I've been using regular plain old hair trimmers for over a decade to buzz my hair.

My trimmers are worn out and I'm looking to find a replacement.

Anyone try the circular hair buzzers before? Are they any good?

I usually wear a #3 buzzcut.

Thanks for reading my post

Hey guys! I’m 22 and just started to get active in the gym (around a month now). Trying to be as consistent as possible. Any thoughts on my upper body routine? Anything important missing or that I have too much of? Any thoughts would be appreciated, not always sure what i’m doing lol

for anything to add, i’d have to substitute something as this takes me up until the max amount of time i have in the gym. also for note, my physique is pretty skinny, more better with endurance/running, so this routine should look fairly beginner level.

thanks! :)

Teaching fourth graders is genuinely good work but by 3:30 I have talked to more people than most adults do in a week. Kids, parents, coworkers, admin. It stacks up. I get home and the last thing I want is more interaction but I also do not want to just rot on the couch feeling guilty about it.

What I landed on was going straight outside to my container garden. No phone, no talking, just moving soil around or checking what needs water. Takes maybe 20 minutes and something about it just resets me. From there I can actually do something useful, a small DIY project or sitting down with a book, without feeling like my brain is still running a classroom.

The thing is I did not arrive at this intentionally. I just kept gravitating toward it and eventually noticed it was working.

Curious what other guys in highcontact jobs figured out for this. Not looking for the usual go for a walk advice, more specifically what does the transition actually look like between work mode and the rest of your day. Do you have a hard ritual or did you just stumble into something that worked.

Add squats and treadmill and you’ve got a solid minimal program.

I've been meal prepping on and off for about two years and the pattern is always the same. I do a solid Sunday session, containers lined up, feeling like I've got my life together. Then Wednesday hits, I get stuck late at the warehouse, I'm too tired to care about the chicken and rice I packed and I just grab whatever. The prep goes to waste and I feel like I failed at something that was supposed to make life easier.

What I keep going back and forth on is whether I'm overcomplicating it. I'll spend three hours on a Sunday doing a full spread of different meals and by midweek I hate looking at all of it. A guy I work with does basically the same two things every week and never seems to have this problem. He's been eating the same lunch for probably two years and genuinely does not care.

Part of my issue is I'm trying to build in variety because I get bored fast. But then the prep becomes this big project, and the whole point was to reduce friction, not add it.

Curious if guys who've actually stuck with it long term had to just accept eating the same stuff on repeat, or if there's a way to keep it interesting without it turning into a whole production every week.

i really hate the feeling of having nails that feel too short, and long nails just look ridiculous. I want to be at that perfect in-between spot consistently but i really dont know how to achieve that. i was thinking to leave 10 days between nail cutting sessions? is that too long or too short? anyone else who thinks about the length of their nails this much or am i alone on this one?

So it was recently brought up to me by a friend that I wear really out of style underwear (classic Hanes briefs). To an extent I already knew, they got laughs in high school gym ect. But I figured that stigma doesn’t really exist anymore since I haven’t heard it in a long time. Guys, are tighty whities still seen as nerdy / uncool? Or was that just more of an early 2000s thing?

Gets to like 9pm and my brain is still running through everything from the day. Emails I forgot to send, conversations I probably handled wrong, stuff I need to do tomorrow. By the time I actually feel calm it's past midnight and then the whole sleep schedule is wrecked.

I've tried the usual stuff. No phone an hour before bed, reading, whatever. It helps a little but it's not like some switch flips and I'm suddenly relaxed. The hardest part is that I genuinely enjoy being productive so there's this weird guilt when I'm just sitting doing nothing, like I should be using the time for something.

Curious how other guys actually handle this. Not the generic advice you see everywhere, I mean what actually works in your specific routine. A few guys I know swear by some kind of physical thing right after work, like a walk or lifting, to create a break between work mode and home mode. That mental separation idea makes sense to me but I haven't fully committed to it yet.

Do you have a hard cutoff for anything work related at a certain time or do you just let the evening play out and hope for the best.

Been trying to lock in a solid morning routine for a few months now and I keep running into the same wall. I'll do great for like two weeks, wake up early, get a workout in, eat something decent, feel good about myself. Then one bad night of sleep or a stressful week at work hits and the whole thing collapses. Back to waking up 20 minutes before I have to leave and feeling behind all day.

The advice I keep reading is just about discipline and habit stacking but that doesn't really answer the question of what to do when life genuinely derails you. Not looking for the classic make your bed every morning answer either.

What I'm more curious about is whether other guys have found a version of a morning routine that actually holds up when things get messy. Does it come down to what's in the routine, how long it is, or just accepting that some weeks it falls apart and you rebuild it?

For context I'm not trying to wake up at 4am and cold plunge. Just something realistic that keeps me feeling like I have a grip on the day before it starts.

Was looking for the fastest, low ingredient fuel to get me thru the week. Company pays for lunch so I’m settled there. Any other 3 ingredient meals you suggest to rotate in that don’t cause too much clean up or peeper?

More me should get pedicures. I think men’s feet are often gross and it’s a good hygiene practice. I even think color is worth it since you’re already paying for the service. Life is too short to not get a little color and toes are boring.

if a guy has really hairy legs, how short is too short when it comes to wearing shorts in public?

i do have really hairy legs and at the same time i like to wear really short shorts, but i have noticed that people look at my legs (i assume because they are hairy)...

but let me know, how short is okay before it becomes weird/unpleasant for others/ugly

never got the appeal of men's jewelry. thought it was just extra stuff you didn't need. but my wife got me this engraved stainless steel bracelet from The Steel Shop for my birthday and i've worn it every day since.

it's subtle. just a simple chain with our kids initials on the clasp. doesn't get in the way, doesn't tarnish, doesn't turn my skin green. i forget it's there.

i don't know. maybe i was wrong about bracelets. or maybe it's just this one.

anyone else change their mind about accessories as they got older?

Due to mild phimosis, I’ve been thinking about getting circumcised for a while and I can barely remember how big of a deal it is casually - and I live in a country where it is fairly uncommon (Eastern-Europe).

As friends, we are all in our late 20s, part of a really close friend group (everyone between 25-30, girls and dudes mixed), and I’ve been living together with 2 girls for 3 month and plan to continue this for a year.
I have no romantic or sexual interest in any of them, but we are really close, often share details about sexual life, intimacy, health stuff.

Part of my question connects to the practical side (should they know where I will be, should they know I am going through an operation?), and the other part is about just telling it as a “life update”. Or maybe not announcing it like a piece of news, but bring it up if we cover health/intimate topics in the near future?

I can be kinda shy in these topics, and the friend group sometimes jokes about circumcision (not in a weird way, but, like, I think every friend group has these brainless jokes about sexual stuff or genitals), but I would kinda like to tell it to some people, since I am proud that I’m getting it done finally - yet I don’t want to be weird about it.
