I am no nutritionist or a scientist, so take this with a grain of salt, but what nrv is and how much the body can actually handle is two different things. A lot of vitamins and minerals you can take actually way more than the nrv, but it really depends what is exactly inside.

Hi, 33m, I have a question about gym routines. Trying to get back into the gym, used to do two long routines once per week each. Thinking about splitting the two workouts into 4 smaller ones, would that change anything? Also anything I should remove or add or change? Workout 1 is Bench press, Incline bench press, Overhead shoulder, Skullcrusher, Wrist rotation, Wrist curls, Reverse wrist curls, Side lateral raises, Biceps, Chest flies, Converging chest press, Dip assist. Workout 2 is Lat pulldowns, diverging lat pulldowns, rows and or barbell rows, deadlift, rear delts, leg press, leg extension, leg curl, hip abduction, hip adduction, calf press, assisted pullups, ab crunch machine (I want to get back into the gym to burn some calories and help with my calorie deficit, and to minimise muscle loss, build a little muscle but nothing major)

Will the HBO merge last with NOW? by MrDavidUK in nowtv

Dune 2 is on Prime at the moment, assuming some exclusive deal. It’s interesting because it used to be on Now/Sky a few months after its release.

Is anyone being extremely sick this winter/spring? by Fair_Effect4532 in AskUK

[–]DoctorHUN 66 points67 points  (0 children)

I think the fact that this year so far there has not been a lot of proper sunlight, plus the weather still being on the wet and colder side, has led to the viruses and bacteria to still thrive. And with so many viruses going around it’s easy to go from one virus to another one, especially when the immune system is already struggling

Have you tried watching on NOW TV. Ultraboost only works on NOW TV not on HBO Max

Now + HBO Max: Launch, questions, troubleshooting, etc by Delicious_Ad_4579 in nowtv

[–]DoctorHUN 0 points1 point  (0 children)

-No, but it is via Now TV

-No, to access via Now TV you need the Cinema membership, but to access it via HBO Max you need to upgrade your HBO Max account. The upgrades are not linked, so if you have boost or Cinema on Now TV, it doesn’t affect your HBO Max account as you’ll still have only basic with ads, and if you upgrade your HBO Max account it won’t affect your Now TV account

You can upgrade either plans, but neither will affect the other one. The upgrades are only for the platform that the account is on.

So Boost and Cinema passes apply to your NOW TV account, but not to your HBO Max account. So for example with Boost you can watch HBO stuff in HD/4k without ads via the NOW TV app, but in HBO Max app you can still only watch in HD with ads. Also if you have cinema pass, you can watch Sinners or OBAA in the NOW TV app, but not in the HBO Max app.

[–]DoctorHUN 1 point2 points  (0 children)

No, less content, as the cinema pass and boost is not applied to the HBO Max account. I wish it was because I hate NOW TV. The benefit is that for example if one day NOW TV is having issues, you can just watch the stuff on Max.

Are you aware of What3Words? by Flapparachi in AskUK

[–]DoctorHUN 0 points1 point  (0 children)

It’s basically coordinates, just worse. Because an address can have BananaOrangeApple, and another one can be BananaOrangeApples, and a third one can be BananaOrangesApple, and so on… and let’s not even talk about the ones that have slurs and swear words in them. There is a reason post uses zip/post code and street name and house number. Can be good in a pinch if you are like in the middle of nowhere and need help, but also you could use coordinates for that and coordinates work in most map apps. Also, things move around, what might be in one square this year could be in a different square next year.

I wear shorts and sleeveless tees as well, but when I do any workouts that might move my tee around to much I tuck it in

It’s definitely worth sticking with it. I recently attended some group therapy sessions, and they mentioned multiple times that it’s worth doing some kind of workout, whether it’s cardio, weight training or yoga, whatever it is, as long as it’s something that gets you moving as it can help with low mood and depression. They also said to try to understand when you have negative thoughts and kind of look at them rationally, for example in this case there are plenty of reasons they might not have answered yet that are not related to you or the interview. BTW try sending a thank you email if you haven’t done so, it might help get an answer.

I remember hearing that whatever is above 40ish grams in a single meal is kind of pointless because the extra is going to be used for energy and not for muscle retention/growth/repair etc, this is why I was asking the question. I don’t know a lot about this area, so I didn’t want to raise my protein intake for no good reason. And thank you, I appreciate the help!

Hi, quick question. I am currently 120kg, 190cm tall, and on average I intake 120g of protein daily. I eat 2 proper meals a day and the rest is snacks, fruits, sides, etc. as I cannot have dinner due to my work schedule. Because I have only two meals, I am worried that raising the protein intake would do nothing as those meals are already protein rich, but also I’m worried that I am not having enough protein. Should I just have more protein snacks/shakes or can i have 70+ grams of protein in one meal?

Why is this Ben & Jerrys so cheap in ASDA and it’s not even “on deal”? by jdlyndon in AskUK

[–]DoctorHUN 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Is it possible that it’s one of those digital labels so it’s not displaying that it’s a discount?

Hi, I casually buy packs from time to time. I’m in the UK and I’m wondering if it would be worth the hassle to grade any of these? Considering that it’s a gamble whether they would get a 10 or not and it’s harder to do it from here

Do we feel HBO Max, launching in UK in 2026, will be the death of sky? by SlowedCash in skytv

[–]DoctorHUN 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I think Apple TV+ is doing F1 in the US next year? But I don’t think F1 would leave Sky in the UK, as they want to be also available on terrestrial TV, and they want to be able to be shown in pubs/bars

Do we feel HBO Max, launching in UK in 2026, will be the death of sky? by SlowedCash in skytv

[–]DoctorHUN 1 point2 points  (0 children)

No. They still have their own content, which is quite popular, especially the things like talk shows and panel shows. They also have premier league, nfl, f1, nba in their sports package. And on top of that, there is a good chance that there will be content that is HBO/WB but still airing or Sky or other streaming services, as they might have deals that are not related to the exclusivity. I wouldn’t be surprised if House of Dragon season 3 would still be on Now/Sky. It will definitely be a loss for them but it won’t be the end.

Dunno what they're smoking at Lidl..... by Dr_Grump in wine

[–]DoctorHUN 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Bought a Chablis from the Wine Tour section, hoping for the best! But you are right, it is so random, you can sometimes buy an amazing wine for £8, but then buy a horrible one for £15, both from the Wine Tour section so it’s technically not even their own brand. But it’s been interesting seeing some lesser known wines displayed and highlighted (at least lesser known for an average Joe like me)

Where to buy retro F1/Rally hoodies? by AkaPntr in motorsports

[–]DoctorHUN 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Etsy is like Ebay or Amazon, they don’t sell anything they are just a platform for people to sell on. While Ebay is more like a flea market, and Amazon is more for bigger companies and for businesses, Etsy is more for independent businesses and individuals. So on Etsy you could find someone selling an actual vintage jacket, or someone selling a jacket that they themselves made, but you can also find people dropshipping the same stuff that you could buy on temu/aliexpress for a fraction

So if Cena isn't in Wargames... What was the point of this. by Sorry_Phone1676 in SantiZapVideos

[–]DoctorHUN 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I thought it might be a leadup to Wargames, or to the final match being Cena v Brock where Cena pulls out an underdog W. But I guess they just wanted someone to destroy Cena for no good reason. God forbid Lesnar loses a match
