SailorGoon I'm impressed by the elevation as well as the distance.

I'm in grad school and if your family hasn't gone through the process they likely won't be helpful.

I have had to get a hotel room to get away from my family and work on stuff. Otherwise, they pull you away any time they feel like it. To them, you're just sitting in front of a computer so it's difficult for them to see things from your perspective.

254, but leaner than I was at 245. Doing Deadlifts, squats, and bench on the same day is ridiculous, but it immediately shows when I sleep and eat enough protein. Muscle is developing mostly in my posterior chain, lower back, glutes and hamstrings. Pants are loose around my waist and tight around my legs. I'm faster on the bike and I went on a date last night and....she noticed the difference too!

Normally I average about 8 to 10 minutes of "exercise" but my watch got me up to 19. True I'm no longer taking long rides on the bike but it's very encouraging.

The UEFA Euros are gonna be my gym partner for the next few weeks. I'll lift watching the early matches and I'll implement cardio on Match Day 3 (When the first eliminations happen and they start the games at the exact same time). Copa America is also going to be fun to do cardio; those games will be at night so I'll do treadmill stuff without working in obscene heat. I'm lifting during the NBA Finals game 4 tonight

My Mom did a Peloton walking class and her heart rate got up to 129 avg when she was averaging 117 on a recumbent bike. Aside from a fall risk, it's a superior form of exercise.

Trump also looks and sounds like shit these days. He's always been scatterbrained but he's really low energy and focus now.

You can tell COVID and RSV have affected him. It takes 6 months for a senior to recover from RSV I hope he gets better I've seen it happen in people his age before.

I do work in all 50 states. Swing states are way more red than you may think. Many Trump voters are loud and there are many who are quiet. People have migrated as well. Blue voters are likely to not be registered in states they've moved to. That's going to impact this election a lot I think people who moved to other states for economic and political reasons will want to vote but won't be able to

DearS is like that

This is a good topic

I only found out there are chests for it. Like legit button entry chests for unlimited ammo / god mode etc. 30 years and only just found out now.

Could not have beaten the game without cheats.

The goal of the CGM is to understand how my parents can measure their glucose when dealing with prediabetes and help them lower blood glucose while their body still responds to insulin. They don't believe I say in regards to health because I'm currently overweight. They say if I can successfully lose weight, they may consider using the CGMs. Really stupid logic, but the CGM is helping me understand how to do it.

It was also really stupid to bike after a morning rain. 89 but felt like 99. 68% Humidity. Had to cut my ride short by about 5 miles.

I didn't make the triathlon. Had issues getting into a hotel and had to sit it out due to fatigue. There's a July 14th one at the same location I'll aim to complete. Will give me time to complete a couple of weeks of sprint training on the treadmill and pool.

Cjsdowg it sounds like you're getting leaner. One of the downsides of working out regularly is struggling to keep clothes that will consistently fit you. It's a burden and a blessing.

Also if you're doing these machines you should do an exercise called Rear Delt Flys with your light dumbbells. It's true that your posture can be affected by lifting. Doing 5 sets of 20 of these at a very low weight will strengthen muscles in your shoulder known as the posterior deltoid. This helps your posture and appearance a lot. Prevents you from hunching over when you stand due to overdeveloped anterior and medial deltoids.

Looking at your machines you have everything you need but legs and shoulder press

I would do 5 sets of 20 of each machine in a circuit

Chest Press, Pulldown, Machines

and then repeat 5 times.

I have worked as a licensed personal trainer before. There are only a few combinations of exercise for upper body. You either push out (Chest, Triceps), Pull In (Rows, Biceps), Push Up (Shoudlers, Triceps) and Pull Down (Pull-ups, Lat Pulldowns). The only thing you're missing is a shoulder press where you're pushing up over your head.

Ab work, cardio and legs are things you should add on once you've done this for about 4 weeks. If you figure out how much you can do then do 50% of that for the sets I stated you should get visible muscle pretty easily with a low chance of injuring yourself.

The good part about this program is that it's high volume low intensity. If you have something to watch or listen to it isn't hard to put the work in. You will be tired afterwards but it shouldn't be overwhelming.

EDIT: I see you do have a shoulder press machine, you're in good shape! Machine 1 is a shoulder press, Machine 2 is a chest press, Machine 3 is a lat pulldown and row machine meant for your back.

5 sets of 21 at 50% of your 1 Rep Max

The volume will give you a great pump and if you sleep well and eat good you'll be yoked in no time

This these sorts of takes should just be an instant ban at that point.

Before threatening my account can you at least admit that Anakin committed assault by shooting the classmate and her boyfriend in a public place? Can you admit that the fact the victim was Hispanic means that this may hate have possibly been a racial hate crime committed by Anakin?

Anakin and his friends also lied to the police when they were initially questioned before the video came out.

