Any chance I can get a raincheck on the deal until the Leaf ' s St . Pat ' s jerseys come out ? I am being sarcastic , but if you wanted to . <| sep |> this may be true , but are these changes permanent ? a paper from Harvard showed that cognition and intelligence is not effected , that after 28 days of sobriety a heavy user will function like those who are not users . it doesn ' t address the dopamine levels , but I would bet the changes are not permanent . unaffectedbymarijuanause <| sep |> I ' m really benefiting from incorporating RPE into my training . I benched at 5 . 30 am this morning before work and I ' ve been feeling pretty fatigued this week . Warm ups weren ' t feeling fantastic and so I adjusted my goal weight down by 7 . 5 kg for my 8 x 3 bench . A year ago I would have pushed through , probably missed reps and had a super shitty workout , if not injuring myself . Today I was actually aware of my body , still got high quality reps in , didn ' t get injured and after a good nights sleep or two I ' ll be back to 100 % Progress !
