And I hate that people couldn't see his aura.
Cyberpunk is low life high tech. We know societies get the way they are through politics, science, technology, culture, etc. Culture and politics can be molded by the times. Science and technology are pointed towards the future that the culture wants to strive towards. So nothing is fixed in place.
The societal pendulum swings one way and then it swings the other. So is it possible that the low life pendulum will swing back to high morals through the children and grandchildren of the cyberpunk generation? Will they reject the vanity and lawlessness? Will the megacorporations go bankrupt and fail when young people stop consuming their products?
Will people see those sci fi city lights and advertising billboards and be burnt out of them, so they darken the cities once again and legislate against the massive billboards? Advertising must go through a regulation committee to gauge its effect on the population. City lights must not create too much light pollution.
Science turns 100% green. Technology is created to bring our cities back to nature. Trees and vines across city buildings. Chlorophyll farms that can convert millions of tons of CO2 a day.
Then... The pendulum swings back...
I feel like this place doesn't go any deeper than that.
I used to lift, but I'm obese now. I'm doing a weight loss clinic with my hospital. They're big on lifting and protein.
I've been too scared to lift because I probably have PTSD from an incident 6 months ago and I'm working with a psychiatrist on it now. 6 months ago I got an episode of a-fib on the bench press from pressing too hard and holding my breath, bad form I know, the breath holding is instinctual with me and I never really took it seriously. I've never had a-fib before. I just knew that my chest and head felt weird. I developed a panic attack as I was waiting for my mom, and my heartrate went up to 160 and blood pressure went up to 180 over 100 I think it was. I started getting pain in my throat. The gym called 911 against my wishes and the ambulance crew said, "I strongly recommend you let us take you because you might be having a heart attack." Shit! But good thing is I didn't have a heart attack. I was given blood thinners and a medicine called diltiazem
Since then I've just done the elliptical and I've been too scared to lift. The cardiologist told me with diltiazem and proper breathing during lifting my risk now for a-fib is very low. So I decided to try it today.
First I started the workout with my normal 15 minutes on the elliptical at high resistance. I have spinal issues so most leg workouts are too risky. I've found a lot of success building my glutes and quads with high resistance cardio. I usually just do that and then go home.
Then I added
Bench press 20 lbs + bar weight, 3 sets of 15
Bicep machine 25lbs both arms at a time, 3 sets of 10
Straight arm pull downs 25lbs both arms at a time, 3 sets of 10
A-symmetrical farmer carries, 25lbs dumbbell across the walking track once per side
Dumbbell chest press, 20lbs per arm, 1 set of 10.
My muscles are shaking which concerned me for a minute but I remember that this happens every time I take a break from lifting and then get back into it. I just rest my arms on my computer desk and do my work.
Any advice for low weight high rep lifting is appreciated.
Thanks for listening if you made it this far.
