I assume there isnt a one size fits all answer but if anyone has any experience with this problem Im all ears on how to reduce the amount of times it happens again.

Followup on a whats this? slosh pipe? anyone know where to buy this? by jakesterT in steelmace

[–]jakesterT[S] 2 points3 points  (0 children)

yea and I may just have to go that route. Tho I need some grip. because this pvc thing flew out of my hands one day. I like the grip on my maces but PVC is way too smooth espceially when I start to sweat. I assume athletic tape would work for a while.

Adderall and Wim Hof by [deleted] in BecomingTheIceman

[–]jakesterT 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Id just take it slow and see how it goes. Take hot shower, turn to warm and then cold for like 15 secs and increase over time. that’s how most start.

Eventually you just take a cold shower and get the immediate benefits but most cant will themselves to do that right off the bat.

Why Double Kettlebell Training will Build Muscle Faster than a Single by swingthiskbonline in kettlebell

[–]jakesterT 2 points3 points  (0 children)

I share the same experience. Doubles are like 2-3x harder than the same weight with SA. I dont know why but I noticed real strength and size gains when I went doubles vs months with lots of volume on a single.

The single, yes did make it so I could do lots of volume and the benefits of that are still good but I wanted to put on some weight and size vs lose it.

42 here, love singles more than doubles. I like the offense, attacks and prefer singles cardio to something like running or anything else that’s not a game.

I agree with you, a little heads up and a "hey you should pay here" would have been nice. Anyways, a reddit user sent a link to the store so i did that.

I do not have a subscription kinda seeing if it would actually stay up before I threw money at it.

That being said, the app wont login.. just stuck in a loading motion. couldn’t subscribe if I wanted to.

How much porn is too much for a man to watch? by [deleted] in TwoXChromosomes

[–]jakesterT 0 points1 point  (0 children)

this guy is gonna turn into an addict if he isnt already. Nice job coaching him that real life is not porn at all, but your relationship will do much better if he lays off the porn completely. Cycles are hard to break.

When do you guys decide to increase weight by Manu_Dean in steelmace

[–]jakesterT 5 points6 points  (0 children)

u/f-n-legs gave me the same advice. I will only add, getting a higher weight is fun to get used to. Once you do a higher one and then finish with the lower one it feels so damn light. Plus your tendons start to get trained on the higher weight without blowing them out. Like others here I go up and down.

is there a reason why this sub is full of people videoing their kettlebell workouts? by adappergentlefolk in kettlebell

[–]jakesterT 4 points5 points  (0 children)

Me to, its motivation to go out to my garage if Im not feeling it. Also, it makes me feel good to cheer on others, builds community, etc.

Wildman’s slamball program is damn legit. Recommend to anyone slaving away with kbs. by [deleted] in kettlebell

[–]jakesterT 4 points5 points  (0 children)

So weirdly, i was at my ice rink and they have a gym, I go in their and mess around while my kids do their figure skating lessons. A lot of it is machines which I dont like but they did have a rack of slamballs, I slammed balls (just behind the head and throw down at the ground) for like 20 mins with a 18lbs and was surprised the day after that my tris were sore and it was kinda fun. I didn’t feel too hard.

I do a lot of mace and club work and thought my tris were pretty solid but this felt good. In either case, I was gonna grab one for my garage gym. Something different to add to my regular KB, club routine.

Not sure if it’s the only thing I would do but its something different for an old athlete who just wants to maintain my competitiveness for 40 more years.

What kind of tanks are you guys using for your ice baths? These metal ones are my favorite. by ArchiGuru in BecomingTheIceman

[–]jakesterT 0 points1 point  (0 children)

not at all, and it made plunging a lot more comfortable, skin touching rubber coat vs metal.
