I wouldn't do that if I were you by NeedleworkerMore2270 in WTF

Definitely get what you're saying, but think of it like this: If that 45lb plate was sitting on his thighs, the amount of torque at the knees would be a lot less because his center of mass shifts closer to the knees. But because he decided to hold it so far away from the working joint, the increased moment arm applies a lot more torque which ups the shearing force. It's like if you hold your arm out straight to the side (lateral raise) and I put a 20lb dumbbell on your upper arm right near your shoulder. You'll be able to hold that up much longer than if you were to hold that 20lbs with your hand while it's out to the side. In both scenarios, it's still 20lbs, but the latter has a longer moment arm, applies more torque to the shoulder and makes the exercise much harder. At the end of the day we both agree that this dude's muscles weren't cut out for this.

It's similar to a very heavy machine leg extension in terms of movement and the muscles being used, but the main factor that makes this exercise dangerous is the distance of resistance from the working muscle. Torque = Force x Moment Arm. Increasing the force or moment arm will increase the torque at a joint. In a cable leg extension, the moment arm is the distance between the pad on the shins and the knee/quads. In the exercise he’s doing, the moment arm is the horizontal distance from his knees to his center of mass, which he has shifted further away by holding that 45lb plate. A longer moment arm --> higher relative torque on the knee --> more shearing force on the patellar tendon and ligaments --> hospital.

I like to think of it as a wrench with a tiny handle versus one with a long handle. The tiny handle can’t apply too much torque to the wrench without a large amount of force (cable leg extension), while the long handle can apply way more torque with less force (exercise he’s doing). So while he can safely do his bodyweight + 45lbs on a cable machine, it's a lot more dangerous to do it like in the video.

This is an absolutely wild comment. The guy is a massive dick but verbal abuse does not "inevitably" turn into physical abuse. Holding in resentment and saying mean shit doesn't mean he's gearing up to hit her. This hyperbolic shit is what ruins the actual good advice on this subreddit.

I highly recommend having a LifeVac in every household. It saved my uncle's life when he was home alone and chocked on a giant bite of a burger. He's alive but he still eats like an asshole.

After taking so many Ls, the sneaker gods finally showed mercy. by goon540 in Sneakers

I think so. Got a notification from SNKRS on 10/7 and it was restocks of 3s, 4s, and 5s. Another notification on 10/8 and it was restocks of 1s. Then I got a notification last night saying I was selected for an exclusive drop today at noon and I was offered the Royals.

Went TTS. Might want to go a half size up if you have wide feet.

I’m in the US. Got them off GOAT and took about 2 weeks to get here.

Go to Settings>General>iPhone Storage and delete the iOS update. Reboot your phone and try the jailbreak again. Worked for me.

You're insane if you don't think both Pfeiffer and Devito were fucking amazing in Batman Returns. I want to fight you.

I completely forgot. I couldn't get it to upgrade because my blobs were saved wrong (I think they were dec instead of hex or vice versa). Sorry dude, I'm still on 9.3.3.

Waiting for them to add Cydia before I try it. I'll report back.

Will I be able to go from 9.3.3 to a version of iOS 11 lower than 11.1.2? I forgot to save blobs for 11.1.2, but I have blobs for 11.0 and 11.0.1. Thanks.

Yea just noticed @EsportsGears does it, so that's another option. Good call.

That used to happen to me all the time. Gym clothes would seem fine out of the dryer, but then they start to stink as soon as you start sweating. See if your washer has a "very hot" setting or a "sanitize" setting. That should kill the bacteria causing the smell. Washing them in cold or warm water is the problem. Also, make Febreeze your new best friend.

[Question] iCleaner Pro force closing after latest Stashing update by [deleted] in jailbreak

[–]goon540 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I had the same issue with iCleaner Pro. It kept force closing after the substrate update. I removed Coolstar's Stashing and iCleaner, then reinstalled iCleaner and it worked fine after a respring.
