@Pizzamorg When you are sore you need proteins and rest. When recovered you can get sore again by doing some more exercise and within a year hike like 40 miles.

Just to add to that...keep the protein intake to around 40 grams per meal as that's how much your body can process in one go so anything else just gets converted to fat, stretches are good on rest days to help recovery by keeping your circulation going as well as bananas for potassium, avoiding coffee (try tea instead as there's actually more caffeine in it) and drink water. Keep in mind if you're starting from inactive it takes around 3 months for your body to adapt/not feel sore with that specifc level of exercise.

To be honest rather than being a cardio bunny I'd suggest trying to include HIT or weights as well if you want to keep in shape long term, the more muscle you have the more calories it consumes rather than just having to clock up hours and hours to get rid of the fat.

Since I can’t go to the gym anymore, I do all my exercise at home but my options at home are very limited. I have a few kettle bells and dumbbells I do weights with, but they aren’t very heavy and can’t afford to keep buying new ones as I go along, so I only do weights occasionally now. (It used to be a core of my exercise when I was in the gym all the time but that just isn’t practical now. Plus when you’re doing it alone so no one can check your form your injury risk goes up by a lot).

Other than that, I alternate every other day (give or take) in either going for a long walk or going for a run (either outside or the treadmill), mixing in press ups as either a warm up or cool down. I wanted to slot Ring Fit in there to give me some variation and fun into my workout, since it’s just not the same when you’re home alone. This seems to suggest it will do that for me.

I also tend to not focus on weight, I think it takes losing a lot of weight to really notice you’ve lost weight but when you start getting fitter, you can notice that pretty much straight away. So I focus on the fitness and the weight will come.

Did my second Ring Fit session same length, but turned the difficulty down and tried not to do as many squats this time around! I know you should take breaks, but the sessions aren’t long and I am just trying to calibrate it for me. Still seemed a little difficult even with them lowering it, so I might try calibrating it down lower again next time and see how I get on. I know this sounds like complaining but I love how much this kicks my ass.

Finally. We saw the rating ages ago. Guess Bandai Namco got sick of the director pestering them to port it. Their original objection was sales forecast.

Like... come on. It's a niche JRPG. It won't do that well, but it'll at least match your PS sales.

My guy just got back to me about the slipcovers for Monster Hunter Rise and Shin Megami Tensei V. He asked if this design was OK. I told him heck yes.

Looks like the NSO Expansion Pack dripfeed is even more of a dripfeed than with NES or SNES for base NSO.

Paper Mario is coming to NSO Expansion Pack on December 10th.

@JaxonH Nice. I'm using those exact pieces of art for my current desktop/laptop wallpapers.

I mean, Paper Mario is the easiest excuse to waste 20 hours, which would make it more time spent than nearly anyone gets from your average NSO update.

Tbh, I thought they were gonna wait until next year for any new game.

Nice, might make this the Paper Mario game I play next year.

I deeply enjoyed TTYD and TOK, but really didn't care for SS or SPM. We'll see where this one lands.

@Ralizah I haven't played TTYD, Super, or color splash, but the original is up there with TOK. I quite liked sticker star but not as much as the original.

@Ralizah TTYD took everything about this game and improved on it. Though it’s not like it needed many improvements, it’s still great game with good characters and a fun story.

Meanwhile, i saw Paper Mario TTYD was available on my local Online Shop and it tagged with insane price (3,500,000 IDR) 😭

@Pizzamorg
If you can catch Legendaries easily, it will defeat the purpose of being Legendary Pokemon.
Being a Legendary Pokemon = very hard to catch Pokemon, they are the Boss. Only Master Ball can catch them by 100% chance.

@Pizzamorg 30+ ultra balls isn't that unusual for legendaries.

Just to check - are you making use of status ailments to raise for catch rate (and help prevent it from wiping out your team)?

Also I recommend timer balls after the first 20 turns or so.

At least 2'8".

Pizzamorg

Just after I posted that, I caught it. Swapped in my Boltund who carried me through early game and used paralysis to seal the victory, still required 20+ ultra balls. No other Leggo has given me so much trouble.

@Pizzamorg Your really loving the game aren't you? what do you score it as? (If your talking about Sword and shield of course) I score it a good 9/10, as I poured in a lot of hours, and never got the DLC.

Yeah Shield is now my number one most played Switch game, overtaking Monster Hunter Rise. I’d probably score the core game an 8 out of 10, the first DLC a 6 out of 10 and the third DLC so far is probably a 7 out of 10, I’d probably rank it higher, but this chase around for the Leggo birds is a real PITA, leaving me sour.
