I've seen them called digital gardens, because they like something you maintain and let grow with no specific purpose.

I was about to kick off about a Fig Roll not being a biscuit, but Wikipedia claims it is.

I'm 2XL and use the M&S pure cotton ones in a regular fit as my basics. They do a decent job, fit well, have lasted me a couple of years and don't break the bank.

I lost another couple of KGs this week and saw numbers on the scales I haven't seen in 5 years, so I'm riding high, cool guy 😎.

Yeah, it's almost like it's a bit or something. OP must be deranged.

Sorry it's a day late, it's been a bit of a rough week for me.

My Blood Pressure was up to 182/107, and I ended up in hospital having a round of tests to check I wasn't at risk of anything serious damage.

I've got it down since then, and am now in the normal range, albeit the high end, but I've given up caffeine, nicotine, salt and a few other vices.

And then I've spent to last day in bed with a really painful stomach ache.

Fair points, but it's also completely insecure, which is hugely important to a lot of people.

Is there any way to work out what numbers I should be aiming for for each exercise?

I've got a deadlift PR for 175kg (~385lbs), I think I could squat 150kg (330lbs), maybe more, as I did it years ago.

I'm worried about bench as I'm untested. I would need about 120kg (264lbs). I've been doing dumbbell bench for 4x12 @ 17.5kg (~38lbs). Today I alao did Incline Dumbbell bench for the same sets, reps and weight.

I'm 14kg (32lbs) off with those numbers, so I'll probably tack it on the squat or redo the DL.

Does anyone have any advice?

Cheers!

Hi,

Are there any active communities for home gym, weightlifting or strongman?

Attempting a cross post with this, I dont know if I did it right.

I've only just started paying attention the what the numbers mean in the last year or so.

I remember it being 40kph last year and watching it out the window waiting for something to happen, but nothing did.

Now I've seen as high as 47mph on Beeb Weather and a weather warning, so this should be like 60 to 70kph winds, almost double last time.

Can I expect my neighbours furniture to go flying or a bin to roll down the road or something this time?

I hadn't even noticed since I moved over to liftoff (which is great for browsing content but not much else if you don't have an account on one of the three mains instances).

Great news! Thanks Tom!
