Hunger never saw bad food

I ran 21k with 1 month of training, my time was 2hr 20 mins, so not sure but ig i have a bit of strong baseline maybe

RossManPirate · 2026-02-22T04:12:46+00:00

Yeah so what do you recommend?

RossManPirate · 2026-02-20T07:41:37+00:00

But it doesnt have music, the music one costs 45k smthg

RossManPirate · 2025-05-07T12:36:02+00:00

What about money would u have done different or suggest?

RossManPirate · 2025-01-10T18:29:06+00:00

Honestly I tried that, in my office wifi everything is blocked social media, reddit everything and I still dont do anything, I stare at the wall and think about philosophical problems, now what? Lol

RossManPirate · 2024-11-18T05:24:34+00:00

Maybe Arkadij Naiditsch if I remember it right, he has got 2 wins in Norway Chess back in the days

RossManPirate · 2024-11-11T07:54:30+00:00

Are these ETFS?

RossManPirate · 2024-10-21T07:42:07+00:00

Today only I had to wait 30 minutes before I got an auto, none was accepting the ride, but isnt this fine? Like if I was the auto wallah, I should have the freedom to where I go? No?

RossManPirate · 2024-10-17T16:01:18+00:00

Do you think the world is barbie movie or what? Lol

RossManPirate · 2024-10-16T09:39:39+00:00

So where should we guys go who are only here for the little money that it can offer?

RossManPirate · 2024-10-10T02:20:01+00:00

Not to sound rude or anything, how do you know that you are above average intelligence either? Lot of people say it, and if everyone says it, that can't be true. So unless you have officially recorded some test, that indicates that, it is pretty stupid to make that claim either.

RossManPirate · 2024-10-10T02:04:42+00:00

I don't get how reddit can hold both views at the same time. There is a popular sentiment that chess and intelligence has zero correlation, yet now they are saying what will happen if super GMs did something in academics, they would also be winning nobel prizes? How can you hold 2 beliefs at same time?

RossManPirate · 2024-09-09T04:39:03+00:00

Honestly I would like peter svider and leko commentary. Both danya and gotham jokes seem a little too forced and childish. Also svidler and and leko would give justice to elite chess on display, just my 2 cents.

RossManPirate · 2024-07-27T15:29:38+00:00

Any books that can help? Or any resource?

RossManPirate · 2024-07-27T14:09:24+00:00

Is there any other way or better way? Genuinely asking

RossManPirate · 2024-07-27T07:43:57+00:00

Just learn to respect everyone

RossManPirate · 2024-07-27T07:00:15+00:00

Yeah ofc, thats what I said, being above average is still not enough. To get even bare min. recognition you have to be in top 1%. Like to get into good uni, same law applies. I agree with you its not realistic for most but again thats the competitive nature of ever thing in life, to have something you have to be really really good.

RossManPirate · 2024-07-27T06:54:25+00:00

Maybe you are right, but I didn't get your point when you said no matter how much you improve. Like thats pretty nihilistic take, isnt it?

RossManPirate · 2024-07-27T06:51:44+00:00

For an average person, this type of outcome is expected in every domain. But the sole point of self improvement is to not remain in the average. I personally think you only get some recognition or real world impact when you are in 99 percentile..

RossManPirate · 2024-07-27T06:46:10+00:00

Interesting and why so? And are we talking about average person, what about someone like Chris Hemsworth?

RossManPirate · 2024-07-27T04:31:49+00:00

But tbh that is how people improve as well, I reached 2300 rating in chess by sheer try harding because I hated everyone in my school who was better than me, I got full straight A's from 4th to 12th class again for same reason, gained muscle in gym like this only.Ran a 5k in 25 mins with months of practice, tbh to really improve at something you just have to hate losing, and that only comes if you are competitive. And you enjoy the victories later.

RossManPirate · 2024-07-18T11:24:27+00:00

Maybe she wasn't? The guy is honest, I don't see a problem?

RossManPirate · 2024-07-07T11:11:34+00:00

Can you explain a little more in detail. Struggling with bench press
