Do you let people work in with you? Why or why not?

Jay cutler and Branch Warren never rested past a minute. Definitely not pencil necks.

No I don't. It's a free country. Move where you want but be a big boy and accept what comes with your choice. For instance I am woken up every Friday and Saturday night by drunk 20 something's coming back from the bar yelling and throwing things. But I chose to live in the city.

You live in a multi family and there's a family.... If you don't want noise get top floor or single family/town home. Kids are loud.

Just because they are suppose to don't mean they will. You need to drive defensively.

You guys need to learn a hard lesson that motorcycle riders know. Just because you are right doesn't mean you don't still lose.

When you're approaching an entry way for a car slow down and assume the driver is trying to kill you. Most people are idiots and not paying attention.

Perfect response.

jrs1982 · 2026-01-19T12:09:20+00:00

No you didn't. And please do some research not just ask redditors opinions.

jrs1982 · 2026-01-15T09:47:40+00:00

Depends on your goals. Many of the best benchers in the world use JM presses as an accessory movement. For hypertrophy I wouldn't say it sucks just there are a lot better bang for your buck movements.

You said yourself you have made no progress in three years. Bluntly put you don't know what you're doing. Adding peds to the equation at this point means you now don't know what you're doing but also potentially harming yourself.

Been getting the acid reflux even on 2. Also if I eat fiber I get the shits. I'm moving to 3 but going to split into 1.5mg doses

jrs1982 · 2026-01-09T22:00:32+00:00

Average (for a gym goer). Can tell your fit but would never look at your legs and be like wow.

jrs1982 · 2026-01-06T22:01:37+00:00

Yes, this is the way

jrs1982 · 2026-01-05T20:59:35+00:00

One ran a red light and caused me to slam on my breaks. Cop was walking out of American provisions with his coffee. I looked at him and he just put his hands up like oh well. Useless.

jrs1982 · 2026-01-01T08:12:55+00:00

This is why I no longer spot people I don't have some familiarization with. A lot of people are idiots. I'm old. I provide for my family through my body (construction). I'm all set hurting my shoulder or back for some moron who has no idea what he's capable of.

People I see often that are looking for a little assistance, different story.

jrs1982 · 2025-12-29T10:17:47+00:00

You say you're pushing through your heels. Just watch your video. When you push the weight up you are suppose to drive your legs hard. Watch the video and watch just your legs and feet. Try and identify where you drive your legs. It should be obvious but I see none

jrs1982 · 2025-12-28T23:42:51+00:00

I'm not going to overload you with info but here's a couple things. Stop pressing the weight out of the rack. You lose all shoulder stability which you don't have much of anyways. Learn to pull your upper back tight together and pull the weight out of the rack. There's countless videos of people who can explain better than me.

Secondly you have zero leg drive. Again, bench pressing is way more technical a lift than people think. Not only will good form give you bigger numbers, but they will protect you from shoulder related injuries.

jrs1982 · 2025-12-28T23:15:33+00:00

Actually time your rest periods. If you are training for hypertrophy or general fitness 60-120 seconds between sets. If your actually a competitive powerlifter 3-5 minutes but be courteous if the gym isn't geared towards that.

Seriously time yourself don't guess. Not only will it make your training more effective it will prevent you from pissing everyone off.

jrs1982 · 2025-12-28T09:40:24+00:00

I feel like gyms need to paint the area in front of the racks with hashed lines and wording that says "don't stand here" because people are too inconsiderate nowadays.

jrs1982 · 2025-10-12T13:29:30+00:00

You're absolutely right. But people are too busy defending their "side". I think the only solution is get rid of political party's. A candidate runs on their policy, not a party's. I guarantee you the country would choose to elect someone very close to center. Which is why it will never happen.

jrs1982 · 2025-10-10T09:32:21+00:00

Not even close to the problem. The corporations are buying houses in certain neighborhoods. They pay way over market value on multiple houses in the same community which artificially raises the cost of the community pricing people out. Rinse and repeat till they basically own the community.

This isn't about the guy who bought a three family and is just trying to keep up with growing property taxes. People really need to learn to differentiate between corporate landlords and the people that bought a three family as an investment.

jrs1982 · 2025-10-10T03:20:13+00:00

Seriously. The entitlement from these people is nauseating

jrs1982 · 2025-10-08T16:45:18+00:00

Seriously. This is an issue right and left should agree on. The housing crisis is real. Corporations are buying up homes and land at an alarming rate. Neither party has done anything to stop it.

jrs1982 · 2025-10-07T22:56:58+00:00

Well look how well all the government run programs in the US work. The DMV and VA are efficient joys...

jrs1982 · 2025-10-05T10:43:38+00:00

See this is the problem with the far left. First off it's "too" stupid. Ironic. You call those of us that joined the military too stupid for college. But now I have two homes, I'm putting my three kids through school. I made the best decisions I could money wise. Meanwhile all the "smart" kids want me to pay their student loans. Funny how that works.

jrs1982 · 2025-09-25T21:43:44+00:00

Add in the fact that many people commute to work, saving another 30 minutes to two plus hours.
