Dull Men's Club@lemmy.world•I tried doing 10 pushups last night. Tried...
7·3 days agoNow that you know your maximum, do a couple of sets below your maximum. So do 7-8, rest 2 minutes, repeat for 2 sets. Then 3 to 5 sets later if you want.
This is for building your strength.
Remember there’s a difference between testing strength and building strength. Going for as many as you can til you can’t do any more is a test. Stopping 2-3 reps before for multiple sets will build your strength.
I’m going for 10 pullups in a row. My max is 7 right now. So I did 3 sets of 5 yesterday to build up strength.

Kids these days don’t know about the letter yogh.
Putting knitwear on a hanger will stretch it out, maybe even give it divots in the shoulders.
Sweatshirts are fine as they’re woven but sweaters like OPs should be dried flat.

Ask Lemmy@lemmy.world•What is your biggest "first world" disappointment?
3·5 days agoSure, they’re not a bad place to shop. But making it a personality trait is excessive.
Also Costco hotdog is the only true stablecoin.

Ask Lemmy@lemmy.world•What is your biggest "first world" disappointment?
121·5 days agoApparently the first world is free or something, yet everyone is so amazingly conformist. From the way they speak to the way they dress to the work they do and friendships and relationships, the vast majority is content to live a life of greige and shopping at Costco.
I’d grant maybe Transylvania as Central Europe given it was part of Austria-Hungary for a good while. Good number of the German and Hungarian minorities in Romania are from there.
Moldova? Definitely not central Europe.
Romania is an odd Venn diagram really. Is it Balkan? Sort of. Eastern European? Yeah kind of. Maybe find where the stuffed vine leaf/stuffed cabbage leaf divide is and split it that way. Analogous to the olive oil/butter divide in Italy.
Since I’m the privileged default of male at birth and comfortable being a man, I don’t have to be made to feel my gender too often.
Women and femmes get catcalled and harassed. I never have. Women get told to shut up subtly or not, and get their work stolen by men. I don’t. Enbys non-conforming people might get forced into the Man Box and asked “what are you?” I don’t get those questions. So I just get to go about my day not getting my gender shoved in my face.
That said, I’m fairly uncomfortable in highly-masculine situations. Like bros hanging out smelling like shit talking about cars and barbecue and tits. I like a lot of man-coded stuff though, like lifting weights and blasting heavy metal. I also like “softer” stuff like birdwatching and fashion (tho mostly men’s fashion).
Hell yeah pleasurechads. Denialcels in shambles.

World News@lemmy.world•China to cover all out-of-pocket childbirth expensesEnglish
32·8 days agoYeah that’s the thing. USA and China are both bad, sometimes due to the same thing (imperialism, capitalism, cronies running things etc), sometimes for unique things. Saying one country is good doesn’t make the other bad in the same domain. And vice versa.
However it is extremely important and necessary to compare things. Like you have compared military spending between different countries. The USA’s manifest destiny CAN be compared to the Han supremacy in China especially in Tibet and Xinjiang. But of course there are marked differences.

Also I’m not American nor pro-American.

93·9 days agoWhataboutism.
China is #2 in military spending after the USA.
As for harassing brown people: well there’s the whole Uyghur thing. And the simmering fight with other countries over islands in the South China sea.
Two things can be bad. These are not sports teams where one side wins and the other loses.

78·9 days agoI mean, China does also spend on their military and harass brown countries.
Olive grove destruction in Palestine is a horrible part of the genocide. But not a factor in olive oil price rises in Canada. The stuff we see here is produced in Spain, Italy, Tunisia, Greece etc.
Yes, Loblaws, Sobeys and gang are gouging everyone.
But climate change is a big factor in rising food prices too.
Remember olive oil going up in price? Crop failure due to bad weather.
Orange juice? Disease due to climate change.
Coffee prices rising right now? Take a guess.
It’s only beginning.
