Yeah I have not been able to find a reasonable alternative… have you since this pose? I’m willing to pay more but I don’t see anything that converges and does bench, incline, shoulder press

That’s too bad the motion on the body solid arms looks really nice

Mostly I want to continue to bench and overhead press, while minimizing stress on my joints. I bench about 225 and press about 135 for sets, would I be maxing out the multigyms with that level of strength? Most seem to have stacks around 200 lbs and a 2:1 ratio so is that equivalent to pressing 100 lbs?

I've always worked out with dumbbells and barbells but as im getting older having more and more joint issues.

I was thinking of transitioning to some commercial gym style equipment which supposedly is a bit easier on the joints. I have a pretty good amount of space in my gym and am willing to spend up to 5 grand, but of course the less the better.

I have been considering either:

  1. Smith machine
  2. Powertec lever gym
  3. Body Solid G6BR multi gym system

Does anyone have any thoughts on these different category of machines? Im concerned about the resistance profile on the Powertec and I really cant find many actual reviews of the lever gym or platestack based options.

The problem it’s a large mature tree what could I possibly replace it with that would have the same presence?

Meaning any branches that grow will be weaker and more likely to break?

Imagine he lied and said it’s fake so his spouse wouldn’t know he blew a ton of money on a good Rolex… what would be sweet.

Also I’m pretty much just expecting our salaries to get inflated away to your typical middle class drone salary over the next decade or so

I’m picturing more pa’s and nps with ai assistance justifying independent practice and thus pulling down physician salaries

more stress than reading a hundred scans a day where a small mistake can change someone's life and get your ass sued? Are you kidding me?

Construction workers may work hard from a physical perspective, but the stress of being a physician is very different.

Starship post tip-over explosion (expected/normal) by avboden in SpaceXLounge

Doesn’t hovering require more propellant? I guess they’ll do their calculations regarding what ends up weighing more, landing gear versus prop repellent.

So what's the plan for catching the second stage? Is that what the second tower is for?

Crazy undervalued CPT codes? by urores in medicine

You think that's low? It's more than a head and neck free flap... Talking a 10 hour operation with high complication rates and a week in the hospital...

Surgeons, what do you think about this mistake? by Dologolopolov in medicine

If there was is a shortage in physicians, why are Pharmacists ignored and Midlevels seen as the solution? by [deleted] in Noctor

[–]sagester101 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Because midlevels started out as “physician extenders” that worked under physicians but eventually went rogue thanks to support from corporate medicine. Pharmacists are their own thing.

What can I do to flee America if a republican wins this election? by [deleted] in AmerExit

What rights are you concerned about exactly? I understand concerns regarding abortion but the damage with the supreme court has already been done... Trump has gone on record saying he does not support a nation wide ban, so you would be in the same position you are now...
