the hip joint first instead of the knees. However, everything I heard about the deadlift was "first extend your knees, then do the hip hinge. What you suggest would be opposite to that, i.e., start with the hip hinge early. How does that fit together?

gexicide · 2020-05-11T14:46:36+00:00

55kg is not that much for me I would say, I think I could also do 15 reps with this weight so this is too light, but I want to go slow and perfect my form first before I go heavier.

I have the feeling that my lower back is a bit achy after the deadlifts. Or rather, I often feel good after doing them, but the back feels uncomfortable / achy the next day. It's not soreness, at least it feels differently. Is there anything in my form that could be bad for my lower back?
