No creatine in those ig

fickle atlas
#

Potatoes are a great food tho

#

Can really fulfill you

thin fjord
#

bros

#

good news

#

fixed my right skate

shy rose
#

@thin fjord well done

#

what part is that?

#

buckle? .

thin fjord
#

yea, instep buckle

#

the lever is metal so it shouldnt fail on me ever

#

ill probably even transfer these to my new skates when i get around to buying them, probably in a couple months

copper garnet
#

Vroom

thin fjord
#

This is the state of my last buckle, since the lever was plastic and the arms were thin to begin with, it failed while tightening

#

These might be the skate I get, but im not sure since I think I'll want to stick with 3x110 instead of 4x80 which is what these are

#

or if im fine with 4x80, i might get these since they're cheaper at 135 atm, but still pretty decent

#

Id probably want the FRX though (the top one) because it has a better liner, and Id definitely be skating a lot

#

@shy rose i probably asked but i forget, whats your shoe size

#

if it's 12 there's a really good pair of skates you should buy

#

SO YOU CAN SKATE WITH ME

shy rose
#

yeah size 12

#

how much?

thin fjord
#

BET?

shy rose
#

yeah

thin fjord
#

I wouldve bought these already if i was sz12

#

these MSRP for like 250+

shy rose
#

those are sweet

#

i just dont have the money rn

thin fjord
#

np just figured id mention it

#

i must convert everyone into an inline skater

#

inline skating is gonna make a comeback fr

#

Is there any benefit?

thin fjord
#

I forget the use case, but i know someone who uses them. its great for striding stability and maintaining speed

lucid meadow
#

Oh okay.

#

Then what's the benefit of using less wheels?

thin fjord
#

well there's also wheel size to consider, but usually less wheels is relatively easier to turn and maneuver in

lucid meadow
#

I see.

#

I used to enjoy taking my roller blades and jumping off ramps after gaining some good speed.

thin fjord
#

yea i need to practice my jumping

#

i havent skated in a week+ because of ankle pain and one of my buckles on my right skate being broken so hopefully i havent regressed at all lol

lucid meadow
#

Ouch. I feel the ankle pain. When I was skiing when I messed up my foot got twisted pretty badly.

thin fjord
#

nah its not even from that. i have no idea what caused it. it's this weird pinching pain on the inside-front of my left ankle

lucid meadow
#

Sounds like a pinched nerve. Probably had it to tight.

#

My father gets that a lot.

thin fjord
thin fjord
#

if im actually able to skate today im gonna practice one-foot stability and being able to reliably put power down, and maybe even sprinting

I like the funny

if i hadnt bought my current skate, i mightve just bought these for the hell of it

You could roll up and down stairs with those bad boys 😂

thin fjord
#

make the stairs feel as smooth as glass lmao

lucid meadow
#

Lmao.

thin fjord
#

i dont have a helmet but im gonna practice going down stairs at some point as well

#

i can already jump and go off curbs without much difficulty so thats a start

primal void
#

Going down stairs is really easy

thin fjord
#

elaborate 🧐

primal void
#

Going down stairs without breaking anything is really hard

thin fjord
#

#

It's just like benching 1000 lbs

thin fjord
#

you're right lmao

primal void
#

I can do half a rep of it

thin fjord
#

i was hoping you had actual advice lmao

primal void
#

If you want actual advice

#

Just get a mountain bike lol

thin fjord
#

NO

lucid meadow
#

There's two ways to go down or up stairs with skates in my experience. 1( Walk brakes first. 2( Crab walk, by rotating your skates so they don't slide back.

thin fjord
#

"walk brakes"?

lucid meadow
#

Brake Walking is the easier one IMO once your used to it.

thin fjord
#

no i use inlines, i dont have those

lucid meadow
#

Oh well I guess you gotta learn to crab walk then.

thin fjord
#

yea i already do that sometimes, but for going down i dont have a great strategy lol

lucid meadow
#

Yeah down is tricky but doable.

primal void
#

Learn how to jump up and grind down the handrail

thin fjord
#

if im outside, i wanna just be able to glide down the stairs like a lot of urban/free skaters do and whatnot

thin fjord
lucid meadow
#

Define glide?

copper garnet
#

I just break my spine whenever I go down stairs in skates

thin fjord
#

Im not really into tricks like that so i didnt go with aggressive skates

thin fjord
# lucid meadow Define glide?

I tackled a challenge I've been avoiding for 10 years. Don't be like me; wear your pads for stair rolling!

#

the long run/short rise type of steps seem great

#

its the really steep not-so-deep ones that are dangerous 💀

lucid meadow
#

Oh I see.

#

Now I know what your talking about.

