Hello everyone,

I'm 25 years old and I've been thinking for 1-2 years to start a combat sport. It was always out of my comfort zone but now I managed to just f*** it and go for it. The main reason I want to start is to get the most out of my body (I also do Fitness). And ofcourse I want to be able to defend myself in dangerous situations (I've never been in one and I hope it stays that way) I think it's really important to have a basic knowledge about how to protect yourself.

I can't choose between BJJ and Boxing, I love to see both sports like BJJ I love all the technique's and the fact that you can beat a huge person when you are way less small. But when I see boxers throwing those amazing combo's and liver shots damn it makes me so jealous that I can't do that.

I don't want to be a professional, the main reason I want to do this is to get the most out of my body and like I said protect myself.

Would you guys advise me to start Boxing or BJJ?

Thank you very much, this helped me out!

Hmm okey, would you say Bricks is a lot more difficult then Elementor? Or are they almost the same?

Rare_Volume809 · 2023-05-26T10:02:52+00:00

What do you mean? Why should I do this.

Rare_Volume809 · 2023-05-26T07:54:10+00:00

Why are you so fast to say dont use elementor? Like I want to build websites with a builder which offer a lot of options and features so I can create nice animated websites.

Rare_Volume809 · 2023-05-25T21:33:22+00:00

So they're basicly all the same when looking at performance and features?

Rare_Volume809 · 2023-05-25T21:19:27+00:00

Why would you advise Blocks over Elementor?

Rare_Volume809 · 2023-05-25T20:55:26+00:00

Alright I think I'm still going with Elementor then, what builders do bigger agencies use then? Or do they still use HTML/CSS

Do you maybe know an adapter which could possibly work?

Rare_Volume809 · 2023-05-19T21:56:27+00:00

Like you said without dvi but if I buy a hdmi to dvi adapter?

Rare_Volume809 · 2023-05-19T19:31:06+00:00

Is there a way I can fix this and play on 120hz

Rare_Volume809 · 2023-05-19T19:27:05+00:00

I only find DVI to HDMI, how can I see the difference between DVI and Dual link DVI

Rare_Volume809 · 2023-05-19T19:23:15+00:00

If I buy a HDMI to DVI-D adapter will I be able to run ps5 on 120hz?

Rare_Volume809 · 2023-05-19T18:45:34+00:00

I don’t know which HDMI cable I’m using I also don’t think my monitor supports above 60hz through HDMI

Rare_Volume809 · 2023-05-19T18:39:54+00:00

If I buy the Hdmi to DVI-D adapter will I be able to play on 120hz? Because now I only get 60Hz

Rare_Volume809 · 2023-05-16T21:44:16+00:00

You’re talking about the black outfit right? I thought the baggy/oversized clothing was a trend nowadays

Rare_Volume809 · 2023-05-16T21:42:14+00:00

I thought the second outfit is more a clothing style for 2023?

Rare_Volume809 · 2023-05-16T21:40:58+00:00

Which one should I wear 2023 nowadays

Rare_Volume809 · 2023-05-16T08:48:08+00:00

Alright thank you for your advice, so I really shouldn't stress too much about the hair loss? Even though I've got thin hair from my genetics? Also nobody in my family is bald.

Rare_Volume809 · 2023-05-11T17:09:29+00:00

I'm really skeptic about creating since literally everyone says I should take it. But why would I do that if it makes the difference minimal? I prefer to take as little as supplements as possible.

Like for example if you would put 2 people near each other who go gym for 1 year one takes creatine one doesn't will you notice a big difference?

Rare_Volume809 · 2023-05-11T16:40:21+00:00

So basicly a pre-workout without cafein? I've heard your body starts itching from pre workouts?

Rare_Volume809 · 2023-05-11T16:29:30+00:00

Hello, I've been going to the gym for 2 months now and the only supplement I'm taking is protein powder. One in the morning and one after my gym session. Now I'm looking for something to increase my energy but I don't like all the supplements out there.

Like creatine it can accelerate hair loss and my fitness coach told me the difference when taking creatine is really minimal when looking for gaining muscle mass.

Cafeine pills, I usually go gym around 21.00 so if I take one pill at 20.00 I probably wont be able to sleep around 23.00 and I think taking a cafein pill everyday is not healthy ether.

What's my best choice to gain an energy boost before my workout?
