How to remove myoreps from smart generation

MacroFactor Workouts / Training

I've searched but can't find out how to remove myoreps from the options the smart generation uses - I hate myoreps but the smart generation seems to have changed over time to always include them. How do I stop it from doing this?

Hello all

I bought my first Motorbike in January - brand new, rubbish Lexmoto (I know, I know). It has around 200 miles on the clock as of today.

I know nothing, and was looking forward to learning more about motorbike maintenance - but now face an extended period of time with the bike being stored in my back garden.

Does anyone have any tips on what I should be doing? I've got a cover on it, and it's secured to a post in the garden. But I've read various things about fuel going bad, tyres needing rotating - and am a bit lost.

Thanks in advance for any advice you can give this newbie...!

Hello pen enthusiasts!

After years of giving up and thinking I was just terrible at writing, I've recently trialled dozens of pens to see what works well for me; different pens make my handwriting more or less legible. The clear winner is the Pilot V-Pen Erasable Ink Fountain Pen, which you can see here.

While I love the disposable nature of the pens (I have a habit of losing them), I'd like to buy a cartridge fountain pen that's as identical to the V-Pen as possible. I've tried the Pilot MR2 which is fine, but doesn't quite have the same flow as the V-Pen (which I belive is more scratchy? Hard for me to verba

Hi all

I'm have a non-technical background, mostly in law, and am attempting to understand the implications of software defined networks in the work I do. However I don't have the underlying understanding of how networks traditionally work to allow me to grasp how software defined networks operate.

Can anyone recommend an introductory book or textbook on networks which would be helpful please?

Thanks!

r/kettlebell•

I'm primarily training for powerlifting and would like to incorporate kettlebell swings as an accessory for deadlifts. However I only have 2x 16kg (35lbs) kettlebells.

Using one for swings feels too light, so would using both for swings be fine or would I be better selling one (or both) of the 16kg kettlebells and buying a 28kg or 36kg kettlebell?

Thanks in advance - and sorry if there's a better place to ask this kind of beginner/stupid question, just let me know and I'll move it!

Do I need a preworkout?

Nope - in general, you don't need any supplements. However they can be convenient (e.g. protein powder can help you ensure that you get enough total protein in your complete diet if you do not get enough from food).

Mostly supplements do not work as advertised. It is difficult to overstate this.

Well what can a preworkout do then?

A preworkout is aimed to help increase the amount of work you do in the gym. i.e. either lift heavier or more volume (the same weight for more repetitions) the

Yesterday was my first ever powerlifting meet. I competed in the South West Powerlifting Association, a region of the Great British Powerlifting Federation (who seem to be rebranding as British Powerlifting), an IPF affiliate.

I would never have even considered doing this if it wasn't for this sub, so thank you firstly, for the encouragement, training advice and comradery.

I went 9/9, three whites for every single lift which was my goal.

[side note: when watching the video of all my lifts, my wife asked why my mate kept filming the lighting rig...]
