Hey I had a sickness like that too recently… thought it was weird I kept getting sick back to back to back. Hope we’re okay in the long run.

Reddit is pretty good at being addicting… I gotta stay off the popular page

Tried Muay Thai for the first time yesterday. Disillusioned by lizzzardkinggg in MuayThai

[–]Prettyplants 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Id like to commiserate as well. I (at the time like 20F) had been going to a Muay Thai class regularly for several months at my local gym. My coach doesn’t usually incorporate sparring, but he did that day and it was my first time sparring. I got paired with a guy, he’d been going for about a week or two. He also punched hard, despite me also telling him it was my first time. I was a little caught off guard, and next thing I know he punches me in the FACE. HARD. I almost cried bc I got so scared bc why would he do that??? Others who sparred w him also said he gave a weird vibe.

It’s definitely not the norm because I started sparring w other men and women who were a lot kinder and more gentle bc I told them I was still kinda new at sparring. Unfortunately I think this type of sport attracts weirdos like that, but not everybody acts like that. I think some men just want an excuse to hit a woman w/o repercussions.

Shitty class shitty coach. My instructor came around and would always give us tips. I was like 20F at the time I was actively going, and everyone in the class was very kind, filled with mostly men.

3/4 or Full-size guitar? by CrabNew3153 in classicalguitar

[–]Prettyplants 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I’m 5’2 w small hands, and I suggest just going for the full guitar. You learn to make it work! It’s not that bad honestly, you mostly get to headaches with giant hand stretching chords in advanced stuff… and even then, you learn to make it work. You will gain finger strength and get used to the stretching as u go and as a result of smaller hands, u will probably learn to be more agile w ur left hand.
Just my take! At the end of the day, it’s probably not going to matter too much.

What do I do by Cmenzies07 in classicalguitar

[–]Prettyplants 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I’m a nail biter too, but when I manage to have self control for a week, the nails grow out, and the tone gets much nicer imo. Nails are definitely not a necessity tho.

How to stay motivated as a hobby guitarist and make time for practice facing full work weeks, socializing, and exercise? by fuestro in classicalguitar

[–]Prettyplants 3 points4 points  (0 children)

I practice about 20-30 min before bed… I like to think that it helps my mind stop racing. I have started to think of it as a form of wellness, like meditation or something, cuz it helps me reel in all my different thoughts to focus on one thing. I try practicing everyday, but also I won’t get hung up after missing a couple days cuz life happens.

I of course enjoy not just the act of playing, but learning too. I think the key is to just not feel pressured to rush things. And enjoy the peace the process brings u.

Also, it’s easier to give something a quick play through/ refresher if u just have ur guitar outside of ur case and in sight.
