That’s cool!
Idk how common this is but if I think hard enough about a food, I can literally taste it and mentally combine flavors in my head

Mine is like a double edged sword, but one side is very dull.
There are only a few things I remember from ages 22-23, but when we drove past the motel I stayed at for a greatful dead concert, I recognized it immediately.
My little boy is busting my balls about trying to set a new under 9’s dead lift world record. It was set in the USA a few weeks back at 90kg. My son (who turns 10 in September 2022) is adamant he can get to 100kg before the summer.
Confession:
I’ve said no as I think training that hard as a kid is bad for you. He can carry on training. But I’m not having him chase numbers like that. I know how I get about it, and he is more competitive than I am. I’m not confident in his ability to self regulate or my ability to monitor him well enough to know if he is over doing it. Which is a shame. As I genuinely think he could do it. He smoked 50kg for an easy double this week. After months of not deadlifting. The little crap bag picked up a 42kg kettle bell and duck walked it across the gym straight after.
I think that’s pretty awesome. My kiddo just turned 9 and while he comes out with me to lift sometimes, he’s not super into it. He likes roblox and Mario bros. much more.
Honesty he is super keen. And competitive. But he has no concept of “enough”. And every time he sees someone on line doing something “epic” he wants to beat them.
God mine are all over Roblox. But we limit it to 45min a day or more if they have done proper exercise. Like rugby or gymnastics.
Oh, you big tease.
You gotta post some pics of the finished product.
Skills man. You have them. ![]()
Cast iron, dawg. People always think you need some insane heat to get that color. The thicker the steak, the less heat you need, provided your pan can hold temp.
I cooked that sucker and got that dark char with a 4.0/10 on an electric stove.
The char is beautiful, but what I really like is the consistency of doneness throughout.
Confession: Discussion of cookware materials always sends me on a foray into properties of materials which I am ill equipped to really understand.
I think I’m going to have to lower the weights on my deadlift in the program I’m doing. I feel like a pussy…
Found out late last night that one of the guys on my relay team can’t make the race due to military obligations. Looking like that’s going to shift our registration to individual races, and the difficulty factor just increased by a significant margin.
I like yoga and don’t know why I don’t do more of it.
I like that too. Especially with the coconut shavings and little bits of chocolate.
I confess I find body hair very off putting
Wait until it goes grey.
I confess there are lots of things in this post- (or is it mid-?) pandemic world that I find frustrating, but the cost of dumbbells and weight plates is near the top right now.
Unrelated, does anyone get a ringing in their ears after hard effort?
I have had an MP3 skip on max effort work
