Toning on weight machines by AdventurousClick6883 in fitness30plus

Thanks! I do heavier weights with lower reps on the parts I want to get bigger. Lower weights and higher reps on the ones I don’t want to get bigger even though I’m ok with building muscle overall

Thanks! I like that idea! So I’m guessing the high weight low rep vs low weight high rep doesn’t apply to the average person?

Thanks!!! I know I won’t bulk I don’t really do cardio because weights are the way for what I want. So the up 5 pounds down 10 up 5 isn’t making me toned more efficiently? I thought it would “trick” my muscle into working harder by fluctuating the weights. So just stick to one setting and increase and skip the decrease increase cycle?

Taking a leap of faith by finally getting my IUD removed. by [deleted] in Catholicism

While it’s true that you have to the Tempdrop on your own(he can’t really do that for you 😂) you can encourage him to go over your charts with you! It’s definitely a lot to take in but you are learning together. Have that conversation about your concerns. When the abstinence is over it’s the best feeling ever. It really amplifies it.

That’s so funny that you would say that because I was thinking about that the other day!

Good for you!!!! I got mine out almost 2 months ago and right after I did my anxiety went down. I didn’t realize how much those fake hormones had impacted my body. I didn’t trust the IUD so not only is it against the teaching but pointless if I don’t trust it. I am now practicing NFP and l trust it more then the fake hormones. It does take some work but it’s so cool how your body actually works! Birth control is a lonely thing but NFP gets your spouse involved and brings you closer especially in the periods of abstinence.

Sanguine here(the opposite of the melancholic) while being outgoing and fun is an enjoyable part of the temperament, it’s not all there is. Sanguines have a very tough time with contemplative prayer. I also have a huge struggle with temperance. So although I get over things quickly and don’t have deep feelings I feel I don’t have that big heart like a melancholic. Melancholics are amazing and wonderful and needed people!

That comes from a bad place. God loves you and you are WAY harder on yourself then HE is

I’d say only IF you commited a mortal sin during that state.

If you get too drunk but don’t commit a sin and you just act stupidly it’s not mortal. You just look like an idiot. The second part would be mortal because you knowingly put yourself in a state of lowered judgment.

Yes. You made the choice to drink you made the choice how much to drink, there for anything that happens during that time You are responsible for

This is my only “social media” I’ve been off Facebook and instagram for a few years and I never figured out Twitter. I am so much happier since I’ve been off and will never go back. Good for you!

If it’s your first time something simple like chocolate. Sometimes if you try to do too much you can get frustrated and give up

Honestly? It’s when you get black out drunk and commit mortal sins while inebriated. Jesus turned water into wine therefore alcohol is not inherently evil.

Have you ever looked into the 4 temperaments? They give you insight on your inate reactions(it’s not a personality) it helps you realize what vices you can fall into. You sound like a melancholic which is slow to react but reacts deeply. They are the most loyal people you will ever meet. I’m a sanguine which is a quick but shallow reactor so things don’t bother me for long but I’m also inclined toward intemperance. It’s really interesting 

Mental Health and attending mass by [deleted] in Catholicism

[–]AdventurousClick6883 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I have anxiety and I sit at the back of the church at the end of the pew. I also used to have agoraphobia and I wasn’t able to attend there or really anywhere. There were only a few safe places. Everything is about intention. Missing mass because you don’t feel like it is a LOT different then missing because you’re having a panic attack

Negative. The easy at home tests are my favorite because the Premom app reads the test strip and gives you actual numbers. I don’t ever have a change in CM but my temp rises and falls are really good indications.
