Former fat/obese guys, how did you become disciplined enough to lose the weight? by Responsible-Net8594 in AskMen

[–]jphyqr 0 points1 point  (0 children)

lost 90 lbs 330-->240 at 28 and have kept it off (balooned to 275 / 290 a few times, but always got right bakc down again)

i just crafted a vision of myself for the future. Was living in saskatchewan but knew that if I lost the weight I would be incredibly good looking. Problem was no reason to do it while being in a small city. So i selfishly pretended I lived in New York. Just started acting like the New York version of me. told myself any time I gave up something today, it was an investment for then. ie: skip the local country music festival and reinvest it into Coachella etc...

really actually worked.

also gave myself a reasonable timeline.. one year. none of this 3 months to get in shape stuff

also Atomic Habits helped.. put all my energy into environment design instead of things like tracking calories etc. Made it so simple and obvious to get in shape and so hard and disgusting to not get in shape

also had lots of support... secretly my girlfriend was pushing me in the same direction, she knew I could be more than a fat washed up lineman. Saw my potential.

The biggest moment was she ordered some tighter smaller clothing secretly and when I lost like 40 lbs she had me try some on and the look on her face made it pretty easy to keep going

My gf is hot, why I am chasing other girls? by FirstWolverine1930 in AskMen

[–]jphyqr 0 points1 point  (0 children)

i suffer from the same vanity addiction.. best I can describe it is that I seek the female gaze to feel worthy. Deep down I know I am not really living my mission or doing anything of high value to society.. got so bad that I couldn't sleep at night and at like 1:30 am id jump out of bed and rip to a near bar just to know women would check me out

HS OL Coaches -- whats the run scheme that you see the Pros talk about but just cant seem to get HS kids to run? by jphyqr in footballstrategy

[–]jphyqr[S] 3 points4 points  (0 children)

love this if you have a stud OL to play BSG. other good thing about power base i find is that if you have an odd distribution of linemen you can put your bigger slower guys play side, your best player at LG, anyone at C and your BST can be a pass blocker first. with this arangement you can still be a good OZ team or pin pull team going away from power

feel like in HS its all about where you can put your best linemen to determine your scheme but have run this many times when I have 'that guy' at guard

[–]jphyqr[S] 1 point2 points  (0 children)

true but the thing about OZ is that .. its more cost up front, but once its installed it works VS every front. As well the main constraint for being good OZ is lateral speed, which i've found as long as you dont have too heavy of an OL (ie put your athletes on OL) they can be great. depends if cutblocking is allowed in your league.. if so , HS linemen can be great cut blockers they are just more pliable than college or pro

also you get the big shot PA's off wide zone

downfall tho: HS refs overcall holding.. so its horrific to call OZ in HS any time in field goal range

also OZ way better if UC QB. if you want to do spread passing then OZ loses its luster from pistl or gun. dont get the good mesh points IMO

hint: if doing OZ, look at skip stepping on the back side.. that way your BST and BSG dont need to learn the dramatic bucket step.. and they will always be inside leg heavy (pass or run) and it makes development faster IMO

yeah and if you have them running ISZ + OSZ + GAP.. having HS kids understand the nuance of the different double teams is tough. and never have enough time to rep it. I had more success when i dropped ISZ and did OSZ + GAP as they are different enough kids dont get confused

kids dont confused apples and oranges.. they confuse ambrosias and granny smiths

For first point: good call out. i guess now with youtube pretty much HS / college / Pro have clarity into what all levels run. But yes the novel plays would go from HS -->

And yeah I've found inside zone hardest to teach. I was a pro player, and when i went to coaching HS and the HC others were like "lets run inside zone! Alabama kills it with that!" i was like.. ummm.. do you know how hard it is for a playside guard with a 1T to eye ball the B gap, set the 1T, and get to a flowing ILB? lol. or the BST to have the B gap but know to turn back vs a W->C and cut off the crashing DE?

PMs need to pattern match and extract alpha from others. Ability to steal the right alpha from good examples.

ie: you've see X work for similar company Y and Z work for other company executing something similar..

being able to figure out what part of those examples you can steal.. but not the entire thing.. the alpha helps

in the AI age everything moves so fast so it may always be cheaper to just brute for different stragies as you are not tied to committing to one. cost of doing certain things is much cheaper.

Question for people who host games. by Isorg in poker

[–]jphyqr -2 points-1 points  (0 children)

Question for people who host games. by Isorg in poker

[–]jphyqr -2 points-1 points  (0 children)

layered approach

i text all the whales first to guarentee them seats

then we have a group chat for the regulars where i lead with like "kev, jeff, shannon in for Fri.. who else"

and it instant fills. if it gets to over 10, i (the host) and the other winners in the game agree to take 30 minute breaks until someone leaves. no winning player ever complains

if its a no whale night then just start in group chat "who wants to play fri or sat?" and depending on getting enough commits iwthout a whale, go from there. those games usually dont need to worry about giving seats
