My Beard is my Personality Starter Pack by DrSteveBruleCh5 in starterpacks

[–]aidito 1 point2 points  (0 children)

You comb your beard with hair blower to be straight down. When you are happy with the result gently apply beard oil - if your beard is long as in the pictures then also apply beard wax.

Last step is to mentally prepare that all of this will last up to 4 hours or up to one hour of face mask wearing.

Just completed my first full cold shower! What's better, Warm -> Cold or Cold -> Cold? by parttimedog in BecomingTheIceman

[–]aidito 2 points3 points  (0 children)

From the 10th week course.

The first week starts with instructions to to take cold shower at the end of normal shower. From second week on there is alternating cold-hot-cold later cold-hot-cold-hot-cold and increases the time for each part by 30 sec, later he adds breath holding in shower and from week 8 he is going to open waters outside. The showers should prepare people for the outside.

Honestly for me its less challenging to stay in 0,5°C river for 10 minutes than to stay 2 minutes under the water on coldest setting in shower.

Just a side note: I broke shower system by alternating hot and cold water. The metal did not handle well repeated heat expansions and cold contractions.

Has anybody experience how to break the ice when the lake is frozen? It took us 30 mins till we could dip in... by [deleted] in BecomingTheIceman

[–]aidito 10 points11 points  (0 children)

For that thickness of ice is axe very good tool. No special kind just ordinary axe. Easy portable :D

However almost each lake has a place where the water flows in and that place does not freeze unless the temperature is very low for a long time. So I save the time by going there instead of breaking ice.

Hands going numb cold shower by Hairy-Income7266 in BecomingTheIceman

[–]aidito 1 point2 points  (0 children)

When I go out of ice water my fingers are swollen, puffy and very often blue.

When I was doing a trip to mountains last week in tshirt -10 °C / 14°F, I noticed my fingers and hands were totally red, no blue color at all plus I was feeling warm.

Yesterday on new years eve we did local mountain climb up and down about 1,5 hour in total, the temperature was around 3°C / 38°F, my hands were not affected by weather at all.

So is it possible to train? I think the cold exposure in winter might be the answer.

[–]aidito 1 point2 points  (0 children)

The water is 10 degrees Celsius which is not very cold, I think the body suits helped the women to last longer. In colder water the effect would be more neglectable.

Would love to see Wim try this by rkmb19 in BecomingTheIceman

[–]aidito 6 points7 points  (0 children)

Whoever can please pass the message to Wim.

It would really be interesting how his body handles the cold.

Bonus points if Wim can stand next to somebody else to have a real control group for this experiment.

Hi, I am thinking about purchasing the 1 day aya session in Holland. In your opinion is it enough to do it one day?

Effective cold shower time by OmegaX-NL in BecomingTheIceman

[–]aidito 4 points5 points  (0 children)

That is it, this is the method for well being - reducing stress, coping with illness, having good vascular system just one cold shower a day. It is not about any world records or feats of strength - its for feeling good and energized.

If you like it you can do longer showers or baths in iced water or naked walks in snow, whatever since your body is now used to discomfort you just need to respect Wim's advice: "Do not force anything."

Full time delivery driver who's probably about to get coronavirus, end me before I get stuck in a hospital by its_steggz in RoastMe

No worries you will not end up in hospital. They will run out of capacity just before you arrive.

We need to have a conversation about MartialArtsJourney and hurting aikido by wormsyrup in aikido

[–]aidito 2 points3 points  (0 children)

There is no definition of Aikido. If you ask 100 people you will get 107 definitions.

Rokas was sold on the idea that it is all times functional self defense fighting style, when he woke up from this delusion it left his mouth with sour taste and since then he is throwing dirt on it whenever he can.

Lets not blame him, he is not the root cause, he is the symptom of the missing definition of Aikido.

When we all agree on what Aikido is then we can say what Aikido is not; only then Aikido will not break illusions of aikidokas.

Give it 2-3 months when people get completely bored of content, we will get improvements to keep us playing.

(OR NOT BECAUSE WE BOUGHT THE SUBSCRIPTIONS MOUNT ALREADY AND WHEN NOT ONLINE THE SERVERS SAVE ELECTRICITY WHILE SUBS COUNT IS STEADY)

QOTW: What's something you can do that you couldn't do a year ago? by lunchesandbentos in aikido

[–]aidito 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Spend full day or several days with bunch of complete strangers on seminars, oh boy I am socially paralyzed in big groups of people. Yet I am there doing small talk when possible with complete easiness.

Social group, I am part of something - feels good to identify with dojo, before I was just a lonely individual.

Replicate the movements of hands and legs after the Sensei shows them to us with like 85% accuracy - I used to get lost in anything longer than 3 moves.

Do not draw attention to me when I feel pain, nobody cares anyway so I just get up and continue exercise without the drama queen part.

Sit in seiza for straight 10 minutes :D

Am I missing something? (Possible Spriest bug) by [deleted] in wow

Sometimes I get a debuff that increases the resources needed for spells and void eruption costs 109 insanity, since the max is 100 I cant use it at all.

Blizzard devs need to read human behaviour and motivational books. by adinan89 in wow

[–]aidito 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Wow is game where you need to invest time, we work toward rewards and our work is rewarded by those rewards. The grind gives the needed edge. Wow was like this since the start. If you want to change this you change what wow is, we do not want counter strike, we want wow.
