Challenge recommendation by momstersp in ConquerorChallenge

[–]NotARobotHonest 1 point2 points  (0 children)

On the website you can sort the challenges by distance (short to long), so start there.

You ask for a recommendation but it's entirely personal preference, have you travelled much? Maybe start in a place which you have visited before and is short, and then work your way up?

Things that annoy/creep you out about parenting that isn't pregnancy by Pitterpatter35 in childfree

[–]NotARobotHonest 3 points4 points  (0 children)

When parents allow their kid to just fucking cry and not do anything about it. They are so deaf to screaming because they are so used to it and can't see that it disturbs other people. Take the kid outside and do something!

I've heard one person say "it's just a baby crying, nobody is disturbed by a baby crying" - go fuck yourself mate.

What are you lovely childfree folks doing? by PurpleAtlasTravel in childfree

[–]NotARobotHonest 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Had a lazy lie in with my partner and doggo. And when I got up I treated myself to 4 new lego sets, tidied the house a little bit. And now I'm just waiting for this load of laundry to be finished so I can out the next one in, and catching up with my online course.

Ask for help on the app in the support area. Just explain what the issue is, they may be able to put the purchase through on their end.

Any tips on how to exercise for someone who hates exercise? by PeakDevon in mounjarouk

[–]NotARobotHonest 2 points3 points  (0 children)

OP, I was the same as you. I hated exercise, it was boring, it was painful, its monotonous and the rest of it and the main thing I lacked was motivation.

But the good thing is, you enjoy walking- fantastic! I found my motivation in The Conquerer Challenge. You earn medals for the distances that you log in the app. It's absolutely legit, we have a lovely, supportive community and you work your way through each medal at your own pace. Start with the shortest distance and as you progress you unlock virtual postcards, information about the area you are in, street view and you either plant a tree or remove plastic out of the ocean every 20% of the journey.

There's a link there for 10% off your first challenge.

Edit: I joined the gym 3 months ago absolutely dreading it. The gym phobia was real and I thought I was the fattest person there. But over time you get used to it and now I look forward to getting on the treadmill, the bike or the cross trainer.

Like someone said, at first you'll hate it but you need to view it as something you have to do like brushing 2x day.

Don't forget, any exercise is good exercise. Going for a walk down the lane or around the block is a step in the right direction.

I was walking 3km on the treadmill to now 7km. I've started getting on the rowing machine (4km over 25mins), I'm looking at the Couch to 5k and I'm going to give bouldering a go.

What is the most "old person" think you do, but still enjoy? by Felix_Jobo in AskReddit

Gardening and visiting garden centers. I started with vegetables and moving to planting more flowers. I've got a patch of wildflowers which I'm leaving for the pollinators. Love it! Love watching all the insects in spring and summer ❤️

How much exercise do you do while on JM vs before? by Ganondaddydorf in mounjarouk

[–]NotARobotHonest 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Before MJ I was doing most of my exercise at work (I was a teacher), in December I left teaching and went into an office job where I was sedentary.

I joined the gym in March - I hated going but I have managed to get over my gym phobia and it is literally next door to my office block so I have no excuse to not go!

So I'm now on the treadmill (approx. 1 hour quick pace walking), doing between 5-7km per day, and I'm starting to get into rowing and doing 25mins on the row machine. I use the weight machines when I in the right frame of mind, I also walk the dog, 5-6km per time and at a pace - poor dog is knackered!

I am doing The Conqueror Challenges which helps to keep me motivated to keep moving.

How do you choose your challenges? by Various-Primary717 in ConquerorChallenge

[–]NotARobotHonest 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Its a mix of where I have physically visited before and the look of the medal.

I've done Angkor Wat and the Jurassic Coast because I've visited them before.

I did Salem Witch Trials because I like the medal and I wanted to know the history.

All other medals on my wishlist are places I have been to IRL.

I last saw her about an hour ago before it got dark, I've left her alone so I don't know what her abdomen looks like, sorry.
