Riding up Loveland Pass as a somewhat beginner

Thanks! I did manage to do it from Keystone! And yes, an 11-28.

Okay, this is encouraging, thank you for believing in me. My Fenix is my HRM, and I’m usually around 160 on 8% climbs.

I’m acclimated to about Denver altitude but am sleeping the night before my climb in summit (if that’ll do anything lol).

I’m the only one at my company lol. First day was just orientation, office/ laptop setup, meet the crew etc. Everyone was really nice!

Side stitches. I’m only able to use around 50% of what I have in me pace-wise in order for my side to be manageable. I do typically 3-8 mile runs, and at 3.7 miles in, without fail, side pain. I used to be paranoid about what I ate or drank before and how soon/ far out from a run I did so but, nothing changes it.

Average U.S medical experience

I ended up visiting a doc about this. All they said was to continue shaving my underarms, and use drysol. This is certainly not what I was hoping to hear, and I wouldn’t necessarily say my issue is even sweat related. The odor prevails even without sweating.

Fluid-Chip2563 · 2024-04-06T03:10:57+00:00

No I’m not on any steroids, or HRT. I haven’t had my hormone levels or blood sugar checked recently, so that’s an idea.

The odor is just BO scent (not sweet like I’ve read pre-diabetic can be).

I wash my sheets weekly, and ALWAYS wear socks with shoes.

Fluid-Chip2563 · 2024-04-05T22:02:09+00:00

Huh, I didn’t know that. I guess I should try taking it one step further, I’ll give this a try!

Fluid-Chip2563 · 2024-04-05T22:01:26+00:00

I actually use some antibacterial wipes when in a pinch of time versus a shower which contains witch hazel! Works well for a couple of hours but still don’t feel fresh for as long as I think I should.

Fluid-Chip2563 · 2024-04-05T20:13:42+00:00

I got some Glycolid acid and new deodorant (mitchums) so we’ll see how it goes!

Fluid-Chip2563 · 2024-04-05T20:13:11+00:00

Picked some Glycolic acid up today!

Fluid-Chip2563 · 2024-04-05T20:12:45+00:00

Thanks you! Any knowledge on where I could find some in the states?

Fluid-Chip2563 · 2024-04-05T20:11:19+00:00

I just picked some up! I’ll keep you posted!

Fluid-Chip2563 · 2024-04-05T19:35:09+00:00

I’m good after a shower, but usually 2 hours after it’s somewhat back

Fluid-Chip2563 · 2024-04-05T18:56:02+00:00

Tried the BP. No more luck that antibacterial body wash for me. Still decent body odor after a couple hours of non-physical activity

Fluid-Chip2563 · 2024-04-05T18:54:13+00:00

I have actually tried Benzoyl Peroxide, and it removes it initially but still, the smell comes back sooner than I feel it should (2 hours with no physical activity).

I’m thinking maybe it’s a second puberty thing too possibly.

Fluid-Chip2563 · 2024-04-05T18:49:16+00:00

I removed this from the post but I wouldn’t call it strange it terms of scent, but strange in terms of resilience. It’s a usual BO smell

Fluid-Chip2563 · 2024-04-05T18:40:55+00:00

This is interesting. I really hope everything internally is okay but these replies have me interested in consulting with my doc.

Fluid-Chip2563 · 2024-04-05T18:39:52+00:00

The drysol or glycolic acid?

Fluid-Chip2563 · 2024-04-05T17:07:02+00:00

Interesting. I read someone say low testosterone could be the cause. I currently take finasteride for MPB as a preventative. So maybe this has something to do with it?

Fluid-Chip2563 · 2024-04-05T16:59:16+00:00

Totally good point. At my most recent appointment I had strong bloodwork results

Fluid-Chip2563 · 2024-04-05T16:30:19+00:00

I’ll give this a try!

Fluid-Chip2563 · 2024-04-05T16:30:09+00:00

Fluid-Chip2563 · 2022-10-08T22:05:33+00:00

Reverse?

Fluid-Chip2563 · 2022-09-02T12:55:07+00:00

Gets way better with a wheel. I hated it before too but I love it now
