Surely driving the vehicle in a manner that was certain to break the transmission within 4 months caused no other excessive wear in the vehicle, right? Sounds like a terrible idea, really.
Just an anecdote, but I've had multiple dexa scans in the 8-12% range spanning across years of bulking and cutting and I've never had better than what I consider mediocre abs - probably much better than the average adult male in the U.S. but never magazine photo worthy or anything like that. Other people did comment on them at ~8%, though, so my own perspective may be negatively biased.
Anecdotally, as someone who's work kept on trucking (surprisingly - we sell content for display in public spaces where people pass or congregate) - 2020 was a banner year for my family. We saved more than we ever have before and the price of our various assets soared.
We even had a 20% bump in gross revenue while bringing our costs down, and that's after 2019 was flat for us (prior to that we were hitting 30%+ for a handful of years in a row).
> Generally speaking, if your testicles don’t shrink, your production stays the same right?
No, absolutely not.
The size of your testicles is in no way indicative of your testosterone production.
While a shorter period of use generally has a higher chance of your natural production restarting after ceasing exogenous testosterone, your natural production of testosterone shuts down immediately with the introduction of exogenous testosterone.
I’m sensing a very strong bias against testosterone use here.
Testicle shrinkage is unarguable a side effect of exogenous supplementation. How is that not a good marker for your production shutdown? If there’s a good explanation, you’re not being very clear about it at all.
At 6'0", 215 lbs, and 10% body fat (via DEXA scans) I have a BMI of 29.2 - on the high end of "overweight" - almost "obese". I'm a fit, but not especially big, casual weightlifter with a desk job.
That's not the primary use (by dollar volume, it is also helpful to streamline participation in the entire crypto ecosphere regardless of local regulations).
But Tether's for market making. Arbitrators need a way to transfer USD denominated amounts between exchanges to operate.
On top of market making, you'll have smallish (7-8 figure USD) trading shops running strategies across multiple cryptos that just don't have fiat ramps, or they want to tap into volume across exchanges that don't have fiat ramps. If you're one of these customers, you can get in touch with Tether and make redemptions, but you probably don't need to do that anyway because you're working through a prime broker.
This activity doesn't care if the market's bull or bear, so it continues to grow over time in either trend.
