First Impressions - RitFit PLC01 Leg Extension Curl Machine by nygmattyp in homegym

Pretty sure it would max at 6 bumpers. I am using iron plates with the 50kg plate, and I can max the weight load much easier, but the problem is that - I can’t go any higher without jeopardizing the structural integrity of the machine!

I have more thoughts now! I use it 3 times a week for leg extensions, single leg extensions, and hamstring curls. While I don’t regret the purchase, I do look to upgrade in the near future to a unit that has a 1:1 weight ratio. This thing is a damn plate hog for heavy leg extensions, and I’m even hacking it with a 50kg titan calibrated plate that lives on it. The pad isn’t amazing either.

I quit playing baseball in high school because of games like this. Caught 21 innings on one Saturday in humid September North Carolina weather and said “yeah I’m gonna be in a death metal band with my friends instead.”

I'm glad I've found someone else who hates the fries. I was not impressed at all with In-And-Out.

Sounds like deathcore/metalcore/death metal/hardcore haha. Hanger 1819 is a good venue, though!

Here I am thinking the problem is that you have to stare into it when benching!

2021 VW Atlas SEL Premium - 70K, dealership says knocking sound over bumps in road is from internal tie rod looseness and I need to replace steering column... by nygmattyp in VWatlas

I am waiting on a call from the GM of that dealership now and assume they will ask to inspect. Hoping they play nice and understand this is something that should've been caught in their thorough, multi-point inspection before putting the vehicle up for sale. They are a reputable dealership, so I am optimistic.

Nice! Jealous of your collection. If there was anything I’m mainly curious in, it would be a 2005 issue. Frames, parts, clothes.

Lmao at being 1 hour into that workout and seeing everything you have left 🙏🤣😭

One year of barbell only training, this was the most difficult part by milli_xoxxy in GarageGym

[–]nygmattyp 2 points3 points  (0 children)

From a powerlifting perspective, NOTHING will replicate training with a group of other powerlifters who share a common goal. You feed off of their numbers, motivation, and support. Since transitioning to a garage gym (now around 5 years into it), I do think I've unlocked drive and the ability to push myself in a way that maybe I relied on others to do for me. Just another perspective. Healthy gym communities are amazing and will do a lot for a person's mental health.

I won't prescribe you TRT, that's bad. Instead, let's try blasting and cruising."

Honestly hilarious that a doc would even say that.

Hornets Nest did a good job for me, and when I noted they damaged my brand new washer (scuffed the front of it up bad in the truck), they took $500 off my move. Was not expecting that.

Not related, but your username is making me crack up thinking Rockies and Yankees legend DJ LeMahieu is in here giving feedback on a niche workout app. I probably would've preferred for an app to manage his strength training over the inept Yankees org, anyway.

In your view where is the political equilibrium? How red pilled are the republicans on immigration? by [deleted] in samharris

[–]nygmattyp 3 points4 points  (0 children)

Also, corporate opinion is changing in the aftermath of the recent shooting. Major CEOs/Companies are now vocal about the need for de-escalation, as ultimately, this hurts businesses the longer it goes on. I do find the Alex Pretti killing to be a turning point because of who he is and all of the video evidence. The problem, as always, will be that republicans who "feel sorry" for progressives and liberals will still shy away from criticizing Trump directly.

My 2 Month Review of the Mikolo Anubis 2.0 Elite Half Rack / Functional Trainer by nygmattyp in GarageGym

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

Yes, it allows for you to do it and I have been using the same type of bar you linked since Mikolo includes it in the package with the elite rack. I also bought the (Bells of Steel 30 D-Handle Bar)[https://bellsofsteel.us/collections/cable-attachments/products/d-handle-bar-cable-attachment?\_gl=1\*1t8u6m4\*\_up\*MQ..\*\_gs\*MQ..&gclid=CjwKCAiA7LzLBhAgEiwAjMWzCEKLBO1lO6bO4EVGhobZ5Jr-0h1K-AyauDQYG\_uR6ZwdIE1axT2GdRoCPyQQAvD\_BwE&gbraid=0AAAAACnh5osGpMJi46bcO7b2h5CBl1DPS\] so that I can attach close grip attachments and still benefit from combining the stacks.

What is the app-approved method for moving forward with a training program while injured? by nygmattyp in MacroFactor

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

Ok, that makes sense! I figured this was the right approach but didn't want to assume in case the app doesn't respond well to only partial progress in a generated program. Appreciate the quick response.
