- I always start every workout with a quarter mile jog on the treadmill to warm muscles up.
-Every exercise is to failure or 1-2 RIR.
- I try to lift a heavy enough weight that I’m failing around 5-7 reps
I am getting back into weightlifting but have some idea of how it is.

-Pullups, 4 sets til failure
-deadlift 4 sets 5-7 reps
- cable rows (2 sets of cable rows where I’m pulling to chest for upper mid back and 2 sets of cable rows where I’m pulling to waist for lower mid back)
- shrugs 3 sets til failure (I use dumbbells but am thinking I should use a barbell for better activation)
- preacher curls 3 sets til 1-2 rir

If you have any thoughts on this or exercises where you really feel the burn or feel are highly effective let me know. I don’t really feel much when I deadlift or do shrugs because I think I’m hindering by my wrists, forearm grip. My hands end up hurting halfway through sets.

I’m not sure why playing fps games like kovaaks or Fortnite are completely choppy and frame times aren’t consistent.

I’ve ran many many various stress tests on my cpu, ram, and gpu. I’ve never gotten any error on any of them when I overclock my components or when I leave them on default settings.
I’ve used different mice and switched out mousepads so I doubt this is a hardware issue.

I’ve fresh installed windows several times using latest drivers (installing chipset from amd, lan from Realtek site, etc) updating windows and I’ve still encountered gameplay that was still choppy.
I’ve installed windows and didn’t update any updates or drivers to see if it was a driver problem. Still didn’t fix the issue. The only driver I installed most recent every time is nvidia.

I don’t understand what the issue could be. It’s like a bug plaguing my system. Very rarely do I hop on, and everything is working perfectly. Most of the time my game/input is just delayed and not as responsive as it should be.
I have really high scores on kovaaks and generally use my performance on this game as a metric to how well my system is feeling. When I am not even getting close to my high scores, I know that something is wrong with my computer and I don’t know why.
Any help troubleshooting is greatly appreciated. I’d really like to get to the bottom of this.
