Recovery time can vary a lot depending on the person, the particular muscle group how much volume you do, how hard you push, quality of your sleep, and a bunch of other factors. It’s not wild to have arms that recover faster than average.

It’s perfectly valid to have a fluctuating schedule too. It’s not ideal, but life rarely cooperates to give us ideal conditions. I’d say that if changing it to a fixed schedule is too complicated or makes it less enjoyable and harder to adhere to, then don’t do it. Based on what you’ve written, it seems like you do have a pretty well thought out plan on how to autoregulate and adapt to whatever your work schedule throws at you. That is in itself a rigorous plan. Not everything has to align with our seven day calendars.

And just like that, Mike Isratel popped into my head to narrate for the rest of your post.

Productivity is how fast I’m moving towards my goal. Its end goal is to reach my goal.

About three times per day during the work day makes for ~800 times per year. Seems to be on the right order of magnitude to me.

Easy enough to write. But reading and maintaining? That’s the hard part.

I find it amazing how little space corn syrup takes up relative to how much is produced. It’s no wonder we use it in everything.

It’s the only time where it’s relevant to the conversation, no? Why would you bring it up anywhere else?

Milk first makes it possible to get the wrong ratio of cereal to milk because

1. the cereal floats and you have no idea how much you put in there
2. You can underestimate how much volume the cereal takes up and not leave enough room in your bowl

Ah, the age-old unpopularopinions dilemma. Do I upvote because I agree, or upvote because it is unpopular and I disagree?

The community I’m currently subscribed to for this: !hackernews@lemmy.bestiver.se

I like the one(s) that bring(s) in posts from Hacker News since they have a high likelihood of being interesting, and I like seeing what the people of Lemmy think of them. Other than that, I don’t think I’ve seen any others that add value to my Lemmy experience.

I’m assuming you’re talking about the US leadership? Eminem has been putting out music critical of every (2) Republican president since getting big.

Just because an English word was originally Latin and is written the same way, doesn’t mean it’s pronounced the same way. It’s an English word now. It has an English pronunciation, pluralisation and definition that can all be different from the original. “Kentawur” is not correct for the English word.

I would argue that they’re smuggling in fentanyl precisely because the less dangerous drugs are also illegal, so there’s no oversight in making sure they’re not laced with the cheaper fentanyl.

If you’ve ever been to a serious olympic weightlifting gym, you’ll find that the broomstick is an indispensable tool.

“Millionaires’ column”

I can’t find the post you’re referring to. Can you link it?

Regarding your worry about looking silly, I get you. I like to think the gym is one of the less judgemental places (and in my experience, it is), but you find assholes everywhere in life, so it would be a lie to say you’ll never encounter them. What helps for me, and maybe it’ll help you too, is confidence in knowing you’re doing the right thing. What is the right thing? No, it’s not doing the exercise with the correct form, or doing the correct rep scheme or pushing with the correct intensity. None of that. The right thing is showing up and actively working on improving yourself. That means taking the time to experiment and eventually figure out how to do things right. It means not letting perfect be the enemy of good.

If you’re looking for resources to learn the big 3 lifts, I highly recommend the articles on strongerbyscience. Here’s their deadlift article.

And as others have said, don’t be shy to ask others for guidance. I’ve had my share of asking for form checks and of being asked for form checks. The gym is the kind of place where everyone generally likes to help each other out.

It peaked when it was good enough to generate short somewhat coherent phrases. We’d make it generate ideas for silly things and laugh at how ridiculous the results were.

I can stand by this for an established business. But we live in a capitalist society where you need money to make money. Until that changes, your ability to pay for work doesn’t have any bearing on the value of your new business venture.
