what's happening Steve Mayeda here and I am going to show you how to go from
zero ice baths to 36 35 34 degree ice baths for 15-20 minutes and three weeks
before we start do this at your own risk if you feel odd or bad or too cold in
any sort of way just stop get out I'm not a doctor you could die so in the
past four years I've done over 200 ice baths but I have not done an ice bath in
over six months now the reason for that is because I do it the old-fashioned way
in a tub with water and all the sort of stuff and I don't have one of those cool
freezers or a cryo chamber or anything like that and in the summertime it is
too expensive to pay for ice so in the fall in the winter and in the early
spring my ice bath now four years ago when I started this there were all sorts
of health benefits I got really into wim HOF and I'm still into it but the reason
why I do ice baths is much different than why a lot of people say to do them
do you want the science behind it list of Rhonda Patrick or one of these other
people who's really in that that's not me the reason why I do ice baths is
number one it takes me to another world completely and there's one of the most
peaceful things that I've ever done in my life now for me I'm a former drug
addict that's just type to somebody else in recovery that doing an ice bath for
me is better than heroin that's you guys who've never done drugs or have some
stigma about heroin in your life you might take that in a wrong way but to
somebody who's done that drug this is better than that except you stop being
high and there's no downsides afterwards I've also done under supervision five
Meo DMT which is the toad DMT which is supposed to be one of the greatest
psychedelics of all time although it is amazing and it's its own unique
experience and there are two separate things this is better this gets me to a
spot of greater knowledge of self greater knowledge of the world and
allows me to think clearly
the second reason why I do it is it helps my body feel better
now in all the healing there's arguments of ice baths or cryo or not and all this
sort of stuff man I don't care about it I feel better I sleep better and to be
honest I love it and there's probably a third reason and we'll just have to wait
till this year's ice bath journal comes out and pretty much every year since I
started there's an ice bath log that I have and a playlist of wim HOF stuff she
should definitely check it out but let's get into this because I'm gonna journal
that this year but what I want to tell you now is if you're just starting out
with ice baths but you need to worry about is acclimating your body it's not
magic it's not some force of will well there's a little bit of that it's more
about how your body can get used to the cold and once it's used to the cold then
you can move into deeper levels of the cold getting into those high high
meditative States now this is one of the principles of learning and my whole
coaching business is that you have to be functional before you can do all the
fancy stuff you have to be functional until you can achieve excellence and in
this case excellence would be getting into those lower lower temperatures and
longer periods of time and being able to build awareness but first I got to be
able to withstand the cold so how are we gonna do that well this should only take
you two weeks it shouldn't take you any more than three weeks if you do three to
four ice baths a week or Coldwater immersion where you have the water under
sixty degrees I like between sixty and fifty-five
degrees if you can stay in that for 15 minutes or to the point where you start
to get cold and this is where it gets confusing and potentially dangerous if
you start shivering when you're in the water get out like I said I'm not a
doctor I don't know any of that stuff but I do know if you start shivering in
the water get out draw a warm bath and sit in it for an hour or two until you
stop shivering
but after that first or second bath where you get in the water and are able
to acclimate to it your body's gonna start to produce different stuff
maybe it's Brown out of his tissue maybe it's different hormones whatever it is
it's gonna allow you to take on colder and colder temperatures and the best
part about this is is you'll handle heat better I can be in 40 30 degree weather
I can be out in the snow I could have a windchill of 20 degrees I've been in
nine degree weather this is Fahrenheit by the way and
nothing but underwear for 30 minutes just walking around why because of the
ice a couple things you should know before you start is if you stay in an
ice bath too long to get a get super hungry and you're gonna hit a crash
afterwards maybe two to three hours after the ice bath if you stand too long
and you get too cold then definitely take a warm or a hot shower or hot bath
until you do warm up this water here is 53 degrees I left it out overnight it's
our second cold day and awesome Texas so it's pretty stoked on it it's time to
get started on this so it's a little bit colder than 55 this is my first cold
water immersion of the year so it's gonna be tough but what I know from
doing this four times in four years in a row this is gonna be really really
really really really tough for the first three to five minutes then I'm gonna hit
a plateau where I can tolerate it where it'll still be cold if I can break
through to that 15 minute mark I'm gonna set my body up for making whatever needs
to make for me to start enduring colder and colder ice baths as we go if I do
that within two weeks of doing three to four ice baths or cold water emergence a
week I'll be able to hit 34 degrees for 20-25 minutes
swimming rivers with ice I don't know pretty self-explanatory just watch me
and for whatever reason you do this find the joy in it so many people do and I
hope it betters your life and get another disclaimer have somebody
watching you my wife is over there taking care of the kids frequently
checking on me all that sort of stuff and if you do go out and hike in a river
