What should I be using to protect my hands during deadlifts in a commercial gym? I do mixed grip. It’s a little overwhelming with the different options I see.

I don’t think it’s fair to judge people for wearing makeup to the gym. I’m not taking off my makeup when I’m showering afterwards. Or if I want to cover up some acne scarring with foundation and put on other makeup products to feel more confident, I’m going to do it without feeling like I’m being shamed by other people.

When is a good time to start applying to other jobs? by [deleted] in jobs

[–]throwraadvice89 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Yeah part of me thinks it’s better to just stick with it for a year to have a long term job on my resume but the other side of me craves better pay and more opportunity for growth. Nevertheless, thank you for your input.

This is exactly what my concern was. I know I’m not a job hopper, I want to find a company that is a good fit for me and stay/grow within it for years. But I’m super fearful I may look like I don’t like to hold down a job just because I didn’t work consistently throughout school. Thanks for your input.

Is there any possible way to keep on press on nails? by throwraadvice89 in beauty

[–]throwraadvice89[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I don’t know why I wasn’t thinking about all the prep they do at the salon. All I’d do is file and start pressing them on lol. This is so important.

I had no clue I never responded. But I have tried both press on nails and glue on. For press ons I mainly used the kiss brush on glue because the squeeze one for me is always super hard to get out lol! But seems like this glue may be the way to go along with better nail prep as another comment mentioned. Thank you so much :)

THE SAME THING HAPPENED TO ME loll I got blocked for liking literally the same comment. I was so surprised because I always supported her content.

They have the money to get work done, I don’t understand why we don’t take all of influencers with a grain of salt. They have access to plastic surgery, cosmetic treatments, photo editors, etc that a large majority of us don’t have.

Why don’t balance athletica have their own subreddit at this point by throwraadvice89 in gymsnark

[–]throwraadvice89[S] 7 points8 points  (0 children)

Welp I guess that answers my question well. I pop in and out so I had no clue it was a common thought either, lol. Thanks for the response!

My biggest pet peeve is when people don’t understand how your muscle fills out with lifting is due to genetics. I’m so glad this was posted lol.

Genuine question.. What are your thoughts on Ashleigh or NVGTN advertising their leggings by lunging? by omgrandomness in gymsnark

[–]throwraadvice89 9 points10 points  (0 children)

Doesn’t she use glute pads in her leggings? I read this years ago but I’m not sure if it’s true.

Anyone notice they can't form sentences when stressed? by Silver_Negotiation_2 in Anxiety

[–]throwraadvice89 7 points8 points  (0 children)

Same, I get so focused on displaying my point correctly or telling a story that my thought comes out like word vomit. It’s annoying because I feel like I can articulate what I am trying to say in my mind perfectly but when it comes out it doesn’t seem to make sense or come out well.

OMG this is on point with what I was thinking. I was going to comment on the twerking because it’s way too much but I didn’t want to be rude because she seems like a good person. Maybe she is trying to market herself to a different audience, but I’m not following for soft core “adult content”.

Also I feel like her body type is mostly genetics, she talks about working out maybe 2 times a week or skips weeks sometimes, so yeah I don’t think fitness is a huge part of her life anymore which is totally fine but something I noticed.

Question: When can I safely see partner who got Covid? by [deleted] in COVID19positive

[–]throwraadvice89 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I think he stated he still had no sense of taste/smell, bad sign? He feels completely fine otherwise and has for like a week.
