Hi fellow otf degens! I have a weird question that I am completely prepared to accept, “you’re just weak for now,” as an answer. Whenever there is any kind of deadlift on the floor, I end up with joint pain in my lower back the night of/day after.

I’ve asked multiple coaches about form, and while they have little things here and there, it usually ends in me doing it mostly right .

My lower back & core in general definitely need the most work on my body historically, so it’s very well possible I just need to build up the strength to get over this. But does anyone else deal with this? If so, for those who have gotten past it, what did you do?

Thanks!

It’s fireworks folks. Cherry Blossom festival. Go about your business.

I just had the most bizarre experience with a cyclist. I’m at a stop sign and see that a cross traffic cyclist isn’t going to sop even though I have the right of way. So I let him through and slowly start my turn when he’s 70% of the way through the intersection. Somehow he takes offense to…me letting him break the law? He slows way down and gets into the center of the lane to block traffic. So I pull all the way into the other lane to safely pass around him to get away from someone who is clearly having a time…and he starts taking pictures of my car and yelling at me.

Honest question for the cyclists here…what gives? Did I somehow break the social code?

Not sure if anyone else is experiencing, but both my wife’s and my IPhone 15 Pros stopped charging via usb-c today. Thankfully, this forum had an answer. Not sure if it’s just weird luck or something in the software, but this previous comment fixed it:

Just leaving this here in case it was not just randomly our phones.