like I usually do bring somebody with you and have them sit there out of the
banks freezing just fine before eeeh and enjoyment in
complete bliss a couple other things for you to take note in is it's very
important to have as much of your body submerged as possible it will be very
hard at first for me to get up to my neck it'll just be tough it'll be hard
on my hands left to take them in and out but ultimately you want everything in
now this is a hundred gallon tub I have about sixty gallons in it right now the
water through and through is 53 degrees a lot of people when they measure
temperature they just measure the top inch or they have one of those laser
things that says 32 degrees on top but really it's 70 degrees underneath it's
really how it is so this is 53 degrees from top to bottom of water and of
course if you're a wim hof and you can do the breathing beforehand you don't
necessarily need to but what I will say is if you get really into the ice baths
a breathing dose and so that all being said is gonna suck
not too bad man I wasn't expecting this to be the
four years I've done this this is easily the easiest first ice bath of the season
that I've done now as you saw one of the first things I did was dunk my head in
that to me is important if I can get my whole body into the cold water it helps
with the shock rather than just dipping in one leg at a time or you know just my
waist and my shoulders if I can get it all wet it's a lot easier for me to take
it now as we get more advanced when I submerge my head in the water that's
when I get the most euphoric most amazing meditative experience that you
can only imagine and right now I've only been in probably see well these four
minutes lose track of time when you do this so I remember now that third
benefit this is probably a fourth and a fifth but it's that you feel different
stuff in your body that different things release different areas of your body
that you didn't know how to tension it's kind of like you're doing yoga and they
open up and move you would never think this but in the cold you can loosen up
and readjust your joints in different areas oh then perhaps you thought you
could do before I think I need a bigger table
you know a fun fact is I used to take my heart rate and even blood pressure when
I was in the ice bath I'd keep one arm out and go into those cuffs and whatever
but for my heart rate I had one of those ear monitors and I would get my heart
rate down to 30 beats per minute no I'm not sure how cold it was I think I've
ever written down somewhere but it's probably in like the 40s 40 degree 36
degree area and in there for a while but kind of a crazy 13 minutes
16 17 minutes at this point I'm not cold feel great
I've doing stuff like acrobatic yoga ice baths so pretty awesome we did 25
minutes and 53 degree water that's Fahrenheit it's about 12 degrees Celsius
it ended up kicking up to 55 degrees by the time I got out the coolest things is
after you're done with an ice bath so one of the things after you do cold
water immersion is I always want to stretch some people wanna run and do a
bunch of stuff I just feel like my body is opened up in new ways it's so cool
the one thing that I've tried to do after an ice bath is jiu-jitsu and that
is a bad idea your timings all off but after you do
jiu-jitsu it's great to do an ice bath because that's just awesome
anyway I'm super hungry which is what happens and I don't know feel pretty
good not as euphoric as I'd like but tomorrow we'll get this sucker colder
hope that was beneficial thanks for following me check me out whatever it's
YouTube later

Complete Leopard Gecko Care and Setup Guide | 2018 Edition - Duration: 30:30.
Welcome to the complete Leopard Gecko care guide
Today we're gonna go in depth of every part of reptile
husbandry that I think you need to know
to care for leopard geckos. The things i'm gonna be telling you
are based on my research and experience over the past
4 years. I guess i've cared for over a dozen
leopard geckos now and they've all done wonderfully
So I am confident that everything I'll be giving you
today should be helpful
of course there is more than one way to care for any reptile uh
so remember to do more research
find more resources but i'm gonna tell you
everything that I know about them and how to keep them happy and healthy
Before we get started, goherping has more merchandise
on the shop. No leopard gecko mech right now but
if you keep following, maybe there will be some in the future
there is a few designs over there so you can check that out
also at goherping.com/leopardgeckos you can find the complete
updated care guide of everything I'll be talking about in this video
so you can follow along by reading or it can just be
a great resource to go back to if you have a certain question about
about a specific type of husbandry. Finally, last
thing before we get started, all the supplies I use to care for my leopard gecko
is linked down in the kit below, everything is just laid out
you can buy directly on amazon, you can buy all at once if you want
or select different items you want to use. So if you go to kit.com/goherping or the link below
You can find everything I use
And I also get a partial commission on everything on that list
So its a great way to help out. So now we can get started in the care
First off lets go ahead and get into the enclosure
Size wise there is a lot of argument over this
and everything i'll be talking about in this video but
size is the very first thing. A single leopard gecko, some people will say
can be fine in a 10 gallon
some say 15, some say 20, some say larger
Personally I suggest a 20 gallon or larger for a single leopard gecko
So giving them space to explore is beneficially along with
the fact you'll want a temperature gradient in the enclosure
we'll get to this later when we get to the temperature stuff
so I think giving them this extra space to move around
and explore is pretty beneficially along with the fact
that you'll want a temperature gradient in your enclosure
this means that basically they can choose what temperature they're gonna be
