Mostly it’s the science of how the two systems function. The nervous system is more adaptable at up/down regulating transmitters/receivers in the neural junctions which doesn’t require a lot of energy. The muscular system needs to literally grow, which is somewhat even against biology. Big muscles are often not only unnecessary, they’re only really made when they’re forced to be made, and if you stop lifting, they’ll go away. The nervous system will down-regulate too given the chance but its a faster responding system.

Some basics:

2-4 weeks for you nervous system to improve.
4-8 weeks for your muscular system to improve.
Diet for weight loss.
Lift heavy to failure. eat and sleep for big muscles.

Hasn’t someone already suggested L4D2? I only played the first and was pretty offended when they promptly released the second and expected me to pay for it. They did eventually turn around and give it away but IIRC it was under a year from release and they expected me to buy a whole other game.

Another doot for Remnant, really enjoyed the odd universe and two player coop.

Battlefront 2 multi player for mindless star wars pew pew fun.

I never used Twitter, I don’t see a reason to use bluesky.

Bro, just need another trap door.

Kill off the other billionaires.

All that stuff is great if you’ve the time. I’ve got maybe 1-2 hours a week for the game.

I’m definitely experiencing FOMO with the warbonds I don’t have. I don’t have the time to play/grind or the inclination to pay for them, so I am missing out. There’s three warbonds that I don’t have and sure I’ll eventually get them maybe but right now I’m missing out. Being able to unlock things is a big part of a game to me. I’m not dedicated enough to HD2 to skip the other games I want to play in order to get the unlocks. The whole process is lowering my interest in the game. I paid for it, I want to use the new toys that get released with it. If I were to buy it today, I’d be so far behind I’d feel short-changed in what I got access to.

My Helldivers gripe is that the war bonds cost too much for the casual player. 1000 super credits takes a while to gather, and even grind. Paying actual money for them is about $25aud per war bond. I think there’s eight war bonds now? That’s a full day’s income, and you still need to collect medals to unlock the contents of the warbond.

Edit: You all don’t need to explain this to me, I’m aware of the options for getting super credits. None of that changes how I feel about the game and that I’m losing interest because of it.

Reddit.

In Australia, you’re considered at fault for reversing accidents. Backing out is riskier.

Never. Single for maybe ten years now.

Team fortress 2 still has a massive community.

From what I understand about blood pressure, you should consider taking the meds now and then moving off them once diet and exercise have helped the situation. Hypertension is bad for you health.

I probably wont remember. It’s classic sci-fi. Nice to read some that’s written so long ago (1959) before so many ideas about technology were established. The first half at least is mostly a boot camp experience, somewhat reminds me of Full Metal Jacket, or really any boot camp story.
