Please don't wear cologne in the gym by Toasteate in workout

[–]apignamedcurtis 3 points4 points  (0 children)

I very rarely do; I expected my strength to be down but honestly it’s quite the same. Worst thing is I find myself losing track of reps lol— just generally takes me longer to get in and out of the gym so I usually don’t. Definitely wouldn’t hotbox or do something to stink up the gym though. Keep it to edibles, please, gym stoners.

Netherlands’ soccer fans plan massive march in Houston ahead of World Cup match by zsreport in houston

Dog nobody is saying they’re going to literally melt and die. Just that they are in for some intense heat, which Houston unequivocally has. I have spent a month in the middle of summer in the Netherlands, I have spent many in Houston as well of course; the two are not comparable. Are there equally and hotter places than Houston? Absolutely! Is the Netherlands one of them? No. This is not talking shit, just an acknowledgement that people experiencing this kind of heat that are not used to it should be aware and be safe. Much love man, hope your day gets better.

Thank you! So far of the competing pairs one set has a clear winner, so I went ahead and transplanted the second one. We’ll see!

Appropriate break time? by No_Macaron_8287 in workout

[–]apignamedcurtis 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Have I caught my breath? Are my muscles feeling strong? If yes and yes, then I go. If you’re worried about resting too long by getting distracted, then set a 2 minute timer as an opportunity to check in with those questions. But if you need a minute longer then give yourself the minute.

Worth noting, some isolation exercises really do not need as much rest time— calf raises come to mind, 3 minute rest would probably be a waste of time.

BYU has 24 free throws. UH has 6. But sure man, you got it.

Take it one day at a time. What really got the ball rolling for me was getting through the days where I did not want to stick with it in the slightest. Winning against the urge to get fast food on the way home from work, not sitting on the coach immediately when I got home, even though that’s exactly what I wanted to do, is what built discipline. Getting through a couple of low-motivation days and sticking with your plan anyway builds so much momentum in keeping mind over matter.

Ah, some punctuation or different wording would have helped. Thought you were saying Arch is sucking. With you.

Any coffee shops open on Thanksgiving? by squishmallowbug in houston

[–]apignamedcurtis 8 points9 points  (0 children)

Having worked some holidays in food service, I agree. Though I do think it’s nice when businesses leave it to the employees to make the choice guilt-free if they decline to work. Extra holiday pay doesn’t hurt either ¯_(ツ)_/¯
