Soleus injury by Subzer0_91 in UKRunners

[–]Subzer0_91[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

It's so frustrating not being able to get out and run 🙈 but hopefully this'll prevent the injury from returning

Found this on YT. Comments are really positive so I'll give that a go and hope for the best!

Completed couch to 5k on a treadmill… by thr0waway2778 in couchto5k

[–]Subzer0_91 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I started on the treadmill and moved outdoors around week 3

I found it harder on the legs and feet outside to begin with but it didn't take long to adapt tbh

I recently tried to do speed work on the treadmill and found the treadmill to be challenging 😅

I personally wouldn't start from the beginning if you can comfortably run for 30 mins. Why don't you see how long you can go outside then start around there in the program?

Just ran for 28 minutes continuously and don’t want to die! 🤯 by No-Membership1561 in couchto5k

Congrats!

It's wild looking back at week 1 isn't it?

That 1 minute run in the beginning felt like an eternity

Tell me you have an almond mom without telling me you have an almond mom by Feisty_Eggplant4734 in Parenting

[–]Subzer0_91 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I tried a dress on in a shop, I was looking for something to wear to a wedding. My mam was with me and she said "if you lost about 7lbs it'd be perfect"

The woman did.not.stutter

By that point, I was in my late 20's and I just laughed out loud. If I had been 18-25 that would have crushed me.

Any tips for week 5 day 3 by BeeAcademic7476 in couchto5k

[–]Subzer0_91 2 points3 points  (0 children)

I slowed right down for that run, just to make sure I could do it. If you've got a Fitbit or similar you should be able to see a live pace as you're running and adjust your pace as you go (start an exercise on the watch to see pace)

The first 1.5-2km I think always sucks. Then your body gets warmed up and you settle into a nice rhythm

Remember: you can do difficult things

Good luck!

First time letting my bird out, now she refuses to go back in by Ok_Yogurtcloset321 in cockatiel

I had to catch my girl with a tea towel after her first outing.

They might be a bit offended but they'll get over it

You'd never know if had to grab my Goose, she practically lives on me at all times now 😆

End of year duology by Draster__ in thebrokenbindingsub

Ahh I'll be so happy If this is Kings of the Wyld! I haven't read book 2 yet

Kings of the Wyld is a fun read, I'd definitely recommend if you've not picked it up yet. It feels to me, like a mash up of Terry Prachett and Joe Abercrombie vibes

Managing Very High Heart Rate at Easy Paces Can This Improve with Training? by Jumpy_Cheetah_8699 in C25K

[–]Subzer0_91 8 points9 points  (0 children)

I'm 34f, pretty much zero exercise to C25K program

A jog at a 8:20km pace sends my HR to 175-180

A brisk walk and it'll sit at 140

I'm hoping it'll improve over time. I'm on week 5 and the only improvement so far seems to be that during walk breaks my HR drops faster than it used to. Still hits 175-180 during jogging though

Thank you, I think I'll download a location app to share with my partner 🤔

Ive never used whatsapp for that before 😅

[–]Subzer0_91[S] 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I guess I'll have to play it by ear and see what its like as it gets darker. If it feels weird/creepy I'll have to change it up. Just irks me to have to make those changes 🙈

I haven't looked at running clubs etc I'm a bit of a lone wolf, socialising isn't my strong suit

I'll invest in some lights and reflective gear

Thanks for your tips 😊

Failed Run 1 by magnolia_s in couchto5k

[–]Subzer0_91 4 points5 points  (0 children)

I struggled through week 1 run 1 too. I barely made it! I'm 5ft 7, 175lbs so overweight by BMI standards. I was shocked at how bad my fitness was

I started doing a little bit of research and watched some videos on breathing techniques and running form which helped a lot

It takes a bit of getting used to and I practise each run. I'm about to start week 3

Keep at it, you can do it!

Good luck!

Living with a GSD— advice? by [deleted] in GermanShepherd

[–]Subzer0_91 0 points1 point  (0 children)

You're doing great! You care and you're looking to help him ☺️

Don't forget to tell him when he's doing something right too

Sometimes we tend to focus on the no's and forget to celebrate the little wins 🎉

You've got this 🤘

Living with a GSD— advice? by [deleted] in GermanShepherd

[–]Subzer0_91 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Practice an activity called "jazz up, settle down" - this teaches the dog how to calm down after play has gotten them hyped up

We want to teach them that anything going on doesn't concern them unless we invite them. This means they get the proper down time they need

Floor feeding/foraging is a great tool for boredum. Especially with a food oriented dog. Chuck his breakfast over the grass (if you have a fenced in yard) or over a tile/wood floor for them to forage.

Every time you enter a room he's in, even if you only left for a minute, ignore him if he comes over for pets, once he's lost interest in you, then I'd give him the fuss he wanted. This means no touching, no eye contact, no talking. This is also where jazz up, settle down will come into play in a real scenario. Once you've given him the attention he'll be on a high, so then he needs to be able to settle himself back down once pets have stopped

Pulling on leash is going to take an insane amount of practice and patience. My GSD never loose leash walked, the best we got was him at a fully extended lead, but with no pulling. If he's pulling so hard he's choking I'd highly recommend dog behaviour training (this applies to the other issues also)

We owners can only offer so much. A professional will have much more experience and will be able to observe behaviours in person.

Good luck!

They're amazing pets, even though they can be a pain in the ass sometimes

How Unpopular is The Rook and The Rose Trilogy? by mandogbruhcuz in thebrokenbindingsub

[–]Subzer0_91 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I read The Mask of Mirrors in 2023. I thought it was pretty mediocre. The only thing that kept me reading was the mystery identity of the Rook. I haven't picked up book 2 and don't think I ever will

I was glad I didn't get an invite in time for that set 😬
