There is a Utah High School player that BYU is really trying hard to flip right now.

Is it her. brother? The other Olmstead who coaches the men's team.

Archaea

Yes, that’s her brother

And his name is Shawn.

Putting in a plug for the cabin we stayed up by Sundance.

4:31pm

Beautiful place. What did you pay per night?

bluecheese

4:39pm

I already sent this to my wife. We were just talking about doing this.

2FarGone

Can anyone recommend a good inflatable hot tub?

bluecheese

4:28pm

We have a Coleman we take to our cabin and to Lake Powell. It has lasted 5 years

JAGA97

4:31pm

I think that an inflatable would be a good way to "test the waters".

TheSpiker

4:45pm

You have had inflatable or permanent tubs?

For those of you that have had success selling your home without an agent…

We sold one of our homes to our youngest daughter without an agent.

Shihan

Not an answer you were looking for, but reminded me of this funny video

Ojiisan

Zillow. Most people look for homes there before ever talking to an agent.

JAGA97

I know some who sold theirs FSBO on Zillow.

I’m not a fan of the % of the home sale for the buyers agent. Any opinions

This was almost 7 yrs ago so before the price boom. Not that much but still better than other offers. Not crazy abt it.

Did he grow up a Jazz fan? He grew up in Washington didn’t he?

Provo

Zombre

4:12pm

Wiki says he was raised in Eugene, Oregon where he dad was a professor

ordinary tri guy

4:18pm

His dad taught at BYU for a long time

4:26pm

So when did he end up in provo? The wiki just makes it seem like college.

ordinary tri guy

4:36pm

He went to high school in provo

Zombre

4:45pm

Oh I thought he was a Jazz fan. I guess maybe that ruins my narrative.

Manti

4:12pm

He did grow up a jazz fan. Born in the Northwest

4:14pm

He’s like 3 months older than me or something and I’m like way behind him in

4:17pm

Does he own at least 2 more professional sports franchises than you do?

Ojiisan

4:29pm

Yes

4:37pm

Probably 4 more.

I only own a fantasy team

Aren't half the guys on Cougarboard billionaires?

bluecheese

There are a lot of billionaires?

TNT

4:50pm

Keeping with the theme - let’s say someone has not been to a gym in 10+ years

4:07pm

What’s the goal? That will always need the question that drives the answer

cougaman

4:07pm

A very easy program is Stronglifts 5x5 + some cardio

slappy

4:11pm

Best thing first is fix your diet.

ordinary tri guy

4:13pm

This is true. One cannot out-exercise a bad diet.

4:18pm

Other than too much Diet Coke, diet is controllable. First 25 lbs have come off

4:18pm

I would add low pace cardio (zone 2 HR) at an incline for 3miles 2-3x a week.

ordinary tri guy

4:24pm

Better morbidity and mortality data with exercise over any specific diet

Here you go....analysis of hundreds of studies

runnincoug

4:29pm

It depends on what "overtake" means. If you want to be not-fat, eat less.

Belboz

4:32pm

Agree. Diet trumps all in weight gain/loss.

cougfanz

4:34pm

My guess is most Americans would trade a long life for weight loss.

4:36pm

A couple of years ago, I started lifting weights

Belboz

4:38pm

For many years, I've been a shockingly fit but fairly fat guy

Digital Gangsta

4:35pm

I guess it all comes down to how a person defines fit.

ordinary tri guy

4:46pm

this might be why your tris are so ordinary

Digital Gangsta

4:35pm

The three best upper body lifts are bench, lat pulls, and shoulder press.

4:17pm

start with walking and extremely light weights on any lifts

Digital Gangsta

4:19pm

I’ve been walking approx 40 mins per night, 5 nights per week

4:23pm

I’d follow this guy around:🙂

Brisco

4:24pm

yes, I'm sure you would, but we're talking about fitness routines now

Digital Gangsta

4:27pm

Depends on what you want to do? Build muscle? Build endurance? Lose weight? Just be more active?

4:28pm

More active, build up some strength and endurance

4:30pm

Start slow. Injury will set you back. You're older now and your body won't recover as quickly as you remember.

HarlemCoug

4:31pm

My suggestions:

Archaea

4:33pm

this is really terrible fitness advice. You're recommending primarily isolation

Digital Gangsta

4:45pm

For a beginner? If you want snatches, clean and jerks, deadlifts
