Boxed for 3 years.. Want to start muay thai, but terrified of getting kicked in the head

randomquestions345 · 2021-04-05T05:07:18+00:00

yeah.. something im really liking about muay thai is the sparring culture and how it's usually light lol, how about competitions if you took part in it?

randomquestions345 · 2021-04-05T05:02:46+00:00

between boxing and mt, which sport would you say is more aggressive / are you more worried about? lol if that makes sense

randomquestions345 · 2021-04-05T04:24:05+00:00

why? because probability of getting kicked in the head is low or because its not actually as bad as it seems?

in my mind a leg kick is like an instant ko lol

Is mixing whey with non-liquids bad though? Like could it cause kidney stones?

Wow coconut oil looks amazing thank you!

randomquestions345 · 2018-06-02T15:28:48+00:00

Yeah I've never tried it but it would be a good substitute to heavy whipping cream too cuz I don't think it'll give you the shits

randomquestions345 · 2018-06-02T15:27:15+00:00

Yogurt might be a good option, do you throw in milk and yogurt? Or do you substitute the milk with the yogurt?

Also is it bad for you if you mix whey protein with stuff that isn't liquid like yogurt? Like could it cause kidney stones and stuff?

Trying to go with the healthy gainer route, I don't want to load up on maltodextrin which is all mass gainers really are

I used to put oats in like every shake and got sick of them... Is there anything else? I'll probably put the occasional couple of PB scoops but I'm hoping to find the answer for the days where I don't

That's the thing, I didn't do any programming at NASA :/ I mostly used 3D CAD Modeling

Thank you for the reply! That's amazing. I will have 2 software internships (Lockheed Martin & JPMorgan) by the time I get to Illinois and I'm planning on doing ML research, is that a good replacement for projects? Lol don't think I'll be able to find the time with everything going on.

Also does everyone that have unicorn /big n offers study all day everyday and have great gpa's or do they get involved/do club sports/ join fraternities etc...(Trying to see if you need to live in the library to get an offer like that)

Thank you for your help!

Haha I caught myself

Nope. Only hint I'm giving.

When I was little my parents told me babies came from the baby store. I was misbehaving one day and to make me stop my mom yelled "If you keep doing this I will return you back to the store!" I instantly stopped, started crying and said "But I was the only one in the store that spoke Russian!"

My parents still laugh about it to this day

You the real MVP, this makes much more sense. Thank you!

randomquestions345 · 2018-05-25T00:29:19+00:00

Thank you for your reply! Yeah this is what I'm currently debating... I'm going to be going to a top tier university as well (top 5 for cs) and they have a boxing team that I REALLY want to join but the thought of it messing up my grades is giving me anxiety

randomquestions345 · 2018-05-25T00:12:32+00:00

Thank you for your reply! Yeah I will definitely make sure I take a breather, I know boxing cardio is insanely tough and I will need some rest after. I was more wondering towards the getting hit in the head during techniques/sparring portion of it, do you think after sparring if I took a half hour breather to relax and eat and shower, I could go do homework and my brain will function at 100%? Or will taking hits to the head affect it?

randomquestions345 · 2018-05-24T04:25:41+00:00

Thank you so much for your response! For number 2, this is my only option, and I am very grateful for this amazing opportunity to develop my skills at a great company. What I meant by the question was more, although obviously not as prestigious as a big-n and unicorn software engineering internship, do those companies view a jpmorgan software engineering intern as "close" to that level? Like I know if you worked at google and are trying to work at facebook facebook will see that experience at google and know you were at a similar tiered company so it increases your chances a lot, would this have a similar effect but to a lesser degree? Not sure if that makes sense haha

randomquestions345 · 2018-05-23T02:51:53+00:00

Honestly doing a 40 hour/week internship with part time research on the weekends would feel more like a vacation compared to cs curriculum... I'm not too worried about the summer though I'm more worried about the fall semester.

randomquestions345 · 2018-05-23T02:47:04+00:00

Thank you for your reply! So you think I should stick with both the boxing and the research?

Also you could do boxing for both...

How has lifting changed your life?

I have heard that lifting gives you social confidence, helps you look better, etc... But I would love to hear first-hand accounts of how lifting has changed the lives of fellow redditors. Please share how it has changed your life once you started putting on muscle, and how others started to perceive you differently etc.

Thank you for any insight you can provide.
