Plus I just don't see how a bank would be willing to finance the $50k broker fee. Cars can end up underwater from depreciation, but I've never heard of a bank willingly lending more than the purchase price of a new car, to where it's underwater at the transaction.

If your deadlift is on leg days, how is it that your pull is interfering with your legs?
Raw garlic can overpower a dish. It's a lot harder to do with cooked garlic, though (unless you burn it, at which point it's not very pleasant in large quantities).
any male born after 2003 can't date... all they know is 4chan , lift they weights, goon, be incel , eat hot tendie & lie
When I was doing 6 day PPL I generally wouldn't try to move up on deadlifts and squats only one day apart. Then again, when I was on a 6 day split it never really felt like any given day was that important, and I just steadily made progress on all of it until I became accustomed to that volume.
anti-aging research.
I mean, there's plenty of anti aging research going on. It's just that aging isn't any one thing. At the genetic level, telomeres are getting shorter and mutations are accelerating. In cells, certain metabolic waste products accumulate, and the cells experience increased oxidative stress.
At the tissue level, you see blood vessels stiffening up, accumulating calcium deposits in the vessel walls themselves, and arterial plague within the vessels. Conversely, bones lose strength and lose calcium, and muscles and joints and tendons and ligaments deteriorate in strength and range of motion. Skin loses elasticity. Plaques and other abnormalities form in the brain and throughout the nervous system. The endocrine system undergoes changes as the hormonal balance of people changes in late adulthood (most notably menopause in women).
Each of these effects of aging is being investigated, researched, and potentially treated. Dermatologists can make old skin look younger, or at least slow down the rate of apparent aging. There are pills that give 60 year old men the boners of a 20 year old. Some hormone therapies reverse some of the age-related decline in particular hormone levels. Each treatment treats its own thing, reversing or stalling one tiny aspect of aging.
And they're continuing to work on it. There's plenty of research being done, with lots and lots of funding behind it.
Nothing quite prepared me for the first time I had a doctor who was younger than me.
Depends. Will I still have my glasses, now that I have time to read all the books in the library?
puts you around 205lbs for a 1rm, a lot more than you thought?
I think 205 is about what I would have expected in a normal week. I had 180 as a 5rm last week, and the calculators put that at around a 205 1rm, too.
Still, though, this wasn't a normal week. I walked into the gym already tired and sore from doing 200 push ups on Monday (I don't think I've done 200 push ups in a day in like 15 years). So I was pleasantly surprised to be able to hammer out a 10-rep set on that one.
Yeah, I do front squats a decent amount. When I first started it took a bit of mobility work to be able to comfortably hold the bar in that position, but a few years of it being in the repertoire got that mobility/flexibility in place to where it isn't at all uncomfortable for me.
My failure point on front squats is the loss of balance on my way back up, when my legs and lower back are fatigued, where I tend to want to lean forward (which throws off my whole balance). Raising my arms/elbows higher helps, but then my arms and traps get tired. That's why I was wondering if Zerchers would be even more punishing of errors in form.
Above 200 lbs the minor imperfections in the movement really get amplified, so I appreciate that immediate feedback. I imagine Zerchers are the same way. Maybe I'll try them out next week in the gym, see if I can do a set and see how they compare to front squats.
Yeah I always thought that emojis were used most heavily by Gen Z. Millennials seem more likely to use abbreviations like "lol" and "lmao," and Gen X seems more likely to just type "haha." I don't know what boomers do, send audio clips of them laughing?
