Dumbbells vs Adjustable

I started 2 months ago.

I started with 10lbs first month.
Now 15 lbs for the second month ready to go up again.

But 20s and 25s are basically 130-140$ and can’t find deals in marketplace.

Are adjustable dumbells worth it, I was always worried due to mixed reviews on durability but I don’t slam my weights or anything.

If anyone recommends some off Amazon worth it I would definitely buy but I’ve seen some crazy 500$ ones and that’s just not in my budget now.

But not sure what to do as I’m trying to recover from health issues and disability etc. I’m new.

Thanks!

iPhone Order Trade In Issue?

Anyone ever order a phone online and enter a trade in. Then when you order it the trade in isn’t showing up anywhere?

I know I’ll contact support but from the rules it sounds like I’d have to return it and redo the order all over again but I had it showing trade in and value when ordering so if it’s not on my end can they fix it or am I just out of luck with this one?

Thanks!

Should I upgrade?

Got an offer, my trucks paid off. I only have 800 miles on it after 1 year. I got a steal on my SV Conv. Package w/ 4x4 for 35k.

But they do offer a grey or black pro4x for 38 OTD.

If I can get a much better interest rate for the Pro4x and only have a 8-10k loan or less. Is it worth the upgrade to a Pro4x?

Thanks!

135LBS - 6FT - 37m

To be clear I was unable to workout for a decade due to health issues. I was 90lbs at one point now trying to work back up to atleast 150+ to start.

I’m one month into my journey but wondering if I can change anything for better muscle growth.

Currently I do 1 day upper body / 1 day lower / rest then repeat.

How often can I do biceps or how often should I do biceps and upper body. Some say I can do every other day. Some say stick to waiting 72 hours.

Any advice welcomed thanks!

Quitting Changed My Life!

I quit video games cold turkey after losing someone close. It was so hard for me to quit especially after that.

Now I go the the gym 2-3x a week and I’ve already seen gains in just one month.

I studied for 1 week and got my drone license.

Now Im starting my own company and working on other video editing software etc and mentally it’s starting to feel so much better than video gaming.

I have lots of goals ahead and always use being disabled as an excuse to keep gaming when in reality it was dopamine but the dopamine of obtaining a pilots license with family and friends to see is the greatest feeling I’ve had in years.

The results I’ve seen in the gym so far I started at such low weights I’m up 20lbs on dumbells alone which now makes other parts of life easier.

Just want to people learn from my mistakes. I promise you there is no excuse for gaming at a certain age in life. Just quit cold turkey and deal with the loss of constant dopamine from video games.

It sucks but soon as I replaced that time
With productive things that I can share with others and real life achievements it’s the best feeling ever in so many ways.

Hope everyone can break the cycle. Blessings

I took your advice. Is it better?

After and before. I was told to let the beard grow longer. I’ll go longer. And to get a fade instead of just a straight 1 down the sides.

Should I do a lower fade next time or what else should I try?

I kept the top the same just some length off until I figure out what to do next.

Thanks 🙏

Advice for tall and super skinny?

Any brands or clothes that work good on tall but underweight men?

I’m 38 with an autoimmune disorder that makes it really hard to gain weight. 6’2 - 130lbs.

I found American apparel athletic T-Shirts are amazing for my body type. But I can never find any pants or other type of brands that are long and fitting.

Thanks! 🙏

Myself being (37M) and my ex fiancé being (38M) have split because I’m disabled…

How do people who disabilities still live a normal life?

This is the second time. I’ve been really close with someone and I’m 100% upfront about my disabilities and limitations. I do have good days but it’s autoimmune and I explain I can have bad days but I still show up.

And yet again, after an engagement and being together over 2 years the came to me the other day saying sorry and crying non stop with me having no clue as to why. I asked and she kept blaming things that didn’t make sense or add up. I told her to be direct and she kept apologize saying she knows she’s a bad person for this but she can’t marry a disabled man.

But yet I’m perfect, she wants me to find someone who can understand I’m disabled and wants to still cook for me and she thinks I’m perfect. Even said so if I’m not disabled we would be? She said together and perfect for each other.

