How do I practice eggbeater when I don't have access to a pool except for water polo club meetings 3 times a week? The first time I went (Saturday) I could barely tread water for more than like 5 seconds and got so many cramps. How do I build muscle memory for eggbeater outside of water? I don't want to use up my water polo learning time to learn egg beater
Hey all, Im a newbie trying to learn water polo. I am also a beginner swimmer (gassed after a 50 free, 40 second 50 free).
Anyway, Im kind of fat and am learning water polo to lose weight and gain stamina and muscle while having fun. Any tips? Things Im having trouble with in particular is treading water without getting tired after like five seconds and throwing the ball. Thanks to all who helps!
Lmao time to switch over to lichess??
I'm on a quest to learn sautille and spiccato this summer to a proficient level, as most fun showpieces include them and my right arm/hand technique sucks. Does anyone have any exercises and tips for these bow strokes? I've made a post similar to this a while back but I don't think I've improved at all.
Hi guys! I'm an 8th grader currently, based in the U.S., and with my middle school career almost over (summer break starts in june) I am thinking a lot about my path in high school. First of all, the high school I will go to has 6 periods, with an optional 7th. The classes I know I'm taking are as follows:
AP Precalculus
Spanish 3
Orchestra (At the highest level)
Language Arts
AP World History
You can assume all of these classes are either honors or AP. Now, I am taking Chemistry honors online this summer (With the help of the legend, Organic Chemistry Tutor). I've took Biology honors this year and Earth Space honors last year in 7th grade (Same with math. Algebra 1 last year, Geometry this year, Algebra 2 online, but I don't worry too much abt math bc I've been particularly gifted in that area throughout my school years).
Basically, here is the problem. I don't know which science class to take for my freshman. My high school offers these science courses:
It's kinda hard to read, but if you zoom in you should be able to.
I don't know if it will help, but my interests are math and music (I play cello).
Please help me choose a good course for next year 🙏
So Im 1900 in blitz and 1800 bullet, but my rapid was only 1550. I started off my chess career with rapid, but transferred to 3+2 or 5 minute games because rapid took too long. Just recently I started playing rapid again, won like 15 games in a row, and now Im at 1690. The games feel way too easy and it just feels like a waste of time, but I want to keep playing long form games, Classical is out of the question bc there are way too many cheaters. What should I do?
How difficult do you think this piece is? I find it pretty easy except for that one spicatto section, cause my bowing techniques suck.
This is my first time doing this. The game was on lichess.
Anyway have fun with this, its gonna be hard because my opponent was so bad
Edit: I should add this was 3 minute blitz
So, I'm not a beginner exactly, but I'm a worse version of witty alien. In blitz and bullet, I'm a menace because I play super aggressively and sacrifice pieces to open up the position. The opponents don't know what to do. But if they do know what to do against aggro players like me, or if its a time setting longer than 3 minutes, I have no hope and I don't know what to do. What should I do to improve?
Edit: For context I don't really watch educational videos, just witty_alien. I don't follow chess either, and I don't play a specific opening or even know any. I play what my heart desires
What is so hard about these two cello concertos? Is it stamina? Technique? Musicality? Exposure?
I currently have a 500 dollar bow and a 5000 dollar cello.
I've tried expensive bows on my cello and it makes a huge difference, but I'm a teenager, so should I invest in a better bow? I can mooch money off my grandparents when I go to Korea this summer.