#

Yeah those are tricky. I never quite got it right.

thin fjord
#

id imagine its pretty different on quads since there's only 2 points of contact, front/back of the foot

lucid meadow
#

Yeah.....

#

Extremely bumpy.

thin fjord
#

would need a lot more speed to compensate but thats dangerous for obvious reasons lol

lucid meadow
#

Yep.

thin fjord
#

did you get to the part of the video where he falls 💀

lucid meadow
#

No.

thin fjord
#

yea it hurts to watch tbh lol

lucid meadow
#

With Quad any steps deeper then like 2 inches are practically impossible do to how bump it feels.

thin fjord
lucid meadow
#

The wheels get caught on the steps.

#

I fell a lot of times.....

thin fjord
#

ouch lol

lucid meadow
#

I think I just figured out why my pc's been crashing on occasion.

#

My ram voltage got reset to the wrong number.

#

It's supposed to be 1.49-1.5v but it was at 1.55v.

#

Oh wait. Wrong channel.

copper garnet
#

Nah bro your ram's just been bulking

lucid meadow
#

To bad my ram starts to become unstable at 1.55v cuz I can run 4233mhz cl16 at that voltage.

thin fjord
#

I'm skating rn :)

#

And my ankle isn't too upset

#

Yippee

I don't know how to also

@fickle atlas since that's considered a drug lets keep that off topic please

fickle atlas
#

Or a compost of them

limber grail
fickle atlas
#

Roids aren't illegal

#

Its just like kind of a chest

#

Sometimes they can be recommended by a professional in case you have low testosterone levels

#

Or better below normal

#

If it was illegal there wouldn't be competition for natural body and not natural body builders

Nah you're not

Bro what

limber grail

It's called not living at the pc, watch your tone

#

You where being all defensive you said injecting ffs, you've already been warned multiple times then you got all defensive about it when i said to drop the topic

lucid meadow
#

Pato, does this mean we can't talk about sugar? Since sugar is a technically a drug as well same, for milk.

limber grail

#

I was just messing with you btw.

#

Anyways, so long as it's a legal drug it's fine is what you're saying?

thin fjord

I abuse the insulin drug

I'm hooked on it, I can't live without it

Injecting it several times a day

lucid meadow
#

Had a mango protein shake this morning for breakfast.

limber grail
lucid meadow
#

Will have to double check later but I believe it's Falcon?

#

The shake was made from Mangos, Milk, Protein Powder, and a bunch of suppliments. Will send a picture later.

limber grail
#

Never heard of them pepehmmm

fickle atlas
#

If you are from Europe

#

Check hsn nutrition

#

Best prices and great products

#

Standing pull down are wild

limber grail
#

Hmm never heard of them

#

That's pretty cheap

fickle atlas
limber grail
#

Although i think for shakes I'll stick with the myprotein clear isolate

fickle atlas
#

I'm buying creatine from them next

limber grail
#

For baking, don't care as much since the flavour doesn't come through as much

fickle atlas
#

Well, as long as you like it

limber grail
#

Yeah taste is a huge thing for me

#

I don't like regular protein shakes really

#

The clear whey isolate is very juice like tho

lucid meadow
#

Went for a walk to the beach and did a lot of snorkelling scouting for spear fishing locations today. Heading to Chabad next for a jewish holiday. Currently clocking 13,000 steps.

amber fern
#

I'm looking to get a gym membership. I currently weigh 175lbs and I'm 5'7". Where should I begin with working out?

fickle atlas
#

If you feeling slightly chubby, time for a bulk

#

Ah wait

#

Read it wrong

#

Best I could say is

#

Check the machines that the gym has

#

And the price

#

Avoid planet fitness and you should be good

amber fern
fickle atlas
#

Yeah, bulking is the way

amber fern
#

Where do I start?

amber fern
fickle atlas
#

To increase your body weight

amber fern
fickle atlas
#

LMAO

#

To start I'd try all the machines

#

Check as many machines as you can

#

For 1-2 weeks maybe

amber fern
#

What am I checking the machines for? Which one I have the most difficulty doing?

fickle atlas
#

Then the next 2 weeks you should know what's your favourites and which are the ones you like the least

fickle atlas
#

With machines, I'm also talking about free weights exercises

#

At an underestimation of your max

#

Bcs free weights can be dangerous

#

You can also see which ones are 5he most difficult for you

amber fern
#

I was 230 2 years ago. I've only been losing weight no matter how much I eat

lucid meadow
#

Just got back from Chabad and now clocking in at 18,500 steps and 944 kcal burned.

#

I am using the Moto100 watch to track my steps.

lucid meadow
# amber fern I'm looking to get a gym membership. I currently weigh 175lbs and I'm 5'7". Wher...

