hey, i asked you on the other thread as well (the imac one) but this was my question
—-
Hey, I have a similar setup (https://kayg.org/uses) where I use a LG C148 as my primary TV and monitor. I do all work on it, however I am unable to use tiling window managers as you recommend because I always struggle to see windows / text that is placed above my eye-level.
For that reason, I prefer to use manual window management solutions instead.
I am curious how do you deal with that problem, one big TV user to another? or do you not have that problem at all?
thanks!

Also many no interest options in India but the prices are higher here, somewhat so for the Macs but significantly higher for the iPhone as it is such a social status thing here in the north.
I'm a YNAB guy too, and I look for a cheaper solution every year when I have to renew it. Last time the only real competitor is Monarch Money and they don't support anything other than usd.
I switched from powerlifting style training to hypertrophy training in the last year, and I have found nothing but more enjoyment out of my training. It isn't to say powerlifting style training is bad, just that my ankle mobility is shit so I can't squat below parallel easily, at least not without an ultra wide stance.
As for hypertrophy programs, I make my own by following Dr. Mike, Dr. Milo and Jeff Nippard on YouTube. Here's the one I am currently going through: https://1drv.ms/x/s!AiiXzauoGwzRgx2Jzb45uzbzdWC8
Sure, but when you are starting out: The olympic bar - 20 kg, maybe your 5RM and if you have never squatted before and hit your 5 RM on your first day of working out, the probability of injury is more than it isn't.
And what you said is also right; from the page:
> 5×5 means you do five sets of five reps with the same weight. Squat 20kg five times, rack the weight, and rest 90 seconds. Then Squat 20kg for five reps again. Repeat until you’ve done five sets of five (5×5). Then move to the next exercise.
There's no way you can keep the weight same across 5 sets unless, according to the example, 20 kg is your 10RM+ weight. That too with 90 seconds rest. Squats and Deadlifts will gas you out completely. It'll take you 90 seconds to just catch up with your breath. And some more for the actual muscle (and synergists) to recover.
Mate, 5x5 isn't even what you would do to make the most gains possible. The amount of pump / soreness / disruption / metabolite sequestration you get with your 5RM is... very very low. It will certainly make you stronger but it won't grow you a lot of muscle.
> But sometimes things aren't working, and you need to adjust.
Absolutely. Dogmatic approaches to training doesn't work very well. Listening to your body and adapting does.
Please don't do 5x5 if you are starting out. Training only the big lifts heavy when you are starting out and have little knowledge about form is a highway to injury. And most of your strength work will not translate to hypertrophy.
You can train a lot of muscles if all you have are free weights + bench. Simply search, "Home workouts Dr. Mike" on YouTube.
Stronglifts 5x5 is simply a terrible program to start. Pick a frequency you can adhere to over the long course of time, be it 2x - 6x a week, and stick to the basics. Don't try to lift ultra heavy on day 1 and btw, you don't need to lift heavy to build muscle.
If you are looking to start, huge shoutout to Dr. Mike from Renaissance Periodisation and Dr. Milo from Wolf Coaching. Both of their YouTube channels are excellent and set you up for the long-term.
