re: Tendinitis-please discuss
Posted by got2ears on 1/4/20 at 8:52 am to tigerbandpiccolo
You're going to make it, especially if you can pull off a crow pose -- I think if I ever tried that my wrists/elbows would hurt too.
Likely a forearm muscle strain that will subside with rest, but could also be the beginnings of tendon issues. If you're wanting to dig into tendonitis, the best site I've found is Overcoming Tendonitis. The author has posted a ton on Reddit, and has a book on this that just came out, but you can get a lot from this page. He covers everything from the traditional R.I.C.E. therapies to edgier stuff like peptide injections. If the pain doesn't go away on its own, trying the recommended stretches & eccentrics might help.

Ah the pesky G-police. No worries, I just saw your awesome review of Greyskull's LP ( lsu777 on Greyskull LP ) and in that thread, Hu's mentioning of the program compilation thread ( TD H/F Lifting Programs Thread ), so these will keep me busy for a while -- thanks for this trove of info!
lsu777, this is an awesome list, thanks for compiling it. Those links at the bottom of your post (like to Alsruhe) no longer work, so I'm wondering if they were program documents, videos, or webpages? Just looking to learn more before jumping into one of these, thanks.
Rep520: Thank you! I also LOVE these banded dislocations as a warmup, and also find myself doing them on days off or even twice a day just to undo the wrongs I do to my shoulders hunched at a desk. Doing them with bands is so much more comfortable than a pipe or stick, because you can really dial in the tension based on where you grip the bands. Unfortunately they nor the dozens of other hacks I've tried for my elbows have cured my cubital tunnel & tendonosis, so I'll likely buy the SSB before giving up squats.
re: Crepinsek Safety Squat Bar Review

Thanks for posting this detailed review with nice pics. I came across this Googling for a gym in Baton Rouge that has a SSB so I could try one before buying. Only gym I see is Centurion Fitness, so I may go see if I can pay to try it before I buy one.
I've got elbow issues that a low bar (& even high bar) squat aggravate, so am hoping a SSB will help with that like it does the shoulders.
Am wondering if anyone else has seen an SSB in their gym in BR, and if so, where? Thanks in advance.

Sounds like your laptop adapters and other "wall wart" devices are using DC power anyway, perhaps look into DC-to-DC converters?
Some of these devices will take the 12V and step it up to 19-20V power many laptops need.
Not having to convert to AC not only saves your 12V battery life, it also reduces risk of the dirty signal caused by some of the cheaper modified sine wave inverters (although I hear most of that concern is perpetuated by marketing -- it seems that most UL-approved electronics can handle even the dirtier modified sine waves just fine).
A good technical review of this can be seen here:

Andy,
Ask which cellular carriers your alarm communicaates on -- if it's AT&T, it'll be problematic right now due to many of their towers still being down due to the flooding, so be aware of that if you're installing/testing right now.
I also had hesitations on cutting the land line, but was forced to when we moved into an old house that had more problems with old/twicthy telecom wiring that gave the alarm fits. Cellular solved that issue until now.
Even with the cell towers being an issue, I'm amazed at how fast I get a text (usually within 1-2seconds) after an alarm is triggered. Phone calls from a monitoring service are nice, but a text with zone fault specifics is quicker and allows me to know what's up even if I can't immediately answer a call. I think that "classic" local systems (eg Custom Security) as well as newer global ones (SimpliSafe) all now have options for text alerts.
