    They don't advice to eat only bread, just to reduce other foods while eating 6 slices if bread. If bread is whole grain and no added sugars, it's actually a pretty good source for protein, which is what you want to eat a lot of while dieting to maintain muscle mass.

    If you have a power meter you can try out zwift or rouvy. You can see yourself riding specific routes on screen and they have workout programs that prompt change of intensity. Otherwise I think GCN has some follow along youtube videos, and there might be others as well.

    We found an apartment in our dream location! Moving from a big flat city with boring surroundings to a small town in the mountains. Our apartment has a view of an orchard and vegetable garden and our dog can run around in a shared garden. We go up in size and down in price as well, even though there is a train connection of only 20 minutes to a big town. Moving there next week and I'm sooo excited. We are both procrastinators and managed to find the apartment and sign the contract two weeks before moving date.. phew.

    The speed wall is more difficult than you think. Most average climbers would not make it to the top. That also makes it a waste of a lot of wall space in a commercial gym which serves mostly average climbers unfortunately.

    Coaches get to stay with athletes in iso until the competition starts, but can't go out and back in again. They are also not allowed to shout any advice while the athletes are climbing.

    Exactly that. They have to go into isolation a few hours before the start of the session. Isolation means no internet/bluetooth/outside contact in an area with warm up equipment. They then have 5 minutes to "read" the boulder and climb it.

    In the finals it is different and they get a 2 minute shared observation per boulder before they start. But they are still in iso while the others are climbing.

    I am dutch and I have never heard of this issue/myth. Even tour de grance cyclists manage to have kids just fine after 20 years of full time cycling, so I wouldn't worry.

    To borrow a line from Letterkenny, it's like getting fingered with salad tongs.

    I think you need to talk to more than one girl about that.. really depends on the procedure, your sensitivity down there and the competence of the gynaecologist. I've been to appointments that were fine and I've been there near crying from pain..

    Yes, Nijmegen got hit almost as bad as Rotterdam (the worst bombing by the germans) and that was also because of allied forces thinking they were flying over germany. It was the 80 year memorial a few weeks ago. Unfortunately, more than a few people died in Nijmegen.
