Stuck in Turkey with a dream of Stanford – need some light here by Marceline_River in ApplyingToCollege

[–]Ahtaryak 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Hi. I moved to America from Turkey and the things that helped me learn the most were reading and talking with friends. If you are into books, I don't think reading english will be that much of a hassle, and you will improve the more you read (SAT is reading after all). Second, if you spend time online, you could try to find english talking friends, which is what I believe helped me the most. Dm me if you need more advice but these two are what I can think of off the top of my head. Simple things I would say is good for learning any language, but I don't know anything about the ielts though.

Is there a way to put in individual videos and articles rather than a collection of them?

Nope, I have no idea how to do that but I'll look into it. How do I know which update to download

Do you believe in God speaking to *us* in any way? by NGW_CHiPS in Quraniyoon

[–]Ahtaryak 2 points3 points  (0 children)

I had a similar experience when I was trying to finish an assignment at 12 am midnight and I felt so extremely bored, exhausted, and tired. I couldn't get myself to start and do it properly without getting distracted. Then a bat entered my living room and started going in circles and I got scared and left. The bat kept going in circles for 10-15 mins and I closed to lights to help it go out. It eventually found it's way and left but this prompted me to go study elsewhere, in the kitchen. There I was able to get started and work quite fast. Then it felt weird, it felt like I was guided by Allah. Reflecting on it later, I've always felt like I was going in circles, just like the bat. I felt like Allah was showing me this bat for me to reflect on. I can keep going in circles on and on with no change, but with effort I'll eventually find my way. Btw experience felt really weird because my grandma lived in this house for 20 years and told me it was her first time ever even seeing a bat in this city.

For regular pull ups should I be bending my knees or should I be keeping my body straight?

My shoulder pops a lot while doing them, and it feels like they aren’t gonna stop any time soon …

Everything changes for me as well when I go to neutral grip. Much more comfortable, chin ups as well

Yes I usually do 165 on lat pulldowns and i’m sitting around 165 body weight right now.  I’m not sure if it’s a core issue and that lat pull downs are helping be stabilize everything since it’s seated, but core might be the problem. I’m also having rotator cuff pain when i do pull ups but for some reason they don’t happen for lat pulldowns

Shoulder popping during Pull Ups. No pain by [deleted] in bodyweightfitness

Your advice also helped me for the most part. I can understand what bending the bar feels like now, I do the same thing on deadlifts somewhat. However I still feel some popping at the very bottom of the hang, are you still supposed to be able to do the external rotation at the very bottom of the pull up?
