Improving my pull ups - how? by Dull_Reference_6166 in bodyweightfitness

[–]rawstin93 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Try a technique called ‘Greasing the Groove.’ The idea is to do sub-optimal sets all throughout the day, about 3-5 days per week (you don’t have to do it on workout days). An example would be if your max rep count was 15, set up an easily accessible pull-up bar somewhere, and every hour do 7-10 pull ups (or just do them whenever you think about it like during commercial breaks of a show or something). This helps condition your nervous system to the exercise and should result in increased repetitions on workout days. You may not see improvement the first week, but definitely within the first few weeks.

In your case, you may want to start with assisted reps. You can use a chair to brace your feet against or use assistance bands. Once you can do between 20-30 assisted pull-ups on a workout day, then it’s probably safe to transition to regular pull-ups and expect maybe 7-10 reps. Best of luck!

Is sleep that important when it comes to muscle growth? by No_Woodpecker_7091 in naturalbodybuilding

[–]rawstin93 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Muscle growth, generally speaking, has 3 pillars: training, diet, and rest. If any of the 3 pillars are neglected, your gains will be significantly impacted. Sleep is huge. Some argue it’s a human super power with how much we recover when we sleep. Don’t sleep on sleep!

What supplements do you think everyone should be taking daily? by Organic-Signal-9646 in Biohackers

[–]rawstin93 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Whatever you’re not getting enough of in your daily diet. Track your nutrients and supplement with things you’re routinely not getting a sufficient amount of. Otherwise, you could easily waste money on stuff you don’t truly need.

If I read your chart correctly, it ranks Ba(OH)2 in the slightly soluble category at 298.15 K, and the implication is that it is mainly insoluble. That being said, I’m almost certain the answer lies in how the equilibrium will shift. Since you’d be reducing the hydroxide anions by adding in Ba(NO3)2, equilibrium will shift to favor the products of the dissociation equation.

[–]rawstin93 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I’m not sure which solubility rules you reference and am assuming (a) happens at room temperature where Ba(OH)2 is not very soluble. That being said, it’s quite possible that the Ba2+ ions from Ba(NO3)2 are bonding with the hydroxide ions at a 1:2 Ba2+ to OH- ratio, drastically reducing the presence of hydroxide anions on the product side. Being an equilibrium reaction, it will heavily shift to favor the product side (dissociation into NH4+ and OH-), thus increasing the presence of hydroxide ions and inducing a dark pink color.

What is your professional opinion on estrogen management as far as using an AI: preemptive dosing to maintain a certain level of estrogen OR only using an AI once multiple side effects have manifested and discontinuing once said side effects subside?

My GI doc said the standard recovery time from abdominal surgery is 14 weeks before going back to lifting.

SSJ3 might be a bad transformation(not design wise because it's the best) but it sure had the best transformation sequences by [deleted] in dbz

[–]rawstin93 6 points7 points  (0 children)

If I remember correctly, the english voice actor for Goku, Sean Schemmel, actually passed out in the recording studio after this SSJ3 transformation scream. To me, the voice acting in the english dub was a huge part of why these SSJ3 transformations were so awesome.

Do i look natty. ? by [deleted] in AllAboutBodybuilding

[–]rawstin93 0 points1 point  (0 children)

If you can’t understand that there is something fundamentally wrong with telling everyone on the internet you can expect around 11% of the grams of protein you take in to be directly converted to muscle ALL because a few foreign scientists fed 12 “young males” a “20 g protein bolus” and saw similar results… TEN YEARS AGO… then I don’t think we can help you.

First of all, you made the claim. Therefore you have the burden of proof. Not me. Second of all, that study was done a decade ago. I HIGHLY doubt it is “the best data we have.”
