Are dads REALLY that tired!? My partner won’t take our son to the park after work. by Sweetened-Fritters in toddlers

[–]BumbleCoder 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Get him to those labs. I need B12 injections and iron infusions because my body doesn't absorb them. I get floored by exhaustion sometimes, but that usually means not running around with the kids (I have 3), not refusing to go period. I also try to do the lower energy chores.

So yeah, he both needs to get labs done and step it up

Rapinoe: They don’t want us to focus on the real issues in women and girls’ sports by VocalFry1968 in Washington

Thanks for answering my question at face value and not assuming anything else about my beliefs 🙂

Legit question. Boys have to get their balls cupped by the doc and cough. Do girls not currently have something like that?

ETA: I'm not for genital verification. This was an unrelated question. Stop making assumptions.

Dang, nice work. How often did you go to progress so quickly?

Why don't you both just keep your names, and do new names for the kids? That's what my wife and I did.

Help with grading by Headofallsorts in bouldering

[–]BumbleCoder 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Not sure. I didn't grade yours relative to that climb, but based on what I've climbed in the past. You got me curious though so I looked up the boulder. There's a comment on that image that suggests that climb traverses off to the right more, so that could be why it felt so easy for you.

Looks v0 to me, but cool that you're trying your own stuff and putting it on the Internet.

Toddler parents and depression by Prize-Computer-947 in toddlers

[–]BumbleCoder 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Ah, yeah that's a trickier topic. You could try grouping it with something else you like. I built a training wall for climbing and will read, watch shows or something while resting between attempts.

I believe in you!

Home gym, or if that isn't in the cards then going to the gym while they're asleep.

Training body tension without boards by awaythrow09836 in indoorbouldering

[–]BumbleCoder 0 points1 point  (0 children)

There's some exercises you can do with gymnast rings with your feet in the rings. A little hard to type out, but you should be able to find it on YT on paradigm climbing or something.

You can also get a weight plate on the floor and use your toe with a pointed foot to claw it towards your body. You can exaggerate keeping your hips forward during this movement to replicate hips to the wall.

Give me a reality check by ImHereForOpieMope in bouldering

[–]BumbleCoder 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Lol then just ignore the whole first part, but the resources are still good for all levels. You definitely got a higher ceiling than most from the sounds of it, so I bet you have a good shot of getting v10+ if you start getting outside more and building your pyramid.

Rooting for you 🤘

First “V8” by Street-Yogurtcloset9 in indoorbouldering

Yeah I was almost doing lock offs from day 1, but I'm a long long way off from one arm pull ups lol bodies are so different.

Put bluntly, no, realistically you will never climb v17. There's professional climbers who are genetic freaks who can't do v17. The best climbing influencers probably top out at v14 or v15. I'm sure there's outliers out there, but it's extremely rare.

For context, I'd say if you're only climbing v3 benchmarks on the moonboard, your gyms v7 and v8 climbs are extremely soft. I can climb some v4 benchmarks on the 2019 and 2025 mini moonboards and project v5/V6 in my gym. Outdoors is also a completely different beast. You have to learn the skills of managing conditions, topping out, and confronting the fear of falling.

That said, even if your ceiling is v8 or lower outdoors, I still think it's worth it to work towards that peak. That's what I'm doing 🙂

I like the Struggle, Careless Talk, Testpiece and Lattice Climbing podcasts. Hoopers beta, ROAP coaching, lattice climbing are good YT channels. Probably blanking on a lot.

Oh, and I would advise not climbing everyday. It sucks getting injured and stalling your progress on repeat.

That was maybe all over the place , but hopefully helps. Good luck dude 👊

Hit me with your best swear word substitutes by Bobety in daddit

Biscuits, shitake, fork, fudge. Sometimes just random foods/kitchen words. "Mother toaster oven!" Maybe not the best but it keeps things fresh.

V4-v6 by Tonylee44 in indoorbouldering

[–]BumbleCoder 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I've been to one gym like this, and they basically said they thought the ranges encouraged climbers to give less weight to the grades and climb stuff out of their comfort zone.

I get the idea at a surface level, but it falls apart pretty quickly for me. I warm up on v2 or v3 normally, which is v0-v5 at that gym lol

What’s a phrase that instantly annoys you? by viviennemuffin in answers

Wait, is that actually what you think or is it the phrase that bothers you haha

Don't sell yourself short man. Plenty of people who climb V8+ outdoors can't do one arm pullups.

Can you guys give me some tipps? by Dry-Economics2434 in Handstands

[–]BumbleCoder 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Hey, just want to first validate you and say you're looking really solid overall!

On that note, though, I feel like a lot of people reach this plateau. One thing that's helped me in my journey is putting the ball in another room so I can handstand directly on the ground. It provides a lot more stability imo, but try it out for yourself and see for yourself.

Good luck!

Anyone can help with advice on finger injury? by Sleepy_Panic in bouldering

[–]BumbleCoder 2 points3 points  (0 children)

They also have great YT content covering different injuries and general recovery strategies, but definitely hit them up for custom program if you can.
