Since talking about age, I woke up at 3am with a super painful calf cramp out of nowhere

On a relative scale, how old does that make me? Had a good workout after work, legs stuff consisted of deadlift 3x3 and front squat (light) 3x10. None of that should have triggered my calf to pretzel itself and harden like that. Fuck.

Eat some bananas.

How old are you?

I'm an acrobat, so I have to handbalance almost everyday. Being able to hold a handstand is cool. Being good enough to hold one for several minutes, is fucking tedious to maintain.

Wait, you're an actual acrobat?

You get enough calcium? I used to play water polo and we'd eat calcium supplements before each game to prevent calf and foot cramps.

28

I even use that high blood pressure "lite" salt in my cooking not because of any blood pressure issues, but because they keep the sodium level down by making the "salt" half potassium. So seems a warranted supplement in my mind.

Huh. Could be that. Didn't realize the calcium connection to cramps. Used to drink bout a glass of milk a day often with dinner. Wife quit dairy a month ago and has found its helped her excema, and just due to that my own milk consumption went down. Will see about bringing the milk back.

27 years ago the federal government murdered Randy Weaver's family.

On Aug. 21, 1992, after separatist Randy Weaver failed to appear in court, an 11-day standoff started at his home on Ruby Ridge near Naples, Idaho.

On Aug. 21, U.S. marshals killed Weaver’s 14-year-old son, Sammy, after he shot at a marshal who had shot his dog. A marshal also was killed.

On the second day of that standoff, Weaver's wife, Vicki, was killed by FBI sharpshooter Lon Horiuchi.

From history.com:

"In the second day of a standoff at Randy Weaver's remote northern Idaho cabin, FBI sharpshooter Lon Horiuchi wounds Randy Weaver, Kevin Harrison, and kills Weaver's wife, Vicki.

Randy Weaver had been targeted by the federal government after failing to appear in court to face charges related to his selling of two illegal sawed-off shotguns to an Alcohol, Tobacco and Firearms (ATF) informant. On August 21, 1992, after a period of surveillance, U.S. marshals came upon Harrison; Weaver; Weaver's 14-year-old son, Sammy; and the family dog, Striker, on a road near the Weaver property. A marshal shot and killed the dog, prompting Sammy to fire at the marshal. In the ensuing gun battle, Sammy and U.S. Marshal Michael Degan were shot and killed.

A tense standoff ensued, and on August 22 the FBI joined the marshals besieging Ruby Ridge.

Later that day, Harris, Weaver, and his daughter, Sarah, left the cabin, allegedly for the purpose of preparing Sammy's body for burial. FBI sharpshooter Lon Horiuchi, waiting 200 yards away, opened fire, allegedly because he thought Harrison was armed and intending to fire on a helicopter in the vicinity. Horiuchi wounded Weaver, and the group ran to the shed where Sammy's body was lying. When they attempted to escape back into the cabin, Horiuchi fired again, wounding Harrison as he dove through the door and killing Vicki Weaver, who was holding the door open with one hand and cradling her infant daughter with the other. Horiuchi claimed he didn't know that Vicki Weaver was standing behind the door. Harris, Weaver, and Weaver's three daughters surrendered nine days later."

Weaver and Harris were acquitted of Michael Degan's murder in 1993. In 1994 they filed federal civil rights cases against the FBI and U.S. marshals. The government settled the case for $3.1 million.

In 1997, Lon Horiuchi was charged with involuntary manslaughter but the charge was dismissed in 1998. The ruling was appealed in 2001 but a new prosecutor declined to pursue the charge.

From history.com: “The controversial standoff spawned a nationwide debate on the use of force by federal law enforcement agencies, and a U.S. Senate panel accused the federal agencies involved of ‘substantial failures’ in their handling of the Ruby Ridge operation. Of particular controversy was an FBI ‘rule of engagement’ implemented at the beginning of the Ruby Ridge siege that stated ‘any armed adult male observed in the vicinity of the Weaver cabin could and should be killed.’ Many condemned this policy as unconstitutional. Rumors that the FBI had engaged in a cover-up regarding the Ruby Ridge operation were verified when E. Michael Kahoe, former chief of the FBI’s violent crimes section, pleaded guilty to obstruction of justice in 1996. Kahoe, who had destroyed an official bureau critique of the standoff, was sentenced to 18 months in prison.”

As far as holidays go, Play Stupid Games, Win Stupid Prizes Day is pretty good. Sometimes I celebrate it by not being a paranoid white supremacist, not selling sawed off shotguns, not dodging the warrant by holing up and preparing to kill the government, not shooting at a helicopter, and not hiding like a bitch while my idiot son takes point and gets himself into a firefight with the feds.

So his 14 year old son was off walking and the government surprised him. After that his wife was shot by a ATF sniper while holding her baby unarmed. Is that really how you want your government to conduct itself? Even if you somehow think that it was justified to entrap weaver into selling the shotgun at issue do you really think it was okay to send a sniper to kill a woman holding her baby or a 14 year old?

I get leg cramps at night when I am depleted of either water or vitamins/minerals. Like when I have been drinking and having too much coffee and not enough water. Don't know if age has anything to do with that except I may be more prone to experience it. It could be different for you I'm sure.

Nobody sent a sniper to kill a woman, the dumb cunt was standing behind a door while the men were running back to home base safey safe after getting clipped outside playing Rambo. Bunch of piece of shit Nazi LARPers thinking the law doesn't apply to them and can't wait for the race war. Infiltrate them all. The kid wasn't "off walking" either you nut job. They were patrolling for feds. Looks like they found them. It's a shame any of them lived except the daughters.

Why is it that "people should date within their culture" rather than "I should date within my culture"?

Just LOL @ white supremacists playing victim over shit like that and Waco and the Washington Wildlife Reserve standoff.

They were armed and dangerous and still got tons of second chances. You only get that nicety when you're a white supremacist. If a bunch of black nationalists occupied a federal building, they'd be dead before it even got reported.

Dude, you're young as fuck. Lol.

Drink lots of water and eat bananas as polish recommended.

I use to get these terrible calf cramps post work out/WOD. Crippling ones...

Proper stretching helped alleviate that.

What's your position on Waco.

I often get into arguments with the far right regarding this. (On other forums)

 

[HockeyBjj]

How much weight for the lefts?

385 3x3 deadlift. 225 and 315 warmup then 225x5 at the end

I still have plenty room to go with my deadlift. Probably 40+ pounds more before it becomes a strain. Just doing a nice slow 5 pound per week increment which I've been doing since June and cleared to lift after torn mcl.

To the calf cramps, I used to have a problem with them cramping up on me when trying to clamp down on the face/chest to finish an arm bar in live rolling. Like, hamstring curling around them somehow triggers my calves to go fuck you

It's a lot like the WR moderation policy.

In the larger picture, another apocalyptic nut job who wanted to go down in flames and did. The government made mistakes in both cases, but that doesn't change who the good guys and the bad guys are. When you're charged and say "no" and arm up and get aggressive, you should consider yourself dead until further notice.

It's really bizarre that it sometimes happens out of the blue like that .

One time, when I was about your age, a girl invited me over to..."have relations ".

Long story short, she gets on top to ride me...something happens and I get this terrible borderline tear inducing calf cramp. I go limp, and then she starts crying because she thinks that I think shes ugly. Lol
