Blend it hot, like a tea. Dissolves better.
I used to add it to about 4oz of hot water, then add a splash of juice/gatorade/whatever and slam.

Exactly. Even IF it might theoretically help the teeth of those who can’t afford dental care, why should it go into my stomach? Into the groundwater? Be used to wash dishes?
How much of tap water is actually used for drinking these days?
The whole premise is absurd.

That’s an American consumer problem, not an Amazon problem. People can buy whatever they want, which often turns out to be cheap Chinese options.
Doesn’t help that Chinese comanufacturers can commercialize new products light years faster than American counterparts on average

That picture makes me think plates over 25lb would be banging together constantly.
Open trap bar is definitely simpler.
You could always do double heavy sandbags.

Grip training always focuses too much on the “grip” muscles and not enough on the extensors.

I’ve been on an infinite repeat of PPSA Pool Season for about 3 years at 44.
This program has gotten me stronger than Starting Strength, Stronglifts, etc ever did. Plus I feel better and “look” better than ever. I add to my training maxes every 4wks and my numbers are going up despite not really striving to go heavier these days.
I really wish I’d done a more similar program back in my late 20’s.

I have a Nordic Bench (Tib Bar Guy/Apex), GHD (Dicks), and 45dg Back Extension (ATG).
The adjustable Nordic bench has been my favorite, helping me tremendously and giving my track athlete kids bulletproof hammies.
Lately I’ve begun loading the 45dg extension and it is sneaky hard.
What I love about all of the above is minimal lower back risk. I still do RDLs but less and less.

re: Going to a PT for neck/trap issues. What to expect
Posted by LSUfan20005 on 9/9/26 at 6:34 am to boxcarbarney
Probably all of the above.
But recognize that if your upper traps are chronically tight it may be due to underdeveloped or comparatively weak lower traps or rhomboids - so a starter routine might be the appropriate first step.
————
One can be very fit and quite strong with imbalances that create issues. I remember going to a PT years ago with shoulder issues and he told me my back was weak. I was lifting 4x per week and setting PRs, but turns out just doing pull-ups and rows left my mid back weaker. Facepulls and pull aparts felt like remedial work but solved my issues.

RICE doesn’t do shite.
Get him on Knees Over Toes, start with ATG Zero and progress.
Tore mine at 40 and knees are stronger than ever thanks to KOT. No surgery.

Every Braum’s near me is disgusting - the ice cream area littered with drippings from every flavor, fries everywhere, grease coating everything in the place.

I’m thinking about calling it a year and just doing a heavy mulch.
My beds have fought the good fight and are just tired. Even the okra is struggling.
6wks, 2 decent rains.

If you train through the spring you’ll be acclimated enough that it’s really not that rough.
IMO cold winters are harder, the bar gets so cold it numbs your hands.

Recommend pushing to Hot Springs if you can day one, stay at Oaklawn. Makes for a much better day 2.
I’d honestly prefer to stay in Bentonville or Rogers, and definitely recommend Bentonville first for things to do (Crystal Bridges, Momentary, Downtown Bentonville bars and restaurants, great trails everywhere.) Rent a mountain bike in Bentonville and just explore (even paved trails)

How are you keeping up with watering? We are in the same area, and I’m not retired so it’s tough!
4wks no rain at my house, steady 100dg weather. About 35 drops today and likely mandatory water restrictions incoming.

Exactly what I’ve done in the past, but every time the dealer magically finds me a better rate.
