exrx.net is such a good resource. Thanks for boosting it.

If I were really focused on hypertrophy, I think I'd use exrx.net more. The site does an amazing job detailing ~41 muscles and exercises to activate those muscles.

For me, I will not be competing in body building competitions (Never say never!). I mostly just want to be able to lift a kid, piece of furniture, etc. without getting hurt. I'm not too particular if I'm working my "gastrocnemius"[1] or "soleus"[2]. I'm okay with working out my "calves" and calling it a day. For better and worse, I've condensed the Long Haul Fitness database to focus on 21 simpler muscle groups that are more approachable for gym mortals.

I'm working on an exercise database and a strength training app.

Two years ago I tore my meniscus and had to go through physical therapy. The experience was eye-opening! Before PT, I thought I was relatively fit because I wasn't overweight, walked a bit, and went to yoga 1-2 times a week. At PT, the therapists basically told me, "You tore your meniscus because you're weak." I had just turned 40. I noticed that I could tweak my back if I sneezed wrong. My mental model of myself hadn't caught up with the stressors of aging that were set upon me. I had never been much into weight lifting before, but I needed to update the way I was taking care of myself.

I didn't know many strength training exercises. Like any good engineer, I started to build a database. It's free and open source:

https://github.com/longhaul-fitness/exercises

I needed a way to track my workouts, so I started to build an app. Over time the app grew beyond tracking my workouts to planning them too.

The app isn't for sale yet; I'm just looking for testers now. Sign up at the first link and try it out for free. Let me know what you think if you want to have a hand shaping the app that's worked for me for two years and counting. I love talking about strength training. Email welcome!

I can't emphasize this site enough. The Python Challenge has a special place in my heart. I was a bored C# .NET developer. In my downtime I would poke at a challenge. I learned Python through this site; picking up the standard library as the challenges progressed. From my experience with this site I was able to land a Python webdev position.

pythonchallenge.com changed the course of my career and I'm grateful for it.

SEEKING WORK - Washington D.C or remote

It's more about the project and less about the technology stack (although it would take a hell of a project to get me back on .NET). I worked as CTO for a small web studio as it went from four people to twelve. I've been running my own freelance shop for nearly two years. I can supplement or lead a tech team.

My workflow with GNU Screen is something like the following:

  * start my computer
  * fire up a terminal
  * run `screen`
  * ssh into another machine
  * run `screen -e^vv` on the remote machine

At this point I can control my local Screen with ctrl+a and my remote Screen with ctrl+v. Is there an equivalent workflow with tmux? Is there an alternative? The podcast hints at "tmux inception" and everyone hints that they avoid tmux within tmux.
