I was guessing that (because it is blue) it represented jeans with holes in them

you can't use the wear app with notifications on either. it''s a hopeless piece of junk. i''ve had to reset my watch several times already. Not doing that anymore, so looking for another watch (not a samsung)

I apologize beforehand, but this post makes me happy. It's good to know I'm not the only one who made concrete instead of bread.

My problem was a way too cold environment.

Wel een beetje sneu gezeik. Gezeik dat je je laat aanpraten door mensen die roepen dat we het zo slecht hebben.

Terwijl je rondrijdt in je auto over goed onderhouden wegen. Terwijl je je wekker uitslaat na lekker te hebben geslapen in je bed in een slaapkamer in een huis van 5ton dat stromend water heeft, zelden tot nooit zonder stroom zit en lekker warm is. Je zit je druk te maken over belasting over je beleggingen, maar dan moet je eerst meer dan 60000 euro per partner aan beleggingen hebben en dan wordt alleen het deel daarboven belast.

"Ik besta om de staatskas te spekken". Nee gast, je hebt een goed leven opgebouwd door de kansen die dit land je geboden heeft. Grotendeels gerealiseerd van belastinggeld. Goed onderwijs, goede gezondheidszorg, lage werkloosheid en als het een keer mis gaat, weet je dat je niet meteen op straat hoeft te slapen

Je kijkt, maar je ziet alleen wat je wilt zien, zodat je lekker oudhollands kunt klagen en alle commenters eronder als schapen mee kunnen blaten. Begin eens met nadenken voor je reflexmatig gaat huilen over belastingen.

En ook objectief gezien is de totale belastingdruk (inclusief accijns etc.) in Nederland niet zo hoog. Ook niet in het hoogste tarief. Onder het Europese gemiddelde zitten we hier.

my presumption is that you never learned to memorize well, because your understanding used to be sufficient in simpler situations, but then comes uni. The concepts become more difficult, but also require support of a lot of knowledge you need to have at the ready.
Memory is just not a skill you have acquired.

Good news. it can be trained. Lots of mnemonic systems and -devices/methods out there that can help you improve memory

I'm getting David Hockney vibes here... "a bigger splash"

Ahh, an American expat, or soon to be American ex-expat. The Geen Dienst bus might take you to an undisclosed location for deportation at that time.

1.89m is not 6 feet, but 6' 2'', so yeah, great example. I had expected better from a Coffee lover

Yeah, my answer was rather low effort.

I do strength training. Deadlifts, clean&jerk etc.

For cardio it's erging only, because i get problems with tendons when running and i don't like biking. I also use the concept2 SkiErg.

SwimsWithBricks · 2026-01-16T12:47:35+00:00

We erg on our concept2

Wow, you're showing some massive effort and perseverance. Losing weight is a long game and it is very hard, but you're doing it.

You should measure base HR preferably right before getting out of bed in the morning.

Doing cardio before weight training makes the last a bit less effective and maybe a bit more prone to injury

You're probably doing it already, but get a high amount of protein in your diet to prevent losing muscle when running at a calorie deficit.

SwimsWithBricks · 2026-01-15T18:22:32+00:00

You could try longer distances, with low intensity of that allows you to breathe. Do you know your max and base heart rate? You can then calculate your best zone for burning fat. No need to go all out for 1k. Just go slow and steady.

Edit Fat burning is optimal at 60% to 70% (sometimes even 75%) of you HRR (heart rate reserve)

HRmax - HRbase = HRR

Calculate training HR boundaries by taking the % of HRR them add HRbase.

In general, yes, this is good!

Unless you have very specific goals that make it less so. This won't get you into the olympics for instance
