Due to chronic wrist pain from Boxing, Doctor has suggested I take up a more low-impact martial art.
I brought up Wing Chun but he said the bare handed nature of it might not be suitable for my condition.
Do you think I can get away with using handwraps for training? I know obviously in a self-defense scenario we’ll be bare handed, but I need to train for longevity.
I’ve been asked to train my baby brother, who is fat af and has been asked to lose weight. He wants something fun so I’ve suggested boxing at home, where I’ll hold the mitts
What’s the best budget punch mitt to go for?
Was it an aesthetic choice during that time period? Or it’s like a beater car
Basically the title, looking for areas with decent property prices (e.g not more than RM1.5k for whole unit rent) which are not more than 30 mins away from Putrajaya and KL.
I have a car, my partner relies on public transport. So it’s ok if it’s closer to KL than Putrajaya.
Just curious whether there is a need to invest in more expensive handwraps e.g Twins, Fairtex
Or if the cheap ones from Everlast will do
Something feels like he was having threeways with Nikki and Sarah, the Gattouz0 of the Obsession universe, if you will
Due to much longer commute from new job, I’m now suffering from backpain due to stiffness and ergonomics of the Myvi.
What mods should I do make it more comfortable?
My one is when someone commented saying it’s ok to bring up an employee’s high-intensity hobbies in annual performance evaluation, because occasional injuries affect being present at work.
China cars as in BYD, XPeng, Jaecoo etc (exclude Proton for the pedantic ones)
Seriously why do most of them have shit driving skills lol. Tailgating, speeding during rain, generally impatient and never gives way.
Planning to go back to Rembau this Saturday. First time travelling outstation for State elections.
How bad will the jam be? Any tips?
Recently got some new TopBoxer Alien gloves and love hitting the bags with them.
However I noticed with the lead hooks, I had sharp wrist pain on the base of my wrist, pinky side (see red circle).
What’s wrong with my technique? I never got this with Thai gloves despite inferior wrist support.
Tbh Bear missed out on a big opportunity during Boys’ night. Here’s what I would’ve done
Step 1: After Nikki freaks out and stabs herself, he should have insisted both Ian and Sarah to accompany them to the hospital.
Step 2: Nikki was being a danger to herself and others so she should have been sedated technically. Ian and Sarah could corroborate this. Assuming this happens, Bear can plan the next steps with Ian and Sarah.
Step 3: Rush to buy 2 OWW with Ian and Sarah. Sacrifice one OWW to prove that it works (wish for billion dollars I guess). After that, get Sarah to wish for everything to be back to normal.
Step 4: Everyone survives and is less traumatised but rich.
Honestly they’re both shit friends for not accompanying Bear to the hospital lol but that’s besides the point.
Just came across MPG’s post on hottest and coldest careers.
Curious on why internal audit is ranked as one of the least prospective careers. I always thought it was a good option compared to external audit.
I’ve been watching some past ONE highlights for Jo Nattawut.
Why was he able to do so well against Tawanchai twice, but got finished by Superbon?
Never saw anyone break down his style before
I recently joined a new company, and I’m struggling to figure out whether this is just how some corporate cultures work or whether this is genuinely unhealthy.
The culture is very “positive” on the surface, but it feels like toxic positivity. If you’re not constantly praising every initiative, no matter how small, you’re quickly seen as being negative or not a team player. It feels like you’re expected to be enthusiastic about everything rather than give honest opinions.
The bigger issue came during my performance review. I met all of my work KPIs, but I was still marked down because of an unwritten expectation that everyone should actively participate in things like event management, volunteer activities, and other extracurricular initiatives.
The frustrating part is that none of these were part of my formal objectives. At the same time, our team is already stretched thin with our actual workload, so participating in these activities often means staying back after work or putting in extra hours just to keep up. I just wanna do good work, and then go home for the day.
Would you consider this a red flag, or is this just something I need to adapt to?
I’d appreciate hearing from people who’ve been through something similar, especially if you’ve found a way to handle it without burning yourself out.
Going through it rn with an incompetent newly promoted boss. Wondering what would be the consequences if I ask for a team transfer or straight up quit?
I’ve been at this team for 5 years already and have worked well with other Managers.
Maybe I’m being a boomer, but when I was younger I remember people being more genuine, even if they were annoying af.
Why does everyone seem to be putting on a mask? Even at non-work settings
Ppl gave up taking LRT3 after 2 days ah?
Seems like nowadays it’s an expectation to stay and work past contracted hours, and poor planning from bosses is somehow your fault.
Just a Monday morning rant lol
