And focus on form. It's easy to bounce a little at the bottom of pulls or chins rather than starting from a dead hang.
Scapular pull ups also help to get the first bit of movement and focus on lats.
And keep some tension in your core while doing both. Slightly pointed toes helps me keep my legs straight and core working. -

It's not a single free withdrawal, it's as many as you need up to £200 over a 30 day rolling window
https://monzo.com/blog/2018/01/04/atm-fees-january/
Over £200 there's a 3% feeWith Revolut it's the same £200 within a 30 day period, then it's 2%
So Revolut is cheaper after you've taken out £200
https://www.revolut.com/us/help/exploring-revolut/spending-and-sending-money/using-my-card/will-i-be-charged-for-cash-withdrawalsBoth of those are for withdrawing cash only. Using the card in shops etc is free with Monzo and Revolut (and my Nationwide credit card, and probably loads of others)
-
The novelty has worn off a bit for me, and they don't have Apple pay yet (may be a day away, may be a year - Apple are apparently arsey with the NDAs so they can't discuss how close they are to it) so I'm using another card more often than not.
But if I'm abroad then I use it. Instant GBP estimates and no charges are nice. -
The current account does all the prepaid did. Monzo lose money on the prepaid ones and I suspect don't on the current accounts. So if they're nagging that'll be why.
If you need to hold money in more than one currency then get Revolut. Otherwise this is just a bank account with a nice app. I'm not sure why aggi has kept with them since it sounds like he doesn't see the point or like the service. -

If you get the R8000 11-34 cassette then you can use either road or MTB hubs which opens up the choice a bit. and a normal mid cage 5800 derailleur worked for me.
The 11-34 I think is the only one that'll work with both road and mtb hubs (slightly larger spacer I think needed for road but, but that was included iirc)

Do you actually need Di2 levers for electronic shifting, or could you use a climbing shifter (e.g. SW-R600)?

Currently have a spare frame with 5700 shifters and only the rear derailleur cabled up. No brakes on the frame.
Thinking of putting an 11sp cassette onto the turbo so that I don't have to faff if swapping bikes.
Could I get an 11sp Di2 rear derailleur and a climbing shifter button on the bars, and just control shifting completely with the button, leaving the 5700 levers there without any cables connected at all.
(saw a comment on road.cc that implies it might be doable
http://road.cc/content/forum/213603-di2-climbing-shifter-and-r785-hydraulic-leversThe SW-R600 climbing shifter is a self-contained unit with an E-Tube connection and doesn't need to be connected via a lever. the Sprint buttons are just extensions of the main lever and won't work connected directly. So you can connect the SW-R600 anywhere there's a spare hole. A junction box should work okay; the 5-port control box is a more elegant solution but also quite a lot more expensive.

Possibly teaching you to suck eggs, but anyway...
Having Excel email 600 people might well be the only way to solve this particular problem, but in general having apps do what they're not designed for is poor practice.
As you've recently posted a link to a job spec I guess you'll soon get to interviewing for them and you'll give examples of problems solved and the approaches you've taken. You'll need to justify why you've taken one route over another (e.g. mailchimp, some other more robust solution)
An Excel spreadsheet emailing 600 people is cowboy coding and a bit of a nightmare for anyone apart from the person that wrote it to work with (much as it makes sense to you, pity the person that you hand over this spreadsheet to when you leave).
So really just saying be aware of what criticisms there are of the approach you're taking and be prepared to justify them if you need to.
(I say this having worked at a consultancy that made very intricate and impressive looking Excel/VBA monstrosities to produce pretty documents and charts. Pretty as they were, there's no way I'd ever recommend the consultancy to anyone because it was such an awful approach to a problem)

Well done @GwGs, and good to see you at the start and the end. I childishly sprinted off to pip a mate by half a second on the line.
Really good day, my sister and her partner both getting PBs and about 30 clubmates turning out. Then an afternoon in the pub.1.36 for me, 7 minutes shy of a PB but I'm pretty happy with given the focus is long slow stuff for IM and today was intended as a training run.

It's as much learning the movement as it is strength. It's a different movement to a pull up. More explosive. Not quite kipping but it's not just straight up either, you're going up a little bit away from the bar so that you can then go over the top of it and push. And a different grip, further over the top of the bar so that you're not having to adjust half way up to turn the pull into a push.
Realise that's not really very descriptive and it was a bit of a rhetorical question anyway
