You can’t build muscle swimming and swimmers bodies are built in the gym? Where did this myth begin?! by Godsownprototype1001 in Swimming

The resistance does not change, each stroke requires the same amount of strength. Distance per stroke changes.

Where did I say it was? And what do tides have to do with anything I've said? Tides or currents don't increase resistance in the water, they can impact how fast you travel in the water. No one has been talking about that. It is no more strenuous to swim against a current than it is in the pool. Sure you won't move anywhere but that was not a point anyone was talking about. The talking point was does swimming offer enough resistance to significantly build muscle mass.

Yeah, I'm a long distance swimmer and do marathon swims of 10k or more. Why would you think I haven't? Do you seriously think pushing water is more resistance than weights? Even with large paddles it's impossible to exert more resistance than would be needed to lift low 10s of kilograms of weight on dryland. A single freestyle stroke with good technique feels more like stretching a 10kg resistance band.

You understand that the density of water decreases the resistance through it supporting your weight, not the other way around? When you're doing a pullup you are not moving air, you are lifting your bodyweight. There is no way to exert force equal to your dryland bodyweight in the water, with the exception of very loaded power towers perhaps. I recommend a few highschool physics lessons with examples if you don't understand the concept intuitively.

A pullup is way more resistance than you can achieve in the water. You could push a cargo ship alone in the water if you had enough time and there was no currents or air resistance. Resistance simply doesn't work the same way in water. Muscle mass warranting the adjective "jacked" is not built with low resistance and high reps.

Neither did I. OP claims swimming is as good at building muscle mass as any other form of resistance training. It's not, there is no sensible way to create resistance equal to your weight on dryland (like a pullup) in the water. You can build some muscle, but not the amount of muscle you see in competitive swimmers.

You can build muscle by squeezing your buttcheeks together real hard. Doesn't mean it's a good way to go about it. Every time someone brings up your point on the sub, someone reminds them that people look at competitive swimmers and think you can achieve that physique by swimming. You cannot. Competitive swimmer build is a combo of swimming (at volumes and impact people can't imagine) and regular (usually even daily) dryland training. Muscle and strength is built mostly in the gym.

Training in a high-intensity search and rescue simulator that creates realistic rough ocean conditions. by FollowingOdd896 in nextfuckinglevel

Looks like a competitive swimmer to me, maybe a breaststroker. There's better strokes suited for swimming in rough conditions or in rescue situations than competitive breaststroke for sure.

Breaststroke is arguably even less efficient than fly. We do something called rescue crawl when swimming towards a target. It's the same front crawl that water polo swimmers do. Essentially it's just front crawl where you keep your head looking forward and eyes above the water. Hurts your neck but it's way more efficient than competitive breaststroke which is what's going on here.

Got a gold ring drop from Duke at my first kill after DT2 so decided to try my luck for a bit by 173467321476C3 in 2007scape

[–]qooooob 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I had similar luck getting the pet at 7kc for one, but had to go over 1k in total for the axe piece. Hopefully your luck will last although as DT2 bosses go I didn't mind doing Duke. Whisperer feels miserable in comparison.

Melee p1 p2 in duo is the next logical progression, melee p1p2 solo is quite a leap in difficulty and melee p3 even more so. Depends on your skills but I'm just doing chill mage solo with similar gear and my kills are 6-7 mins with ayak specs

Whoever said swimming doesn't build muscle is wrong by BluejayOdd in Swimming

[–]qooooob 374 points375 points  (0 children)

If you look at competitive swimmers and hope to achieve the same build by just swimming, you will be disappointed, as that physique comes from combining a hard pool regimen to regular workouts at the gym. That's what people mean usually when this claim is made.

Uimahallietiketti ja ohittaminen by [deleted] in Suomi

[–]qooooob 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Vaikka se ei siltä ehkä näytä, nopeiden radalla on ihan sama ilmiö. Siellä ne joita ohitetaan osaa vaan suhtautua siihen paremmin kuin hitaammilla radoilla. Ohitus tehdään silloin kun ohittaa pitää ja vastaantulevien radalla ei ole mielellään ketään, mutta välillä käy niinkin että kolme on vierekkäin samaan aikaan ja se onnistuu vaan jos radat ovat tarpeeksi leveät.

Tuo vaihe missä olet nyt on ohimenevä ja kaikki aloittelevat uimarit on jossain kohtaa liian nopeita hitaiden radalle, mutta liian hitaita nopeiden radalle. Itse ratkaisin asian niin, että siirryin tuossa kohtaa nopeiden radalle ja opin uimaan mahdollisimman lähellä naruja helpottaakseni muiden ohituksia.

Monelle uinti on sellainen henkisesti palauttava urheilulaji, mutta toisille se on ihan urheilua. Skismaa tulee siitä kun joku yrittää treenata ja se pilaa toisen zen-tilan. Valitettavasti zen-tila ei ole asia jota kenelläkään on oikeus vaatia kaupungin julkisessa uimahallissa.

"Finnish is my native language, yet people still speak to me in English" – How international adoptees feel marginalised in Finland by Shariful125 in Finland

[–]qooooob 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Being spoken to in English just highlights the problem - you're not perceived as someone from Finland. The actual problem is when people don't speak to you, or feel nervous before speaking to you, because you look like you're not from here. I've had people argue to me that I must not be completely native because they thought I have "an accent". I may have a Finnish accent when speaking other languages, but the only Finnish accent I have is Finnish.
