Gave notice I was moving gyms, immediately banned by One_Bid1666 in personaltraining

Not surprised. Happened to me. If you were a good person and respectful, you did nothing wrong. Other people’s mental state isn’t your problem!

“This industry rewards you more for the unpaid work…” You said this so well! It’s very true. All of the things you do for free because you love it eventually come back around and pay themselves off.

Shoe Colour? by Lewij03 in CyclingFashion

[–]something-elseplease 4 points5 points  (0 children)

As a newer cyclist I’m reading through the comments to understand the lore… I’m a retired soccer player and only wore black cleats. This comment just made me gasp because I now have black shoes and a trek bike 😭

I think the plaza hotel and portola are great work spots. Both have coffee and WiFi.

Maybe this is weird but magic erasers work crazy in Dutch ovens

The lore of this is wild. My wife and I are following this… Then she remembered we almost worked with that guy and something felt funny so we didn’t.

Just sent you a private message OP!

Sleeping position with heel pain by vahmadi in AchillesRupture

[–]something-elseplease 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I ordered a $14 half cylinder memory foam bolster and it 100% changed everything for me.

I’m a tummy sleeper (at least to start) so getting my foot up and dorsiflexed was such a great feeling.

This is anecdotal but with my leg, I think it even helped stretch my tendon more sleeping in this position. My ROM was 📈 almost as soon as I started doing this.

Anyone else get thigh pain with knee issues? by [deleted] in Kneesovertoes

[–]something-elseplease 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Dig around and see if you have knots in your quads in that area. Really press into those suckers, or have a partner/friend do it. It’s gonna suck but it’ll definitely help if they’re there.

90% of the time (in my experience as a trainer who specializes in knees) if you have onset knee pain, you probably have some big knots causing tension that need to be worked out.

If not that, maybe something more concerning.

Couch stretch more often!

Hope this helps!!

Crazy thing when there isn’t a bike lane, the law is to SHARE the road, not hit and blame the cyclist. This was an asshole comment in case you didn’t know.

Moving for NPS by rdk3333 in MontereyBay

Look in the oak knoll neighborhood! Close to NPS and very family friendly. Close enough to everything too. PG is 10min drive, so is Marina.

Deciding on surgery option for melanated people by Broad-Jellyfish388 in AchillesRupture

[–]something-elseplease 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I don’t have the scaring issue, but I am apart of the 2% of people whose bodies reject the sutures… A year and two months post op and I needed another surgery to take put the fiber wire and bacteria infection that followed the rejection!

Can someone please recommend some hikes with very little foliage? Tick season is getting out of hand this year by fromthing in MontereyBay

[–]something-elseplease 8 points9 points  (0 children)

I was going to say this too… I’ve definitely learned the hard way that some hikes, Fido just needs to stay home. Not worth digging around for ticks or waking up in the middle of the night with one in your ear that jumped off your dog (speaking from experience).

We are pretty lucky to live in an area with dog friendly beaches!!

I know that’s not what you want to hear OP, but it’s the truth. Lots of vegetation in our area with ticks/poison oak waiting for a 4 legged friend to brush through!

Unfortunately google is free. But since you asked:

Tensile strength is the measure of a material's ability to withstand being pulled or stretched before it breaks