Wal-Mart employees called their management after it happened

Anakin and his friend are adults, the girl and boy he shot were minors

60 posts and no one mentions this

This is my last post in this topic, these are things we should consider.

I'm not trying to argue but this stuff is important. I'll state for the mods and record that I believe Contreas is guilty and should go to jail but I also believe his daughter may have been have been the victim of a hate crime. I think 18-year-old Anakin Zehring committed a crime when he shot that child and her boyfriend in a Wal-Mart and then ran away. I have also donated to his GoFundMe and I hope he walks again.

It is also is important to ask the question, "Was Anakin targeting the daughter because she was Hispanic? Was race involved in Anakin's decision to shoot his Hispanic classmate in public?"

I don't know the answer to the question. But it's important, I think.

Reading the article again I'm realizing the kid's name is Anakin.

It's that he was playing with guns (toy guns) in public as a senior prank. If you're an adult, you should be smart enough to understand that people may react with violence if they feel they're exposed to it. You don't yell fire in a crowded theater. You don't shoot people in public and run away. I believe they had gel bead guns and water guns, so the shots actually hurt people. The kid was committing felony assault because he was targeting people from his school.

Again the Father is also wrong but when he said, "they shot my daughter" he wasn't lying. If the prank was on school grounds I'd feel different.

A lot of privileges are being granted to the victim here. Tamir Rice was shot and killed by police for holding a toy gun, not shooting it, and people and local authorities said the 12-year-old's shooting was justified. This kid actually shot people and ran away. It's difficult to say that there's no danger present when his daughter was a victim of a shooting and you don't know if she got grazed by an actual bullet or hit with rock salt or something. Is it because the victim is white and the Father is Hispanic and dark skinned? I don't know but this is Kansas.

Dad still should get convicted with reckless endangerment at least for shooting into a car. Civil suit will be in the favor of Anakin because he has lifelong injuries. Maybe the daughter was being vindictive in reaction to being shot. But none of this happens if the senior prank stays on campus and not in a public place. I believe Anakin was guilty of a crime when he shot his classmate.

It's the kid's fault 100%

Dad is an asshole who should get convicted and daughter is complicit and seems like she wanted this to happen but maybe don't shoot at people in a public place.

Not trying to be a contrarian. It sucks the kid's messed up but it's very hard to feel sorry for a high school senior pranking people in public with weapons. Like someone else said I don't think anyone is right here

CGM is showing some interesting things. Most interesting is a significant drop in blood sugar during tough exercise. I knew it happened on the bike and that's why re-fueling is a thing, but I've neglected how impactful it can be during lifting as well.

I'm at 252 currently. Going to traditionally bulk for the next two weeks. I like the way I'm looking compared to when I just rode the bike.

Texas officials are urging residents in some areas to use different modes of transportation other than their cars on Friday as ozone pollution in the state reach concerning levels.

The Texas Commission on Environmental Quality (TCEQ) has declared an Ozone Action Day for the Dallas-Fort Worth, Houston, Galveston and Brazoria areas because of high levels of ozone, also known as smog. Officials suggested that to help reduce the pollution, people should minimize the use of their vehicles.

"Atmospheric conditions are expected to be favorable for producing high levels of ozone pollution in the Houston, Galveston, and surrounding areas on Friday," the alert posted by the National Weather Service (NWS) said. "You can help prevent ozone pollution by sharing a ride, walking, riding a bicycle, taking your lunch to work, avoiding drive through lanes, conserving energy and keeping your vehicle properly tuned."

The warning comes a day after California also experienced high levels of air pollution and warned people in Imperial County to delay visiting gas stations and using chemicals until ozone levels improve.

As of Friday morning, the Texas cities in question were experiencing moderate air quality valued between the Air Quality Index (AQI) numbers of 50 and 99. Air quality is considered "acceptable" at this level, although some people unusually sensitive to air pollution could experience impacts.

According to AirNow, a coalition between the U.S. government and tribal agencies that monitors air quality, Friday's air quality was expected to be the worst in southern California and southern Nevada, eastern Texas, and in parts of Mississippi and Tennessee. As of 7:30 a.m. Eastern time (ET), the Houston-Galveston-Brazoria area had the sixth highest AQI in the nation at 84. The highest was Hidden Valley, Arizona, at 113.

Yep bike shorts are great and so are really good bibs on long rides.

You have to train yourself to have time in saddle. I stand up on the bike for 2 minutes every 10-15 minutes and it helps with circulation. You shift up in gear to give more resistance and pedal upright at a lower cadence. It typically helps you produce more power, bikers do that when climbing hills but it helps with blood flow. Wiggling your toes when warming up is also good.

My limit right now is about 3 hours but it gets better.

I think I'm doing the triathlon. Signed up for the hotel room. Probably gonna go alone.

