[quote]So to be honest your specs are bad for 2021. And you need to upgrade your os.[/quote] Not going to argue with you there. But for runnijg MCC I was thinking should be serviceable or even good for running decent frame rate 1080p. Hoping Equivalent to playing it on an Xbox one in terms of per...

How is Halo MCC on PC?

Posted by Finn on 9/20/21 at 10:09 am
Been getting the itch to go back and play the old Halo's recently. Was about to borrow a friend's xbone but noticed they released it on PC as well. Any differences between PC vs Xbox? My PC is running Windows 7 and have had occasional issues with newer games these days with compatibility wh...

Grip failing on deadlifts

Posted by Finn on 7/15/21 at 7:44 pm
I'm OK if I have to do 1 or 2 reps, even with heavier weight. But if I'm doing sets of >6 reps with atleast moderate weight, my grip goes to shite. Even when incorporating almost 5 second pauses in between reps, doesn't help much. I'm trying to stick with conventional style grip. mixed grip a...

Frequent hamstring pulls

Posted by Finn on 6/23/21 at 7:29 pm
I cannot consistently workout hamstrings without pulling them. I've had periods for a few months here/there with success but it's only a matter of time. RDLs, stiff leg deadlifts, hamstring curls....even lighter weight, selectively doing one of these, eventually they will bite. Probably some...

re: Need a new game rec

[quote] Mind giving examples of games you do like? ? [/quote] I usually like those types of games. I liked most of the previous AC games. I found Valhalla really empty and slow paced. Fallen order was also very empty. More puzzles than combat. I found the combat clunky and repetiti...

re: The Greyskull Methods- A Primer

Posted by Finn on 5/26/21 at 9:57 am
[quote] Prolly will at first, but who cares, the body adapts. But mainly it does cause people push the bodyweight way too hard. Every set should be easy as hell.[/quote] So are you doing a dedicated workout session with bodyweight exercises with mild intensity rep ranges or are you doing random ...

re: The Greyskull Methods- A Primer

Posted by Finn on 5/24/21 at 3:36 pm
Has anyone had success implementing the frequency portion of this program? (Bodyweight pushups, pullups). I haven't even attempted it yet because I've had pushups/pullups negatively impacting my core lifts in the past which Ive attributed to lack of rest time...
Having a debate with a friend. Im going chevy suburban. My friend thinks the Lincoln Navigator has superior safety features given the higher price. We both assumed the SUVs have superior flip/spinout risk compared to upsized pickups. ...
Anybody dealt with this? Not necessarily pain, moreso discomfort which can pretty become bad if I push it. Get it with moderate weight on shoulder press, lat raises, shrugs primarily. I do not do any presses or pulls behind my head. I even get it sometimes if I have to sit for long periods wi...
I currently have 2 bedrooms with old carpet. My neighbors recently bought a couple of pallets of tile and has a lot left over that he's willing to give me for free. I was thinking about pulling up the carpet in both spare bedrooms and replacing with tile. We have a dog and it would be much ea...

Purchasing for my wife's birthday next week. She's on Verizon. I'm assuming I'm going to get price gouged going through Verizon. Am I better off buying an unlocked version off eBay? Looking at either iPhone 10 or 11. Don't want to spend more than $500, ideally a new phone. She's coming from a...
