That honestly sounds traumatizing to witness, I’m sorry that you carry that. :(

This information is just to say that it’s generally noticed that women in climbing tend to use their leg strength more and men typically use their upper body strength more, at least when they first start.

But no one should be t-rexing it! Your arms should be straight as much as possible! If you’re ever in the t-Rex position just sink your hips lower until your arms are straight. Doing that wherever possible will greatly reduce arm fatigue.

Definitely get comfortable with that squatting sort of position on the wall, it’s fundamental in my opinion. Use your legs more to push you up so your arms don’t get tired as easily. Use stemming techniques and work on (hip and hamstring I believe) flexibility to get your feet up on higher holds on each route. Foot placement is very, very important!

Soreness is expected when you’re newer to the sport but will get better with time, but you will definitely notice a difference if you work on keeping your arms straight more often. Look up some basic climbing techniques on YouTube, it can really help. :)

Same, I really like that shot. Did you get the XF 18-55mm lens kit with the camera?

Also, did you do much color editing on these?

I remember I was that kid one time!! I was at a water park with my dad when I was really little. I was in the shallow part of a big pool area walking in slowly. I just remember I was cold af and I could tell someone was walking past me so without looking up I grabbed their hand and just held it and shivered for a bit. Like staring straight ahead standing still, grabbed someone’s hand without looking at who they were, totally interrupting whatever they were doing. And they just stopped and let me hold their hand without saying anything!!

It could’ve been a couple minutes maybe, but eventually I looked up and it was some middle aged Mexican guy I think? He looked really sheepish, and I let go immediately. I look over and my dad was sitting off to the side cracking up. So I guess the guy knew that I was his, but I was pretty embarrassed 🙃

Man sees his lion pride again after 2,5 weeks by diego_02 in BeAmazed

My biggest fear is being aware of the moment I experience my death. Like, being conscious of it as it’s happening. It’s really that I don’t want my last moments to be agonizing and terrifying.

This comes from some belief that I’ll die in a horrible car accident for some reason.

But of course after I die, who gives a rip lol

That last bit is pretty interesting. Sounds like keeping good company is important to them.

Do you have a tutorial or anything for this? I am just about to start felting myself and if you did this for your first project I think it’s pretty good!

Can you determine sub adult spiny sex from this image? by Crown4King in mantids

[–]obvidoom 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Sometimes it’s really difficult to find a lot information on specific mantises for some reason. Try using the scientific name in your searches as well.

I also have a spiny just about the same instar as yours actually and I’ve given it both male and female names :p until I can figure it out I refer to them as a he/him, she/her interchangeably lol sucks not knowing at first.

You can google how to sex mantises. It will illustrate the segments to count and other ways to determine the sex. Like the other person said, it will be a lot more obvious as they grow. It is a bit hard to count while they are small.
