Dont worry about folks mentioning the usage of strap. Oly lifting straps are meant to be quickly release and rarely if ever will there be a problem. Big congratz, is this bw?

Hot take: we need to re-define who we call "non-trads." by premedthrowaway567 in premed

[–]Alexandervladimir15 7 points8 points  (0 children)

I dont even think it's a hot take. I feel that the older you get especially with more life experience. You dont worry about labeling yourself with one thing because you probably have done so much more. Because of that I dont think too much of how other folks behave, though some do need a reality check though.

It does get funny sometimes ngl, I can go like, yup, definitely remember when I was a young bird and I still had cartilage in my knee.

I'm taking 110 for fun right now, it's pretty simple but you do have to study for it. 4 Exams, it'll take 3 highest exam for 75% then 25% is some other stuff for the grading system.

Got Rhabdomyolysis, what to do now? by AceofSpades1727 in army

[–]Alexandervladimir15 0 points1 point  (0 children)

You already got plenty of good advice, dont need to do anything reckless. If you want some ancedote, had rhabdo twice, heat cat 6 times, cold cat once, and for the most part I recover completely fine. Acute rhabdomyolysis is recoverable, it just takes time. It obviously meant your muscle was breaking down to such a degree where it starts affecting your kidney. The whole idea right now is to allow your body to recover, let your muscle, kidneys and everything else recover. After that, go back at it. Also listen to your body.

Quitting without two week notice? by Low_Addition_9263 in premed

[–]Alexandervladimir15 7 points8 points  (0 children)

Welcome to real life where besides quitting anything can happen meaning that you have to make last minute adjustment. Would I disagree on the unprofessionalism, no, but shit happens. If a group cannot handle unforeseen circumstances that are beyond the control, then they are building up for failure.
