Team Narrow Squat Stance isn't mad... just disappointed.
(But seriously, I did the same when my back felt fuct and it did help. Problem was that my knee hated it more than my back liked it.)

Yeah, I definitely thought of you when I mentioned the wider stance. I guess I'm a fair weather fan of the narrow stance. Truth be told, my version of a "wider" stance is still pretty narrow.
I've considered buying a second, identical scale to the one I already have at home for this exact purpose. Though, as you suggested, I suspect that any practical use for this information would be ... limited.broseph wrote: ↑Thu Feb 15, 2024 2:16 pmFirst thing they do is have you stand with each foot on a separate scale and measure your imbalance of weight distribution. Seems like that probably changes moment to moment and is never symmetrical but gives them a good starting point to convince you of needing your back cracked. For your skepticism.
I can't wait for the stories that will follow.Bonus points for having a big loud poster about vaccines in the kids' area: "Do your research before putting POISONS in your body!"
Fortunately you lift at home and don't also feel a burning need to explain your perceived inadequacies to other folks at the gym like I find myself doing constantly and then hating myself. I mean I would never do that but some might.
Haha yeah, this just became a must watch space.
Understood. That's, like, my middle name.
Understandable.The dude's wife is one of my wife's gym friends, and I've been given strict orders to not make things uncomfortable for anyone.
Sounds normal in my book.Not to sound like a sociopath, but I have a tendency to treat interpersonal relationships differently when I have something to gain from them (this is normal, right?).
Can relate.For example, I've recently been given a modicum of authority at work, and I find myself being weirdly friendly and tolerant of people to whom I'm normally indifferent (at best). I walk away from interactions questioning who I am.

Maybe the real sociopaths were the friends we made along the way.Renascent wrote: ↑Sat Feb 17, 2024 10:56 am I'm all for knowing myself better as a result of unfamiliar situations, but it gets weird and uncomfortable when someone I actively dislike seemingly comes around to regard me as a trustworthy and comforting individual. Then I start to wonder if I really am a sociopath.
I gather that you feel about Drake the way that I do about the most intolerable being ever to walk the earth fucking Pitbull.
You talkin' about Mr. 305? Mr. Worldwide? We can bond over that shared hatred.
With great power comes great responsibility...
Yeah yeah, dummy DCR can barely work a television remote, forget about embed a gif. I'll see myself out.
... I just can't quit you.
How long until you're allowed to squat again?
