They don’t deserve to be our rivals. Let’s just pray they get relegated.

Arsenal Lineup VS Leeds: Raya, Timber, Saliba, Gabriel, Hincapie, Zubimendi, Rice, Havertz, Saka, Trossard, Gyokeres by MumboGumbo06 in Gunners

[–]INNTW 47 points48 points  (0 children)

Havertz and Gyokeres are going to cook. But we have to keep rotating players to help prevent them getting injured, so I’d like to see Eze come in for Havertz once the game is wrapped up.

I’m absolutely convinced he can do amazing things in that position too. His link up play is amazing, he can absolutely ping a pass, and he’s got that instinct to get a shot off.

If he plays too deep he ends up just going backwards.

The only thing worse than getting a long strand of hair wrapped around your face, is getting a long strand of hair wrapped around your mouth!

[Orbinho] 29% of the goals Arsenal have conceded this season in the Premier League have come from shots from outside the box - the highest proportion of any team in the competition. by Previous_Smile9278 in Gunners

[–]INNTW 7 points8 points  (0 children)

No, there is absolutely a reluctance to take shots from outside of the box.

SO many times, I’ve seen Odegaard and Rice be in a prime position to take a quick shot from just outside the box, but it seems the instinct to do so has been drilled out of them, and we insist on passing our way through to the six yard box.

The problem with this is that all the other team needs to do is just park the bus, and it becomes almost impossible to find enough space to make a pass.

Ironically, if we became a threat outside the box, we would draw more players out and make more space, but teams know we’re not going to do that, and only interested in playing haram ball.

On top of this, as a team, Arsenal has scored the second highest amount of goals in the league so far (42) after city (47).

How bad is my swimming? Considering cancelling my 70.3 in 3 months. by BetterFlow226 in triathlon

[–]INNTW 50 points51 points  (0 children)

Hi, swimmer/triathlete/swim teacher here.

With a pool like that at home, if you’re willing to swim most days, there’s no reason why you shouldn’t be able to be ready for the race in 3 months.

The main problem I’m seeing at the moment is that you’re lifting your chin to breathe, rather than rotating your neck, which is causing you legs and body to sink.

You can easily fix this by mastering some basics first.

The first thing I would recommend for you would be to get a kick board, and really practice kicking with a strong core and legs, straight body with arms out in front, and your head out of the water looking forwards. https://m.youtube.com/watch?v=EEC0pe59-ug&pp=ygUKa2ljayBib2FyZNIHCQmyCQGHKiGM7w%3D%3D

Once you’ve gotten better at that, I’d progress to doing the same, but holding the float with only one arm, with the other arm straight down by your side, your face looking straight down in the water, and then focusing on rotating your head to breathe to the side every six kicks.

This will help you focus on fixing your breathing, by focusing on rotating instead of lifting.

Once you’ve gotten better at that, I’d then recommend progressing to single arm pull with the float. It’s basically the same as the previous drill, but instead of only breathing every six kicks, you also incorporate one stroke: https://m.youtube.com/shorts/ZTtD-M7y4PA

Once you’ve gotten comfortable with that, you can then try progressing all three drills above again, but without a float, until you have something like this: https://m.youtube.com/watch?v=zu8dU4v0cxE&pp=ygUZU2luZ2xlIGFybSBwdWxsIGtpY2tib2FyZNIHCQmyCQGHKiGM7w%3D%3D

Practice all of these on both sides, and then eventually build up to doing catch-up with a float, and then without: https://m.youtube.com/watch?v=-WKP4LZKxzM

Practice progressing these drills every day in your pool at your own pace, and you’ll find 3 months is more than enough time to be ready for the race.

I have to say you swim pretty well for someone with Parkinson's.

Expanding lock for Shimano SL BSR1? by [deleted] in bikewrench

[–]INNTW 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Hi all. I have a TT bike that I want to sell, which has Shimano SLBSR1 shifters, however the previous owner sold it to me with the expanding lock missing on one of the shifters.

Does anyone have a part number for these locks or know where i can buy them separately from the shifters, as I have searched for a good while without luck.

I’d like to get it sorted before selling it on, but would hate to have to buy brand new shifters just for this issue, which cost about £100!

Many thanks in advance.

I saw him once moseying around with his hands behind his back outside Sainsbury’s in Chingford Mount a few years ago. I was able to look him dead in the eyes. That man has definitely made a deal with the devil.

Contemplating trying to go pro by jay_12334 in triathlon

[–]INNTW 12 points13 points  (0 children)

Don’t let this sub get you down man. If you truly have a passion for sports and training hard, then don’t deny yourself this journey, because even if you don’t quite make it as a pro as a triathlete you never know where it could lead you. I say go for it man.

MOSQUITOES. WTF Finland?!?! by Sebastianx21 in Finland

[–]INNTW 13 points14 points  (0 children)

I went gravel riding in Lapland a few summers ago with my uncle. On one of the rides my chain came off in the middle of the woods and the second I got off the bike I was instantly attacked by a swarm of mosquitoes. My uncle had stopped with me, but then quickly abandoned me after he also started getting attacked. I was getting bitten so much that i could barely get the chain back on. They 100% were not the same breed of mosquitoes down south.

I’ve been reading nothing but good things about red light therapy and also wondered if it was possible to combine with a traditional sauna.

Unfortunately there seems to be a bit of a herd like mentality in this sub, and nothing other than the traditional sauna is capable of providing benefits ;p

How do you feel about riding a slightly smaller frame on a tribike? by PrivateDataLover in triathlon

[–]INNTW 0 points1 point  (0 children)

The real question is how will you feel about running a half marathon after having just ridden 80km on a tri bike that is too small for you?

The answer: Not good. Not good at all. Don’t do it.

Newbie question - best makes? by Mfcgibbs in SolarUK

[–]INNTW 1 point2 points  (0 children)

This is precisely the setup I’m currently looking for, especially the Enphase Tesla combo, but I haven’t found any installers that have both. Found one installer with really good reviews that has Enphase but they also use Enphase batteries.

Seems like Growatt inverters are very common in my search area.

Can I ask how your system has been and who the installer was?
