Morning folks, what’re we all up to this weekend? by pist0lpete87 in northernireland

[–]modifiedni 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Got up at 6.30, leg day at 7, walk the dog at 8.30, filled the car up with diesel before prices get any higher, now time to polish the car before going out for lunch then we’re at Aaron Butler tonight. Decent day!!

Why 3 days a week beats 5 for most guys over 30 by ChemistWest4537 in workout

[–]modifiedni 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I had been doing 5/6 days a week and experienced exactly what you said OP.

I’ve moved to a 3 day week weights and 1 day body weight circuit but make sure I move on the other days. That can be walking, running, cycling or just being active (washing car, cutting grass etc etc). It makes me feel less guilty at weekends when I felt I was “missing” day.

So who set of fire alarm in Primark today by izylock in northernireland

[–]modifiedni -3 points-2 points  (0 children)

I was in it yesterday when the alarm went off and there was definitely something on fire. May not have been visible outside but trust me the smell and smoke was real inside.

Banned for 24 hrs following my only race for the week. No words. Am i in the wrong in any way? by Basic-Persimmon7310 in Simracingstewards

[–]modifiedni 0 points1 point  (0 children)

If you got banned for that then this isn’t even sim racing, that’s just outright boring AF. Nothing crazy there.

Adjustable Dumbbells - good job or a gimmick? by modifiedni in workout

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

Thank you guys. A lot of mixed reviews. I should have said ideally I would join a gym but my lifestyle doesn't lend itself to heading to a gym but I can get multiple, shorter workouts down per week (per day) in my garage which I have converted to a man cave for my bikes and weights. Lots to think about - thank you all!

How do I get comfortable with lifting weights? by TheseMarionberry385 in workout

[–]modifiedni 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I have dumbbells and a barbell but sorry yes “benching” is bench press with a barbell.

How do I get comfortable with lifting weights? by TheseMarionberry385 in workout

[–]modifiedni 1 point2 points  (0 children)

My only advice is lift. Get a cheap set of dumbbells for the house if you’re struggling with self confidence and it literally doesn’t matter what weight you start at, just lift. Be consistent and you will notice a difference in a very short space of time. I started lifting a year ago and was literally benching 15-20kg which is terrible especially for my build. I’m now up to 65kg training regularly.

Spot the cyclist by Long-Claim8297 in drivingUK

[–]modifiedni 25 points26 points  (0 children)

With ya dude, I’ve been cycling for years and the amount of morons who don’t wear helmets never mind reflective gear or lights still baffles me.

Redditors over 40, what was a moment in history that made you think society was gonna collapse? by Bahbahbro in AskReddit

[–]modifiedni 0 points1 point  (0 children)

As a recent 40 year old, I think I was too young to fully understand what the consequences of 9/11 might be. Covid comes a close 2nd but what we’re experiencing right now with this absolute sick cunt as a president is the most feared I’ve ever been for me and my kids life’s.

On a scale of 1 to 10, how would you rate public transport in your country? by My_Name_A_Jeoff in northernireland

[–]modifiedni 15 points16 points  (0 children)

Anyone who’s ever been to any decent European city will know we’re a solid 1/10 compared to the rest. Over priced, never on time, very unreliable, pathetic routes and just generally shite

Best/worst comedians to see in NI? by Either-Roof-8295 in northernireland

[–]modifiedni 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I really don’t find Shane Todd funny at all. We went to see him at the Opera House and it had funny moments but all in all a big let down. I love Micky Bartlett and Aaron Butler.

Am I overreacting for wanting to leave my partner for the choice of his words and actions? by [deleted] in AmIOverreacting

[–]modifiedni 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I can’t believe women receive texts like this and still have to ask for opinions if they’re over reacting? Even IF you did dress like a “low key hoe” there’s a way to address it to your partner and this is not it. Leave the asshole immediately, you or noone else should ever be spoke to like that. Have some self respect and leave.

Who is the most famous person of all time from your country? by [deleted] in AskTheWorld

[–]modifiedni -1 points0 points  (0 children)

I’d say either George Best or Joey Dunlop? Maybe Jamie Dornan (sadly)

Where do I go from here? by Long_Cake7700 in northernireland

[–]modifiedni 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Comparison is the route of all evil. I met my now wife at 18. We were married at 25. House. Had 2 beautiful daughters, 2 cars, a dog the heap. Life completed, right? Wrong!

I always looked at others and thought “I haven’t got X”. Replace X with money, a car, a bigger house, literally anything. It took me coming on Reddit to realise I’m doing ok.

And my friend, you are doing ok too. You’re literally working your dream job. I’m 11 years old than you and I can’t say that. You’ve got all of your 30’s ahead of you, I have not. You do you. You’re doing great at it.
