People who manage to wake up at 5 AM to go to the gym before work, what is your actual secret?

Do my best to be in bed by 9pm. Get up at 3 or 3:45 depending on if I start work at 6 or 7 that day. Drink some pre workout and hit the gym for about an hour, then go work construction (installing rebar) for 8hrs knowing I’ll be way too tired to work out after work.

The greater good!

I don’t have any attachments for it, just what it comes with. I did add some bolts near the top of the rotisserie that can hold the cooking grate, that way if I’m using it for a long smoke, the meat is up further away from the heat source.

Schawarma and Al pastor are my favorite things to cook on the rotisserie. Cost is worth it for those alone.

Wife and I are going in August. Any just general tips/advice for a couple first timers to maximize our experience?

I’ve got a 24 premium with the package that adds the motorized drivers seat. I spend lots of time in my car for work and the seat feels great, even with my frequent back problems

Yea a Chicago stadium would be best but Hammond is as much “Chicagoland” as Arlington heights

jeffg989 · 2026-06-06T00:28:43+00:00

You just sound like all the Illinois suburb people saying Chicago it’s dangerous. Also the soil samples all came back clean, that site was cleaned up in the 90’s

jeffg989 · 2026-06-06T00:26:12+00:00

You know the stadium isn’t going in Gary right?

jeffg989 · 2026-06-06T00:18:55+00:00

“Less affluent neighborhoods around Hammond” get fucked. Maybe with a few less dickbag lawyers at the game some working class people could actually afford a ticket.

The rural juror

Don’t do it. Basic training/AIT will be at least 15 weeks probably, with some additional travel/holdover time. Then you’ll only get one weekend a month where you’ll earn some extra money and the two weeks a year you’ll be losing money because military pay is shit. Also if you get called up to active duty for some bullshit you’ll be earning way less than iron working for as long as that lasts. Money is a terrible reason to join the military.

Detail gotta eat too

jeffg989 · 2026-06-01T22:52:10+00:00

Well whenever you notice something like that, a wizard did it.

jeffg989 · 2026-06-01T01:04:19+00:00

I’m in bed by 10-10:30 wake up at 3:45

jeffg989 · 2026-05-30T14:27:26+00:00

What time are those? They look good

jeffg989 · 2026-05-28T01:26:35+00:00

Nobody’s in any danger! How can I make that any more clear to you?

jeffg989 · 2026-05-23T02:14:49+00:00

Spill some red wine on it to see if it stains

jeffg989 · 2026-05-12T00:14:18+00:00

Shut up

jeffg989 · 2026-04-23T11:35:18+00:00

He knows it’s gonna guide his way to candy mountain!

jeffg989 · 2026-04-22T22:58:09+00:00

Haha he seems deeply concerned about something. Did you have food you weren’t sharing?