because they are ectothermic or coldblooded
so you want to give them the option to actually be warmer or cooler
since they can't regulate that with their body
but we'll get to that with temperature later but having more space
means that there can be more options as to what temperature
your animal wants to be at
Now what about housing multiple geckos together and how much space will they need
Well I recently did a video
on housing leopard geckos together. I have done it
with 2 or 3 pairs of female geckos
lets go ahead and get this out of the way male geckos will probably fight to the death
a male and females will probably have eggs
which maybe that's what you're into, if you want to breed geckos
This is not the video for you, you'll need to find actual gecko breeders (ss:not bhb)
and 2 females together might sometimes do okay
but like I said, its very iffy
there is a lot of things to it so I suggest go watch the full video I did
On whether you can house them together
Short answer is technically maybe
But its best not to. And if you do still wanna house them together
20 gallons will be pretty tight for two animals
you can use glass, wood, plastic or whatever
kind of enclosure you want. As you can see I tend
to prefer glass but other types do work
these do change different variables
when it comes to the actual husbandry and setting up the right temperatures
and humidity in your enclosure. So basically
I won't even argue about it, just use what you want
as long as it's the right size(ss:within reason), they all work perfectly
fine as long as they're set up correctly
Lets go ahead and hop into substrate
This is probably known as the most
debatable topic when it comes to leopard geckos
you'll often see or hear about
sand. I'm sure this is something you've heard of
if you looked into leopard geckos kind of at all
Should you use sand? Can you use sand? Will it kill them?
How quickly will it kill them
There is a lot of stuff about it. Right off the bat
I have used sand once. I highly regret it
That was not fun
And luckily
I removed it before anything kinda serious happened
Leopard geckos do not live on sand in the wild
They're from places like Afghanistan, its rocky
and i'm sure obviously there is gonna be
dry types of soil around, probably with some sand mixed in
Lets go ahead and get this out of the way
If you think leopard geckos live 100 percent completely on sand in the wild
You're wrong (ss:savage)
To say they don't ever interact with sand
naturally is also pretty wrong because
of course there is gonna be a lot of variation
and they live across a pretty vast landscape uh
however, just bc something is natural doesn't always mean
it's gonna be best. I say this a lot, there are reasons that
animals' lifespans are longer in captivity
than in the wild in most cases. Of course there
are certain species where their husbandry just has not been perfected or if they just
just can't live in captivity like i dunno
Orcas or something. I dunno about sea life don't ask me (ss:pls ask him)
Long story short, leopard geckos
are pretty much always gonna live longer in captivity bc you can take away those dangers
Why is sand dangerous according to some people?
Myself included (ss:and me!)
That's because there's a thing called impaction which in animals
is essentially when their gut just gets filled
with stuff that they either can't digest
or pass when they consume it. The reason not all substrates cause impaction
are many are not loose substrates. A loose substrate
is something that is- ya know is loose
like dirt or sand or
gravel or whatever because its loose, i don't know how else to say it
and non loose substrates are things like paper towels, reptilecarpets
uh tile
newspaper things like that
so I always use non loose substrates but we'll get to some loose substrates in a minute
but anyways back to impaction, uh loose substrates can
be ingested by animals
leopard geckos specifically, they-they just lick everything
that's how they sense stuff
so they're just always gonna be licking and every so often they might pick up
a couple pieces of sand. If they're fed directly
on the substrate, like you just toss an insect in and they
eat it off the substrate. There is a pretty decent chance they're gonna get a mouthful of
substrate with that. Even if you do
feed in a bowl, they still lick a lot of stuff
You might say I'm being over protective
but why not be? Sand isn't that amazing
if it was like some ridiculously amazing
like this 10 times better than any thing else, then I might consider taking that risk
but I don't really see the reason for that when there is so many other
really good options that you can use. And the reason that some of these substrates
will work while sand does not, is that sand is made
from quartz or rocks
and that takes a long time for the body to digest
the stomach acids can eventually break that down but it takes a long time
so this means that it often builds up in the animal
before they can past it or digest it, uh that's why things like
maybe coconut fiber, if an animal ingest some of that
its soft, it's just a type of dirt
its pretty easy to break down and pass, it doesn't get clog
or stuck in the animal. ideally you don't want them to eat any substrate
but that's why sand and walnut shells tend to be on the top
of what you should not use. People also argue
that you can use sand 100% just fine
if your husbandry is perfect
bc you'll have no problems
The thing I don't understand about this argument is just personally
I've gotten so many really depressing emails and pictures
of people's dead animals
why did they die? They get an autopsy, they check it themselves
or whatever, turns out their gut was filled with sand
and they were impacted
they could not ingest any food, they were getting no nutrition
They just basically died. And lets say your husbandry has to be 100%
perfect, whatever that is
in order for it to actually ingest sand
if an animal's husbandry can be 90% perfect and everything is fine
except for the fact it can't pass sand
then is it still really worth taking the risk with sand?
