    anyone pay attention to their resting heart rate?

    Agree generally, and I loved the podcast, but you also have to be careful of drawing general conclusions for outliers. Looking at Ryan Shay and concluding that marathons aren’t healthy is a bit like looking at Arnold Schwarzenegger and concluding that lifting weights makes you too bulky. A...

    Freezing heart

    Beware the frozen heart…. (Couldn’t resist, I have a 9-year-old girl and spent waaaay too much time watching this movie…)

    anyone pay attention to their resting heart rate?

    Sounds like folks' experience is similar. My RHR tends to be in the 40s; when I was boxing in college, I had a physical and I think it was 43 or 44. Every once in awhile I'll do a self test using a watch before getting out of bed; mine will fluctuate from 36 to 50ish depending on the training...

    Rab electron pro vs neutrino pro

    I like the fit. It’s pretty athletic fitting—enough room for layers but not baggy. European for may be a good description. I’m a solid medium in nearly all things, and medium in the electron pro fits really well on me.

    Rab electron pro vs neutrino pro

    I have the electron pro. It’s great. Zero complaints. Super warm, durable. Cut is great—sleeves hit right, goes down behind the back, hood is comfy. Like wearing a 0 degree sleeping bag; I have to unzip if it’s warmer than 20. Blocks wind well, also. Looks like the neutrino pro has...

    Beyond Clothing USA Line

    I just received an order from beyond clothing, here’s my first impressions. Todra ss crew - Fit is wonky; too tight in the chest, verging on too tight on the arms, tight around neck. Constricted movement in the upper body due to tightness. Length is good; a bit longish on the body but that is...

    Best, reasonable priced rain gear

    I do, and I like it a lot. Last year, I had a week of elk hunting with on-and-off showers, turning to hail/snow mix, nearly all week. It held up well and did its job quite nicely. Handles occasional showers really well. I've also worn it snowboarding with precip; that's not its best use case but...

    Alternate Solutions For A Beat Up Hip

    I'd try a physical therapist or your veterinary friend! Hips can get displaced. I can get a slight displacement, which I fix by doing a move shown by a pt. First, place foam roller sideways with left leg (proper hip) on top and right leg (displaced hip) below. Try to break the foam roller in...

    Pant for Business Casual

    Expensive but nice; I have 2 pairs of these, one set of jeans, and that’s about it for the office casual. I do have to wear actual slacks/suits on occasion but these do pretty much everything short of that. https://arcteryx.com/us/en/shop/mens/levon-pant

    Seeking Best Idaho Fish and Game Attorney

    Yup. I’m a lawyer that has handled, and would handle in the future, at a reduced rate someone who had a real legal issue with IDFG. Not this one. The time to retain a lawyer for an effective defense or negotiation has long passed. And yes, some of our judges are forty or younger. If it’s the...

    Pre-hunt scale back?

    Ha! @V2Pnutrition and I responded at the same time…and looks to be pretty consistent. Trust him, not me!

    Pre-hunt scale back?

    Yes - I consider it a "taper." As I understand it, the recommendations for a taper are: scale back on the duration of the workouts, not necessarily the intensity; step down 2 weeks before to 50-75% of load and 25-%50 of load 1 week before; extra emphasis on nutrition, sleep, mobility, etc. This...

    Ascent + lightweight baselayer or heavier pant

    I have medium, my waist size is 32-33.

    Ascent + lightweight baselayer or heavier pant

    No, the zippers are not noticeable at all. Super low profile and there’s a backer so the metal doesn’t touch your leg at all.

    Ascent + lightweight baselayer or heavier pant

    Kuiu peleton 97 zip-offs. Your mind will be blown! Edit: I just checked, and they're on sale for $59.99. Definitely worth a try at that price. https://www.kuiu.com/products/peloton-97-fleece-zip-off-bottom-gunmetal?variant=40340236533918

    Cheaper Fleece pants with pockets than Kuiu Strongfleece?

    I bet you could go to Target or Dicks sporting goods or old navy and find a perfectly suitable pair.
