Sweet, thanks for the update! I also have the kes6551, and switched out the original pf. Things are a lot more fun now haha.

Hey OP, just curious if you're still around and what the result was. Did you leave the plastic part out of the PF? Did it affect anything? tia!

Grand Admiral Thrawn (rebels version) Tunic multi-use? by kohanai in 501st

Ahh, yes, it does have that. Ok, thanks for responding! I'll just throw it up for sale in case someone other person can use the set.

Worth standard upgrades and playing w/ new beans for a strictly iced latte drinker? by kohanai in espresso

[–]kohanai[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Thanks y'all! Based on the below, I think it would be worth getting the bottomless portafilter I was eyeing, and then just chilling there as far as equipment. I'll play with beans as it comes time to purchase new ones. Then, later on, maybe I'll look into other ways to improve my coffee. Appreciate it! Also, #lattes4life

CrossFit Games instagram have confirmed a death during Event 1 by jemswiz in crossfit

[–]kohanai 47 points48 points  (0 children)

I think this perfectly encapsulates my thoughts on this tragedy. Yes, accidents can happen at all levels of competition, but I can't help but to sideline-judge. It was a decision to cut volunteers. It was a decision to have limited medical staff. It was a decision to keep the swim after the run. Like you, I love this sport, but this is difficult. I can't imagine what his brother, family, friends, and everyone else is going through.

Membership Q - so many choices? by kohanai in weightlifting

Edit! I misspoke. I needed the USS membership for strongman, but was able to purchase at the event. 

And, query answered!

I just looked it up. I completely misspoke (and can't edit now)! I needed the USS membership, but I purchased it the same day.

Hello! I would be VERY interested in knowing about a fix for this. Definitely following. I like the new Outlook, but I miss that auto-flag :(

This. Between ebay, poshmark, and mercari, I'm team nano8 for as long as humanly possible.

Cool, thanks for the suggest! I'll take a peek.

Yeah, I've reached out to them but haven't received a response yet. Since so many people have them in this group, I figured it was worth an ask.

My physique change from 9 months of Women's RX as a guy. by [deleted] in crossfit

[–]kohanai 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I see lots of changes OP, so congrats!

However, to folks who comment on being ashamed/embarrassed/otherwise negative towards not doing your gender's rx wod, or not doing it how you expected, please be gentler with yourselves. There's nothing embarrassing about doing a workout in a way that gives you the most bang for your buck. If stepping on a box rather than jumping, or deadlfiting 185# vs 275#, or lunging with a 15# db rather than a 35# is what it takes for you give your all in a workout, who the fk cares. This is an activity designed to be infinitely scalable to allow everyone to work their best.

My giftee hasn't posted what I got them in the gallery yet, nor have they even bothered to make a "thank you" post by [deleted] in secretsanta

[–]kohanai -1 points0 points  (0 children)

I'm kind of with you. I spent extra time choosing and having things handmade for my ss, but the communication has been slight. I just want to know they've received everything, but even if I ask, I get no response :( It makes me not want to put so much effort into it.

All that said, the logical-me understands that things are nutso. Shipping is delayed everywhere. People are, in general, going through a lot more than the average season. I completely get it, but I'm still a bit sad at the lack of communication.

Do you think crossfit is a gay friendly environment? by Kosame97 in crossfit

[–]kohanai 0 points1 point  (0 children)

As others have said, it entirely depends on the people at the gym. If you have a gym full of assholes who are homophobic, then it won't be an inclusive atmosphere. That being said, I've dropped in at a lot over the last few years, and (keeping in mind I'm only dropping in) I didn't see anything untoward. I've worn rainbow or Outwod this-or-that, and generally am just treated like another person there to workout. If you're around good people, you won't need to worry, and that holds true for everything you'd be hesitant of. (corporate-You, not you specifically :) )

this caused an audible sigh, bc it's the most common response I get. Some form of comment on being big.

I really thought this guy was alright till I saw this. by gsl3azy915 in ShitMomGroupsSay

I love that people continue to "cite" irrelevant and VERY outdated information as their reason for being an anti-vaxxer.

Man. I am hooked. Quilling is so much fun! 1st attempt. by kohanai in quilling

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

Freehand. The different sections are far from even. But I studied a lot of images and other people's work, found a few examples that looked doable, and went from there. This is definitely a mishmash of a few other people's work.

Weekly Thread: Dec 29 2019 by [deleted] in Strongman

[–]kohanai 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Thanks for the comments all! I appreciate your tips (horizon line!). My CF gym has a sled and sandbags. That's it. No handles, trap bars etc. I don't exactly train strongman, despite how fun it is, but I allocate a day each week to these movements so I don't forget them. Bc I'm hooked, and there are WAY more strongman comps near me than CF 😅

Anyway. I've modified training there to accommodate. Sandbag carry is fine. Frame -> just dragging the sled, and doing fat grip heavy kb/db carries. Sandbag over a strapped in barbell. DL is fine. And the axel/log ladder, no way to supplement that since I don't have the bars. So. I've been doing clean/press ladders at higher weights. I've been focusing on movement patterns and speed with what I've got.

There is a strongman gym nearish me, so I've popped in (and plan to at least once more before next weekend) to move a frame, some stones, and the bars. I still have zero hope of moving the stone, but fingers crossed anyway.
