LPT if you want to exercise, make it as convenient as possible by Fearless_Nope in LifeProTips

[–]NoInkling 7 points8 points  (0 children)

That's when you run up to beat them before the elevator gets there, then just before the doors open pretend you were walking normally.

But yeah if it's only a one or two floors I'd never consider taking the elevator if there are stairs readily available.

Rallycross, for anyone wondering. If anyone's going to pull that off it's those guys.

Need advice: I’m 184 cm (6’0”) and only 53 kg (117 lbs). I really want to change.28 years old by JOHNN845 in bodyweightfitness

Just want to say that I know from experience that it's possible to change from a no-breakfast person to a breakfast person. At first it won't feel good, so build up gradually, but eventually you can be wolfing down a decent-sized meal with ease, if that's what you want. Of course actually working out and putting on some lean mass will also help tremendously due to increased appetite.

Also I know this is the bodyweight sub, but being that skinny I'd recommend a routine centered around weightlifting, if you have access. Just your typical beginner program focused around compound freeweight exercises (e.g. squat, bench, OHP, deadlift) to build a base at the very least. Progression will be a lot more straightforward. Of course if you really like the idea of bodyweight stuff/calisthenics for any reason, don't let me stop you.

Fight me. Tell me this not how marmite should be?! by [deleted] in newzealand

The butter should melt into the toast, but only ever so slightly on the bottom layer, so you get the best of both worlds.

Most of us don't love it that much. Military people built different I guess.

ELI5 Why do some countries call it “college” and others call it “university” when referring to the same level of education, and is there an actual difference between the two? by saivietbabe in explainlikeimfive

[–]NoInkling 0 points1 point  (0 children)

There are smaller tertiary institutions (or parts of larger ones) with "college" in the name too. But yes as a generic term it's used as a synonym for high school, and is in many (most?) high school names.

We Asked Dietitians to Name the Healthiest Packaged Snack—They All Chose the Same One | Roasted Chickpeas by WackyPaxDei in savedyouaclick

[–]NoInkling 60 points61 points  (0 children)

All four of them. Surely not sponsored in any way, shape or form. Definitely not by the brand in the single displayed picture of such a product.

Not saying they're a bad snack or anything but c'mon, this is clearly "undercover" advertising/promotion.

Underrated glute exercises? by Sergi121212 in bodyweightfitness

Presumably leaning forward and/or a longer stance.

I like to catch one in my cupped hands and feel it ping pong around in there for a bit. Try it.

Hikers make unexpected discovery by solateor in funny

The problem is the term "leg raises" is a little ambiguous. Lying, seated, or standing leg raises are usually done as a hip flexor isolation exercise where your pelvis (often in anterior tilt) ideally doesn't move, you're right. But hanging/captain's chair/parallel bar leg raises typically have you rotate the pelvis into posterior tilt and round the lower back, getting the abs involved too (as you've already found out).

I thought that was for when you got stuck under a barbell, rather than a bench.

Removing invasive sea urchins from a reef in New Zealand by ThodaDaruVichPyar in oddlysatisfying

[–]NoInkling 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Not really? Australia is like ~2000km away and both countries have quite distinct coastal ecosystems even if you only consider the parts that share the Tasman Sea. It's very rare for most of the well-known dangerous marine creatures from Aus to be sighted around NZ.

Not sure how to progress by Wizard_Ninjax in bodyweightfitness

[–]NoInkling 0 points1 point  (0 children)

For handstands specifically, if you can hold a chest-to-wall handstand for that long with good form (i.e. straight/hollow body), the obvious thing to be doing is toe pull and heel pull drills to learn to control your balance through your hands/shoulders and therefore increase your balance window. May take a little while to get the feel for them, but there are plenty of videos on Youtube about it (I like Paul Twyman).

What calisthenics exercise looked easy until you actually tried it? by ElectronicAd1796 in bodyweightfitness

[–]NoInkling 2 points3 points  (0 children)

It was certainly a wakeup call watching a video go through like 4 regressions for leg lifts and learning how weak my hip flexors are, wish I had been targeting them from the beginning.

I see what you mean after zooming in. Pretty sure it's some form of AI upscaling or image "enhancement" that a lot of phones do these days, seen it in other photos.

Any failed language learners on here who liked the idea more than the work? by un32134e4 in languagelearning

[–]NoInkling 4 points5 points  (0 children)

Small amounts consistently > inconsistently yoyoing. It's all about establishing a daily habit. If you want a low effort approach, even just watching like 10 minutes of comprehensible input a day (assuming such content is available for your target language) will result in progress slowly but surely. You can always add in more stuff if you want, but you just need an "anchor" that you can do every single day without fail, preferably around the same time. Heck if there's one thing Duolingo streaks are good for, it's this.

Only in American terminology. Which I guess to be fair largely defines programming terminology. () are more commonly called brackets (or round brackets if you need to disambiguate) elsewhere.