I’m just asking how do disabled people or anyone with any limitation find real long term love. I mean her entire family knew I was disabled they always told me never to worry they don’t judge. She has family members who are disabled! (Which is why I think she got it in her head because she just came back from spending the weekend taking care of her disabled niece)

I just feel so lost. I know even with my limitations the man I am and how well I treat people and don’t let it define me.

But this is the second long term, especially this woman made me believe and feel like the one. And suddenly it goes from good morning my love. To the next hour her admitting it’s all her fault and I’m
Just simple disabled..

Any help or words of wisdom on how to move forward would be greatly appreciated. I definitely walked out immediately and left my key because it just feels so cruel and cold hearted from someone who I just considered to be my future wife.

Thanks guys 🙏

Xifaxan Side Effects

Is it normal when taking these antibiotics to have to pee more often?

I had lots of issues the other night and I end up having to urinate multiple times a night. I just started but I already had bladder issues and went middle of night but it seems to have ramped up?

Is this normal or what would I even ask my doctor because I’ve read this is normal.

I also have reoccurring candida so I’m taking this along with Diflucan.

It’s really destroying my sleep and my bowels are really back and forth so far.

Any tips to help with Xifaxan and frequent urination would be great!

Titan Fall 2 vs Apex MP?

I just got an Xbox Series X and see lots of talk about Titan Fall 2 and Apex.

I’m wondering if anyone can tell me which has the better multiplayer experience for Xbox.

Also can Apex turn off cross platform so you don’t get matched with PC players?

Thanks, I really am tempted to download both but already had some great recommendations from the community and you guys have not disappointed at all

My Wife Is The Best!

Had to put down my best friend of 17 years yesterday. Then my wife brought this with us to the vet and then back home in a bag and left it by more door as I grieved.

She got me a brand new Xbox Series X and said take the weekend and week ahead off if needed and hope this helps.

Shoutout to all the women who let us game when we need it most.

So this happened?

So I was debating Xbox vs PS5. And my lovely wife after work just left this in the room for me and said she’s going to cook dinner and enjoy. Brand new Xbox.

So I’m wondering because she said I can exchange it if needed but do I need anything more?

I don’t game lots mostly the 2 nights she works. Mostly only fc26 and Call of Duty.

Is it worth 200$+ to get the PS5. I thought because the player base is much larger on PS5 but didn’t realize the +200$ difference and it’s much bigger to move the consoles from bedroom to computer room.

Is the Xbox S enough for future FC games and call of duty on regular TVs. Or is the PS5 worth the upgrade for fc26 alone?

Help a brother out. Thanks! 🙏

PS5 like what?

So I just missed this sale for 399. I wanted to get one for my nephew but 600 seems ridiculous.

I’ve checked eBay and marketplace and even people are crazy asking near 500-550$ or even more because of accessories etc.

Anybody know a place to still buy them. Heck I’d pay 500$ new to get it for him. But 600$+ is more than a decent gaming laptop.

Any help would be great. Idk how even a base model on eBay is 700$ which is more than buying at your local Best Buy new.

Or should price not matter get new? Or risk a used one out of someone’s backyard for 400 lol.

Thanks!! 🙏

Best Console for 2 games?

Just curious. I’ve owned both PS and Xbox.

I don’t really dislike or like either.

But I only play FIFA (fc26) and Call of Duty (zombies mostly)

What would be the best console?

I was thinking Xbox X but they both run and only run 60fps and I don’t need extra storage so would the series S be best? I only game 2-4 hours a week tops on weekends if that.

Thanks! If any other recommendations just let me know!

Best Handheld for NFS and Zombies?

So I’ve never been a handheld gamer. But I don’t game enough to keep a console with me anymore.

But I still miss my call of duty zombies and need for speed games.

What would be the best and affordable options?

I researched a little and saw some for 999$ but then I see stuff like the switch for 400$.

Any help would be great!

Which Handheld to use?

I’m tempted to leave console gaming and just keep an iPad around or maybe like a handheld gaming device but was looking for peoples opinion.

I just don’t have time to enjoy games or keep paying membership fees when I play once a weekend etc. but I still have health issue so would like to game when I’m stuck at home.

I know this is a console group but I’m looking at handhelds or just iPad gaming as I’ve seen cloud gaming etc.

Anyone have any good experience with any platform that’s handhelds or iPad gaming please let me know.

Thanks! 🙏
