I love kettlebells, so versatile. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Eyes going to crap and things that are like 40 yards and beyond are blurry as hell. Refuse to wear glasses lol. ? I wore contacts from 18 to my mid 20s. Started off with monthly ones but you have to clean those every day so went to dailies which cost a bit more, but were a lot more convenient. I then got my eyes lasered. Cost quite a bit, but definitely worth it! Could drive the next day. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

They get a bad rep because of the lunk rule and the pizza parties, but they aren’t terrible. They’re definitely great for a beginner’s gym. If you get to the point of taking lifting really seriously, you should find a place with more free weights, but getting started or just using it to get in shape, the value is great. Yeah it was not really what I was looking for. No squat racks or free press racks and dumbells didn't go nearly high enough. It was a nice space though Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

That was my hold up ever even going to look at the place, just to much purple and yellow going on, like super aggressive coloring. I don't know who was like "purple and yellow man, that would be sick" . But they need to get dumbbell dropped on them. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Never actually knew anyone who got Lasik, it's something I wanted to do for a long time. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Wore some dumb goggles for 24 hours but after that was good to go. I imagine recovery time is a lot quicker these days. The process, a decade ago, was a bit nerve racking though.

Jlash Posted August 19, 2017 Share Posted August 19, 2017 Big fantasy draft today. I've done zero prep work for the first time in my fantasy football career. And I feel ok about it. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Do your eyes slightly degrade over time still? I've read that a decent amount of the time people will still need reading glasses at some point.

I got a draft on Thursday night and I have a rehearsal, so I'm trying to figure out how I can draft and still look like I'm directing.......

I didn't have to wear goggles, though had to tape on some plastic dishes onto my face so I didn't poke my eye whilst I slept. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
