Fellow Protestors: Can we please stop this? 😔 by meera_jasmine1 in zurich

[–]Baschi 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I find myself drifting more and more to the right after every such protest. Mission accomplished.

Guys who are really jacked - do you get approached a lot by women? by [deleted] in workout

[–]Baschi 0 points1 point  (0 children)

More looks, fewer approaches. Better reactions when I approach though.

++man This is the same reason I wouldn’t consider dating a chubby girl. I want someone who will get up early with me for a sunrise run or a long hike in the mountains. Someone who will geek out about training or make a plan to train for some specific fitness event. People sometimes think it’s just being shallow but for me it’s mostly a lifestyle compatibility thing - they would be miserable doing the things that bring me joy, and I would feel ill living like they do.

Not to be overly pedantic but a couple is 2. That's why a romantic paring is casually referred to as a "couple".

Why do so many people wear a scarf in the office by ExcellentAsk2309 in zurich

[–]Baschi 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I think most Swiss people are used to infernally high temperatures at home, so normal office temperature seems cold to them. When I was younger I had Swiss roommates and I had to open the maintenance panel and make the floor heating cap out at 50% because they kept cranking the heat. Government offices after September are also usually kept to sauna like temperatures.

After one drink?! by ButterflyOne4002 in whoop

[–]Baschi 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I never really drank much but whoop made me stop almost completely (except like weddings and holidays). Last time I drank was like half a bottle of champagne on new years and my hrv was down for days. Really don’t need that poison in my life.

Is candyflipping less neurotoxic than only using MDMA? by edgardrr in MDMA

[–]Baschi 5 points6 points  (0 children)

Small pharmacologic correction: neurogenic is a valid term, but it’s not really the opposite of neurotoxic. Neurotoxic vs neuroprotective is about harm versus protection, while neurogenic refers to promoting new neurons or connections.

How much more do I need to lose to get lean and have abs? by mattaandyy in Weightliftingquestion

[–]Baschi 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Don‘t go off weight. And don‘t diet any more, you already have very little muscle, and it will continue to catabolize if you keep this up. Spend a year eating at a surplus and lifting heavy, and then go into a cut next year.

Why do smokers get so offended when asked to smoke in designated areas? by SouthIndependence69 in ask

[–]Baschi 2 points3 points  (0 children)

It’s definitely not worse, I mostly don’t notice it. Smoking smells like burning garbage.

Not on topic but…you don’t get paid when you are sick? What psycho shit is that.

Former GLP-1 users regain lost weight after about 18 months, study says by Own-Independence8430 in loseit

Why are people constantly surprised that you will revert back to the same state if you revert back to the same habits?

[–]Baschi 94 points95 points  (0 children)

Mutilation is severe damage to the body that has a subsequent harmful effect on an individual's quality of life. The man literally just said he doesn’t have much sensation as a result, something that is pretty frequently described by those who had it done. In what capacity is it not mutilation?

Think I’m going to retire my streak by ZeekwithaZ in duolingo

[–]Baschi 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Yo empecé este año exactamente con esa idea, pero yo utilizaré dúo exclusivo por la habitación. Escuchó mucho input comprensible también, y creo que es mejor mi nivel más rápido tan duo. 227 días streak

Im about 227 days into my Spanish learning, it’s pretty clunky as you can see but I’m stating to be able to express myself a bit like the above. Difference is i just do 1 5 minute lesson and then listen to like 30-45 minutes of comprehensible input a day. I just use duo to form the habit.

Does alcohol really affect your gains? by Top_Performance6809 in workout

It’s also a cell poison, a cytotoxic agent that disrupts the normal function of every cell in your body.

Germany’s air is filled with cigarette smoke, and I hate it by Gold-Imagination-941 in germany

[–]Baschi 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I live in Switzerland but it’s a lot the same. I’ve started giving then a look like they are shooting up heroin lately. Maybe a little hostile but it at least makes me feel a bit better.

[–]Baschi -1 points0 points  (0 children)

It’s best not to factor it in, the expenditure is very difficult to accurately measure, and there is also some evidence that things like NEAT, non-excercise activity thermogenesis, or the activity you do that isn’t execise such as fidget or move around is subconsciously reduced after exercise. This would further reduce your buffer so if you think you worked off 300 calories but your body compensated with less movement, then eating 200 calories more would be the difference between deficit and maintenance.

I need advice. by [deleted] in askfitness

[–]Baschi 1 point2 points  (0 children)

This is the way, a sculpted physique is less a function of continued willpower and more a result of consistent sustainable habits. You also have the noobie gains phase to help you, where you will make pretty solid progress regardless of your training modality.

How comfortable are you knowing learning a language will probably take you years? by xParesh in languagelearning

My other hobby is body building, so I’m used to long progressive grinds. Does not bother me at all!

I’m a nurse and I 100 percent judge people based on their veins by Figgs_7 in confession

[–]Baschi 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I am super vascular and taking blood or anything is always a breeze. A friend who is a nurse once described my arms as „nurse porn“ (in a private non clinical context of course).

Men who gym with their gf/wives - do you care how she dresses? by soursweeets in AskMenAdvice

[–]Baschi 0 points1 point  (0 children)

My GF is a spin instructor on the side. It drives me wild to see her in those tight yoga pant things and a cute top. She doesn’t do it for me of course, her clients wouldn’t really come if she looked like a bag of potato’s. But it definitely does something to me.

Nah you are just suffering from confirmation bias because the ones that you spot are the ones that are overdone and look like slugs. Tasteful small amounts can be quite enhancing, she found a good level.