Check out some gyms and find one that you like with some machines. But the basics if you're trying to lose the slight chub I would recommend starting slow with light exercise like some Curls, few pushups, and situps for bulking or if all you want to do is lose some fat is cut your calorie intake by 200-300 calories and burn a extra 100 or more calories from things like walking around.

#

I am currently doing a mix of both and I am losing a good amount of body fat while adding on some muscle.

#

Don't overwork yourself just take it easy and try to add a little bit whenever you can.

amber fern
limber grail
# amber fern I def already do this

You also wanna aim for eating good food and enough protein, would highly recommend myFitnessPal to track protein and calories, on a bulk you want to aim for 1.4g protein per kg of body mass or roughly .6g of protein per lb. Then between fat carbs and protein, for your protein whatever you workout e.g. 30% of the 3, make sure you don't cut out fat too much or anything tho you need 25-30% to remain with regular hormone regulation etc.
Personally I'd do a high protein small cut if you want to get rid of the chub

#

High protein cut would basically be that anyway but just less calories than you're burning so if you're working out 2-3 times a week it'd probably be about 1900 calories would still do it

#

And the high protein is obvs important for your muscle building but on a calorie deficit it also is very important for making sure you don't loose muscle while loosing weight

tepid storm
#

the most convient option will likely be the most consistent option

thin fjord
#

Cool now I need another replacement

tepid storm
#

Ribozo

thin fjord
#

LIKE YOUR BRAIN

tepid storm
#

Aren't you literally the ddr3 guy

amber fern
#

I can turn my tummy fat into arm muscle?

lucid meadow
#

Pretty sure he meant it in that instead of fat you had the extra weight in muscle.

amber fern
lucid meadow
#

Yeah that'd definitely do it.

#

I am gonna fast for three days starting tomorrow.

#

Fingers crossed I survive xD>

amber fern
#

Once I got back out to civilization I started walking/biking and lifting heavy stuff for work.

lucid meadow
#

Good exercise.

amber fern
#

Yeah. I'm thinking I'm gonna start doing pushups when I first wake up and before bed until I can find a good gym.

#

I believe those will work my biceps and triceps as well as chest/upper back

lucid meadow
#

Pushups are very good for chest and arm muscles. Make sure to do your workouts slowly on the push and pull.

amber fern
#

I gotta keep the chub though. Gotta have that dad bod for the ladies.

lucid meadow
#

Broad pushups are good for the outer parts of the chest and diamond pushups are good for the inner parts.

red onyx
#

And do push ups after a light warmup, def not right when u wake up and before u go to sleep

#

I’d follow this

#

I remember my coach back in middle school was making me do iron man’s with a total of 100 push-ups when I couldn’t even do 1 good one

#

But by the end of the year I could do 30 push-ups in a row

#

Wasn’t the best way to do it and there was def faster better ones but it worked

amber fern
#

Then again, this was 12 years ago.

red onyx
#

Doing push-ups right after u wake up would do more bad than good

lucid meadow
#

Seems mixed. For me doing it when I wake up works best.

amber fern
pure veldt
#

We back with the challenge

#

Try not to commit die die

#

(not going to the gym for 1 week)

limber grail
#

At least drink water still

limber grail
limber grail
#

But also as i mentioned before obvs a crap load of protein so at least 1.4g per kg of body weight as long as you're getting 25-30% fat on your day

#

Also creatine helps

amber fern
#

Or will peanuts and hamburgers and chicken burgers be sufficient?

limber grail
#

So for the first 5 days of taking it you want to take about 10g per day to boost the amount in your muscles, after that 3-5g a day

limber grail
#

Chicken itself is a great high protein low fat low calorie ish source

amber fern
#

So.. I'm gonna need to get some protein powder?

limber grail
#

Use the myFitnessPal to see the breakdown of things

#

Ehh you don't have to

#

It'd make it easier

#

Personally i prefer protein bars

amber fern
limber grail
#

Cuz most powders are not good as a shake

amber fern
#

Ah

limber grail
#

There's some really good protein bars

amber fern
#

I usually eat sweet and salty nut nature valley bars

limber grail
#

Fulfil and barebell are the best from what I've heard for taste and protein, i eat fulfil

amber fern
#

Like.. that's pretty much my diet everyday unless I'm awake enough to make a burger

limber grail
amber fern
#

Rip

#

Ok

#

I'll go take a look at my protein bar section

#

I'm still at work.. 12 hours in

limber grail
#

Have heard great things about barebell too

#

Quest make some okay ones

#

Would deff for first few tries til you find one you like just buy them singular at an inflated price but when you find ones you like you can usually buy in bulk for a lot less

amber fern
#

Also, what about creatine?

limber grail
#

Not really, it depends

#

Like I don't eat much in the mornings

#

So i just have a protein bar for breakfast

#

But it wouldn't replace a meal unless you're like me in that way

#

I just can't stomach it a lot

amber fern
#

Same

limber grail
amber fern
#

I usually don't eat until 5 or so hours after I've been up

limber grail
amber fern
#

Then I snack here and there until bed time

limber grail
#

I'll have to go now but can answer more questions later

pure veldt
#

Nuts are great for bulking

#

Since your calories intake need to be high

#

Even for cutting

limber grail
#

They're more fat than protein and v high in calories tho usually

amber fern
#

The barbells that we have look like the best protein bar on our shelf.

