![]() ![]() Don’t move until the sore spot relaxes! It’s that simple. Hold the position until the GTO fires (15-30 seconds) and the sore spot relaxes by at least 70%. This soreness represents the tension created both by the stretch and the resultant defensive contraction. Move along the contour of the muscle until you find a sore spot. You apply pressure to the affected area using your body-weight against the roller, ball, etc. While the science behind SMR may be a bit intense for the casual reader, the technique is really quite simple. The muscle will be softer and more flexible at resting tension and less prone to overuse. Over time, the threshold for engaging the muscles spindles (the amount of tension required to make them fire) can be raised back to a normal level. Each time the GTO fires, in has an inhibitory effect on the spindles. With SMR, you stimulated the spindles to fire, you hold the position until the golgi tendon organs make the muscle relax, then you move on. With all of this in mind, let’s go back to SMR. These muscles, or portions of muscles are often tight, hard, and sore to press on. That is to say, it takes very little tension to make the muscle contract in defense. Chronically tight muscles often have an extremely low threshold for stimulating the spindles. Flexibility issues are frequently, in part, due to improper thresholds at which these structures send their messages to the brain. If you sustain that tension for a while, or the combined tension of the stretch and contraction is too great, the golgi tendon organ sends its message to the brain, instructing it to make the muscle relax. When a muscle is stretched too far or too fast, the muscle spindle sends a message to the brain telling it to make the muscle contract to avoid overstretching or tearing. Each detects the same things, but with the respective messages they send in response, the brain does two very different things. There are two primary types of intrafusal fibers pertaining to muscles: muscle spindles and golgi tendon organs (GTO). This information is also used for protection of the very muscles these fibers inhabit. This feedback allows the brain to determine the position of your limbs in 3-dimensional space. The brain uses this information for multiple purposes. They communicate with the brain… relaying messages pertaining to muscle length, tension, and the rate of change of both. Intrinsic muscle fibers serve a different purpose. Extrinsic muscle fibers are what we traditionally think of as muscle fibers… they contract, relax and effect movement. ![]() ![]() There are two primary types of skeletal muscle tissue: extrinsic and intrinsic. To understand how SMR works, one needs to understand some basic muscle physiology. SMR accomplishes a number of things… it softens tight, painful tissues, inhibits over-active muscles, reduces your tissues’ resistance to movement, re-models deranged connective tissue, improves both blood and lymph circulation, and even makes other types of stretching more effective. The stretches are performed using SMR implements such as foam rollers and tennis balls. Self-myofascial release (SMR) is roughly tantamount to giving one’s self a deep-tissue massage, only no therapist is required and you don’t pay by the hour. However, there is one type of stretching appropriate to nearly all bodies, at all levels of function and all levels of fitness… self-myofascial release. All types of stretching exist on a continuum… you progress from one to another as your tissues and your fitness regimen progress. Each has their uses in an integrated, progressive flexibility regimen. There are many, including some types you may have heard of: static, active, dynamic, active-isolated, passive, proprioceptive neuromuscular facilitation (PNF), ballistic and others. ![]()

![]() ![]() There is this constant feeling that something new is just around the corner as its progression and upgrade system speed is spot on, but unfortunately nothing new comes and you are left with a sense of familiarity throughout. ![]() But that is all Surviving the Aftermath is, as it doesn’t provide anything new to the genre, nor to the post-apocalyptic setting it chooses to adopt. It replicates the feelings felt during Surviving Mars extremely well in that sense, and you can easily see why these games are brought under the same ‘Surviving’ banner.Īll this adds up to an enjoyable sim builder title. One wrong decision or surprise element could spell disaster. It will throw a lot at you to reduce your headcount and for the majority of the game you feel like your head is barely above the surface. Surviving the Aftermath isn’t concerned with you having the highest population count, the clue is in the title. As best as you prepare for these events, casualties are expected. For example, a winter storm will require burners and firewood to keep residents alive, or a nuclear fallout will up the cases of radiation sickness. Surviving the Aftermath features a customisable difficulty percentage, and you can tailor the difficulty to how you see fit, from changing the frequency of these Catastrophes, to the amount of resources available to scavenge.Ĭatastrophes are post-apocalyptic weather events that will test your current camp setup. Others that also join at the same time as them will waltz through to your camp regardless too.Īs well as this, there are Catastrophes to contend with. Regardless of this being a bug or design flaw, it is frustrating to have to gun down new residents immediately after granting them access. New survivors entering your camp are also subject to this happiness rating, and some will even turn hostile instantaneously once you have granted them access. Those that aren’t happy may turn hostile if things don’t improve. It is hugely important in keeping the happiness of residents as high as possible. There aren’t all that many different problems to solve however, and even after a short time you will be repeating them. Pick the most amicable answer and the overall happiness of your camp is raised slightly. These tend to lean into making some difficult decisions, with topics present such as depriving the children a bit of fun or how to deal with other survivors that come knocking. Later on, these Specialists can help set up new outposts in the wilderness for a variety of reasons to help make survival a little bit more bearable.Īt times you will also be served up a short dilemma to resolve. Here, they can find additional resources, defeat hostiles and further explore the world outside your encampment. ![]() They do not serve much purpose until you rebuild your community’s front gate, but after that your Specialists can traverse the world map. Survivors are your standard units the ones that build, repair, hunt and forage. ![]() You are better off figuring things out for yourself during your first couple of hours. They either don’t fully explain themselves in terms of what you need to do or miss crucial information out altogether.

First input delay6/6/2023 ![]() ![]() The improvements in TBT very often correlate with improvements in FID, so it is a good idea to use these lab tools to test any improvements and fixes. Here is the waterfall generated by WebPageTest for my website. These buckets describe the experience of the user as good, needs improvement, or poor. Google PageSpeed Insights categorizes field data into 3 separate buckets. But first, let’s take a look at what different FID times mean. Like most other metrics, Google offers clear guidelines regarding what a good FID score is and what needs improvement. This makes First Input Delay one of the most important Core Web Vitals metrics calculated to determine a website’s interactivity speed and responsiveness. The FID data cannot be reproduced (accurately) in a controlled lab setting, since it’s based on real-world interactions.The data that’s collected via FID can vary dramatically, depending on various factors, such as the network conditions and capabilities of a device.FID is a field metric, mainly because it gauges the response time of a website and how quickly the browser is actually able to load elements on the page after the user has interacted with it.There are a few characteristics of that FID that you should know about: The metric can also be used to measure the same data where a custom, JavaScript-powered control or button is used (such as on a smartphone). The time it takes the browser to respond to these interactions and for the website to react to the interaction, is calculated as FID. The interaction that FID measures could be: Ideally, to provide a good user experience, FID should be equal to or less than 100 ms. ![]() Check my guide to Core Web Vitals.įirst Input Delay measures the interactivity of a website. Core Web Vitals metrics are currently made up of the three metrics, such as Largest Contentful Paint (LCP), First Input Delay (FID), and Cumulative Layout Shift (CLS).So before we dig deep into FID, here is a quick reminder for you: However, now in 2021, it has become even more important than ever to have a website that provides an excellent user experience.įortunately, there are several tools and tips that Google offers to fix Core Web Vitals and optimize a website for a better user experience. With the introduction of Core Web Vitals, Google is taking the issues with web experience even more seriously (not that it didn’t do so before). Is it because of the poor First Input Delay metric? Most likely! What went wrong? It could be that the site you were trying to access wasn’t as responsive as it should be. You clicked on a website’s link or tapped a button.
