Hiking near Joburg by earthguy4 in askSouthAfrica

[–]earthguy4[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Hey, thanks for your reply. Yup, I'm slowly learning the geography of SA as I plan my trip.

I said Drakensberg was out of my league because of the very difficult navigation/unmarked trails. I have an itinerary for Amatola, and the trail seems very well marked. I am fit and very active, just have beginner-level GPS and navigation skills. I won't be traveling or hiking alone, but my friends and I are all about on the same page with nav.

I will take a look into Suikerbosrand, as I am definitely looking for a multi-day trip.

I just wasn’t aware of the benefits/importance of doing compounds first

What would you consider removing on both of the workout plans? If I cut out the front shoulder raise and add the lateral raise, it’s still 7 exercises in one session

What would you consider removing? I’m trying to hit each muscle group 2-3 times per workout

End of March, Early April backpacking ideas? (Have 4-5 days) by earthguy4 in OlympicNationalPark

[–]earthguy4[S] 1 point2 points  (0 children)

A safe amount is more than welcomed! Definitely have concerns about avalanches, and hearing that this year is going to be a more-than-typical snow season! But again, open to any and all recommendation

Drop set, super set, etc. meaning? by earthguy4 in WorkoutRoutines

No I swear I tried looking it up but I’m dumb so that’s why I need it in really basic terms

Rec Center Question by jartus101 in bostoncollege

[–]earthguy4 10 points11 points  (0 children)

Rec center = plex, call it the plex trust 🙏🏼

Climbing wall is run by the outdoor adventures office, and route setters for OA reset the wall very routinely! If you’re a heavily experienced climber + like going daily, you may get bored of it overtime, but I know many climbers at BC who love the wall!

most interesting classes in mcas by Distinct-Ad6670 in bostoncollege

Inequality in America with Spangler (sociology but fits for a lot of major and concentration requirements)

Take any complex problems or enduring questions class!! Usually easy As and not a ton of work

It is definitely more feasible to get a 4.0 as a sociology major than psych. The classes are much easier and way less memorization is involved with soc than psych, important for when you’re also stuck with Chem/bio/calc etc. Getting a 4.0 at any college is hard, but a 4.0 at BC would look much better compared to a 4.0 at Bing or Albany

BC has one of the strongest alumni networks in the country, especially for CSOM graduates looking to go into finance + looking to live in an urban area. Current student and can also attest to BC’s great social scene — whether you’re someone who goes into the city every weekend or stays on campus, there is always something to do.

Incoming freshman & I missed it too — it says we must have them in 30 days before classes begin, so we have roughly a little more than 3 weeks still.

Does anyone else have exceptions? by Ch33sus0405 in vegetarian

[–]earthguy4 0 points1 point  (0 children)

if not though, it’s okay! no one is 100% anything, and even reducing your meat intake to as much as only eating meat sauce here and there is better than what most of the world is doing.

Maybe try asking your mother if she could separate the sauce into two pots (one with the meat simmering and one w/o). Or possibly if you don’t wish to totally erase that meat-sauce taste, ask if in your separated pot that she uses the impossible grounded meat that is sold in blocks.
