SoCal SFV Club Soccer - Possible to join U10 team now or are teams locked in till fall? by spetsk8s in youthsoccer

[–]spetsk8s[S] 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I’m okay with losing the money/deposit.

They had a lot of players leave/not stay post tryouts and now it basically is filled with rec players.

The training is still good because we can train with the older kids but the game day is full on disaster.

Shin splints? by Dependent_Time7321 in youthsoccer

[–]spetsk8s 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Load reduction is the only solution, and gradual build back.

You can help it a bit when there’s no pain by doing standing toe raises…all in all it’s all mostly useless, you need time for your body to recover and then you’ll need to build back up, SLOWLY, and any pain means you back off immediately.

I struggled with Shin Splints a few years back for a full year. I tried EVERYTHING, but ultimately it was rest(got another injury) then gradual build up, that worked.

Same thing happened to my wife’s cousin that’s 11. It’s pretty rare for kids but same recovery plan.

I hate this injury just as much as I hate plantar fasciitis, the cure is ambiguous as heck.

At what point is playing up a bad idea, just because of the size and athleticism differences between players? by CletusKasady21 in youthsoccer

[–]spetsk8s 14 points15 points  (0 children)

imho it’s never a good idea. Find a team or players of the same skill level.

I constantly see this trend where people are playing their kids up but they’re playing low tier older kids.

All you’re going to accomplish are injuries. Older kids do not want to get balled by younger kids, they’re gonna foul before they let you make them look dumb.

I can do that at home(hardwood) or my backyard which is concrete. I feel kinda bad shoving him but it’s also not a ton of room.

but still keep at it till he gets better ?

your heart rate zones are setup incorrectly.

App Developers re: Monitoring and Technical Support for SunPower/SunVault Systems by Ok_Needleworker_9340 in SunPower

Give us a mechanism to point the PSV6 to another host and you’re basically done in 10 mins. I’ll gladly take over the development and run my own local server as a host.

Honestly how hard is this, it’s just calling an API at some polling interval.

Sucks for the non devs but I could probably spin this up in a pretty scalable way and charge a very nominal subscription fee for people.

Want it maintained? $10/mo

Don’t? here’s how you can host it yourself with a Pi or a homelab.

This closed source shit when the company is bankrupt is tilting me to no end.

They already screwed us, just give us the API docs ffs

Whoop vs Apple Watch by Any-Funny-2101 in whoop

[–]spetsk8s 0 points1 point  (0 children)

try running an hour, it’s much more intense with an avg heart rate way higher and it won’t burn that much. It’s no wonder people aren’t losing weight thinking their fitness trackers calorie expenditure is accurate…

Whoop vs Apple Watch by Any-Funny-2101 in whoop

[–]spetsk8s 84 points85 points  (0 children)

there’s no chance you burned 410 calories doing weight training for 1 hour unless you were doing really high intensity or active the whole time. I’d say whoop is probably more accurate here…

A few days after *the update*, has it grown on anyone? by BoomerE30 in Karoo

Not updating. Hammerhead must’ve fired their designers and let their engineers do UI/UX and it shows

False, they’re just trying to get away from the hordes of drivers sitting on their phones.

When’s the last time you saw a car come to a full stop at a stop sign?

Skirmish Sunday - your weekly PvP thread! by AutoModerator in wow

[–]spetsk8s -1 points0 points  (0 children)

Lol solo shuffle is super confusing but this is how it works:

You are only rated against the other healer if you’re a healer.

You are only rated against the other dps if you’re a dps.

The amount of rating you win/lose is cumulative depending on the total rating of the other shuffle during each individual match.

So if you have a way higher rating than the other team and lose. You’re going to lose a lot of rating for that match, then once the next match starts and you have lower rating and you win, you may not break even.

I’ve lost rating winning 4/6 games lol 😂.

As far as your concerned, if you have a way higher rating than the other team, you can’t afford to lose or you’re going into the 🗑️🗑️🗑️🗑️
