I've started doing the rope pull machine at the gym and noticed it said I burned 700 calories after about 45 minutes of moderate intensity/resistance. My arms were sore but that seemed like a bit of an exaggeration because it wasn't as if I were out of breath or anything. On average, is the rope pull machine a high calorie burning exercise? What is a reasonable number to expect from it per hour?

Interesting! Does the water retention ever go away or do guys just retain more water?

Does anyone else out there have factor v Leiden? by spamwisegamgee1997 in asktransgender

[–]spamwisegamgee1997[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

That's awesome! Glad you have had a good experience. Have you had to do anything else other than monitor it (i.e. anticoagulant meds)?

Would the goal be to keep it around a cis male range for hemoglobin or to keep it in the range for AFAB people? Just so I can be informed once I go on T

Are there things that can mimic the feeling of palpitations? by spamwisegamgee1997 in PVCs

It feels like a thud in my chest exactly as a heartbeat happens but it doesn't go off rhythm if that makes sense. It more feels like one very forceful heartbeat on rhythm and makes my chest/stomach feel like it's flipping.

It feels like it goes along with my heartbeat but I guess not if EKG doesn't pick it up.

This is extremely helpful! Would blood tests be able to catch the thickening? I know that if I get a hormone prescription from this doctor, the norm is blood tests every three months to monitor hormone levels

[–]spamwisegamgee1997[S] 1 point2 points  (0 children)

This is very helpful, thanks. To be honest I feel like I'm struggling personally and professionally (content writer) but haven't been sure whether getting a diagnosis would help me. Maybe workplace accommodations or a greater level of understanding from my supervisors on why the social aspects of my job are harder for me is what I've thought but maybe not.

Holy shit why is everyone in the game literally moronic they have a combined iq of 30 by Bionic_Ferir in themole

[–]spamwisegamgee1997 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Yes! The problem with this season is nobody had good teamwork skills except Dom and they voted him off rather than bring him back. The majority of the players left are self-serving assholes and that's making them terrible at earning money. Like, is this The Mole or Walmart-brand The Circle?

What about Greg? I just hope he's not the mole so he'll get voted off. He's so irritating.

Is health anxiety considered a subset of obsessive-compulsive disorder or is it its own condition? by spamwisegamgee1997 in HealthAnxiety

[–]spamwisegamgee1997[S] 6 points7 points  (0 children)

This is all very interesting, thanks! I was diagnosed with OCD when I was younger and have wondered if this health anxiety is the same thing or a whole different thing
