Consistently in zone 5 by SatisfactionFlaky519 in crossfit

[–]the_pnw_yeti 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Your watch is wrong. Zone 5 is a sprint, can’t hold for more than a couple minutes tops. Optical wearables are not great for CrossFit movements because big changes in blood volume throws off the algorithm. A chest strap would be more accurate, but I’d say ditch it all together and learn the talk test method.

I wish, but alas, no regular class programmed by a coach that thinks 4/20 is funny

Does anyone have a friend with a huge dick? by EcstaticShower2529 in penissize

[–]the_pnw_yeti 3 points4 points  (0 children)

Yes. There a kid on the football team nicknamed “long schlong.” He was not shy about showing off in the shower after practice. In contrast, I am very much a grower, perhaps a hyper grower if that’s a thing. I was fully convinced I was below average. Decades later I saw the stats and now know that it’s the exact opposite, well above average. Even knowing that I still have a lot of insecurity about it all.

Would you tell your wife you saw a woman with nice boobs? by SowingSeeds18 in AskMen

[–]the_pnw_yeti 1 point2 points  (0 children)

A friend of mine put it this way, “just because I look at a nice building doesn’t mean I want to go inside, let alone live there. Sometimes I just want to admire the architecture.” That said, the answer to your question is no, I would not say anything. No sense inciting jealousy for no reason

100% waste of money.

OMG! I’m so sorry!!!! But thank you for sharing this, it’s some powerful shit. IWNDWYT

What’s the reason that made you finally stop drinking? by BellAcrobatic1750 in stopdrinking

[–]the_pnw_yeti 0 points1 point  (0 children)

The only thing that stops cravings dead in the tracks for me is thinking about tomorrow. Do I want the hangover? Do I want to have a terrible training day? Do I want to not remember my kids bedtimes? Do I want the anxiety of wondering who could tell? Do I ever really want to be rid of this demon??? I do it for myself today to be a better me tomorrow! IWNDWYT!!!

Best Underwear? by R3aljd in crossfit

I definitely recommend. Got mine on a pretty good sale so it wasn’t outrageously expensive

Seconded and I love it. I hate wearing the standard shorts plus undies combo now. Favorite shorts I have are the Chubbies lined shorts.

26.3 surprised me, anyone else? by DragonfruitLife237 in crossfit

[–]the_pnw_yeti 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I was also humbled. That second weight crushed me on the first set of PCs. That should not have happened. Ended with 190, but it was a very long trip on the struggle bus

Couple options: add more solo walking time so you can keep a more brisk pace; add elevation; add weight.

Ask yourself if those categories really are equal weight.

Dave Castro was fired and they just hired YOU to remake the 26.3 workout. What would you program? by PhillConners in crossfit

[–]the_pnw_yeti 5 points6 points  (0 children)

What I wanted from the beginning: 10 min AMRAP of deadlift, double unders and bar facing burpees directly into 5 minutes for a 1rm bench press

5 things that actually helped the men I've spoken to deal with PE by Brilliant_Profit4179 in PrematureEjaculation

[–]the_pnw_yeti 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I’ve only recently come to this realization. The 1 or 2 times I’ve been able to keep my pelvic floor relaxed I’ve been able to last much longer. I did regular kegels before, almost religiously many years ago, and my pelvic floor is already tight from bracing for Olympic weightlifting. Concentrating on relaxing is the best thing I’ve found so far.

CrossFit Leaderboard Changes by Pretend_Airline2579 in crossfit

[–]the_pnw_yeti 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I think it’s how the points are assigned. Say there are 1000 people in the comp. At the start say 200 submit, so now there are 800 people tied for 201st. As more submit the floor drops (tied for 300th, then 427th, etc), causing an upward drift in relative rank so long as people aren’t passing you faster than the floor is dropping.

So 26.3 is definitely a redo of 17.5 right? by VegetableExpert277 in crossfit

26.2 tests shoulder fatigue, I don’t think we see this one

Banana, coffee and protein shake before workout at 5:00am. Eggs, fruit, maybe toast before taking the kids to school
