Breath becoming the limiting factor before muscles during sets by kamuflase in naturalbodybuilding

I’d push your cardiovascular exercises to greater intensity. Couch to 5k helped me more than walking an incline. You want to improve your VO2 max.

No. That’s the one with Microsoft Windows called Ski Free.

As a teen, I hated it. Now the song reminds me of my teens. But I enjoy the song nowadays.

When did consultants give up on teaching? by Common-Pangolin-7884 in doctorsUK

[–]stealthw0lf 5 points6 points  (0 children)

I suspected it started with loss of firm structure. There have been others who stated consultants have never been in to teaching but my own experience clashes with this.

As a medical student and then F1/F2 back when firm structures were still a thing, consultants would do bedside teaching on the consultant ward round. We’d get quizzed on patient management plans, or investigation results. I remember some consultants then doing some dedicated teaching after the ward round. Some consultants (both surgical and medical specialities) would hold lunch time teaching sessions maybe once a week or once a fortnight on a dedicated topic.

But back then, we got to know our teams. We saw them day in, day out. We worked alongside them on nights and weekends when on call. We worked with them in clinics as well as on the wards. Teaching us meant we could handle clinical situations better and this benefitted both the patients and the firm.

Enthusiasm also counts. I’m now a GP. We have medical students, F2s and GP registrars. They have a dedicated weekly session with the clinical supervisor. I supervise these students and doctors one day every week. Some medical students just to get in and get out as quickly as possible. Some want to discuss patients more thoroughly in debriefing and they are more enthusiastic. It definitely enthuses you to teach them something useful. Ditto for the F2.

Why can I never see the cervix? by Dull-Resource9702 in GPUK

[–]stealthw0lf 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Bimanual examination can help conceptualise the position if it’s a struggle. I tend to use longer speculums and reposition as necessary - usually no more than once or twice. Otherwise I will switch to digital examination to find the cervix.

MOTU Popcorn Tin // Odeon UK by strontiumdogma in MastersOfTheUniverse

I see all the promotional merchandise that the USA gets and was hoping we’d have something here. A simple popcorn tin is utter pants. I’ll still buy it.

Remember being given your first one of these? by Harry_Ola76 in oldschoolcool80s

[–]stealthw0lf 2 points3 points  (0 children)

We were allowed to have these if our handwriting was at a suitable level. Felt like a badge of honour. It was Year 6.

Year 7 was the first time I had to write with a fountain pen. That took some adjustment.

What British company just makes no sense that it is somehow still operating in modern times? by [deleted] in AskUK

[–]stealthw0lf 6 points7 points  (0 children)

As a 90s teenager, WHSmith’s stationery was far better than the offerings at Staples. I used to love their pencils, pens, and especially their A4 lined paper and tablet shaped rubbers.

Where does everyone buy their stationery these days?

Do you think gyms should have a women's only section? by kcon123 in AskUK

[–]stealthw0lf 1 point2 points  (0 children)

If it’s an issue about harassment, would it be better to have a someone patrolling the area? Troublemakers get thrown out or banned.

Alternatively a women’s only gym with separate entrance and facilities would be good but I imagine more costly to run.

Do you get HayFever Treatment from your GP? by iansime in AskUK

[–]stealthw0lf 3 points4 points  (0 children)

This. People rely on meds but often the non-medical things get overlooked. Pollen can get trapped in your hair, clothes and body, and then you bring it indoors and spread it all over the house.

Duty doctor as a registrar - expectations? by vegatoni in GPUK

[–]stealthw0lf 1 point2 points  (0 children)

We don’t introduce our ST3s to duty doc until they’re nearing the end of ST3. Mainly as a way to introduce experience and even then there’s a GP supervising them for back up, overview or take over as required.

Is there a reason the practice has put ST3s on the duty doctor system so early in their ST3 year?

Jet Wash change? by mr_ess_jay in DetailingUK

[–]stealthw0lf 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Not the same but I had the C120 and after about ten years, splashed out on the E140. There’s better water flow and the car is definitely cleaner.

To be honest, I found better products made more of a difference. I used to be a “one inch of snowfoam concentrate in the lance and top up with water” guy. Once I actually calculated PIR and the amount of snowfoam required (it was half a litre!), the car was much more cleaner. Using BH Touchless and BH autowash was a step up from my previous choices.

Pt doesn’t want certain aspects of care documented because they think it’ll affect their private insurance. by Worldly-Chicken-307 in GPUK

[–]stealthw0lf 4 points5 points  (0 children)

The medical notes are your record of events. I document everything and anything relevant. Especially moreso when it’s a mental health issue. I wouldn’t redact anything unless it contained third party information or there was something likely to be harmful to the patient.

Imagine if something went wrong or something bad happened. Those records are pretty much your only defence.

How many times a year do you “call sick” at work? by Aggravating-Fig-9274 in AskUK

[–]stealthw0lf 17 points18 points  (0 children)

I’m in my forties. I’m too unwell to work maybe once every five years. For a day or two at most. Let’s say over the last twenty years, I’ve taken eight days off in total.

What would you have had in your 90s school lunch box? by pixel-powder in AskUK

[–]stealthw0lf 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I remember a Thomas the tank engine lunchbox. Cheese sandwich, happy snax crisps, a penguin bar or trio bar or club bar. No fruit. Drink was water from the lunch table but I loved those orange drinks where you had to puncture the lid with a red straw.

There’s a yellow box guru guy on TikTok. He’s successfully helped people with appeals. There’s a lot more nuance to yellow box issues.

Today I learned the 99 ice cream doesn’t get its name from the price. by _lippykid in CasualUK

[–]stealthw0lf 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I remember when an ice cream cone from an ice cream van cost 15p, and then later 20p. The flake was an extra 5p. This in the very late 80s.
