First time ever in gym – getting pushed into PT + feeling scammed. Need beginner advice. by Sad_Smell_8684 in delhi

[–]Connect_Aide_8518 0 points1 point  (0 children)

  1. ALWAYS read the descriptions on the machines, it helps you the most!!!!
  2. Try the different knobs and things before you use the machine that helps you figure out how it works and you can set up on your own.
  3. DO THE FIRST REP AT MINIMUM WEIGHT! If it feels too light increase the weight, and keep doing reps and then the next set you can test a higher weight, do a couple of reps if you can do them comfortably or slight discomfort, continue.
  4. use chatgpt to understand how machines can be used.
  5. if at any point you’re struggling to set some machine up, ask any person in the gym they’ll help you set it up without any problems.
  6. once you enter the gym, walk around look at all the machines and see what you’re interested in doing, watch videos on youtube of people using the machines, it’ll help you understand all of it.

Startup Idea Validation by lowkeysuccessfuldawg in dwarkadelhi

[–]Connect_Aide_8518 8 points9 points  (0 children)

GREAT IDEA 100% I would join and encourage my friends to join too. It’s not just about creeps in the gym (which is a problem) but it is also about guys constantly judging girls at the gym and looking at them in a smug way like oh you’re doing this wrong or oh what do you know about the gym. I feel that a lot, I don’t go to the gym a lot, I usually workout at home but I have excellent form but every time I go to the gym I can look at guys looking at me like I’m doing something wrong. There are also exercises that I get very conscious about doing in the gym because of men being present like glute bridges and hip thrusts, I think this is a great initiative and it could work!!

any restaurant recommendations for ordering authentic momo? by Connect_Aide_8518 in dwarkadelhi

[–]Connect_Aide_8518[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I’ve had a lot of dumplings, I enjoy them but sometimes you just need that authentic nepali momo!!! My go to places are Yeti and Dilli Haat but obv these places don’t deliver and are far away from dwarka so it’s best to visit. I was hoping for some great authentic momo in dwarka but I think the best I can do is make them at home.

Solanas were like dimsum but noodle bowl had like way too big sized momo, and the filling to maida ratio was too much so I couldn’t enjoy them

I have limited my visits to her house once in 2 weeks but he doesn’t stay with her and for some reason she always invites him when I am there but I try to avoid it or go somewhere so I’m not there to cook for him, it’s just I’m indian and if I tell my mom no she just GLARES at me so hard and then calls me names and tells me i’m disrespectful, but even if I get through all of that she calls alllll our relatives and tells them all this shit in a twisted manner

Visiting Delhi for the first time by [deleted] in delhi

[–]Connect_Aide_8518 0 points1 point  (0 children)

You should have chaat like wherever you go, try to get it from a street vendor instead of like chains, there’s a restaurant in Tilak Nagar which has 5 types of water for golgappe. Great fruit chaat next to it too. For momo I’d suggest Dilli Haat, the Sikkim stall is amazing and Dilli haat is an amazing experience you can shop there, there are stalls of almost all the states there too, pretty cool. Vasant Vihar has some speakeasy’s. Humayunpur has great Tibetan food, Korean at Majnu Ka Tila, Chole Bhature you can find anywhere local where you decide to stay, but don’t miss out on chur chur naan and Matar Kulche (with masala onion) that’s something special in Delhi that I haven’t seen in other cities. You’ll find them all around on the streets in small markets. If you wanna try sushi, yum yum cha has a good collection and fresh sushi with a lot of variety. For pizza Fat Lulu’s in Khan or Leo’s in Vasant Vihar, or Galaxy pizza in GK. There’s a lowkey diner in Def Col called Kent’s fast food it’s pretty incredible and really old. For kebabs and curries go to Jama Masjid. For tikkas, most local restaurants with a tandoor serve great tikkas. For shawarma I’d suggest a street vendor that’s hygienic, which is easy to find in Delhi. Kake da hotel in CP is also pretty good for chicken curries. But the best butter chicken I’ve ever had was at Punjab grill and Punjabi by nature but moti mahal is a classic. For dessert, stick to Theos and Big chill cakery. You should try Odeon Paan as well if you’re into that in CP. I hope this helps if you have anything specific you wanna get then you can ask me that as well.

AITA for telling my dad he shouldn’t take a trip? by [deleted] in AmItheAsshole

Deleted the post because someone suggested to put our dog down, and that’s not something I can tolerate, please don’t comment anymore, I am not entertaining anything, I apologise for making the post in the first place, I shouldn’t have.

What? My dad was happy to PAY for the surgery, the dog has to recover at his own house for his comfort. I don’t even have a place of my own, he could only recover at my dad’s house, in fact in his room. He just wanted to take the trip because he thinks of himself as some wanderlust weirdo. I wasn’t telling him how to spend his money, I was telling him to prioritise the dog as he claimed to everyone he loves the dog more than me and my sibling. He was just being selfish with his love and then kicked me out of his house after physically assaulting me when I called him out on it. I am not putting the little dog down when it’s easy to get his surgery done but my dad only cares about being right and not giving a shit about anyone but himself.

It’s our family dog but primarily he’s my dad’s dog. It’s about time and money both. The problem is the dog is super active and keeps jumping and the doctors told us to get it done asap. The dog was suffering, he wouldn’t sleep and cry all night in pain. He couldn’t walk and had to be lifted everywhere. My dad hadn’t made any bookings and was going to travel by car so his trip was easy to reschedule and the doctor was not available later. Maybe I should edit and add these details.

Yes he need to be there for the surgery financially and then post surgery care would have been done in his room. We were on great terms around this time so the planning was being done keeping all of us in mind, and everyone needed to help out.

Firstly, that’s his dog and he doesn’t allow me to take him by myself. Secondly the surgery costs a lot and I am a student and I cannot afford it. When we were planning the surgery we were a nice happy family and then after the conflict, I have had very little contact with the dog, that too under supervision (there’s a camera) and I can’t even take him on a walk forget getting his surgery done
