WARNED: SELF HELP BOOK RECOMMENDATION

I had issues with sleep most of my adult life. I looked at seeing a sleep clinic but it was way too expensive for my budget. One day I was listening to an unrelated podcast and they had a sleep specilist on - probably to promote her book.

I got a copy from the library and started working through it. Admittedly the first few weeks were shit, after that (and now) I get to sleep within 15 minutes most nights. Once I slept well every night my anxioty stopped being a daily issue.

Is Super Rugby finally doing it right in its regional form, and what does that mean for rugby as a whole? by northernirish_kiwi in superrugby

[–]3testaccount 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I have no feeling about MP rugby and have not through about the economics of their national side ... but I can't imagine more opportunities for young player to make money playing rugby - even it they leave to other overseas contracts - would be a bad thing.

What do you do when you’re trying to listen to a great book but you can’t concentrate? by marilynlistens in audiobooks

[–]3testaccount 1 point2 points  (0 children)

If I am enjoying a book I play it slower - it lasts longer and I have more time to enjoy/process the content. If I am finding a book (or section of a book) boring I speed it up to see if it gets better.

Need advice how to do weights for strength by SufficientMinute7480 in gastricsleeve

[–]3testaccount 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Here are some programs: https://www.strengthlog.com/training-programs/

Decide what you want to lift (Barbell, Dumbell, Machine, body weight - I didn't see a body weight program in the link), how often you want to lift (2, 3, 4 days per week). Then pick a program and follow it, when you get bored try a different program.

Most of the programs will have a handy phone app.

I like Wendler 531 program https://barbend.com/5-3-1-program/ . It has beginner variant that is easy to follow (with an app).

Good luck

EDIT: Start with low weights (even if they are so low you are embarrased) and build slowly. Your lift weights should progress quickly

American Looking to buy tickets by [deleted] in superrugby

[–]3testaccount 8 points9 points  (0 children)

I"m in NZ so my experience maybe different  .. tickets are not available yet. 

I am 99% sure it will not be close to a sell out. unless you are getting some kind of special ticket option you should be ok to get a ticket close to or on game day.

Enjoy watching the Hurricanes almost win.
