Hey guys, it's my birthday. I'll be alone today, but I just wanted to take this chance to say that thanks for the laughs. I know I lurk more than I post here but still. I just wanted to say that its really cool to feel accepted and that you guys don't shun me away just because I have a little over 100 posts. A lot of other communities do that and at least I really feel good when I come around cuz I know I can come around anytime and have a good time in this thread.

There.

I'll go back to work on my YouTube videos. Thanks for the read guys. Love ya.
Happy Birthday dude!

You should post more, you're great!

Mind you, the ssbwiki article points to the same article, but I'd be surprised if there were two Bronson Laytons in Naples
The surveillance footage shows the clerk pinning Layton to the ground for about three minutes, then letting him go. Layton then took his shirt off and threw it at the clerk and chased the clerk around the parking lot, according to an arrest report.
Lmaaoo

I haven't checked those threads in forever. If I want cute girls, I'll just scroll down my twitter feed. It's basically 40% FGC, 40% Cute Anime Girls/Lewds, 15% Dank Maymays, and 5% other

Making a comeback feels so good.

Also all you fit people, is walking with weights good work-out? I've been having 2kg on both feet and at first 10, but now 20kg in backpack for a few weeks now. How much does it matter that I go pretty slow? The paths I walk on are slippery and I don't want to break my neck. Is there anything else easy I could do to make the best out of my walks? Is there a minimum length or duration I should aim for? So far they take about 40 min.

My wrist also starts hurting after doing pull-ups all-out. Is there a trick to it or should I just take it easier?

Why did I buy Buckley's lozenges instead of Halls'
Now I have 18 of the worst tasting lozenges in the world and I have to eat them
But 4Chan is lame.
It's good for few things, but very good for those things

One of those things is collecting images

Can't comment much on the walking/hiking. Seems legit, tho.

As for pullups:
I had a good video that I usually link for this, but I'm on mobile and it's harder to find.

Basically, if you're new to them, start with chinups (palms facing you and a bit closer grip. You work much the same muscles, but it's easier to build up this way.)

Now, get a bench or a chair, stand on it and grab the bar. Slowly lower yourself down, keep in control as you go. The video said do 8 of this, take 2 minutes off, repeat.

Now, if you can do this really easily, start doing chinups, aiming for 8. If you can:t finish a set, hold yourself up in the top of the movement as long as you can. Like, literally as long as you can, like "**** my arms are dying!"

Then take the two minute break and repeat. I think he said aim for 5x8. Once you can comfortably do this, switch to a pullup grip (palms facing away from you, hands grabbing a bit wider than shoulders) and repeat the entire process.

Your hands and forearms will be sore for the first part of this, that's just training up. If you feel a sharp pulling sting in the muscles, stop for the day and lightly stretch them out.

I mean walking is good, doing things is better than doing nothing. Adding weight... I can't really give any kind of expertise there. I'd say though that adding weight for walking isn't going to change a huuuge amount. Running/jogging is gonna be better and you get more mileage out of adding weight for that, esp since you can add weights on your wrists and ankles and get stuff out of both, since your arms aren't just swinging by your sides. You could also go more intense and juggle as you jog. Weighted juggling balls means you get your normal cardio while pushing coordination stuff and getting some stuff in your arms much more involved.

As for the pull ups I'd say (in addition to what Cory said) it depends on the way that your wrists are hurting. If it is a soreness/muscle tired kind of hurting, then stop and stretch when it happens and all that. If it's a stabbing kind of pain or something like that, stop immediately and find someone to look at your form for you. If you form is okay, you could talk to a physician or something if it continues to bother you. Basically if the pain is in the muscles, that's probably okay, just stretch and take care of yourself. If it feels more like nerve/bone/tendon stuff you might want to be more cautious imo.




Also, finally got a WiiU. Let's see if I can enjoy Sm4sh.

I'm probably a baby for this but the main reason (among another few) I don't focus on Melee/PM is that I fear I'll get carpal tunnel syndrome or just really hurt my hands in general. It's why I just play them on the side and focus solely on Smash 4.

Perfect pivots feel worse on my fingers than anything in PM/Melee aside from rapid waveshining (out of all the tech I've practiced or tried to learn)

and playing smash 4 without trying to perfect pivot is just a huge quality of life drop in my experience.

Don't get a Wii U, it's bad. Save your money and buy a PS4
