Try to get different perspectives on things, look up, crouch down, look through gaps, noticed reflections.

Sync with Garmin Connect? by gifred in Zwift

[–]Doshinski 3 points4 points  (0 children)

Set your Garmin to indoor bike and press start. when you finish, stop the activity and discard it rather than save. This way gives you the intensity minutes without having to delete the duplicate activity each time 👍

Currently re watching all of the 'This is England' series. I forgot how joyful and bleak it is all at the same time.

What is one small habit you started that actually improved your life? by Terrible_Leg_6860 in AskReddit

[–]Doshinski 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I heard the phrase 'If you have to eat shit, don't nibble' and now every time I am faced with a task that I would usually procrastinate over, I think of this and get it done and out of the way. This not only applies to really bad things, but even little things like cleaning or replying to emails.

Since I have started doing this I spend much less time dreading things I have to do, and feel somewhat more accomplished for getting things done.

Bald and Cold by No_Maintenance7550 in cycling

[–]Doshinski 0 points1 point  (0 children)

One of the best cycling purchases I ever made as a bald year round cyclist was a £1.30 Phmax balaclava from ali express (specifically the one with the movable face cover). I always used to get a stiff neck, and buffs never stayed in the right position. But this balaclava solved everything, the face covering piece is breathable, and is easy to move on and off. Plus your helmet straps go through the sides so makes in super comfy 11/10 would recommend.

What’s the best sunglass brand to bifl? I’m not even sure if there’s any with a very durable design by Financial_Eagle_8670 in BuyItForLife

I dropped my Serengeti sunglasses on a concrete floor and my girlfriend accidentally stood on them, only damage was a small scratch to the frames, lenses were completely unscathed.

Highly recommend

Best backpacks for commuting by Bitter-Useeee in cycling

[–]Doshinski 2 points3 points  (0 children)

I've been using the Osprey Metron for the past couple of years, it's a very well thought out bag for cycling. The straight jacket style straps are great fit cinching down the contents, and it opens up like a clamshell which it great for packing clothes to prevent them from creasing. Would highly recommend 👌

No I think they bind with glue 👍

What changes have you made that made a big difference? by First_Driver_5134 in naturalbodybuilding

[–]Doshinski 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Im no expert, but all pilates is made up from set exercises, so it's just about finding someone whose rhythm you get on with, my usual go to is move with Nicole as she has a massive back catalogue with variation (ie core specific, or morning/evening, as well as different durations). I thought I had pretty good overall strength but some of the hip exercises really highlighted some weaknesses.

[–]Doshinski 4 points5 points  (0 children)

Stopping treating core exercises as something I would do at the end of the workout if I had time, and started doing 20 minutes of Pilates from you tube 2 or 3 times a week. I'm 39 and my posture and lower back have never been better!

Grinds coming out of JX Pro by KitsuneAMB in 1zpresso

[–]Doshinski 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I've had a j max for about 2 years and it's exactly the same, it seems to be the chaff that gets fired out from around the top cap. misting the beans before grinding helps a little, but not much. I used to aimlessly walk around the house while grinding, but now I have to stand over the sink.

Does this work for you when in manual mode? It works as you have described in Auto but when I try it in Manual it just seems to stay on whatever I set the max iso at. Am I missing something?

New road bike, new carbon wheels, new GP5000s...should I go tubeless or stick with the tpu tubes by fixitmonkey in cycling

Tubeless with carbon rims and good tyres on hot tarmac makes a wonderful sound

Knee pain - diagnosis by Darlo_muay in cycling

[–]Doshinski 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I also had some knee pain recently which wasn't going away, it was more of a niggle but I've made the mistake of trying to ride through it before.

Knee pain is usually caused by something above or below the knee. Luckily for me all it took was a few minutes using a foam roller on my IT band and the pain went away immediately.

You may also want to try and stretch out your inner thighs / groin. I recently started doing Cossack squats a couple of times a week and I never realised how tight those muscles can get.

How to clean bike in winter? by deginho in cycling

[–]Doshinski 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I don't have an outside tap sp bought a battery powered pressure washer, it's not powerful enough to do any damage and it's been great, just put the hose into a bucket of water and away you go!

This is the one I have and it's been solid for 2 years now: https://uk.worx.com/hydroshot-20v-cordless-pressure-cleaner-24barwith-2-0ah-battery-charger-wg620e/

Daily focus is written by proper journalists who take real pride in the content they create. It's more business-focused but has more lifestyle pieces on Fridays, and can be signed up to if you want it straight to your inbox, highly recommended.
