Weight lifting vs Pilates form

Random question, but when squatting in the gym I’ve always been told “knee over toe”. The goal range of motion is to get those knees in line with your toes when squatting. However, I also do mat Pilates classes & lagree. Every. Single. Time. We’re in any form of a squat in these classes, with all instructors they always que “knees right in line with ankles”. After weight lifting and practicing deeper squats I find I really have to stare at myself in the mirror and stick my butt out, bend over much further, to get my knees to stay tracking with the ankles. What’s the difference and why?

What size Dutch oven are we using!?

My first ever loaf! I’m happy with it. Tastes yummy, has great spring! However, it doesn’t have that pretty look others have because while in the oven mine literally took over the entirety of my Dutch oven. Since it was my first loaf I just picked up the largest one from homegoods but definitely want to invest in something much better for my future bakes! What size should I be on the hunt for?

17 pro vs wait for the 18 pro?

I’m currently running a 12pro max & it’s lasted me very well since release. I use my phone for a lot of social media for my local hot yoga/pilates studio. The quality of video recording in the darker rooms just doesn’t hold up to the new iPhones. I’m tempted to just go get the 17 pro now so I can start getting higher quality videos, and I’m obsessed with the orange. However, if the camera quality from the 18 pro is going to be significantly better I’ll just hold out. What do we think?

Was given a starter now LOST

Last Saturday I was given a sourdough starter! Yay! But now I’m completely lost as every recipe and people online all have so many different answers it’s beginning to become confusing and overwhelming. I have had it my fridge since I received it. I’d like to try to bake a loaf this weekend.
My plan was to take it out the fridge tonight (Friday). Feed it Saturday morning. 1:1:1. Leave it out of my fridge overnight? Mix my dough Sunday morning I was thinking 100g starter, 500g flour, 350g water? Shape it. Let it sit about 3 hours then bake! Are my plans accurate or is this going to turn into a disaster? lol please help I feel so lost!

Summer heat precision move??

I went on the website at exactly 12:00 yesterday & the long sleeve precision move top still said “coming soon”. But if I click the little plus bag from my wishlist tab it just says “sold out”. I know oners new drops have a trend of selling out immediately, but why does it still say “coming soon” and nothing else from the collection does, or is sold out?? Have they truly just not dropped yet? I’m confused & I want one lol.

Edit: I messaged Oner on Instagram & it hasn’t dropped yet for others wondering the same🙏

Tattoo has faded. Time to make it more fall like!

My tattoo is officially 10 years old & has clearly faded massively. I blame myself for not the greatest sun protection & being young and dumb when I first got it. I had the ugly sunflower to begin with (and that’s a terrible cover up I got in some guys kitchen). My birthday is Halloween so my original idea was to make a sunflower field, with pumpkins, a black cat, a jack-o’-lantern scarecrow, spooky moon with bats. My mom talked me out of that saying maybe one day I wouldn’t love it. So I decided to go with the skull, spider webs, fall leaves, and stick to the flowers. I love the work, but it’s not giving fall. Now that it’s faded so much it looks like a beautiful spring sleeve lol. What can I do to make this undoubtedly a fall sleeve?
First two pics were new last 2 are its current state.

Do we think Paige was talking about Nick Viall?

In the new ep Paige was mentioning how she was talking to someone from Netflix and doesn’t think Netflix should do their reunions live. She then said she brought up specific hosts that they shouldn’t keep hiring. With Nick Viall getting his own show to host, and doing the Temptation Island reunion on his own channel, I can’t help but feel like that’s who she was referring to. What do we think? I personally kind of enjoy him & his wives hosting, I feel like they ask the questions we all want to know.
