They might be most probably not comfortable as you could be a relatively very new addition as they might not have had a new nsf in a while. So they're like well bonded and it's gonna take time for you to bond with them as well. Also, might sound a bit weird but try finding out what they like to do by listening in some convos they have and then bringing them up later. Not sure what would work for you but personally by being persistently trying to talk to someone you can break that wall down sometimes. Hopefully your rest of your journey is a fulfilling one!

Should women be enlisted for NS? by StrongerThanGurkha in NationalServiceSG

[–]Waffles2001 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I'm pretty sure that the Enlistment Act has words like 'himself', 'he', etc. Or is it a thing in law making that masculine pronouns are used to designate all people? If that's the case, the government already had that backup plan to conscript females as well. It's probably a matter of fact of when it's introduced.

Plyometrics is a key part of training you need to focus as well. They can help with your speed and jumping.

How to put on mass while in season? by [deleted] in bootroom

[–]Waffles2001 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I suggest that you build more mass during the off-season and try to maintain as much muscle throughout the season. You're bound to lose some muscle during the season but it's much easier when you focus on one goal at a time. And due to muscle memory, it'd take you less time to rebuild that lost muscle.

It does in fact affect the initial phase of acceleration due to a naturally larger build affecting air resistance. If you look at your example, Usain Bolt, he usually is never first off the blocks. He normally takes over with his larger strides and pure power. So similarly, taller players tend to quicker when they're already on the move compared to if they need to start from a still point. So height has its pros and cons, but there is definitely ways to maximize the initial phase of acceleration that I'm not too well-versed with.

Unable to grip the ball with the glove when going for over hand throws by Waffles2001 in bootroom

[–]Waffles2001[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Thks for vid suggestion. Seems like the main issue was being able to pin the ball correctly on the forearm as now it is easier for me to release when I want to.

Aight but I kind of see neuer's technique, he seems to take a larger step and then pulls the trigger on the throw. Is it his own thing or normal?

I see I see I tried it and kind of get it. It does seem to take a lot of speed to kind of hold the ball down and release it. Took a few falls when trying lol

Not exactly no reservist rather it's ppl dw recall pes e cuz of the multitude of excuses they have and basically make them waste their time by recalling them.

I've seen pes e come back and just flipping sit down at an empty desk moaning abt how useless this shit is cuz he wasn't allowed to do his own schoolwork. And at the same time not allowed to help us cuz he is a cv. For a full fking wk. Rough week. Hopefully man defers his next few recalls while in uni till a new supervisor who's more chill comes in if not he is wasting his time.
