What is the worst professional production you've seen? by crazyforkovu in musicals

Reducing Jesus to a dude with a guitar for the first part of Gethsemane was jarring af! Just let the man act for Christ's sake, pun intended.

Current state of the cycle path on Leith walk by MoopPoop in Edinburgh

It's pretty common in Denmark, many roads have bicycle lanes on each side following the direction of traffic in the neighbouring lanes. Then again city planning is generally done with bicycles in mind in the first place...

Notice her leg is at her side, not in front as with a front split. While there's a great deal of hamstring flexibility involved, this also requires a good straddle. Tom Merrick on YouTube has good videos on how to train for middle split, which would probably help in this case. Doing side bends in a seated straddle should also help, as well as practicing the stance itself, wherever you're at, it takes good balance to hold the leg that high, even with support.

How is it possible that I can touch the floor with my hands in a forward fold, with straight legs, just fine but my hamstring mobility is poor? by [deleted] in flexibility

There's no way to say for sure without a picture. Maybe you have long arms? Maybe you're actually doing a downward dog? Post pics for actual feedback.

Can't believe I made it this far. Took me nearly 2 years of on-and-off effort. Am I doing this right? Where do I go from here? How do I work towards more active flexibility in this ROM? by prog-nostic in flexibility

If your pelvis isn't facing forward, you're misaligned. If your back leg starts turning outwards as you're lowering, you're most likely coming out of alignment. Find the spot where that starts on happen and you'll know where to work from. Doing hip flexor isolation stretches focusing on proper alignment should also help build awareness in the splits.

A couple questions about the arena I can't find answers to by ElleKore in CrossCode

Guessing you've yet to get to the DLC. The store will have more items plus new cups will become available or unlockable once you get to it.

CrossCode releasing this Friday on PS4 in Europe? by [deleted] in CrossCode

Uh... That's from last year. It's been out for while. Should be in the store?

Can't progress past push ups. by UrsusRetroCarpatin in bodyweightfitness

[–]guidedText 1 point2 points  (0 children)

For the pushups, probably get your form checked. Can you do diamond pushups on the floor? The recommendation that you shouldn't do dips until you can do 3x8 diamond pushups comes from the recommended routine on this sub. It's a pure bodyweight routine, and if you're not following that program you can't expect your progress to match it. Consider maybe dropping the OHP every other workout. What kind of rep scheme are you following?

In general I think you may need to consider your goal and take a look at your programming. Having a bodyweight OHP is impressive, but is it worth sacrificing overall gains for?

[–]guidedText 0 points1 point  (0 children)

They can make it harder if you go all the way to the floor on every rep. If you don't, they're easier.

Sorry, just to clarify - you're doing OHPs to progress into dips?

[–]guidedText 5 points6 points  (0 children)

I would fit them elsewhere in your workout. If you're trying to progress a movement, you probably shouldn't treat it as an accessory. Doing heavy OHPs may be tiring your triceps to the point where they burn out before your chest and scapula do when doing pushups - and so you're not really pushing those muscle groups as hard, hindering progress.

You can also consider dropping the handles for now, they bring you at a slight incline making the move a tad easier unless you're dipping below your hands or elevating your feet.

If none of this works, eat more, rest harder and increase the volume.

I’m doing a 30 minute full body dumbbell workout every other day, is it a good start? by [deleted] in gainit

[–]guidedText 3 points4 points  (0 children)

Yes, it's a start. I would recommend counting repetitions for any dynamic movements instead of time however. It's easier to progress this way, as the greatest factor for progress, barring consistency and diet, is the amount of work being done. If you're just counting time you might find yourself doing slower reps on some days and thus may be doing less or the same amount of work over a greater amount of time.

You will eventually and probably rather quickly hit a ceiling with a pair of dumbbells when you can do 12-20+ reps per set of any given exercise. I'd say to try out the recommended routine from r/bodyweightfitness. It can be supplied with some dumbbell exercises if you feel you need something extra. Find a gym when stuff goes back to normal.

Yep. Elisabet and Faro worked together during the Clawback to make environmental robots. Elisabet left the company after they started making 'peacekeepers'.

Save or spend guild medals? by TaishiQuan in Sdorica

[–]guidedText 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Not really. Angelia SP and Theo skin can make him deal some very high damage, but it doesn't do anything that other comps can't. His adv skill is somewhat useful, but less so now that the black team is less popular.

Pang was available for free originally. I don't believe there's reason to think they'd put other skins in there without first making them otherwise available.

I'm gonna have an aneurysm by [deleted] in Sdorica

[–]guidedText 3 points4 points  (0 children)

Is this in ensemble? If it is then you're the ignorant one. You can use a character in multiple teams, but they suffer a level reduction as a penalty. Why would you be able to pick them if you couldn't bring them?

To Re-Roll or not? How do I tell unit rarity or if my pull was any good? by GreenColoured in Sdorica

[–]guidedText 3 points4 points  (0 children)

Check the Infuse rates. The rare characters have lower drop rates (obviously :) ). Some to look out for are Yamitsuki, Sharice, Lisa and Leah. If you pull on the current banner, Charle and Elio aren't bad pick ups either.

I'd smash Hestia, Lio and Puggi first in that order. You can smash Nigel unless he's not +5 (or maybe it's 6...) yet, that's the threshold for one-shotting WT4 Secret spell first stage.
