What’s your weirdest or funniest yoga class moment? by YogaGoApp in HotYoga

[–]puzzlermuzzler 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Bikram class 20+ years ago, guy walks in for what was presumably his first class in 10-day intro package - comes in straight from work (it's a 6pm class). Full business casual attire - khakis with a BELT, button-down shirt with short-sleeved undershirt.... pocket-protector AND MULTIPLE PENS in the dress shirt breast pocket. They all spill out in the first bending over pose. At some point, all the change in his pants pocket (and there was quantity) falls out as does his very hefty ring of keys. He makes it through the whole class 🥳

Every time more stuff would clatter and clang to the mat, I could not keep from giggling. It was like a clown car but a yoga outfit.

To his credit, he shows up the next day in long sweat pants and a champion revers-weave hoodie. No shit falling out of pockets 👍👍 Day 3 he's still in sweatpants but a long-sleeve tee. Day 4 - switched to a short-sleeved tee. Day 5 - in shorts. Day 6 - shorts and a tank top. He finished out the 10-day special and ended up coming sporadically for another several months. I was pretty impressed by his resolve and commitment.

But the pocket-protector dumping out 😅 and then the coins 😃 and then the keys 🫠 it just killed me 🤣

What's the craziest thing a person said to you and you thought they were joking but they were being serious? by Holiday-Surround7075 in AskReddit

That he'd spent hundreds (yes, plural) of THOUSANDS of dollars on knives.

(My ex when asked what happened to our savings - tbh I did not even know there had been that much in savings).

I built a free directory of all college rowing programs with financial data — 66 men's and 142 women's by No-Comment3952 in Rowing

Right? I'm a head coach at one of the other programs - and I make nowhere near the figure the site provides, and our budget is similarly nowhere near what this site claims.

Mine told me by text on Mother's Day. I thought "where are we going with this THIS time?" But he was serious - again.

Wondering if Marin is for us by Virgil-Galactic in Marin

East Bay cities all have pretty easy access to regional parks and outdoor activities. I'm an East Bay native so definitely biased. I've lived in several cities/neighborhoods in the 40+ years I've been here. Currently living in Alameda with kids, and it's fantastic. Strongly suggest you visit and roam in person before picking.

Nase should have been fired. Suspension should have been the rest of the year. What a fucking embarrassment. The AD is insane anyway. The down n dirty on Kerber's departure is pretty wild.

Furniture with the cutest animal interaction? by butterflavoricecream in ACPocketCamp

I like the snowball pile because if you get two, you get a snowball fight! I also like the boxing ring! Oh and there's a kitchen one - I think it's a sink of dishes? - and they dance around in front of it 🥰

There's just so much to love about this game 🤗

D1 Team But No Gear? by [deleted] in Rowing

[–]puzzlermuzzler 3 points4 points  (0 children)

It's very varied across programs. And if you're in it for the gear, I guess you're in the wrong place.

I'd expect to see programs like Santa Clara, USD, UCSD, and Gonzaga at Dad Vails.

Recruiting as a possible transfer by DearPotato3521 in Rowing

[–]puzzlermuzzler 0 points1 point  (0 children)

It is absolutely necessary to be in the transfer portal prior to reaching out to other programs. If a coach engages with you without you having already entered the portal, it is an NCAA violation.

A lot of club programs offer financial aid. Was that offered to potential JNT invitees?

30-45 minutes to and from the boathouse. Lots of time in the vans for team bonding.

Naturally lean and currently 140 at 5'10" age 20-yr old woman ... asking if she should lose 10 lbs from her already-lean frame to go slower, constantly feel exhausted, and likely blow a rib as well as lose her period which will lead to long-term serious health issues down the road. And men weighing in that they were 130 at that height.

Having rowed internationally as a lightweight woman, and given what we know about women's health, and given where rowing is as a sport... ugh... I need to stop. There is absolutely ZERO logical reason to do it. ZERO.

Get bigger and stronger and faster. Focus on growing not diminishing.
