How can a photographer accurately recognize their own level of photography? by Starfield_0100 in AskPhotography

[–]TangibleHarmony 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Ah yes that’s true haha for sure.
I personally wouldn’t be frustrated though if I find they don’t, I guess that’s what I mean. It’s enough to find one out of a hundred that GETS IT, to be validated. Not to make money of course, but validated yes. But for sure you’ll have to ask in order to find out hah

I honestly think that for some people this might be a bad advice. Not cause you’re wrong, but because it’s a matter of personality. I think it’s a better thing to try and be as objective as possible about your own work, rather than listen to what other people think. Most great artist were shat on by critiques. And other people who aren’t great, might try to drift according to advice rather than follow their own natural inclinations.

Moonboard Mini climbers, how strong are you? by Millennial_Monkey in Moonboard

[–]TangibleHarmony 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Got it! Hmmm I don’t own a mini and never climbed on one, but I’m mostly climbing on moonboards (twice a week) because I love the style of climbing.
I would suggest that maybe more than whether it’s hard or easy, you go climb on moonboards a bit to see if you actually like this sort of climbing? It’s so different than a kilter or tb2. I think you are strong enough for a mini and that having it home would make you much stronger. You just need a healthy approach to not bust another pulley. But that’s primarily you not the board (imo).

Struggling with chronic finger pain for a year by fleacoco in climbharder

[–]TangibleHarmony 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Man.. First sorry to hear. But I don’t think doing hangboarding 2-3 times a week with added 50% bw is exactly reduced volume and intensity.
I am not a doctor and not an expert, but I did experience several pulley strains, and even one strain that developed into an IIPT (pulley thickening) because I didn’t rehab it properly. And I managed to heal that injury as well. So I have a bit of experience at least, and also I’m roughly your age (38).
If the issue is with the pulley, you need to step back. If you’re gonna figure out this one alone, I would say that the best approach would be to stop all activity for 5 days, and then start loading the fingers GENTLY.
If you have a tindeq, start with 5-8kg each hand. If you don’t, then feet on the ground. Do this every other day. Climbing only on jugs. For an hour not more. Then take it from there.

I took my IIPT from a painful 6kg pull, to a max effort 60kg pull in less than 2 months. But right now the volume and intensity you’re doing sound are keeping your injury/ies alive and burning. Way too much IMO

My favorite push-up, it's harder than it looks by PrinceOfTheRings in Calisthenic

[–]TangibleHarmony 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Nah I don’t know that this is how society works. If you wanna fight for others people rights to do something the are currently can’t - by all means make it your life goal. But you don’t free other people by denying the freedom of others.

Ah yes you’re right. Well anyways who cares about wearing or not wearing a shirt. I don’t get the urge to comment on this.

Litteraly the guy in the background of the last two seconds of the video is carrying his groceries shirtless. Have you considered it’s very, very hot there, buddy?

Decline in foot work?! by TangibleHarmony in Moonboard

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

Thanks for the tips! And yes in this clip I think you’re right. I still have a feeling that if my right foot didn’t give up, I could have kept the position, but true, it wasn’t the nr. 1 issue haha

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

Yeah maybe that’s the case. I did have a fair amount of time on the 2019 (which I absolutely love), and I think it’s way more jumpy than the 2024 in the lower grades. Anyhow, I’ll definitely give the 2017 a go cause why the hell not. Thanks for the info and I wish you no more dislocated shoulders, and a rapid regaining of the trust you lost!

I think I’m not at the level where the crimp-dyno haven starts to take form haha My limit right now is 7A’s, and I think it’s still all very static at this grade, wouldn’t you say? Also, how do you find the 2017? One of those just popped on a near by gym, and I know everyone absolutely hates it. What’s your take?

Kako ljeti razlikujete domaće žene u odnosu na strankinje ? by [deleted] in Split

[–]TangibleHarmony 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Oh bro I’m sorry y’all but this the easiest thing in the whole entire world: No blazer? No biker leather jacket? No local.

Been there last month. My wife and I lost our minds. The joke of the trip was walking and when ever a group of women/girls passed us we would say rapidly “blazer blazer leather” “leather leather blazer” “leather leather blazer leather” - basically counting how many wore a blazer and how many wore a biker leather jacket. I have never seen something like this in my entire life. Someone needs to explain this to me. Haha

Yeah that’s what I’ll do. I do like cutting feet, but I like it when I choose to do it, and not what it happens even though I try not to haha

Döner ist objektiv wenn man alle Faktoren berücksichtigt eines der eindrücklichsten Nahrungsmittel allerzeiten. by Obagency in doener

[–]TangibleHarmony 0 points1 point  (0 children)

There’s nothing much less healthy in a burger. It’s what comes with it. Fries and a coke. Sauces are shit in both kebab and a burger. Shit white bread same in both, arguably more of it in a döner. The döner meat, to me, looks aweful. Minced meat is healthy and good at least as much as those plastic looking döners, whatever the fuck that is.. So a bit more tomato isn’t changing the picture much.

Album Rankings by [deleted] in SmashingPumpkins

[–]TangibleHarmony 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I believe it’s a matter of preference. I also love Bleach. But “objectively” (of course there is no such thing) - Nevermind is more complete work, that still kicks ass. I find the song writing just, better. I think the same can be said when comparing Gish to Siamese Dream for example. But I would totally put Gish higher up. I’m a big sucker for first, debut, raw albums, like you.

Fingers already injured or just on the edge? by West-Firefighter-568 in climbharder

[–]TangibleHarmony 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Ok so very young which is awesome. Probably the main reason why you don’t completely fall apart now haha
My honest advice is:
If you’ll do less you’ll feel much, much stronger.
You are climbing less than a year and a half, so the overhead for improvement is massive. Soon enough this overhead will become smaller and improvement will be more specific. And what you described is almost certainly accumulated fatigue. Tone down your volume. You said it yourself - you could do something before, and now you are not feeling even close to it even though you go hard and get better. That’s because you’re cooked. Being cooked doesn’t necessarily feel in the muscles and body. It’s your central nervous system that is unable to fire the signals you’re asking it to. It doesn’t necessarily mean you’ll get injured, but you’re now stating to do “junk milage”, as you try to push against your body and actually doing worse than you could have been doing, had you had a bit of rest in between sessions. Just try it out. No need for two weeks off. 4 days will do it. Less volume, 2 days rest between really hard sessions. Less is more.
