Dull Men's Club
An unofficial chapter of the popular Dull Men's Club.
1. Relevant commentary on your own dull life. Posts should be about your own dull, lived experience. This is our most important rule. Direct questions, random thoughts, comment baiting, advice seeking, many uses of "discuss" rarely comply with this rule.
2. Original, Fresh, Meaningful Content.
3. Avoid repetitive topics.
4. This is not a search engine or advice forum.
Use a search engine, a tradesperson, Reddit, friends, a specialist Facebook group, apps, Wikipedia, an AI chat, a reverse image search etc. to answer simple questions, identify objects or get advice. We accept very few questions, and they must be over topics much more difficult than what is easily discoverable with a search. Also see rule 1, “comment baiting”.
5. Keep it dull. If it puts us to sleep, it’s on the right track. Examples of likely not dull: jokes, gross stuff (including toes), politics, religion, royalty, illness or injury, killing things for fun, or promotional content. Feel free to post these elsewhere.
6. Not hate speech, sexism, or bullying No sexism, hate speech, degrading or excessively foul language, or other harmful language. No othering or dehumanizing of anyone or negativity towards any gender identity.
7. Proofread before posting. Use good grammar and punctuation. Avoid useless phrases. Some examples: - starting a post with "So" - starting a post with pointless phrases, like "I hope this is allowed" or “this is my first post” Only share good quality, cropped images. Do not share screenshots of images; share the original image.
8. All polls must have an "Africa, by Toto" option. Why? Because we hear the drums echoing tonight.

They are half covered by our insurance because sometimes they can help. The electro stimulation of muscles and what not for sports injuries.
I had some neck pain. They ask questions ( that sometimes doctors gloss over because they sometimes treat symptoms not the person). So chiro asks how I got here today (motorcycle), and what's my exercise regime like (powerlifting). So while a doctor might prescribe pain meds and mri of neck, chiro suggests to me could be weight of motorcycle helmet during gear shifts, but also asked specifics about weight lifting sets and order. Then made a recommendation to change the order. They suggested that doing certain heavy lifts first fatigued all muscle groups involved, meaning smaller exercise after was struggling to work effectively with proper form. They suggested moving the small target exercise first till fatigue, then the larger exercise. Also did the muscle elctro impulse stuff.
Neck pain did go away. Not sure which thing solved it though.
