I have been rehabbing my shoulder and speaking to friends with similar shoulder issues.

One of the better guides we have found was this guy: https://youtu.be/4Gli-tybcyw?si=6NwRkgrxFOXRZ641

His general approach is very cautious. His big issue is giving the tear better conditions to heal. Putting the arm in a sling whenever you can immobilizes joint and takes the pressure off the tear. Then strengthening the traps will fix things more than rotating the arms under load - because the ball of the joint will sit higher and more centred in the socket putting less stress on the tendons.

At this point, age I think. Don't want to doxx myself, but I'm thoroughly middle aged and I think I've maxed out what I can do without gear given my age. I'm almost at a three plate one rep max for bench, 435 lbs squat, almost 500 lbs deadlift. Without juicing or at least testosterone supplementation, I think this is probably about the best I can do. Which is fine, I'm plenty strong for someone that just wants to be strong and isn't an athlete or something.

Those are some good lifts at any age. For what I see, in this community we have an overall higher level than the one I expected there to be.

Thanks. And yeah, I agree. There are some seriously strong folks here and it's nice to see.

I have probably more than one, but my silliest and, at the same time, most annoying one is an object: my wireless earbuds. I cannot put my phone one meter away without losing signal and my music cutting out. Not even carrying it in my pocket works, and at the end of my training session I have lost a ridiculous amount of time trying to get those things to work by turning them on and off again or resetting them. I would buy new ones, but alas, there's no money for that.

You can get pretty good Chinese iems for a price that's not all that expensive. They'll probably be wired but you won't have to fiddle with them so much.

Both my airbuds and phone are Chinese already and they are both malfunctioning terribly despite the fact that I have only had them for 2 years at most. I guess one day I'll just have to renew my electronics and compensate the expense with soups for dinner for a few weeks.

cfgaussian , in If you're gonna eat rice don't eat white rice

I'll be brutally honest, i eat a lot of rice and it's by far my favorite base for dishes, but nutritional value is not what i look for in rice. I've eaten all sorts of rice, and while i have nothing against wild rice, brown rice or parboiled rice - in fact I liked them all just fine whenever i had them and i believe everyone should try them at least once - it's still white jasmine and basmati rice that tastes the best to me. Probably the one i enjoy least is the short grain variant used for risotto. Ultimately it always depends on the recipe. Certain types of rice fit better to certain recipes than others.

I'll stop eating jasmine rice when I'm dead.
