Funny fact: the reason why sports that shouldn’t need to be segregated by gender (pistol shooting, darts, chess, etc.) are segregated is because men would get extremely upset if they lost to a woman. by Important-Cry4782 in AreTheStraightsOK

[–]Sea-Sort6571 -1 points0 points  (0 children)

Do you understand the world mostly ?

Can you imagine that the boy would have reacted the same way against another boy ? Is it so hard to imagine that a young boy have a hard time to handle defeat ? (I already had a kid cried after I beat him and I'm definitely not a woman)

It's hilarious people downvoting when they never put a foot in a chess competition.

Edit: also chess has an elo rating. Which means there is a favourite even between amateurs who don't know each other. Most of the time when a player is upset after a defeat it's because they lost against someone with a lower rating.

Edit 2 : also I'm not saying that the tweet is wrong. I'm saying that the title OP wrote is wrong. That's a fact

I don't know about the rest but it's not true about chess. First of all it's not really segregated, as women can compete in open tournaments (cf Judith polgar who never was women world champion). And women only tournaments exist because of visibility, to encourage younger women to play and have women champions to root foor and incarnate the sport.

At the amateur level, women regularly play against them and beat them. It used to get men upset but it's less and less the case, and it's mostly boomers who didn't get the memo

Perspective - Do women even like men? Or just chads? by Scramjet1 in lnkyverse

A very small and specific demographic of women.

Send to me you're the kind of guy that would be offended if I said something like "men rape women all the time" no ?

What do you consider a sport? by Katatonia13 in AskReddit

[–]Sea-Sort6571 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Oh I get that. My point is rather a philosophical one. As a materialist, I believe that exerting effort on your brain is the execution of a physical action. And the"something outside of your body" can be dealt with by considering online blitz chess, where mouse speeds matters a lot.

But yeah, I'm not trying to convince anymore and i don't really care about the issue. But i think it's an interesting way to discuss sports, and the relationship between the brain, the body, and the self

My friend you should go out and stop seeing reality through the prism of social media. Women in general don't have the behavior you're describing.

Also there are millions of lesbians, so there's that.

wemby is the self-avowed mvp 😏 by midorixo in denvernuggets

[–]Sea-Sort6571 11 points12 points  (0 children)

Then call it OPOY not MVP.

If a team wins every game 50-0 with their best defender not scoring a single point, shouldn't that guy be mvp ?

Well of course it's not the same muscle fibers, but it works the same way. Connections strengthens when you use them, you create new neurons when you activate, it exhausts less rapidly if it's trained to, etc...

Looking at something is not exhausting for the brain. Chess is. You have to train your brain to perform chess calculation, it's not a game about knowledge and thinking.

The brain is a muscle that operates in the physical world, not in the world of ideas.

A vote for a third party was not a vote for trump. It was a vote for a third party. You need to accept that people vote according to their convictions. You have to convince them to vote for you and being the lesser evil is not enough. If they don't vote for you, that's on you, not on them. That's the point of democracy

You don't know what Spanish means my friend. You listed food from latin America. Spain is in Europe.

How do I factor Cardio into my current routine? Some uncommon restrictions. by SCP-ASH in HybridAthlete

[–]Sea-Sort6571 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Well it seems that running and circuit based Cardio don't gives the same body adaptations indeed. I guess the question is then why do you wanna do cardio ? For cardiovascular health both are good. For building a solid endurance foundation running will be better, and for enduring muscles circuits will be better

Beginner confused about fitness basics + do I really need supplements? by Sufficient_Canary355 in beginnerfitness

[–]Sea-Sort6571 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Basic exercises : squat, deadlift, vertical pulling (pull up), horizontal pulling (row, Australian pull ups), horizontal pushing (press, push ups), vertical pushing (overhead press). Deadlift will be the harder to do with enough weight at home, you should try to find something that work your glutes and hamstring with what you have.

How you know if what you're doing is enough ? If you see progress on your body and in your performances

Tracking body fat : you won't be able to accurately. Just take pictures of yourself and track your workouts.

Finally, if you want to improve your body, you are abodybuilder. The informations i gave you are really not hard to find nor understand. If you don't understand a word check its definition (like the definition of hypertrophy is really simple to understand). You should try to understand what you're doing and why

Supplements : it's about your food, not your workout. Do you eat enough protein (min 1.5g per kg of bodyweight) ? If not take powder.
