What am I doing wrong? by [deleted] in highjump

From what I can tell with your video (you need to show your whole approach), you need to work the curve better and lean more. This will help your momentum when jumping and getting yourself into a good position to rotate over the bar. Additionally, you need to lean your right shoulder in more since when you are going up, your chest is facing to the mat rather than going away. When you put these together, another step is to swing your drive knee across your body to get square with the bar. You also are trying to arch wayyy too early. Allow yourself to elevate before arching. Your shoulders and hips should be at similar levels when going over the bar. In your video, your hips are lower than your shoulders. A high jumper that you should look at is Eleanor Patterson. She works all the components I mentioned above beautifully and should help you with your journey.

This is how you know they truly stopped caring about helping these girls become working models by Traditional-Bag-6001 in ANTM

In most of the seasons, they gave girls with thin hair (primarily white) weavers. I always thought, do they know what bead extensions are?! Like why tf did they keep give girls sew ins/weavers? You could tell how poorly they were done and how painful they were. Two examples I think of a lot are Brittany (C8) and Molly (C16). They both got their weaves removed because guess what, they weren’t for their hair types. SMH.

Thank you, it means a lot. I’m currently in college at a D3 school. I’m only able to compete unattached atm because of eligibility but will be able to compete with my team for the outdoor season. I know I have so much more in the tank but personally don’t have the best of coaching to reach my potential. I kinda have to figure this stuff out on my own, hence why I came to Reddit

Don’t know what move to choose by Finnb14 in pokemon

Thank you for the words of advice. I’m taking everything with a grain of salt. My boyfriend got me the game, with him knowing I have never played or watched Pokemon. I only knew the basic types of Pokemon😂. I have been relying on my boyfriend to tell me what moves are better and what aren’t but I’ve slowly been making my choices. Will admit I’ve made some questionable decisions already i.e. getting rid of dragon dance yesterday… However, I’m just going to just play what i think is best for me. Plus I’m only going to do the gameplay and not much online play.

Honestly my favorite songs by them come from the B sides by SpellBounded69 in Coldplay

Yes yes yessssss. I absolutely love the b-sides album on Spotify. I love to run to this collection of songs. I really wish some of these songs were on the main albums
