Rules for Posting Guides on Our Community

1. Defining a Guide Guides are comprehensive reference materials, how-tos, or comparison tables. A guide must be well-organized both in content and layout. Information should be easily accessible without unnecessary navigation. Guides can include flowcharts, step-by-step instructions, or visual references that compare different elements side by side.

2. Infographic Guidelines Infographics are permitted if they are educational and informative. They should aim to convey complex information visually and clearly. However, infographics that primarily serve as visual essays without structured guidance will be subject to removal.

3. Grey Area Moderators may use discretion when deciding to remove posts. If in doubt, message us or use downvotes for content you find inappropriate.

4. Source Attribution If you know the original source of a guide, share it in the comments to credit the creators.

5. Diverse Content To keep our community engaging, avoid saturating the feed with similar topics. Excessive posts on a single topic may be moderated to maintain diversity.

6. Verify in Comments Always check the comments for additional insights or corrections. Moderators rely on community expertise for accuracy.

SIX MINUTES of meditation. I mean. Is that even meditation.

Six eating events per day is not healthy. It's going to keep your blood sugar high

Not if you are eating whole food.

So, we just need to get one of these per day right?

Gimme an exercise I can do that trains "all"/most muscles (especially hi & low back), isn't boring me to death (no plank) and can be done in a cramped space and I'm in.

Pushups, pullups/chinups, squats and lunges are a minimal but near full routine. Alternate arms and legs, 3 sets x 8 reps each, preferably done in a circuit. You need 3 minutes between muscle groups to let ATP/ADP regenerate, so with the alternating sets, rest 90 seconds between each exercise. Muscles need 48hrs rest to build, so do the below no more than 3x/week. Good form is way, way more important than reps. Start with good form and do as many as you can each timr till you hit 8.

3x:

Pushups x 8

Rest 90 sec

Squats x 8

Rest 90 sec

Chinups/Pull-ups x 8

Rest 90 sec

Lunges x 8 per leg

Rest 90 sec

How quickly do you get bored? Plank should not last longer than one or two minutes. You can put your phone on the floor and watch YouTube if you need constant stimulation.

Hey thats a good start, got one too (no more back problems!)

[–] [email protected] 0 points 1 month ago (1 children)

Plank is 2 mins of boredom at most. If it's any longer you need to add weights

Can I just squeeze all the rest (aside from the 8 hours of sleep) of the items into the 2 hours of no phone before bed and then spend the rest of my day doomscrolling in bed?
