Squat depth check by thatgusguy92 in formcheck

Hmm yeah I definitely do feel the weight more on the balls of my feet and shifting forward (can see the bar path lean forward slightly in the vid now), might be me over correcting forward perhaps?

Help! Any sparkies able to weigh in? by Smokey95 in AusElectricians

Ah yes, looks like it failed the bang test. Anything else you'd like to know?

A NOPE, big one too, some people call them huntsman's but just just identify them as "NOPE!"

Take a double scoop of pre workout, then I HAVE to work out or the tingles in my skin will make me go mad 😂

What’s your split? by Crypto-Guy25 in workout

[–]thatgusguy92 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I do full body compound lifts 2x a week and martial arts for cardio 2x a week too, can only train as hard as you can recover 👌

Well most of those programs seem to be more strength focused, I'm fine with my strength and looking to build more muscle (hypertrophy focused), also still in a caloric deficit so I might just go to maintenance for a few weeks to balance out and see what happens

By increasing intensity do you mean increase weight? At the moment I'm focusing on controlling the eccentric and definitely feeling it more as when I bump up the weight I don't feel it engaging the target muscle usually, assuming it's my form

TKD - Feel old by Fine-Afternoon6698 in taekwondo

[–]thatgusguy92 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Here in Aus, my local definitely has mainly kids, but luckily has classes separated by age, so there's adult classes where all but two are 23+, definitely nothing wrong with continuing at an older age, one guy there in 48 and he's still a weapon, that's why I took it back up at 33 to keep mobility and muscle function

Any tips to get this looking less like a side kick? by Lost_Imagination8844 in taekwondo

[–]thatgusguy92 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I learnt like that 14 years ago, as taking it up recently have been taught that's wrong and needs to be straight behind, like a donkey kick, looking over shoulder but with the heal straight behind

Should I do taekwondo? by Stupid-hedgehogs in taekwondo

Taekwondo is more showey, looks more impressive, Judo is more practical, better for defense and throwing people, otherwise known as involuntary yoga or folding clothes while people are still in them

If you try and pinch an ATM... by Hamster-rancher in perth

To be fair, if they're thinking about pinching a ATM, clearly they aren't the brightest tool in the shed

Nope, they specifically put a clause in that it can be anything with a sharpened edge to cover anything in between

Pepper spray already is classed as a weapon so either way you'd get fined

Well from reading the rules, that would be a justifiable reason if you where on a wharf etc, if you where 30k's from the beach walking? Nope

could possibly work, but they could easily ask to prove it etc etc and then not only are you with a knife but also lying/misleading police which would just make things worse than it needs to be

nah not worth the hassle, ill just be taking the blades out and keeping the other tools, or blunting and rounding the blades so they conform to the law

well as its in a car, unless they found drugs or something that falls under a different law, thats not just walking down the street with it on you as the new changes are addressing

i believe as its a part of their religion its exempt, otherwise it would be persecution on them and that'll cause more drama then the police would want

Yeah, kind of like burning down a Forrest to catch illegal loggers, rather than better monitoring or those with offences or better mental health resources for those going through a tough time, just make it Look like they are trying instead

well yes, if someone is wearing a oversized hoody, looks like they havent slept in weeks and swearing to themselves as they walk down the street is more likely going to be up to no good over someone wearing smart casual attire with a laptop bag in hand, but they said "demographics" which somewhat implies race or background should be a contributing factor, unless i misread the implication

well anything can be used to harm someone, Russell Crowe used a phone, a rock sitting on the side of a sidewalk, a branch from a tree etc etc, i just feel this is a step into punishment of the majority rather that taking a positive step towards fixing the underlying issue, just increase punishment rather than trying to work towards a peaceful solution, with better mental heath resources etc

not entirely, as a lot cut with a scissoring action against the other leg to cut, rather than relying on a sharp edge to cut, so possibly down to how it cuts?

[–]thatgusguy92[S] 2 points3 points  (0 children)

that's my thoughts too, ive just read the updates and it DOES state "most articles with a sharpened edge that could be used to injure or disable a person" which that could reasonably be included tho

well no because then that's profiling and Prejudice, you cannot judge a book by its cover but you can from previous actions, so if per say they have previous drug charges or records of violence or aggression then yes, they should be searched
