I'll take your word for it, but I'm also not doing that elbow-stand yoga pose either. That's solid work. Keep at it!

Facts 💯💯

Thank you. I don’t have that issue. I keep it at a relatively even temp year round. To get it started, i added a bunch of ice so the freezer didn’t have to do all the work initially.

Hi James. Thx. I'll try that....

Still good to go as long as you seal the cracks with the sealant

I run shirtless so there is less washing.

😂😂🤣🤣

Yes me too, just unplug for extra safety

I just add once per fill. I havent had any issues and I try to be clean when I go in. Its not often I go in directly after a workout. I try to rinse off most of the time to keep the water as clean as possible.

Robert? Is that you, man?! We miss you too. Thank you for the encouragement. Ill run the race and if I have to back off, I will. And, yes, humidity would be a killer with the heat. Hope Texas is treating you well.

Originally it was supposed to help with cleanliness. After further research, it was not helpful for cleanliness or soreness. Generally want warm water to open pores for the soreness anyways. I had read it could help with cleanliness, but that was a negative. Now using hydrogen peroxide mixture and a UV water filter.

Love it Petey Paul. Keep doing you! Jogging along the beach sounds amazing!!

My pleasure, David.Get after it!

Yes!! Thank you!! I had a total brain fart 💨 😂

Thank you!! Im glad that resonated. I have to visualize it too. Talk it out, let the thoughts pass, and keep on moving forward.

Thanks Darren!! I appreciate you watching!

Sorry for the SUPER late reply. Its been about a year and no issues and still going strong!! 💪🏻💪🏻

@@JamesSwiftFit thank you

"Lean Bulk" is just a buzz term, kinda like "body recomposition". It's difficult to gain muscle in a calorie deficit (fat loss phase), because your body is using all your calories to keep you functioning, and it's hard not to gain some body fat if you're in a surplus (muscle building phase). You could eat in a small surplus, like 250 calories more than maintenance (TDEE) to limit body fat accumulation, but the muscle gain will probably be slow because you are providing limited surplus energy to build. At the same time, if you're new to lifting or just starting to clean up nutrition, you can gain muscle mass while losing body fat by eating at your maintenance level (TDEE) or a small deficit (250-500 cal deficit of TDEE), while eating sufficient amounts of protein. One of the benefits of being new to the game. I hope that helps.

@@JamesSwiftFit that was a big help. Thank you so much

Awesome, thank you for your feedback, DR67. Thanks for subscribing. Please share with others that will find it helpful!!

@@JamesSwiftFit - You've very welcome! Funny enough, I just sent this to a friend who's looking to put on more lean mass.

Thanks I appreciate the view.

I’m glad you mentioned that, Bryan. I was just looking into a UV light and a canister pump filter because my set up left a lot to be desired. Ill have to look into the thermostat too. Thank you!

can you use a uv light with hydrogen proxide

Based on some short term google searches, it looks like UV and Hydrogen Peroxide can be used in conjunction and may be more beneficial.

I havent had any issue of rusting. Just be sure you silicone all the open/edged areas. It seems there is a coating on the metal to prevent rust.

@@JamesSwiftFit i put pond armor

That’s an interesting option, Frederick. I’ll have to look into that if I see any rust forming. It’s been a couple months and so far so good. I will keep that in the back pocket though.

​@@JamesSwiftFithow has it done after a year now. I kind of feel like alot of John Richter suggestions are over complicated and trying to lean people into buying things from his affiliated so he he makes money. Like he sells custom liners for absurd prices.
