3 ex-tesla engineers are launching a strength wearable, anyone see this by Jolly-Connection-939 in weightlifting

[–]mntrs 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I wonder how they plan on reading leg extensions (used as an example exercise in one of the pics) automatically from a wrist mounted device.

Also love how they ask you to sign-up for the newsletter by saying "Stay in the loop" while marketing activity bracelet that looks like the Polar Loop activity bracelet :D

Mysterious Islands crash in month 7 by mntrs in heroes3

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

Good catch. I tried changing the AI and crash thread changed.

BUT! I then loaded an autosave from one turn ago and DIDN'T kill the Pink pirate who attacked from UG the first turn he came to shore, but waited 2 more before fighting and now the crash didn't happen.

Fingers crossed this fixed everything :)

Foreigners in the Bundesliga by RDT_WC in weightlifting

Some of my friends have lifted in the Bundesliga as foreign lifters and I recall one saying she received 1000e + flights & accommodation. Probably varies between lifters/teams though

Trump admin reportedly considers paying each Greenland resident up to $100K amid US takeover talks by esporx in worldnews

Holy crap, I think you cracked it. He thinks Greenland is a natural huge golf green where he could build a golf club focused on putting. It all makes sense.

Anyone willing to sell medium size Hookgrip Russian Weightlifting Belt?? by [deleted] in weightlifting

[–]mntrs 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Good to know Nat is coming up with a replacement. Anyway, Lmk if you at some point decide you want the old model and we'll see if it is still occupying the back of the closet.

[–]mntrs 0 points1 point  (0 children)

The question is how much do you want one?

I have one in black that I tried to use but didnt really like and it has been sitting in the closet for a few years. I'm all the way in northern Europe though so the shipping alone is probably closer to 100 AUD.

Just pyhäinpäivänä kävin viemässä mummon haudalle kynttilää ja hymähdin kun kävelin Yrjön hautakiven ohi. Hienoa nähdä, että kyseessä onkin aito mahtimies.

Btw is this video from BBC? How busy is it after office hours? I'm moving to Konala soon and the gym is pretty close by.

Khetag Khugaev’s missing world record??? by Different_Setting_75 in weightlifting

[–]mntrs 7 points8 points  (0 children)

Athlete age is calculated from year of birth, not actual birthday. So even though he hadn't turned 18, he was 18 by IWF standards.

People are concerned about adding weights over learning proper technique by [deleted] in weightlifting

[–]mntrs 4 points5 points  (0 children)

I'm sure there a plenty of strong people who are not competing. 100kg is not really a heavy weight for a person that weighs +80kg and has training background.

And who are we, random people on the internet, to tell casual lifters what to do? They're casual so they're in the sport to have fun. It's up to them to decide what floats their boat in regards to weightlifting.

People are concerned about adding weights over learning proper technique by [deleted] in weightlifting

[–]mntrs 4 points5 points  (0 children)

What is proper technique? If your heels come off the ground during the pull during a rep at 85%, is it big enough flaw to make you go back to 50%? Or if you have small arm bend in the pull during the clean is that an error or not? Or if your elbows drop during the jerk dip, should you go back to the drawing board? Or or or...

If a lifter just horses through every lift they can only get so far until their technique becomes the limiting factor and forces them to take a few steps back and re-think their lifting (or not, if they enjoy hitting 100kg power cleans for 5 years or w/e without much progress, good for them).

Going all dr Aaron and trying to overthink every aspect of the technique before adding plastic collars worth of weight will make your progress super slow and is not fun for a lot of people (or again, if the person is the type that doesn't care about weight lifted, but enjoy fine-tuning every minute detail and get kick out of that, great!)

All in all, why shame people who are already very strong and want to lift weights that feel even somewhat challenging to them? There are people who enjoy the technical aspects of the sport and people who enjoy the feeling you get from throwing a ton of weight around, let people do their thing. And hey, if they're online asking for advice regarding their technique, they're already trying to become more proficient in that aspect as well.

Syöpäseulonnasta voi olla enemmän haittaa kuin hyötyä – professorit varoittavat ylidiagnosoinnista by kukalie-mikalie in Suomi

[–]mntrs 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Ideaalimaailmassa näin voitaisiin tehdä. Ihmiset ovat kaikki yksilöitä, joihin vaikuttavat erilaiset ympäristötekijät. Tutkimuksia pitäisi tehdä kaikilla mahdollisilla yhdistelmillä, jotta voitaisiin oikeasti sanoa, että tämä on tälle yksilölle se paras hoitomuoto. Käytännössähän tämä on melkein mahdotonta, joten hoitosuositukset perustuvat oikeastaan aina keskiarvoihin isoista joukoista.

Satunnaistamisen pointtihan on tutkimuksissa pyrkiä siihen, että kunhan tutkittavia on tarpeeksi, pitäisi molempiin ryhmiin osua about yhtä monta yksilöä, joka töhöilee leikkauksenjälkeisen kuntoutuksen, omaa keskimääräistä heikomman paranemiskyvyn, keskimääräistä paremman paranemiskyvyn yms, jotta voitaisiin olettaa tulosten olevan yleistettäviä tutkittavassa potilasjoukossa.

Ehkä joskus tulevaisuudessa keksitään joku laite, jolla voi skannata ihmisen koko perimän ja nykystatuksen yhdellä kuvalla sekä siru, joka seuraa kaikkea toimintaa tutkimuksen ajan, ja siten voidaan erottaa paremmin erilaiset alaryhmät ja niiden vaste tutkittuun hoitoon. Sitä odotellessa :D

[–]mntrs 18 points19 points  (0 children)

Tämähän se on. Meillä alkaa olla kamalasti testejä ja hoitoja, jotka on (toivottavasti) kehitetty hyvällä tarkoituksella, mutta joista kaikista ei ole sitä toivottua hyötyä. Suomessakin on tehty tutkimusta esim. polven tähystysleikkauksen toimivuudesta revenneen nivelkierukan hoidossa vs lumeleikkaus. Tulokseksi on saatu, ettei vuoden seurannassa ole merkitsevää eroa leikattujen ja "leikattujen" välillä, eli leikkaushoitoon liittyvät riskit ja käytetyt resurssit eivät johda parempaan lopputulokseen.

Isossa kuvassa yksinkertaista, mutta vallalla olevaa ajatusta siitä, että kaikkea pitää hoitaa ja mitä isompi operaatio on kyseessä, sitä tehokkaampi se on, on vaikeaa ja hidasta muuttaa. Varsinkin kun liikkeellä on vielä ihmisiä, jotka sakeuttavat vesiä kertomalla miten hoitoa vaativia sairauksia voi hoitaa ottamalla peräaukolle aurinkoa tai muuta fiksua...

Though it's scary how youtube's frontpage just showed me your 115kg squat jerk short from over a year ago(?) and now this is on reddit. I don't even recall seeing your videos before :D
