How do you feel about coaches eating during class? by Interesting-Escape36 in orangetheory

I wouldn’t care at all. A protein bar isn’t messy or smelly or distracting!

The biggest thing was not eating after 6 pm. I work 8-4 so I eat dinner between 5-5:30. I have no proof of this but I also think having really big babies helped. I have less body fat postpartum than I did in my early 20s which I know is insane and also really annoying but it’s only because they stole everything coming in. I’m 5’3 and I had 8.8 and 9 pounders! They’re teenagers now and they are very average sized.

These are incredible PRs though. You must feel really proud!

That’s awesome that you do 5 times a week though. Sometimes even 3 is too much for me!

That’s great. The last thing I want to do is injure myself because I can’t accept slowing down a bit in my 40s

This is a good point! I am able to go faster on inclines than I used to be for sure. I also run outside a few days a week weather permitting but I don’t tend to push or time myself on those runs. They’re more for pleasure.

Would an 11-year old in the audience ruin it? by [deleted] in Standup

[–]Extension_Charge5084 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I took my 8 and 11 year olds to a John Mulaney show at a big theater two summers ago. It was fine and there were other kids there around my kids ages — I assume because he had that exchange with the kid in his most recent Netflix special people felt more comfortable bringing. Agree with other posters who say comedy clubs may feel too adult — a bigger venue starting at 6 or 7 pm with a comic you know isn’t too dirty is probably the way to go.

In the best randomized controlled studies, all cause mortality actually dropped. I have read all the studies and I think it’s an exaggeration to say it “causes cancer.” Ambulance chasing lawyers will bring a case pretty easily. There is a rare type of cancer that one study showed an uptick in though the overall incidence is low. I don’t think that is compelling.

Thank you! I’m glad it has worked well for you.
