  • I understand not many of you give a slight interest for exercise but I’m going to post this anyway.

    Recently I’ve decided to get back into exercising as much as I can mainly aiming for 3 times a week.

    Today I decided to take an approach to the old Mr Olympia training method, ‘the pump’.

    The pump is essentially just trying to get the most amount of blood to the muscles as possible so you aim for high heavy sets with a few reps and as little rest as possible, I thought I’d give it a try and I came up with this for today:

    Squats

    30 reps squats

    30 seconds rest

    repeat 5 time (5 sets)

    25 reps squats

    25 seconds rest

    5 sets

    Then end with as many squats as you can until failure, aim for something high in the hundred range, I got to 200 squats with rests throughout, around 6 rests.

    Biceps

    30 reps bicep curls 10lbs (maybe 20lbs, not sure) dumbbells (9kg, maybe 4.5kg)

    Swap arm 30 reps 10lbs dumbbells

    5 sets

    Reduce to 25 reps and 25 seconds rest, 5 sets, do hammer curl.

    Shoulders

    15 reps 4.5kg dumbbells front raise (nazi salute with dumbbell basically)

    Swap arms, keep going until 5 sets, then side raises same weights and do 5 reps switch arms until you don’t or can’t do anymore.

    This isn’t a perfect plan because if you really want blood going to a muscle like arms you shouldn’t work out any other part beside arm between arm workouts, keep to forearms, biceps, triceps, shoulders rather than biceps, quads, triceps abs, shoulders.

    P.S: the squats I do is where you don’t fully stand up when coming up, you slightly bend your knees so you don’t get that little rest, you then go down the normal distance which is at a 90 degree angle roughly and you keep your arms at your side so you avoid the momentum of swinging your arms to reduce the strain, aim to keep your feet flat and steady on the ground and go fairly quickly whilst doing these.

    Wow what a waste of time this post was.

    • The pump is essentially just trying to get the most amount of blood to the muscles as possible so you aim for high heavy sets with a few reps and as little rest as possible

      i think you had that backwards?
      higher reps at a lighter weight are gonna allow that real burning feeling causing the swoleness
      your list of reps-per-set show that as well (they’re high reps, not low)

      anyway

      nice, reminds me of German Volume Training which i think is basically the same approach

      low rest time, 10 sets, lots of volume, you know – typical german stuff

  • Wow, each day I check my downloads it increases, every other day from me checking I’ve gained around 1,000 to 3,000 downloads.

    The frequent submissions has proven fruitful.

    I do want to keep to the whole ‘X how many days of submitting stickfigures’ but now is a bad time. Once summer holidays are here maybe I’ll try then.

    Also damn 62 consistent days already, time really flies huh.

  • Lemon’s office floor plan, it’s not done yet but this is what we’re dealing with so far.

    I need to add:
    – Desk
    – Fireplace
    – Plants

    They’ll be more besides the floor plan, it’s more for the big immovable stuff.

    • Add a coffee on the desk, then make your oc position his legs on the table whilst relaxing on a chair. Aswell as sipping the coffee.

      • Replying to: ColloAdd a coffee on the desk, then make your oc position his leg

        For sure, I intend on making a visual scene / setting once SNCA is out where lemon’s looking out his giant windows at SN whilst sipping coffee, the different songs that I’ll create will play.

        May include some ambience as well, rain etc.

        Should be nice.

    Just need confirmation from the creator to potentially okay me using it.

    Specifically at around 0:20 I’d use.

  • I’ve decided to update my old ‘How to conserve nodes tutorial’ video, it’s pretty lacklustre and with the addition of curved nodes and what I’ve learnt since then I thought it would be good to re-visit it.

    Just finished writing the rough notes for the video along with each method.

    • I plan to reduce the intro part because no young teenager (most SN users age range out there) will listen to that stuff plus it’s kind of just rambling on.

      The method though will probably stay the same by estimate.

      We’ve got 5 methods:

      1. Covering space (using the right shapes for the right areas to fill)

      2. Usage of ‘Sharp’ and ‘Curved’ shapes (Triangles, segments etc and ellipses, circles for there respective areas to be filled)

      3. Polyfill usage (Well, using polyfills correctly lol, not much more to it, I’m sure you understand)

      4. Colour co-ordination (Using colours to hide any weird shapes and fill in space without creating new nodes of different or the same colour to cover an area, hopefully that made sense, it will in the video don’t worry)

      5. Layering (Hard to explain, essentially just move X node behind Y node to make it look good)

          Short and sweet tends to be the way about it.

          I intend to keep it as short as I can but not to the point where one would consider it a ‘short’ or ‘shorts’.

  • Drawing progress…

    Need to add the skin layers essentially, this way it isn’t just all shredded outline muscles, then I need to add shading, then the tattoo.

    Once that’s done I’ll have Lemon’s back drawn.
