Hm... 900 $

I think I was using about 150$ per month for the last 1.5 years, lol. House maintenance + electricity bill + internet + some prepay phone + food + gym membership + some sweets.

Run barefooted on track/grass. If you run with a heel strike you'll know immediately and it will hurt, and you're going to run on your toes by default. Plus it feels great for the calves and glutes :D

Have you tried planting a little more sideways and see what happens? Your plant reminds me of SquatDR's, no wonder we talked about him a few posts ago :D

How much does one month of "living" cost for you?

romania has proportional representation, so even if a politician/party doesn't get the most votes, s/he/they could still get into the government.

Sounds like a democracy more than what you have.

I wonder what would happen if you'd try to do this:

So much weirdness... here you get a birth certificate and you use that to identify up until 14 years old, then you get your ID card. Simple.

Also, how can you have just two parties? USA preaches democracy, yet gives you two options for voting. Here there's like 20 parties, lol.

It's similar to this:

You know what I never understood? How you guys don't have a mandatory ID in the USA? Here in Romania, everybody has one at the age of 14. You renew it every 10 years or so.

There it seems people are unidentifiable unless they have medical insurance or a driving license or something.

Here, you just take your ID, to go the voting poll, vote, and go home. That's it. Nothing to fuss about.

Listen, will you try something for me? The next time you do the bounds or jump, try to point your thumbs upwards when the arms are behind you. So basically, internally rotate your arms so much that the thumbs are pointing to the sky. Right now they are pointing to the floor.

See if you feel any difference.

To quote:

1) The origins and insertions of the hamstrings and rectus femoris allow them to extend the hip and knee simultaneously, even though their actions oppose each other.

2) Two joint muscles allow force from single joint muscles to be transmitted to joints they wouldn’t otherwise be able to effect.  For example, the rectus femoris allows the glutes to help extend the knee.

3) You can put these principles to work for you by learning the best way to grind through your sticking point on a squat

4) Because two joint muscles transmit force throughout all of your hip and thigh musculature, squats aren’t truly knee or hip dominant, regardless of how they look or what the external torques at the joints are.
