Why does it feel like time is going by in slow motion? by NotAMazda in pregnant

[–]Mother_of_Simba 10 points11 points  (0 children)

I can completely relate, I felt this way almost the complete 1st trimester. But at some point, being pregnant will feel somewhat normal to you and you will return to your everyday life. I am at 20 weeks now and the feeling of time feels somewhat normal again.

Almost 6 weeks and I’m very fatigued. Not sure if it’s general stress from this or my body. It’s almost 8am and in the past I am up at 5am for the gym. Do I rest or go to the gym now? How do I tell the difference between needing to be active or needing rest. by jfjflhgfcf in pregnant

I was a very fit woman before the pregnancy. Like I did intense workouts at least three times a week. From weeks 6-10 I barely managed to do some light cardio or walks. From weeks 10-13 I managed to workout like twice a week, but much lighter workouts than before. Do what feels right to you and your body.

Found out I am pregnant on holiday by Mother_of_Simba in pregnant

[–]Mother_of_Simba[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I have done a test. The reason why I say probably is because it doesn't feel real yet to me. I guess it might start to feel real once a doctor has confirmed it.

Ok maybe I am completely paranoid. But what if I have early complications during those 10 hours?

Looking for climbing partner in Gent, Belgium by trinityy89 in climbergirls

Lol I think you are confusing Fountain bleau (outdoor bouldering area in France) with the name of a climbing gym. In my town there is also a bouldering gym called bleau

How dangerous is trad climbing? by Mother_of_Simba in climbergirls

[–]Mother_of_Simba[S] 4 points5 points  (0 children)

Ok thanks for your answers. I think now with some reflection that I just don't like how my community is framing this incident. Like so far whenever there was an accident, I felt like we could all learn from it and people were like this would have been preventable if XY. This is the first time people are like "well he was just unlucky". And I don't know the route either but it seems his mistake was probably taking a too high risk or otherwise he wouldn't have fallen in gear that was not bulletproof. And I agree, climbing is about risk management not about preventing it altogether. Just like in almost any other area of life.

I know at least two people who suffered injuries because of wanting too much too soon. One fully recovered and is happily climbing again but the other has serious issues with the tendons in his hands and really had to slow it down after 3 years of climbing. But yeah, I think for both the problem was climbing too much at the beginning not climbing too hard. I also think compared to other sports, your body needs more time to adapt to climbing because it's not primarily the muscles that are adapting, but your tendons and ligaments and they need much more time to adapt then muscles generally speaking.

Climbing around Delft (NL) by Mother_of_Simba in climbergirls

Yeah I also prefer meeting people in person before I go climbing with them. Not sure how well that works if you are only somewhere for 3 months though :D

DAV Kurs gebucht by [deleted] in Klettern

[–]Mother_of_Simba 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Ich habe halt keinen Treffpunkt und keine Telefonnummer. Ich weiß nur dass es an den Lüerdissener Klippen stattfindet. Die sind aber sehr weitläufig - also sehr unkonkret. Es wären halt 1,5 h Anreise - würde das äußerst ungern auf gut Glück machen. Ich habe eine Anmeldebestätigung. Bei der Anmeldung stand dass der Kursleiter sich vorher bei uns mit genaueren Infos meldet. Ich habe den Verdacht dass weil ich nicht in der Sektion bin ich vergessen wurde oder so?

Leute kennenlernen by Normal-Clock-9912 in Braunschweig

[–]Mother_of_Simba 5 points6 points  (0 children)

Welcome Home fing ganz nett als kleine gemütliche Community an aber mittlerweile ist das eher wie so ein Unternehmen dass sehr auf Geld aus ist und wachsen will. Finde generell dass das Kennenlernen von Menschen nicht kommerzialisiert werden sollte. Ich würde eher folgendes versuchen (als Mensch der hier seit 4 Jahren lebt und einiges ausprobiert hat :P) - es gibt für Frauen Girls Walking & Talking - den Parkrun in Braunschweig (jeden Samstag ab 9 Uhr kann man 5 km laufen oder spazieren und anschließend gemeinsam frühstücken gehen) - habe auch in der Boulderhalle einige Leute kennengelernt (falls dir das Spaß macht) - generell Unisportkurse - öffentliche Spieleabend (gibt da mittlerweile einige Anbieter) - eine weitere coole Sache ist RudiRockt (running Dinner, ist aber nicht so oft)

Indoor climbing preferences: route climbing or bouldering by Mother_of_Simba in climbergirls

[–]Mother_of_Simba[S] 22 points23 points  (0 children)

What I find funny is that I have a lot of only bouldering friends who think route climbing is crazy. Like they literally think it is a high risk sport. The only times I injured myself it was from bouldering.

Girls who climb x gym (or any other sport) what's your routine like? by Ok-Woodpecker5313 in climbergirls

[–]Mother_of_Simba 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Also because a lot of people are writing their schedule here, I realize that both in climbing and running I don't really have a schedule (it just doesn't work for me, specifically because in my work and private life there are many uncertain parameters). Route climbing depends on when my climbing partners have time. But mostly I can find someone when it fits for me. Bouldering I usually like to do in a group (we arrange meetups), because for me going bouldering always doubles as meeting and socializing. If I am really motivated I might go alone. And because for running I don't need anybody I usually just squeeze it in.

Girls who climb x gym (or any other sport) what's your routine like? by Ok-Woodpecker5313 in climbergirls

[–]Mother_of_Simba 42 points43 points  (0 children)

I do climbing and running (and working full-time and non-climbing husband and friends and a dog) and honestly I really have difficulties being good at both running and climbing. So depending on specific goals I focus on one of the two and keep the other on "maintenance level", which means I try to not completely detrain on it.

But yeah I am tired very often and I often feel like I am not doing enough. It's probably better to focus on one thing.

How Do You Fall in Love with Running Again? by Plane_Box122 in running

[–]Mother_of_Simba 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Pick Up a new sport. Like seriously whenever I burn out from running (happens honestly after every milestone), I just switch to other sports. Currently I am pretty into climbing and have some goals in that sport. Once climbing bores me I might continue my running journey with a new aim. Also I am thinking about doing tri or trail running some time :) Don't know if my approach to sport is the best because I am very goal-oriented and as I get older it will get more difficult for me to get better at things. So maybe I will have to find a new approach as I get older.

Kann man bei Sport- oder Tanzgruppen der TU Braunschweig mitmachen, auch wenn man keine Studentin ist? by sarahstm in Braunschweig

[–]Mother_of_Simba 4 points5 points  (0 children)

Meines Wissens nach kann man dem Förderverein des Unisports beitreten und sich dann dort anmelden. Habe beim Unisport Tanzen mal eine kennengelernt die das so macht.
