While waiting to meet an advisor for classes next semester, I read London blip, and laughed at the rest.

Anyone else here so competitive when you run you race yourself. I usually do this until I hack and nearly puke. I hate running

I do that on the bike. I literally get out of the front gate and start bombing :lol:

Yesterday I did a quick run across town, it was 95F and I was shot for the whole day afterwards.

Matt, how often do you dead lift?

I know some of the people doing olympic type shit / massive weight only do it once or twice a month on account of serious cns fatigue.

I've been doing it once a week with relatively lower weight, and it seems to be a good compromise currently.

When I used to deadlift, I would do it every week.

I never went for weight more than I could do 5 times in a row though. Some people will tell you once a month, but I know Olympic guys who would do a huge heavy 1RM and then do light deads another day.

Hell they did powe cleans too and that is just a dead lift + extra shiznit.

I would only NOT do an exercise if it caused me pain. Not soreness, but pain.

Hooray deadlifts biggrin.png

I was reading some lower back safety article and got the same advice, 5 reps, maximum weight. Thanks to the mix-up at work with the gym passes I missed 3 deadlift days and had to drop down the weight a little but I'm back to 1x a week.

Funny thing is not many people where I go to the gym do dealifts. They are all huge from the waist up.

Drinking a Crispin Extra Dry on ice. Best apple juice ever.

I never thought cider on ice was a good idea...... I drank 7 22oz bottles of the honey crisp on Saturday night.

That stuff has me converted. You are right though, some of it is not so great.

It even recommends it on the bottle. Otherwise I wouldn't have either, but I like it.

I was shocked. Just shocked.

You mean there actually is good, drinkable cider? What is this world coming to?

I'm spoiled with german beer :P

Not many people do dead lifts in comparison to everything else a gym has to offer, for what ever reason. :P

I've been doing a 5x5 program suggested from Starting Strength by Rippetoe, but I'm only doing 145lbs.

Dead lifts are one of the more complete singular exercises, but form is paramount.

Also why I took a long time doing them with low weight, and blocks. Eventually removed the blocks, got the form down, and very gradually upped the weight.

I do not want to fuck my back up.

Gotta make sure that shits arced. :lol: I kid.

Matt,

I haven't looked that much into specific scopes, or even which magnification range I want, but this thought crossed my mind:

Get a fancy scope now, put it on the 22 I already have, plink shit as far as the 22 will do, and down the road get the 308.

Then I still get to shoot some shit now, and later I'll have the round I want.

Only issues I see: Fitting a big ass scope on the 22 (smith and wesson m&p15-22), and getting one that has a big enough magnification range that I can set it at lowest for the 22, and higher for longer range shit with the 308.

So am I asking for a scope to do too much, at least one that would be under $600.00?

I wouldn't mind buying used, but I'm also not sure if that becomes a big deal if it's somehow fucked up.

Or entire idea just a bad idea?

So I am confused and need motorhead help.

My boat had an interesting problem. If I ran 5000rpm's for 5-10minutes it would all of sudden shut off (or at least severely drop in rpm's) sound the ecu warning buzzer, shutter and then rev back up. Sometimes it would shut completely off. Acted exactly like it was running out of fuel, had water in the gas, or air in the line.

So the fix was that I cleaned the raw water intake screen. WTF?? Basically it is an open cooling system so it pulls water from the lake via a pump. After this pump there is a little screen to prevent things from going into the motor. I pulled some weeds out of that screen. There was no over temperature or flow issue according to the gauges on the dash so why was the ECU shutting the boat off or was this a mechanical hiccup?

I seriously don't get it and would like to understand. No way, no how would my troubleshooting have found that. Found it on a Malibu forum, but I didn't believe it would do jack shit. It did...

What does it use for engine management and does it have a radiator and coolant or just use lake water?

Let me dig a bit for you. i like the idea verry much for you. once you can bughole your. 22 at 100 yards move up to something else.

I am on my tablet so give me a few and I will do some digging.
