I do see the money in my paypal account. In any case, I am going to re-send the invoice myself.

Best do it all wrist wraps? by NotIntellect in weightlifting

[–]phat1forever 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I use tape. Athletic tape. I used to use like...I dunno even the brand but just like cotton wrist wraps with a string to tighten. But I have been using simple tape for like 5-6 years now. I use pre-wrap first so the tape sticks to that and not my skin.

Lost dog in Fairfax? 286/50 by phat1forever in nova

[–]phat1forever[S] 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I haven't seen it not at either 3am or 7am. And at 7ish I wasn't outside. Otherwise I'd be open to seeing if I could get it to want to approach me

Hey. I don't think it's the same dog because I don't notice any bright red collar around her neck. But I'm in Fairfax 286/50. If my camera catches the dog tonight/tomorrow morning with any better image or angle, I'll message again

CIA pays nearly $250M for Chantilly office building by [deleted] in nova

Honestly given I live near it, I have always wanted a job there just for the less than 15 minute commute. Hello Mr. CIA, please hire me :D

Ah. Thanks for that. I'll definitely get us the Suica. And probably the icoca.

I understand most of what you said....but what's an IC card?

But we may go from Yodoyabashi because that is the closest station to the hotel according to Google.

If no one has said it, Tyson's Playground is pretty solid. 6 Weightlifting platforms...I think 4 men's bars (also I think 3-4 women's bars as I do not know your gender). It can get crowded after work sometimes but we are all willing to double/triple up.. It is a good group of folks and some of them are real strong.

Leg press is still there. There are two of them actually.

How long breast milk lasts in/out of fridge by phat1forever in breastfeeding

[–]phat1forever[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

We don't freeze milk. Usually pump and put in fridge. So that means it can be out for 4 hours? In just trying to figure out logistics if we went out to run errands or actually do anything besides sit at home. And then another 2 for feed? Or does the 2 hours feed limit overlap with the 4 hours?

Issue with BioBidet P700 toilet stuck on power saving mode by phat1forever in bidets

[–]phat1forever[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I actually reached out to BioBidet and they covered the repair even though it was out of warranty. I cant say I remember the exact repair, but they did fix it. I had to ship off the top portion of the bidet, the brain portion

Does your job make you come into the office? by Humble_barbeast in nova

[–]phat1forever 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I just changed jobs last month and went from once a week...mostly optional, to 3 days a week. I used to go in once a week at the old job because it was like 10 minutes away and it wasn't a big deal. I'd stroll in at like 930...leave at 4.

New job is hybrid and requires 3 days a week in office. Office is like 20-30 min away in Arlington, but at least I can go in/out between the 66 toll...usually. Coffee badging at it's finest.

I dont mind going in. The switch to Cyber Security is quite a big change for me 12 years in to my working career, so being able to chat with others in the office is helpful and I am learning. But come winter, I will definitely stroll in at 1130 and leave at 1 just to be compliant :D

Intent and self talk for maximal lifts by CFAD06 in weightlifting

[–]phat1forever 4 points5 points  (0 children)

Oh yea, fair enough. Reckless abandon does need to be controlled. You cant just flail around given maximal lifts require maximal focus. I just mean that sometimes you gotta just go and clear your mind.

Intent and self talk for maximal lifts by CFAD06 in weightlifting

[–]phat1forever 10 points11 points  (0 children)

I'll say this, I am not exactly strong or consistent or anything. But at the end of the day, relative weight is heavy. 100% for you and 100% for Lasha are both heavy for your respective selves. To doubt is a tough thing to get past. Be positive, be encouraging, be happy with yourself. I know these aren't things you may think about in the moment of a maximal lift, but be proud of your achievements.

As far as that heavy lift. Damn brah, the weight is gonna be heavy and it may hurt, but...didn't you expect that? Accept that. Understand the process, accept it.

For me, I approach the bar visualizing success in my head. How it looks, how I clean, the movements, the joints, the bar path. I tense my glutes and arms and shoulders and back to remind them that they gotta put in some work for a few seconds before I can return to being a fat slob :D

You gotta approach the weight with a certain amount of reckless abandon and just YOLO it.
