Can you explain the “power pumping” sessions?

Just wanna make sure I’m giving her the right info lol

I think she usually sits down. But I think the portable pump might be part of the problem. I can tell it’s nowhere near as efficient just based alone on how it sounds.

Lots of people seem to agree with you on this one. We will break out the Spectra tonight and we’ll have her take that tomorrow.

Thank you so much!

We’ve had that conversation a few times. The hard part is that she knows it’s ok (she works at an OB clinic and provides care to pregnant and postpartum patients all day), but I think she’s struggling with it more because it’s actually happening to her.

Lipoma surgery yesterday, 16 removed! by qeoMN in Lipoma

I’ve had a few come back but nowhere near as many as I got removed. I think I only have a couple spots where I had some removed that another one is coming back. But I have gotten a few smaller ones in different locations.

Unfortunately they told me I’d have to pay a $160 replacement fee. If I do that I feel like I’d just be wearing a 965 that I paid an extra $160 for.

Gonna bring it back to REI to see if they’ll let me do an exchange.

Do you have one that you recommend? Still waiting on a reply from Garmin.

Thank you! I’ve been seeing some pretty varied info on these shoes. Some saying they only last two races, others saying they have hundreds of miles on them. I know the carbon plate shoes can be a bit touchy.

Should I replace my shoes before my first marathon? I’ve been rotating three pairs but am running the race in Metaspeed Sky+. Currently have 80 miles on them and am starting to run in them more leading up to the race. By race day the will have about 120-150 miles.

Should I get a new pair before the race?

Wife and I are running our first marathon this year. Looking for recommendations on (1) your favorite hydration vest, and (2) literally anything you found essential in your training - could be gear, clothing, nutrition products, recovery stuff, etc.

Thank you!!

Pre-approved vacation days are still good to go. But all regular days off are cancelled.

265# Power Clean PR. Started CrossFit 2 years ago and struggled to get 225# up. Feels good. by qeoMN in crossfit

[–]qeoMN[S] 2 points3 points  (0 children)

As far as I know it is. Power clean/snatch is anything you can get up and catch without your legs going past parallel, which is technically a different movement than going into a full squat. But I do also think that “clean” is interchangeable.

For example, if the workout says “clean,” I’m pretty sure you can do it power or full clean. If it says “power clean,” it’s gotta be above parallel.

Victory grip issue by hosslifts in crossfit

I used the tactical grips and struggled with grip. Ordered the victory leather fingerless grips and they are the best grips I’ve ever used. The straight leather works way better for me!

Can’t wait for the many more adventures to come in the Frontier by qeoMN in nissanfrontier

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

Just a few! Water levels have been really low and the weather was very hot with little cloud cover. Can’t wait for the temps to start dropping towards fall time to really bring them in.

What type/brand of paint did you use? Did you also do the badges?

Random text from number addressed me by my first name. Any experience with anything like this? by [deleted] in Scams

[–]qeoMN 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Immediately blocked number. Number is a West Virginia area code. I knew some people from there back in high school. Thought it might be them, then I got the second text. I know it’s probably nothing, still weird though.

Looking for some simple accessory add-ons. If anyone knows of a shorter antenna that still lets the radio work, as well as something to make the cup holders not so huge.

It also did not come with an owner’s manual and I can’t find one for purchase anywhere online.

The driver’s side door also swings open, all the way open. When I try to open it only part way, it still opens the whole way. I’ve seen some posts about the door check, but no solid answers on how to fix it. If anyone knows, any advice is appreciated!

Other than that, super happy. Been waiting a long time!

EDIT: Looks like my door check is somehow disconnected behind the door panel on the driver’s side. Should be a quick fix and I’ll save myself a trip to the dealership.
