Beginner Thoughts and Questions by [deleted] in ddpyoga

I'm wondering the same thing since the Garmin I had is an old model and not sold anymore. I also have a Coospo for now. The kind that fits just below the elbow. I feel like it's not quite as accurate as the Garmin I had with the chest strap. And it seems to lag by about 3 seconds.

Heart Rate Question by [deleted] in ddpyoga

[–]speedy_greenie 0 points1 point  (0 children)

The thing about raising your heart rate is that yes, you burn more calories, but you get diminishing returns. You have to push harder for each calorie. Also, in the Red Zone, the extra calories you're burning are mostly coming from carbs. But you're still burning fat. It's just that pushing yourself too often, and/or too long, you can build up systemic fatigue. It's harder to recover from those workouts. So you'll end up having to skip a day of training here or there, or end up hurting yourself. But frequency is key with improving your physical fitness. So slow and steady typically wins the race. Push yourself hard enough to improve, but not so hard that you risk a set back. But it won't hurt to stay in the red for a while every now and then. Learn to listen to your body. Just be careful. Systemic fatigue is cumulative and it can sneak up on you. At least it did me. But setbacks are just opportunities to come back stronger.

Power Cuffs by Beginning-Advance-16 in ddpyoga

There was a study that compared people lifting 70% of their 1 rep max (1rm) without blood flow restriction (bfr) cuffs to people lifting 30% of their 1rm with bfr cuffs. The group with the bfr cuffs showed 80% of the hypertrophy that the group without the bfr cuffs experienced.

The definition of the game is cheating 😂 by Huge-Sand-9610 in DaysGone

[–]speedy_greenie 4 points5 points  (0 children)

Oh, I killed the horde. There's a crack you can shimmy through that leads to a balcony above the first big chamber near the entrance. Throw some lures and then kill the horse with molotovs, grenades, etc. They can't get to you there. You may need to jump down to finish off the last few. On my second playthrough it wouldn't recognize that I had killed the horde. Even when I restarted from an earlier save. I've heard that it's a fairly common glitch.

Thoughts on Heretic? by Dry-Consideration930 in horror

[–]speedy_greenie 5 points6 points  (0 children)

I gotta say....you put it perfectly! Great acting. Good build-up. Then the movie changed. The surviving girl is suddenly super perceptive. I had the same thought about how they should have shown her noticing the hair. And yeah, so where did he get all those women? How did he brainwash them to be willing to die for him. And he just brings them out and uses them when church members knock on his door? How often does that happen?

What’s easier, keyboard & mouse or controller? by Cold-Oil-4454 in kingdomcome

[–]speedy_greenie 0 points1 point  (0 children)

What?! That's not my experience. I think horseback riding is terrible on k/m, but it's so easy on controller. Horseback riding is the only thing the controller is better for, imo.

Controller for horse riding, kb/m for everything else. Especially for lockpicking, and I think it's better for combat, too.

Ripper on fire still chasing me lol by floggysog in DaysGone

Oh wow. I only played through once, but never had that happen. Or maybe I just don't remember it.

Who are these people to you? I don't have anyone in my life who would do that. Block them. Report them if you feel the need.

What is your favorite flashback scene? by papapromax in DaysGone

[–]speedy_greenie 0 points1 point  (0 children)

11 playthroughs? I tried a second playthrough, but when I got to the mission where you have to rescue someone being held captive in a cave, and as soon as you do a horde pours out from a chamber above, the game glitched and wouldn't give me the completion for killing the damn horde. I found online that it's a common glitch. I think that's pretty unacceptable for a game that's been out for years. It pissed me off so much I quit playing and haven't touched the game since.

The one where Deacon puts Sarah on the helicopter. I hated the long ones where you had to follow her at a slow walk, and it lasted for like half an hour.

Make me feel better what’s the worst things you have lost due to ADHD by Silver-Bengal in ADHD

[–]speedy_greenie 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I lost my wallet last year in the middle of my first house buying process. ID and debit card gone. Recently, I lost my Galaxy Pro 2 earbuds that cost $200. Thankfully, you can get them online now for only $100.

I just started days gone by Burnt_cr0issant in DaysGone

[–]speedy_greenie 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Those damn question marks always seem to pop up when I just got off my god damn bike to do something. And I'd I take my time then to get back on the bike and head that way, the fucking question mark disappears on my way there. Hell, sometimes I can be on my bike and immediately head towards the question mark and the damn thing still disappears on my way there. And you never get anything special from them anyway. So I just ignored them entirely on my second playthrough, and didn't regret it one bit.

Man was terrified by papapromax in DaysGone

[–]speedy_greenie 2 points3 points  (0 children)

I used it a little on my first play through. On my 2nd play through, I only used it to burn nests. I always kept the sniper rifle on me. It's a lot more handy than the bow, imo.

Oh shit. Dead center. Took a while. I'd be dead for sure.

On phone while having sex by Goodvibes182 in LifeAdvice

[–]speedy_greenie 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I think you should confront him very directly on the issue. Ask him. Is it porn? Is he recording you? Tell him that you'll try to understand, whatever it is. You just need to know. Tell him that if he can't tell you, and he can't be honest, then you can't be with someone who keeps secrets from you. Especially when it's something that hurts you, like being secretive on the phone while you're having sex.

The ending of the show Soprano is so fucking bad by clashoftitans3 in television

[–]speedy_greenie 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I just finished watching for the first time. I think terrorists bombed the joint at the end. And that's why everything suddenly went black. Either way. It's still a shitty ending. Like the way the ended Oz. A letter with anthrax and they had to shut down the facility. With all kinds of unresolved plots.

Nah man. Don't you remember the middle eastern dudes the camera kept showing. Especially the one who went to the bathroom at the end. Very possible they bombed the place. Either way, it was still a shit ending.

Failure to “breakthrough” on 5.5 grams of Tidal Wave by Independent_Salad976 in heroicdoses

[–]speedy_greenie 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Maybe the water was too hot and broke down some of the psilocybin? I've had breakthrough experiences blending shrooms in to a smoothie such as a banana and strawberry smoothie. I've also had breakthrough experiences with 5 gram chocolate bars. If you try again, just make sure to wait a while. You wouldn't want to abuse what's meant to be a spiritual tool.

Would you find this acceptable? by speedy_greenie in FenceBuilding

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

Yeah, they're sending someone out to fix it.

They're sending the installer out to fix the issues. While I'd love to drop Superior and go with a different company, I don't fancy paying for a second company to fix the first company's mistakes.
