  • I'm a 23 year old, recent graduate working at a high growth startup! Though I work remotely full time out of Houston, I visit the San Francisco office every 2-3 months. Today, I walk you through a day in my life in the office. You'll see my usual day-to-day routine working in person, from coding and debugging sessions to casual hangouts and lunches with coworkers. And you'll get to see the beautiful city of San Francisco!
    Follow along for insights into the tech industry, all things startup, and what to expect as a recent-grad remote software engineer.

    I'm a 44 year old bodybuilder with some injuries. I noticed your deltoid raises and wanted to help you avoid injury. The range you want to stay in is the range you can comfortably slowly raise a light weight to in slow motion (you are going too high). Please don't add leg/back or trap shrug to bring it higher. It is also safer for your forearm joints to use a heavy weight and have the elbows bent.
    I personally will advise you stick to pullups/rows and pushups for all deltoid work.
    I know you probably have seen the excercise done by others, but it is a bad practice that needs to be corrected for all future generations. Good luck!
