Video Wallpaper file size

Not sure if anyone else has this issue, but I’ve yet to find a video wallpaper file (mp4) > 20 MB that will not be choppy/glitchy once I select it and load it in the launcher settings. Are there settings I’m not toggling correctly that’s making this happen?

Thanks all for any tips!

Lifters who also shred

Hola, reddit mtbers. Looking to pick your brains --

37 intermediate-to-advanced rider with two little kids, garage gym in Denver. Lift 5-6 days a week, get out on the bike typically 2-3 times a week (usually Virginia Canyon, Maryland Mountain or a few others I rotate between along the Metro area/front range).

I used to compete in powerlifting so the gym thing is pretty baked in at this point (also helps I converted my 1-car garage into a pretty sick lifting den). That said, I'm not trying to drop strength training anytime soon, especially as I'm getting older.

The problem: They keep stepping on each other. Heavy squats Thurs and Sat's climb is a has my legs yelling. A ride Mon/Tues and then in the gym I'm feeling it. I've done this long enough to optimize my programming to give various muscle groups rest. But honestly not sure if I'm just programming it wrong, or if that's what happens when you try to do two things seriously. Or maybe I am just 37 and starting to feel my age lol.

So my question to all you riders who gym regularly too: Do you actually plan around it? If so, how? Deload before a big ride week, periodize it, something else? Or do you accept one of them is always gonna be a little compromised and just push through it?

Appreciate hearing from y'all.