Creatine definitely increases your weight and muscle mass. Just make sure it doesn't affect your kidneys.

Hit a bike route and then some today. Gonna undo all of this work by slamming some pizza and beer lol

I'm just seeing this. Amazing effort and elevation. My aim is to ride one mountain this year but I'm not sure when that's going to be.

Seeing that it's in the 60s in South Korea means it must have been a comfortable ride in terms of weather. Mine this afternoon was not.

+ 7 mile Peloton class

10 sets of 5 deadlifts 235lb
2 sets of 20 squat 185lb

5 sets of 21 bench 135lbs
5 sets of 10 shoulder press 75lbs

48 minute row watching Konosuba & Date a Live

Set up a TV and headphones to my outdoor weight area and now I can lift while watching stupid shit, it's great. Did all of this watching the Konosuba Season 3 Dub during my day off post-ride. Absent-mindedly lifting is much better than sitting on my ass and drinking.

Very close to snatching my GF and doing a triathlon this Sunday one hour north from me. I want to see if my boss needs me to work because we really need the extra money and a virtual option is not terrible since I've already paid. I've done zero running training other than playing 2k while walking on the treadmill but my running folk say that it shouldn't be a problem to run a 5K early in the morning.

CEman is an amazing name and this is a good topic.

Any tips for me? I'm starting therapy not because anything's wrong but because it's free for this month. What do you aim to do in your first meeting? When should one expect to see progress and what does that look like?

You're some kind of hero in war against the demons and as a reward for your service the gods grant you a 10 year old child because being forced to be a single parent is a reward or something like that.

Raise her for 8 years through school & shit. On her 18th birthday she marries someone (maybe) and gets a job and that's the end

Available job endings include:
Street Walker prostitute
High class prostitute
Concubine to 80 year old king

But apparently marrying the butler is taking things too far for Sony.

Very strange premise but I can see how it would be popular

Just copped a continuous glucose monitor and Nutrisense Dietician. Supposed to help me monitor my diet, but I really started using it to teach my parents how to read their blood sugar.

It was really neat seeing how the sensor worked but I think I broke my first 14-day sensor. Replacing it now

Wii, PS3, 360 (2006-2013)

GBA became retro in 2012

Ps2 became retro in 2014

Ps3 and 360 became retro last year

While this is definitely true, I feel like Namor is probably the most well-known F4 "antagonist" after the first two. But Annihilus could also make a strong case for the 3rd slot.

I've always seen it as Joker, Two-Face and Riddler.

Agreed. Joker Two Face Riddler.

Bane, Mr. Freeze and Poison Ivy

I'm not sure if I know any other Batman villians.

Ran 6.25 miles at a 8:51 pace. 830 calories, plus almost a mile of walking gets me to about 925 calories.

I feel fucking amazing now!

And looking forward to a weekend with almost no plans other than an afternoon friend birthday party and kids' softball. Because of going to Europe (yeah, boo hoo), my wife and I haven't been able to chill at home without the kids in like 6 weeks.

That sounds awesome in terms of pace and overall feeling.

I signed up for a triathalon next week and I'm running a 10K to the Champions League Final tomorrow afternoon to prepare. I may have to drop the race due to work but I'm at least gonna train for it.

User cjsdowg that's how surgery goes. I had and inguinal hernia a few years back and it really set me back. The key is being patient enough for the docs to give you the green light. It is then being patient as you return to what you used to do.

Yep Peloton classes have me in a chokehold. I'm not doing long rides because of the heat, just 2 to 3 classes a day on the bike. Right now Hannah Frankson is my crush but there are many other instructors I enjoy

Honestly just like Spotify changed things for musicians so they could get paid, Onlyfans and PHub changed it as well. In a good way I believe.

I support some of my favorite redditors at least for a month. Budget averages to about $20 a month

There's one I've supported for more than two years but she's really good and does interesting things to keep followers engaged

Also like having unsolicited dialogue with some content creators who are professionals in other areas. Comedians are especially fun to follow

Also I never played MGS4 and I haven't really been spoiled yet. What would be the best way to play it?

despite hating some of the characters (Otacon, EE, and Fortune being on the cusp), it's one of my favorite games.

I played the first MGS when it came out but I was a little late in getting MGS2, so I was aware of the early twist when I started playing.

You hated Fortune? Why?

Not sure what this is but it's kind of funny?

Surveilance about to get a boost.

Please go ahead and name the movies I need stuff to watch while riding a bike. Childish drama is good.

Which one is the one where Pikachu talks?

You shouldn't have authentic feelings about a personality someone conveys at work.

You're really mad when they are doing a job.

Is a waitress or a bartender a kiss-ass to the customer?

I feel like it was a good idea done well that illustrated an issue in society that needed to be talked about.

It's true he may have had other health issues but the movie was good enough to watch and affect society in a positive way.

Isn't good that enough?

How so?
