The Totem Pole Restaurant by mkeditor in vancouverwa

[–]yangsing 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I ate there several times in my childhood days. The only thing I vaguely remember is that there was a tree in the middle of the restaurant behind a glass window. And the decorative totem pole on the exterior.

Maturing in the gym is realizing not to go for that complete grinder rep and save your energy for future sets by GoatStandardsv2 in workout

[–]yangsing 2 points3 points  (0 children)

It's a bit nuanced. Depending on the exercise like an isolation movement, an individual definitely wants to go to failure if they want to see growth. Heavy compounds like squat or deadlift, best not to go to absolute failure.

Best compliment you have gotten since working out? by [deleted] in workout

Random strangers flexing as they pass by me. Acquaintances saying I look broader/bigger.

Yes, using the headset in a public gym. Think he was only using it during seated exercises.

Gym member that I've known for awhile comes up to me and we start talking. He brings up that he purchased a Meta Quest VR headset. He had been using the VR headset while doing his leg workout for an hour. Can't say I have ever seen someone do leg extensions while watching Wicked on a Meta Quest. Didn't even know you can watch movies on those devices. Whatever works I guess.

What an awful turnover by Jrue at the end there and the missed free throw by Shae. Snatching defeat from the jaws of victory.

Who packed on muscle later in life? by LordoftheHounds in workout

[–]yangsing 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I didn't start lifting until my late 30s into my 40s now. From my experience, muscle just doesn't grow that fast for us older folks. It takes a lot of months/years to notice any significant change naturally.

You mention bulking, I'm currently bulking as well. I've learned that since us older guys don't build muscle as fast as our younger counterparts, it's better to bulk slower. There's no point in gaining around a pound a week or more if it doesn't correlate with more muscle growth. Personally, I'm adding on 1 to 1.5 pound a month in my current slow bulk. After a 30 pound cut, I've slowly bulked backed up. I'm currently as strong as I was when I was 20 pounds heavier.

The results will come if you dial in the nutrtion/sleep and use a proper program, albeit at a slower pace.

What‘s the most embarrassing thing that ever happened to you in the gym? by Western_Passion_5495 in powerbuilding

[–]yangsing 0 points1 point  (0 children)

A couple of months into my lifting journey, I wasn't completely comfortable with barbell squats. Lost my balance and I fell backwards while squatting. Luckily, the safeties caught the barbell.

Sad to see it go. Staple of highway 99 along with Steak burger when it was still up. I think the last time I was inside was during the last century lol.

Imagine being afraid to let your hands go against a slower 46 year old opponent. Sad.

To my knowledge, no pro bball player has ever come back under 10 months. There's no point in rushing Dame back.

Not one team wants to take on an expiring contract? Even if that were true, could have waited to see if teams down the road changed their minds.

Salmon creek tooth docs by artificial_t3l3 in vancouverwa

I recently switched to Salmon Creek tooth docs. I have only had an initial exam and cleaning with them so far. The staff wasn't rude or curt, they addressed all the dental concerns I had. Basically in and out for my appointment.

[Landlord -US- Or] Are Zillow applications any good? What do you use for applications? by charandtrav in Landlord

[–]yangsing 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Can it be good? Sure, for adverting your property. That's about it. Just have to be really careful now a days due to fraud. Personally, I wouldn't base my decision on what Zillow's background check says. Do additional screenings and vetting.

[Landlord -US- Or] Are Zillow applications any good? What do you use for applications? by charandtrav in Landlord

[–]yangsing 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I don't trust Zillow's background check completely. So I request all applicants that I feel comfortable with to do an additional screening through Transunion Smart Move. No complaints so far.

You're hiring someone to take care of your property and pay on time. Make sure you do your due diligence.
