  1. But - that’s how many you see in the gym. How many more are dying behind a desk and get almost zero exercise.
  2. General population - 5% of that age. Most people over 50 aren’t in the gym.
  3. Seems arbitrary. I can do all of those, but I’m not training for that anymore. Those number used to be bench your weight, squat 1.5, deadlift 2x. I used to have those, but god did it hurt. I finally realized I’m not trying to be a power lifter and looked for functional programming. I did that for a while and now switched to trying to become an A group cyclist - which is a whole different lifting style. In reality - your goals should determine what you’re doing in the gym.
  4. We are on the same path. I’m down from 239 to 208. I’m adjusting my diet again after my vacation. Kick start the next phase of weight loss.
  5. Exactly. Since I switched to tempo work, gloves, straps, weight belt - have all gone away. My joints all feel better and I’m functionally moving better than I have in a very long time. I’m down from 239 (Jan of this year) to 208 (today). I’m 47 and will never try to squat 2x my body weight again. I have no need to.
  6. Some how that was Hamiltons fault for not handing the corner to the great Max on a silver platter. [emoji849]
  7. Van Aert average 450w over around 13 minutes pulling Yates. Hit a max of 650w. That is insane.
  8. Neighborhood in Cypress off 290 and Barker Cypress. They turned their detention ponds into ski lakes and crammed $1M homes on the water. Super MAGA neighborhood. I mean, not as MAGA as mine where gov wheels did his bullshit door knocking, but still really MAGA.
  9. I have and it was really strange. He had pictures with GW Bush and had some autographed stuff from Bush Sr. He lives in Towne Lake, so the politics sorta track.
  10. He should be DQ’d from the race. Instead he walks with 1 championship point. Unreal.
  11. Uh… Biden is apparently a robot clone - per the POTUS. Fucking brilliance on display.
  12. At this point - it’s the car. This is the third driver that cannot drive that car and the set up they’ve built.
  13. That they listen to their doctors and no one on the Internet. Considering something like 95% of docs take vacations, I’ll follow suit.
  14. Try tempo work over very high reps. 12 - 15 reps with a 3 second tempo.
  15. I mean, I can, but that’s switch for me. [emoji16]
  16. Trinity Texas loses their ER again. I used to wakeboard the Trinity. Heavy MAGA country. Oh well. https://abc13.com/amp/post/midcoast-medical-center-trinity-close-due-financial-struggles-leaving-town-hospital/16233487/
  17. Lando on his scooter in his race helmet.
  18. James Vowles even said on his radio that it’s not how he likes to go racing, but it’s what they had to do.
  19. Waiting for a safety car. Two pits stops is trash. This was a bad idea.
  20. I think it was because he was technically on the racing line.
  21. I disagree. We were a city on a hill if you were / are a white male. Beyond that - living in America was not all rosey. Hell, dead people have more bodily autonomy than women in a lot of states.
  22. Paddock? Yacht? General admin on the hills?
  23. OSHA rule regarding masks was applied to companies, not the whole country. Reading comprehension much?
  24. The vaccine mandate by Biden was government. Companies had their own rules. Other countries had their own rules. Same with masks - there was not a government mask mandate for the country. It was recommended. There were local and state mandates.
  25. You could try The Little Watch shop on Shepard.
