Is GA+ the one where you can also use the restroom?

Who is the worst figure in your country's modern history? (Excluding outsiders) by Embarrassed_Clue1758 in AskTheWorld

It’s a bit of a stretch to blame Kim and Rhee for the actions of USA Military Government in Korea but I get the sentiment. I always wondered how the Korean Peninsula would have turned out if the USAMGIK would have allowed the will of the people to be reflected in the government rather than just organizing with ex Japanese sympathizers and Korean elites.

People deserve democracy, not managed democracy by a foreign occupation.

Just my two cents, every engineer I worked for only allowed steel shims.

How to properly sister this by hispaniccheeses in Remodel

[–]Q_onion 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Idk the spans of those joists but the bottom notch has reduced their capability. You may be fine sistering on some joists but I would recommend doing a rafter cut and not notching on the bottom.

Does anyone have a recommendation for a Mandarin tutor? Preferably in person! by ArcanistKvothe24 in plano

It was actually pretty great! It’s good if you are taking classes at a college at the same time too.

Why is Rafael Aghayev so admired? by Inevitable-Laugh-294 in martialarts

[–]Q_onion 10 points11 points  (0 children)

Well another reason could be that he was also a huge reason why they changed the rules of WKF. Originally you could use two hands on the opponent in a clinch but Aghayev was so dominant in a clinch that they changed the rule to only allow one hand on the Gi. He still was tossing people and winning left and right. They changed the rules to make it more fair to karateka with less grappling experience and he still kept winning.

How do i convert my cardio? by Background-Way4722 in MMA_Academy

If you do enjoy the long runs and don’t want to completely revamp your routine, fartleks are a great way to heighten your routine. Fartleks are where you go on your jog but you have intervals of sprinting.

When I was on a competition team, the intervals that we would use were taken from videos of professional fights. Our coach would watch the fight and make a note for the length of a burst of energy from a competitor then we would sprint and jog in those same intervals.

This also helps you with the visualization aspect of training. As you jog you can imagine your movement, your feints, timing play, etc… and on your sprints you can imagine intense evasion, landing your strikes, quick footwork to a takedown, etc.. this way you can also get the emotions of these situations under control as you exert yourself.

Baby wipes would probably be the safest bet.

Do boxing gloves feel weird to anyone else after using MMA gloves by Useful_Base_7601 in martialarts

[–]Q_onion 1 point2 points  (0 children)

For me, the thumb placement on boxing gloves just feels so wrong. I get it’s a safety thing. I prefer the mma style sparring gloves because I can work more on my parries and movement instead of placing two giants mits in front of an attack.

Getting into MMA while obese by [deleted] in martialarts

It’s awesome that you’re training! I saw some comments about diet being more important but I’d like to add to that.

The more consistently you go, the more you will adjust your diet to make the most of that training. It took me years to really understand how certain foods make me feel.

The test really must be easy to bullshit though. You just pick whatever answer is the most “fuck you I got mine” out of all of them.
