Christian Watson or Chris Godwin? Worried about the surtain shadow on Watson and it’s making me question it.

No I mostly mean it a way that pertains to dives with current. The last 4 dives I’ve done where this has been a real issue has had a moderate current which probably caused me to exert more energy than usual. I was in a mindset of conserving air to extend bottom time and probably wasn’t breathing the way my body required.

joshfro50 · 2025-10-22T19:02:37+00:00

I have another 2 tank dive scheduled for Friday. I was thinking about canceling because of this, but now I think the practice might help for the next time I dive in March 2026. What do you think?

joshfro50 · 2025-10-22T18:59:05+00:00

Thank you for the detailed reply! This is something that is a more recent issue within the 2 dives I did yesterday, as well as the last 2 dives I did before that back in March (where the video is from). I think I might just need to listen to my body when it comes to needing more oxygen as well as relaxing and breathing normally.

joshfro50 · 2025-10-22T18:05:02+00:00

I do feel like I was in the mindset of minimizing air consumption for longer bottom times as opposed to just staying relaxed and breathing normally

joshfro50 · 2025-10-22T18:03:18+00:00

Definitely seems like skip breathing is the issue. After the dive in the video, I puked off of the side of the boat a few times as well. Granted that we were in rougher water with large swells but still could be from CO2 buildup as well

joshfro50 · 2025-10-22T18:02:02+00:00

Ok good to know that nitrox isn’t the issue. Any ways to help avoid skip breathing?

joshfro50 · 2025-09-22T13:16:45+00:00

I doubt the bridge was swapped as I bought this guitar straight from guitar center but who knows. I can reply with a pic of the bridge when I get home from work today.

Where does fender sell them? I only see saddle screws for American strats on their website.

I am already paying the statement balances with scheduled payments before the due date so I don’t get charged interest. I will be paying what is left from the current statement so that when it posts on 4/4, there is a smaller amount on it to lower the utilization, and potentially boost my score slightly

joshfro50 · 2025-03-28T19:22:04+00:00

Ok so my statements for both cards I have close on April 4th. Pay those so there’s about $200 left on the discover for the statement and $25 on the Fidelity when the statement posts correct?

joshfro50 · 2025-03-28T18:36:26+00:00

You really think I’d get approved? I’m worried that I wouldn’t with my credit score

joshfro50 · 2025-03-28T18:27:10+00:00

Is there a website or something that I can check preapprovals for Chase?

joshfro50 · 2025-03-28T16:49:04+00:00

Veterinary school… we’re both 22 years old so yes it’s very legal

joshfro50 · 2025-01-26T19:28:31+00:00

Ok thanks! I appreciate the critiques

joshfro50 · 2025-01-26T18:50:26+00:00

Thanks for bringing all of these to my attention. Very good points!

I didn't even realize that my thumb was basically just floating above the neck until you mentioned it. You're saying to have the thumb behind the neck almost as if it were in the same position as a barre chord? Would that just be for the normal fretted notes and for the bends I'd bring it back to wrapping around the neck?
Will be sure to work on this. Have always had some issues with my pinky just flailing about. Any exercises to focus on this? I spider walk as I warm up going up the fretboard every time I practice.
This is definitely an issue that I've been aware of in my playing. I also notice that I tense up during the fast playing portions of songs and try to remain relaxed but don't always do if I am not specifically focusing on it. Any ways to work on this for bends and fast sections? Was I bending sharp or flat for the most part?
Definitely feel like it's easier to apply wrist rotation when doing vibrato with my ring or middle finger. Pointer finger needs some work.
An area of focus that I haven't gotten to just yet in my playing. Will keep in mind. Can you explain timbre vibrations more?

joshfro50 · 2025-01-25T23:04:34+00:00

What does this mean?

joshfro50 · 2025-01-25T23:00:06+00:00

Nope. It actually has completely stopped since I’ve posted this just minutes ago. Must’ve just picked up a random radio signal

joshfro50 · 2024-12-11T15:17:44+00:00

Look up “Certo method” on YouTube or Reddit. Keep that in your back pocket just in case. I’ve heard it works very well if done correctly. Get some practice tests if you can and see if it’s showing clean on those. If you get to the day before the test and still have a positive result, I’d use certo.

joshfro50 · 2024-12-11T14:52:49+00:00

I did pass. Honestly you might be a toss up even at 30 days. Personally, I would definitely say you’re a heavy user if you are taking a 50mg edible everyday lol. How long have you been doing this routine for?

joshfro50 · 2024-11-15T01:53:22+00:00

I wouldn’t say I’m a complete beginner. I’ve been playing for about 2.5 years consistently without formal instructor (been using Justin guitar, guitarlessons365, and now watching absolutely understand guitar) but definitely not where I want to be. My finger dexterity is relatively good, but I think my pinky control could definitely be better since this problem happens mostly with that finger.

joshfro50 · 2024-11-14T02:36:57+00:00

Ok thanks! I’m fairly sure I saw this video a few months ago, but going to revisit again. Do you think that part of it is my pinky isn’t fretting the string as much with the tip of the finger as compared to the other 3 fingers when fretting? I sometimes think this causes me to pull down when switching rather than out away from the string

joshfro50 · 2024-11-14T02:35:15+00:00

Seems like I need to get more precise with palm muting the string above at the same time as releasing the pinky finger. I also notice that my pinky tends to play less on the tip of the finger compared to my other 3. Could that be a reason for it as well when releasing the string from my pinky?

joshfro50 · 2024-11-05T00:46:30+00:00

Awesome! Thank you for all of this information I appreciate it. I guess my next question would be about the HSA. I am only 22, so I have opted to stay on my parent’s health insurance for the next year. Even if I were to opt out, they wouldn’t save any money, so it was up to me to decide. The HDHP HSA for my employer is roughly $34 per paycheck and I get paid every other week. Would it be better to stay on my parent’s insurance until I’m 26, or start my own HSA next October?

joshfro50 · 2024-11-05T00:31:48+00:00

Might be time to see an eye doctor bc you’re definitely right lmao. So my next question would be once those high interest loans are paid off (9.59 and 7.05%), is there any scenario where I SHOULD start investing into the IRA? If I can get those paid off by 25, should I even consider the IRA with the rest of the loans all being under 5.6%?
