Lifting is a lot of fun :) Good stuff mate!

Great progress...I was into lifting till last year. Will return once this Covid thing is over. Although I couldn't make great progress in muscle mass but my HDL increased and LDL and triglyceride decreased + my eating habit improved

I've turned one room into a home gym. Got a squat rack, bench/incline, olympic bar and a crapload of weights. Resistive bands and dumbbells.

You're welcome...

I'd be worried it could make me poo myself....

Finally done with amps. Big box is 4 channels for the lower part of lx521, small packed box is 6 channels for the upper part.

Don’t you know cable lifters are snake oil? :P

When you pump iron, do you melt the iron first or is your blood basically magma?

P.S. On weights too. Starting light.

I've been lifting a lot and have been in shape for quite a while before dad died few years back, then stopped, got fat and terrible. lost 17 kg and started lifting again. doing full body workouts 4x a week, all major compounds and some accesory stuff too. good to see you guys lift too, iron is the way, all the way. currently on 18% bf, goal about 10-12

Found 10 for 3 bucks. EI14.

I'm generally pretty much a bamboo pole type of figure. It was once said of me that if I stood sideways and stuck my tongue out I'd be mistaken for a zip. I remember having a 28-inch waist and finding it really hard to buy clothes.

However, I'm quite pleased that the pair of trousers I wore in London, which would not do up under the belt last year, did so this year. (And that Marks & Spencer replaced that belt, for which I did not have a bill, because it had delaminated.)

Thanks guys :)

We got caught in a thunderstorm that came out of nowhere. Got soaked, lightning struck 50m from us, we were in the forest :/
Lost my flipflops in the stream, had to go barefoot through all that several km
Super interesting weekend

Wouldnt be that interestimg if you happen to be alone.

Good news, @Ardacer! Very happy news indeed.

Absolutely! Electrons know how much you paid for the cable and adjust performance adequatelly. That's why you must never buy second hand too!

On a serious note, no, I don't see why we would at all.

Just one more point, then I'll shut up about metals!

Always seems to me that people are saying that silver sounds /brighter./ Anthropomorphism much? Why aren't the bass-heads using lead cables? |lol|

It does slightly, but it might just be a perceptual thing because it also sounds slightly faster. You can also affect bass slightly by using thicker cables. It's all pretty small changes though, and I mainly get nice cables for the ergonomics of a soft cable that doesn't make noise when it rubs on clothing/chair.

I'll probably build some spherical enclosures and tinker with that first. Headphone parts? Uh... that's a lot more complex, like an order of magnitude. Not sure i'd have the time, will or knoweledge to do that

Btw, lost 7kg as of now. Think I'm doing good.

I printed baby groot first: https://www.thingiverse.com/thing:2014307 out of black PLA. It looks like charcoal-with-a-sheen with all of the texture.

I lost like 10lbs in 2 weeks. My trick was to get pneumonia.

My trick was to that I stopped working and started focusing on doing nothing. Yes! I put on a pound or three.

It might be water, though I'm only measuring weight in the morning after urinating, and I'm well hydrated all the time. I'm assuming a loss of around 100-200 grams per day. Should be at 80kg/180lbs after two months or so.

For not-terrible, that sounds like a lot of fun. Can you hand-hold it?

Depends, with lots of light and fast shutter, yes at times. Mostly though, no way. Even on a tripod, just walking around near it shakes everything.

Maybe need a better tripod though at that length it would take a tank of a RRS or something.

Croatian who has said no to the wine. You are a weirdo!

I also don't drink coffee. I'm not a weirdo, I'm a total freak of nature

Oh, happy Easter and holidays, too!
I like bevanda, that's half still water, half wine. A glass or two per day tops.
