When not to exercise?

When you feel bad, get sick or tired.

Right after a meal. At least two hours must pass.

On empty stomach. A glass of yogurt an hour before a workout will not be superfluous. And an hour after training, you must definitely eat something protein (meat, fish).

 Random interesting fact from the Great Encyclopedia:

Why did Theseus and Pirithous descend into the underworld?

When Hippodamia, the wife of Pirithous, and Phaedra, the wife of Theseus, died, the two widowed heroes decided to marry the daughters of Zeus. Theseus chose the Spartan princess Helen, sister of the Dioscuri, and Pirithous helped him kidnap her.

In the bride of Pirithous, friends decided to get Persephone herself, the wife of Hades. They descended into the underworld and, somehow forcing Charon to transport them across the Styx and past the watchdog Cerberus, soon knocked on the doors of the palace of Hades. The lord of the realm of the dead calmly listened to their unprecedentedly brazen demand and, pretending to be hospitable, invited them to sit down. Suspecting nothing, they sat where it was suggested, and found themselves on the throne of oblivion.

Theseus and Pirithous were rooted to the stone throne so much that they could no longer get up from it without being crippled. They were scourged by the Erinyes and torn with their teeth by Kerberus, and Hades looked at all this and grinned grimly. When, four years later, Hercules came to the kingdom of Hades to pick up Kerberos, he recognized two friends. They silently held out their hands to him, begging for help. Persephone graciously allowed Hercules to free her hapless kidnappers and take them with him if only he could. Hercules tore Theseus off the stone and returned to the ground, but when he tried to free Pirithous, the earth shook, and Hercules was forced to retreat.

True, there are those who believe that Theseus and Pirithous never descended into the kingdom of Hades, but tried to kidnap the wife of the king of Thesprot. He, having found out in time about the unholy plan, took the insolent prisoners prisoner, threw Pirithous to be eaten by dogs, and Theseus imprisoned, from where Hercules rescued him.

Machine for thinning flowers in gardens 02.05.2024

In modern agriculture, technological progress is developing aimed at increasing the efficiency of plant care processes. The innovative Florix flower thinning machine was presented in Italy, designed to optimize the harvesting stage. This tool is equipped with mobile arms, allowing it to be easily adapted to the needs of the garden. The operator can adjust the speed of the thin wires by controlling them from the tractor cab using a joystick. This approach significantly increases the efficiency of the flower thinning process, providing the possibility of individual adjustment to the specific conditions of the garden, as well as the variety and type of fruit grown in it. After testing the Florix machine for two years on various types of fruit, the results were very encouraging. Farmers such as Filiberto Montanari, who has used a Florix machine for several years, have reported a significant reduction in the time and labor required to thin flowers. ... >>

Advanced Infrared Microscope 02.05.2024

Microscopes play an important role in scientific research, allowing scientists to delve into structures and processes invisible to the eye. However, various microscopy methods have their limitations, and among them was the limitation of resolution when using the infrared range. But the latest achievements of Japanese researchers from the University of Tokyo open up new prospects for studying the microworld. Scientists from the University of Tokyo have unveiled a new microscope that will revolutionize the capabilities of infrared microscopy. This advanced instrument allows you to see the internal structures of living bacteria with amazing clarity on the nanometer scale. Typically, mid-infrared microscopes are limited by low resolution, but the latest development from Japanese researchers overcomes these limitations. According to scientists, the developed microscope allows creating images with a resolution of up to 120 nanometers, which is 30 times higher than the resolution of traditional microscopes. ... >>

Air trap for insects 01.05.2024

Agriculture is one of the key sectors of the economy, and pest control is an integral part of this process. A team of scientists from the Indian Council of Agricultural Research-Central Potato Research Institute (ICAR-CPRI), Shimla, has come up with an innovative solution to this problem - a wind-powered insect air trap. This device addresses the shortcomings of traditional pest control methods by providing real-time insect population data. The trap is powered entirely by wind energy, making it an environmentally friendly solution that requires no power. Its unique design allows monitoring of both harmful and beneficial insects, providing a complete overview of the population in any agricultural area. “By assessing target pests at the right time, we can take necessary measures to control both pests and diseases,” says Kapil ... >>

Canadian military snowmobile 05.09.2013

Canada, one of the most peaceful countries in the world, sorting out all the disputes on the hockey field, is also not averse to fighting for real. The other day it turned out that for the past two years she has been developing the most unusual vehicle for the needs of her army - an absolutely silent snowmobile.

It's hard to get the imagination to draw a soldier on a snowmobile that runs completely silently, but that's what Canada wants to achieve. The snowmobile already even has its own name - its name is Loki in honor of the eponymous god of deceit and deceit from Scandinavian mythology.

Why a snowmobile? It's simple - there is a lot of snow in Canada. It is simply necessary to make it silent in order to secretly sneak behind enemy lines. Loki, by the way, already exists in a full-size and fully operational version - just the other day it had its first field test near Ontario, on the territory of the Petawawa military base.

Loki really can move without making a single sound, but all due to the electric motor integrated into it. To be precise, the snowmobile is a hybrid - it also has a diesel internal combustion engine, which is very noisy, but can turn off when needed.

Loki testing included control, maneuverability, speed and, most importantly, range with the main engine turned off. The check was carried out in the strictest secrecy, so no details about the results have yet been disclosed.

It is possible that after some time the Loki snowmobile will become available not only to the military, but also to ordinary people, and not only in Canada. The hybrid power plant will allow you to travel more distance on one tank of fuel, which is sometimes critical.