#

I was also looking at the musclemilk protein thingies. They have like 42g of protein.

#

@limber grail

copper garnet
#

If it's supposed to be non-dairy why do they go through the extraction effort to get milk protein

limber grail
#

But worth a shot

shy zenith
#

I yearn for the gym

lucid meadow
lucid meadow
# limber grail Whyy? That's like pretty dangerous

.
I am drinking water but also it's good for rebooting the body and I am also doing this as a punishment for having broken a vow of mine.

Chris Hemsworth (Thor) has a good show on the rebooting the system called Limitless. If I remember right you can watch it on Disney+ or National Geographic.

limber grail

Limitless is also a tv series/movie about some guy doing loads of stuff because of an uppper drug lmao

With that amount of protein and that little calories i assumed so ye

amber fern
#

@limber grail very little flavor and not sweet at all. It's not bad. Not like other protein bars I've eaten in the past that are just plain gross tasting

limber grail

I happened to buy the last one. We buy 2 boxes of those every week. We haven't ordered a box of any others in close to a month.

Why you doing water fast ?

Two main reasons.

  1. Primary ( Punishment for breaking a vow
  2. Secondary ( A 3 day water fast can provide some health benefits and resets the body.

My cat gave me this look after that.

Alcohol in protein drinks?

#

hmmn, Should I buy another 2 lbs tub of Orgain protein (Dont use whey cuz dairy at this point) or just buy some cheap bulk pea protein and add some stuff to it for post workout recovery

Diary has like 100g for 2k cals

pliant copper
#

it more im in my 30's and dairy is less and less a friend too

#

so theres a company on amazon you can grab like 5 lbs of pea protein for 24 bucks and just mix anything extra you want and come in cheaper than a premixed tub at this point

pure veldt
#

Just get casein

#

Oh like pea protein is ehh, it needs to be mixed with chickpea

I get sweaty hands so my hands slipped after a long set of pushups and two those give you a bit more height so you can add more incline. I do my pushups down till my nose hits the floor.

#

Casein is dairy last I checked, its just the longer burning filtered type that is usually seperated from standard whey

#

I am unsure if there is a casein non dairy replacement

#

I dont believe there is atm sadly, would be awefully handy

#

ok, so theres a couple companies that have managed it, just its not avaiable to buy anywhere for standard consumers

Get gymnastics rings for better pushups

limber grail
#

Also whey isolate can tend to be easier on the stomach although it's missing 1 or 2 amino acids from regular whey iirc

#

Wrist problems looks like the biggest benefit of them to me

#

Or slippy floors

#

Like i have a plastic wood kind of flooring in my room and it gets slippy v quick if I'm doing pushups

pliant copper
#

If you are going to be doing pushups alot. Get an old piece of either plush carpet, or a workout mat with texture

#

Plush carpet being the best as it provides cushion and a large amount of grip so you dont slide around and lets you focus on the main goal of the pushup instead of contantly adjusting and wasting energy

To get a deeper push up

That's about it

Preparing your wrists properly is one of the most important things you can do to ensure successful handstand practice. Otherwise, your wrists will really take a beating, and won't be able to support your weight safely.

this one takes me less time

since it works on stuff I want to work on

#

not every part of the body is isolated

limber grail
#

Fair enough

pure veldt
#

and I can also just have some exercises

#

for example if I want to hit arms, I only take arm stuff from pull and push and I'm good

#

if I don't want to hit that much upper back, I can just remove

#

I normally go to failure at the end of the main workout

Highly would recommend using myFitnessPal to track calories and put in your goals etc, and aim for at least 1.2g protein per kg body weight daily, the more the better, make sure you get at least 25-30% fat between carbs fat and protein tho, as if you have less than about 25% fat you'll actually struggle to loose weight more because of hormone regulation etc, also just regular hormone regulation things for feeling good etc

limber grail
# sharp stirrup How to improve 😢

U could just cook it in a pan

Whenever I cook chicken though I like to cut it up in smaller pieces bc it’s easier to cook and I think there’s more seasoning on it cause of the surface area
