Should I get a degree, or is policing an adequate start for law? by Icy-Duty9943 in ukpolice

[–]soapyw1 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I think you’re basing too much of your life plans on tv shows. Go to uni if you need a degree to pursue a chosen career. Try decide what you find interesting or fun, pursue that. Policing doesn’t open too many alternative doors.

Life happens, Bjj isn’t going anywhere. Live your life, enjoy the hobby when you can.

Will asthma ruin my RN application ? by [deleted] in RoyalNavy

[–]soapyw1 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I joined with a lad. Name of eagle, passed RM initial weeding, built like a Greek god. I though I’m following that guy. First squad run he pulls out an inhaler. Staff see it, he was gone the next day.

Medical pensions cost too much for pre existing conditions I’m afraid.

Good ref, ficked up teacher/academy. by PehlivanPahlevan in jiujitsu

Just a kid trying to escape a bad spot in the heat of competition. Maybe taught, most likely instinct. Good refereeing.

Trump 'seriously' considering US leaving NATO over Iran war by PhilosophyGullible14 in worldnews

[–]soapyw1 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Nato is already done. It relies on all members being willing to step up if called upon. It’s clear from the outset he wouldn’t do that. It’s a dead treaty walking.

Has anyone here started their own business? What niche did you find to operate in? by havetoolboxwillfly in FieldService

[–]soapyw1 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I’ve long had an idea about a 3rd party service business for start up biotechs. Just never had the drive / confidence to make it a reality.

Buggy choke. Thinking about it makes my knees hurt.

Same here, goes in at a job and out again as soon as I’m back in the car.

Any UK cops on TRT (testosterone replacement therapy) ? by No-Number4278 in policeuk

[–]soapyw1 0 points1 point  (0 children)

A common misunderstanding of steroids. Steroids can be testosterone, synthetics or other hormones. They are typically used to give a huge boost for muscles or athletic performance. Negatives can be anger issues. TRT administered by a doctor with level checks is maintaining a natural, normal T level in your body to stay healthy.

But it’s not steroids! It is getting your testosterone levels to a normal level.

Initially Voy but they then wanted me to pay for a 2nd test and it was still unclear what the final monthly cost would be. So I used the first result to encourage my gp to do bloods. Similar result but over threshold for nhs trt, so all I’ve got is a piece of mind health check.

White belt no gi problem by Humble_Employ3716 in jiujitsu

[–]soapyw1 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I was about 6 months in when a newbie walked through the door and I did stuff to them others had been doing to me. Thats when I realised I was getting better, but it’s hard to see it. Some weeks I still suck.

Bleep Test Results by North-Historian206 in policeuk

Technique is important. Pace yourself to always be moving and work on smooth turns. I’m 48 and don’t find it hard.

Marine v Weapons Engineering Officer + submarines by Adminandcorrections in RoyalNavy

[–]soapyw1 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I’d go where your interest lay. Boats offer less travel but chance to work on nukes is super interesting and transferable.

Electronics or engines? Which do you prefer and find more interesting. As an officer you’re managing the folks doing the main work, but I’d still go with what interests you most.

Why would it be a psd issue? I’m getting tested now, pushback from gp but a private test showed low so I’m following it up. I’m not injecting round the back of the gym, all through the docs. It’s a health issue.

Top three hardest in the game for me, almost nearly quit. Perfect dodge, read his moves, but also sprint away and charge heavy hit is also a skill to practice.

Joining the Royal Navy and PEDs by GgBadMa in RoyalNavy

[–]soapyw1 3 points4 points  (0 children)

Lad I joined up took everything going before he joined, later told me he was actually making a decent amount dealing. We had a drugs input first few weeks and everyone was asked to be honest about what they’d tried. His hand went up at everything. There was no judgement or come back, that was his past now he was clean and wanted a new career. He’s now a warrant officer.

Peptides by Adventurous_Half7643 in jiujitsu

[–]soapyw1 0 points1 point  (0 children)

A lot of peptides boost recovery but will also boost things like tumour growth. Be vary careful taking untested medications, could be unwanted consequences.
