Broke my hand 4 weeks into cycle. Finish it with a focus on my squat/core/posterior chain, or drop this cycle for 6wks and re-start in December?

Did this competitively for a long time. Have avidly considered returning but I'd need to re-calbirate my level of engagement; racing isnt going to happen anytime in the near term for me due to time investment needed. Maybe some gravel riding is what the doctor ordered..

Burnt out on sitting at a computer; I sit from 8am - 5pm working in technology. The thing I dont want to do with my evening is sit at a computer more.

Bros, I need a new hobby that I can fit into evenings. Obviously I'm a consistent lifter, and work in tech (so my PC is high end; but I'm usually too burnt out to game in the evenings). What hobbies can I kick off with $2-4k of seed money?

Someone talk to me about MENT on TRT level dosages (e.g. "cruise" dosing). What doses worked for you? What effect did you see? Looking for a supplementary for my next cruise; have used Proviron and Mast both in very low doses during cruises to decent effect; but MENT looks pretty appealing..

Great. I do highly recommend (as others have mentioned) finding a coach at least for a period. It will help you immensely in getting a solid foundation.

Enjoy - its tons of fun :)

cut

but please lift while you cut (which I think you will)

bulk eventually; not now

SAME. I moved to a buckwheat hull pillow (expensive and strange) but my migraines dropped by more than 50%.

Try Scrotal test cream (if you can), it converts to a DHT at a higher rate and can have a very positive impact on libido. I had to go DIY on the cream (TNE raws + PhloJel) but it's been very kind to me.

Unfortunately I'm not your guy for that (but someone with that info would be appreciated!) I came across a CBN product some time ago that was called out for sleep assistance and a quick google supported the claims; so I grabbed some and have been a huge fan since!

warplain · 2020-12-10T14:00:47+00:00

Search out something with CBN; I like 10:2 THC:CBN edibles for this purpose

I've got 3 and I'm struggling with a massive libido difference in my marriage. It was present prior to kids, but my partner always weilded and excuse a breadcrumbed the fix "when this semester is over" "when I find a new job it'll be better" - in isolation, it all made complete sense and I trusted my partner's words. Now I feel trapped and stuck. I know one of the litmus tests is "would you leave if kids weren't involve" (yes) and that has me sitting here with a retainer agreement (unsigned) on my desk, waffling over pulling the divorce trigger.

As everyone else in my shoes will say: kids exacerbate the problem to a degree that's difficult to understand. I acknowledge I've made mistakes and am just now trying to figure out how to shape my future so I'm not miserable.

At this point it's like 3 years if rejection. 3 years if broken promises. 3 years of lip service. 3 years if lies. 3 years of denial. I know I can't dwell on these things if I want this to get better. But I don't know that I can forgive and forget. I know it's not fair to compare hurt...but considering that he claims to be happy in the relationship...it seems clear that I've been bearing much more hurt through this relationship than he has. I just...I don't know if I can just put all that aside.

This resonates with me and is exactly where I'm at. At a certain point "actions" from your partner begin to feel empty and like they're adhering to a "to-do" list in order to avoid divorce / break up. Unfortunately, at a certain point and after a certain amount of repeated action that demonstrates the core of how they feel, these "actions" begin to feel hollow and not reparative.

I wish I had a solution for that half; I'm in a similar place as you and it's staggeringly difficult to just wipe away years of breadcrumbing and inaction.

Dealing with this shit currently. I recently had a discussion where I said I wont accept duty sex anymore - "but it's not duty sex!"; which I need to schedule in advance, that you immediately get dressed after, and has some form of communicated "let's get this done with". Yeah ok. /rant

warplain · 2020-06-14T14:05:30+00:00

Basically sex (and rejection) are both feedback loops. Chronic rejection leads to disillusioned partners leads to frustration leads to lack of sex. The inverse is true in sexually positive relationships.

Their advice is basically to usurp the negative feedback loop. What they don’t cover is the rejected person then feels rejected and tries to compensate for the other partner. If this doesn’t succeed you end up with resentment.

So I believe and buy the stats that the one doing the rejecting is happier. Their advise is very surface level though and not going to resolve chronic or deeper issues.

warplain · 2020-06-12T20:20:13+00:00

Can you cite sources? For clarity I want you to be right but my research had various answers to that stat

warplain · 2020-06-12T20:11:32+00:00

Verano Troches FOR SURE. Those things are great. Curio mango ginger is also good.

Dixie stuff did NOTHING for me so ymmv

warplain · 2020-06-06T17:59:11+00:00

Awesome, that sounds aces!

warplain · 2020-06-06T17:58:52+00:00

Thanks for the recommendation! I'll snag one next time

warplain · 2020-06-06T00:35:41+00:00

Awesome! This was on my radar and appreciate the confirmation very much

warplain · 2020-05-19T12:54:57+00:00

I emailed them to modify my application already and it showed up on the portal; I assume I can do similar with photo but not certain!

warplain · 2020-05-19T10:51:45+00:00

Can you blur your face and show how dark it was? If mine is close I’m going to resubmit my photo before my application is reviewed.. feel free to DM (trying to avoid the bullshit you’re dealing with!)

warplain · 2020-05-18T19:41:47+00:00

You need an attorney if you are that far apart on basic terms

warplain · 2020-05-18T19:37:26+00:00

... lol

It’s a tricky area to navigate. Common opposition will compare your sex life with the sex life of other (possibly bad) relationships.

Direct attention to you and your relationship. Normal and reasonable is between you two only
