People who keep cheering and calling these elections in the bag because of early vote totals forget that a lot of election day Democrats are just voting early this year cuz of the pandemic.

Polls show early voters are going 69% Biden vs 24% Trump, while Election Day voters 35% Biden vs 59% Trump. 29% Democrats, 23% Independents, 14% Republicans have voted. I'm sure someone with more time on their hands could look at 2016 results and extrapolate to see if those 2020 results match what's expected for VA in 2020. --- "That was unnecessarily dramatic". - NY Mets motto (courtesy of InnerTubeHero) Congratulations to azuarc, the guru of gurus and winner of GotD 2020! |

| Seanchan 08/06/20 7:20:18 PM #231 | I got my first full week back. The DOMs are real and they are spectacular! In terms of how bad the main lifts were after a 4 month break, it was easily Squats > Deads > OHP > Bench. The lower body muscles just really can't be worked that well from body weight exercises and it shows. I'm hoping the 2nd week goes better. --- "That was unnecessarily dramatic". - NY Mets motto (courtesy of InnerTubeHero) Congratulations to azuarc, the guru of gurus and winner of GotD 2020! |

| Seanchan 08/02/20 9:21:40 PM #229 | Squat day was a real smack in the face for the reality of taking 4 months off from lifting. I was 5-7 reps off on my heavy "just before failure set", despite it being a pretty light weight. Even taking into account doing too many reps on warm ups sets and wearing a mask, the weight just felt heavy. I am not looking forward to tomorrow's DOMS. --- "That was unnecessarily dramatic". - NY Mets motto (courtesy of InnerTubeHero) Congratulations to azuarc, the guru of gurus and winner of GotD 2020! |

| Seanchan 07/31/20 10:16:49 AM #226 | Ahhh, oh yeah, first day back to the gym! Felt good to lift again! They took out one of the benches, 1 set of 45 plates, 1 set of 25 plates, 1 10lb plate (very odd...), and the curl bar. Still plenty of plates to accommodate me, plus I was the only one in there lifting this morning. I do a 5/3/1 routine with a 4 day split (Bench/Squat/OHP/Deadlifts), so today was Bench day. Rolled back my numbers quite a bit from March to compensate for all the time "off". Not going to post all my numbers b/c I don't do the volume or weight of some other people in this topic ;) But my heavy "just before failure" set on bench was 152.5x15. Felt pretty good about that and it's in line with some past results. Of course, it's bench, so I'm more interested to see how far my squat and deads have fallen off. --- "That was unnecessarily dramatic". - NY Mets motto (courtesy of InnerTubeHero) Congratulations to azuarc, the guru of gurus and winner of GotD 2020! |

| Seanchan 07/29/20 7:36:15 AM #221 | I live in a fairly large community with multiple buildings, so there's actually two different fitness centers. Only one of them has a squat/half rack though, so that's the one I use. It's surprisingly well equipped, with an additional incline smith machine, 3 barbells (one is only 25 lbs though), enough plates to generally compensate for 2-3 people, dumbbells up to 50 lbs (the "other" fitness center goes up to 80 lbs), and then your usual assortment of machines and cardio equipment. --- "That was unnecessarily dramatic". - NY Mets motto (courtesy of InnerTubeHero) Congratulations to azuarc, the guru of gurus and winner of GotD 2020! |

| Seanchan 07/28/20 9:48:41 PM #219 | Well, they're finally opening up my apartment's gym, so that's good. But they're restricting the hours and limiting it to 10 people at a time, which is bad and good. And they've said they've taken away some of the free weight b/c they're harder to keep clean/safe, which is (probably) stupid? I'm cautiously optimistic about being able to get back to a "normal" routine again, provided they haven't literally taken away the barbells and plates. Even though I know going to the gym is probably still a stupid move at this point as is likely the most "dangerous" thing I've done since the start of this whole mess. --- "That was unnecessarily dramatic". - NY Mets motto (courtesy of InnerTubeHero) Congratulations to azuarc, the guru of gurus and winner of GotD 2020! |
