I’ve the mhw3 bomber force tamper, love it. As said, a couple variables I no longer have to consider. Minimal branding helps

We did, struggled to find considerable differences except for the caffeinated which had greater depth. We found CR3 to be our preference with Swiss Water a bit too long on the finish

Thanks! Annoyed with myself for persevering with flat shoes for so long. I thank RP’s ethos.

Boom

Well if that is the case, we will eagerly await casual news of a 4p bench and a 6p squat

I don't want to get in the habit of posting every PR but this was a big one. 3 plate bench

This is absolutely one to shout about, as will that squat coming up. Assuming you won't be in Loakes :)

On that topic, I've made some significant changes to my back squat (footwear, wider stance, increased ankle mobility) to account for my unnecessarily long femurs, for the first time hitting depth felt comfortable today. Excited to start throwing more on the bar... slowly....

Want to borrow my 64cm Seven? Carbon wheels, eTap. Haven’t ridden in ages and it’s just taking up room. Dented down tube so deposit wouldn’t be crazy

Wow, that’s epic. Where were you (plate wise) in 2019?

EDIT: Inspired, I ripped open some Black Friday shoes and did back squats for the first time in years. I've a long way to go...

Thanks @Ewan111, was a great deal on plates! Yep @Nef, got a few pairs, that should keep me going for a bit.
If/when I get strong enough to deserve a longer bar I'll treat myself then.

First day of RDLs, going to need a 7ft bar and more plates! Any good Black Friday deals?

Nice! How are you feeling today?

I pulled some deadlifts today for the first time in years. Went sumo in an attempt to 1) help with hip strength/flexibility and 2) avoid comparisons with prior numbers. Took it easy and stopped at 95kgx8 but they felt great and got a bit of that CNS buzz that I've been missing.

Like you, will be interested to see how I feel tomorrow, a few sensible sets of Bulgarian split squats on Saturday morning gave me fatigue/brain fog for the rest of the weekend.

Yes. I love mine.

This whole remap impact on longevity question feels like something that should have been answered before but I suspect strong biases at play.

Can clearly see at open throttle the stresses will be greater, but when cruising at a given speed the power output would be the same, the only difference in my mind would be air, fuel and timing. Do the combustion forces differ enough to have a longevity impact?

Edit: wrong thread

We just had our renewal quote, it dropped... feels like a trap

Thank you!

Haven’t tried CARs before, quite a difference between sides and neither were great

When you’re regularly stretching do you see much of a mobility improvement? I always feel like ROM isn’t increasing but - to your point - I feel less fucked

Thanks all, SOC valve incoming!

Not a van (BMW G31 540i) but as someone with a stage 1, it has been a pain to insure even though we checked first with our insurer and they said it would be ok

Have any Gaggia Classic owners replaced/upgraded their steam valve to the new Shades of Coffee one?

Drips don't really bother and (in theory) the Gaggiuino will compensate for any water/pressure losses, but I dislike the steam constantly leaking

EDIT : Just realised, loosing pressure via the steam valve will be affecting the brew, most notably the pre-infusion duration because the profile I typically use is free falling pressure driven

Choo choo!!! Next stop, 10 plates

I’m similar, what have you been doing to improve?

2024 was the year I identified a gluten and dairy intolerance, I don’t miss much but the resurgence of this thread has made me a little sad.

Anyone had luck with a no gluten & dairy mincer?

Thank f. I was worried of receiving an overwhelmingly positive consensus and would feel the need to conform and fix one onto the beautiful cargo bike

mirror on ebike is essential

How so?

Hasn’t left the camera. I’m not great at getting up close and personal with subjects, so find the length works really well for me. Massive and weighty, not subtle on the x-h1

I bought the 75/1.2 recently, otherwise I'd have bitten your hand off, GLWS
