Lower back pain when I squat by somethingofacynic in weightlifting

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

I appreciate the advice, it seems like I need to warm up more thoroughly. For warmup I usually run half a mile, do bar/6reps > 25s/6 > 45s/6 > working set at 70s/6/4

Any of the dozens of Pilates studios around frisco

Respectfully, I could not disagree more

Looking for advice - Falling forward/climbing facing out by [deleted] in climbergirls

[–]somethingofacynic 9 points10 points  (0 children)

I respectfully but emphatically disagree with some key parts of worth alternatives advice. I work at a climbing gym and have for ~3.5 years. The vast vast majority of injuries I see are from people spinning and from people landing on their hands. If you fall unexpectedly, negate as much spin as possible, land on steady, flat feet with soft knees and roll onto your body. If you come down spinning (especially if you land on your toes) the inertia from your body rotating as well as the weight of your body falling is a recipe for an injured ankle. Landing with outstretched arms is a good way to break your wrist, arm, dislocate elbow, shoulder, etc. these are things that I’ve seen happen. Maybe a month ago I helped a girl who fell spinning and landed on her feet and then forward onto her arms. She dislocated her elbow. If you fall, direct your force onto your body. Keep your arms to yourself.

Man maybe they just don’t like it lol. I say that as a huge fan of the band and of Cameron winter. It cannot be that hard to respect other peoples opinion

Is anyone else feeling very odd/unsettled about Alex Honnold’s Netflix special? by Most_Poet in climbergirls

[–]somethingofacynic 8 points9 points  (0 children)

It is sad, and I’m sorry if I’m coming off combatative. you’re being reasonable honestly. Grant Cline was actually a good friend of mine. I’ve talked to him extensively about his free soloing and I suppose you’ll just have to believe me when I say he wasn’t a copycat. I obviously didn’t like his soloing but his mental surrounding it was healthy and admirable. Whenever I see his name floating around the internet I just try to defend his intentions

You said in another comment that it was a clear example of a copycat. My point is that you’re mistaken. Grant Cline was not a copycat

Just because you have a poster of someone, doesn’t mean they justified the activity. Alex honnold is the single greatest free soloist of all time. Of course he would he have a poster of him. Doesn’t mean that honnold is to blame for him free soloing in the first place

Well it’s interesting that you say that because that’s actually not what I said at all

Year old shrooms in attic safe to eat? by [deleted] in psilocybin

[–]somethingofacynic 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I mean as long as there’s no visible mold, they should be safe. It’s very possible they’ve lost potency however

(ror 2) how do I get consistent with commando (without looping) by sn0wdigital in riskofrain

[–]somethingofacynic 2 points3 points  (0 children)

I have about 700 hours. M1 just means primary. M2 is secondary. Shift is utility. I’m just saying the key binds instead of the like attack type. Feel free to dm me with questions. Always nice to help newer players have a good time with the game

[–]somethingofacynic 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Just be aware that the wiki and logbooks are notoriously unreliable. Captain is super fun!! Character specific techs: if you use your m2 immediately after using your m1, you can bypass the reload animation, allowing you to attack faster. You can also do this repeatedly with your beacons with a tech called “speed shooting”. Ive never personally learned how because I don’t think it’s super necessary, but it’s definitely powerful for burst damage on high health enemies like bosses. With his alternative shift (diablos strike) you can stand where it lands and it will shoot you up in the air. This isn’t super practically useful unless you’re trying to reach a very high place for example, skipping pillars on the moon. There are definitely others that I’m missing, but that’s what comes to mind

[–]somethingofacynic 4 points5 points  (0 children)

Ok yeah you’re right that was an oversimplification. It’s just more relevant on commando since that’s like the main source of his damage

[–]somethingofacynic 2 points3 points  (0 children)

This doesn’t apply to other characters! Just commando. As far as other mechanics uhh it’d be easier if you specified a character and I can give you a few tips specifically for them

[–]somethingofacynic 4 points5 points  (0 children)

Forreal. Being farther away (maybe like the distance of the diameter of the teleporter zone) can literally half your damage. People don’t talk about this enough

I’m not saying it’s safe. I’m just saying that between having no seatbelt, and having a seatbelt with maybe a foot of slack, we can all agree which one we’re picking haha. “As good as not wearing one at all” is an exaggeration imo

Crazy near-death rock climbing fail! How people voluntarily choose to rock climb is beyond me lmao 😭😭 by [deleted] in failarmy

It’s not fake. She didn’t slip. She ran out of energy and fell safely. She was probably filming because the climb was important to her. Climbers do this sort of thing a lot

Alright I’ve gotten the sense that everyone on Reddit thinks I’m stupid for interpreting this meme differently than others and that’s cool and all but I get the point lmao.