uh for one you can't tell if an animal is impacted
until it's really bad or until its essentially too late
You might be able to do a surgery
For one, its a very tiny animal, it's very hard thing to do that kind of thing
but most of the time, once you can see their gut is completely filled
its kinda just like welp
it might die. Uh I've done a video on impaction
its really old though so I might do an updated one
that;s the best little summery I can do
to say I personally suggest you don't use sand with your leopard geckos
which should you use? Well like I said, I like using non loose substrates
So stuff like -I-I generally use reptile carpet
the thing with reptile carpet is that it can be a little more difficult to clean
like paper towel is nicer bc you can just pull all the sheets out
put new sheets in and it's all clean
but paper towel is kinda ugly. It does the job, it works perfectly
You can feel free to use that. I still use it with
temporary leopard geckos bc it's just easy and efficient
but reptile carpet does look nicer and it can be washed
sometimes I just wash it with water if there is a little bit of stuff on
and occasionally you can just throw it in the wash, throw it in the dishwasher
Some people say that fibers will come off uh and your gecko will eat those
I've used reptile carpet for about 4 years and I have not seen any fibers
on the brands that i've used
that come out at least
I've heard people say their claws will get stuck in it and get torn out
the shortest thing I can say is that I've never had this happen
and I guess anything is possible. There are these little things
personally I do feel comfortable using that
if you don't you can go with newspaper or paper towels (ss:go with paper towels not newspaper)
and although I don't like using loose substrates with leopard geckos
dry coconut fiber is a pretty common option for them
Uh you can get this as eco earth from zoomed
or plantation soil from exoterra
uh the only thing about this is because you want to use it while it's dry
it tends to get dusty in my experience, and I do sometimes
worry that dry animals will end up inhaling a lot of this dust
and, am I being over protective? Maybe but that's how I roll
But I do love using eco earth and other coconut fibers
with animals that need higher humidity
bc it works wonderfully when it is moist
but leopard geckos come from dry areas
and having moist substrates can cause issues which we'll get to soon
that was a long substrate segment but uh hopefully that helps out
lets go get into hiding places for your animal
uh hides are basically a necessity for every reptile out there or at least a lot of the common species
and the reasoning for this is so that they can stay hidden and feel safe and secure
and not just out in the open all the time
how many hides or hiding places should you have
well the very first thing I tend to say is it doesn't necessarily
have to be some like reptile hide
you don't have to buy it from the store and it says like reptile hide
there is a lot of ways to make hiding places for your animal
whether it's using plants, live or fake
different pieces of whatever decor
that they can hide under, hide around, get themselves kinda into
whatever. It doesn't have to be
through like real hides. I use fake plants alot for this
but that is the easiest and most effective way
to make it really nice and dark in there for them
so they feel super comfy. how many hides do you use
well for one gecko, the general rule is to use 3 hides
bc you want one on the warm side of the enclosure
one on the cooler side of their enclosure, which again we'll get to temperatures soon (ss:u said this a long time ago)
and one called a humid hide or a moist hide
or whatever you wanna call it
this hide makes it easier for your gecko to shed off it's skin
because if you don't know, reptiles shed their skin just all in one piece
like people do,mine- I'm kinda shedding right now I guess bc we all are
but geckos, like other reptiles, do it all in one piece
and when it's more humid in a certain area
it loosens up the skin, it's not as crackly and dry
and it just peels off more easily. So you can make it easier for your gecko to do this
By creating a humid hide. Personally I just take a plastic tupperware
tuurperware?
Personally I just take a plastic tupperware, cut a hole in it
make sure to sand it down or melt it or smth so it's not sharp around the edges
and put something like paper towels
or you can use coconut fiber but it gets everywhere so I like using papertowels
and I spray it down every couple of days to keep it moist in there
can I just like
put a moist hide in there when my gecko is shedding?
thats a somewhat common question
The problem is that leopard geckos go into shed so quickly that you can't even tell
like one hour they'll look perfectly normal
an hour later they'll be all like
dull and look like they're bout to shed and a couple hours later it comes off
so this might all happen
in the middle of the night. You might never see your gecko shed
they also eat it bc they reabsorb the nutrients from the shed
it's weird I know. They're just eating their dead skin
but it works, it's efficient, it's effective
that's why you're never gonna see shed in your enclosure
There might be little bits that they missed
and stuck shed is a thing that can happen in geckos
but hides, make as many hiding places as you want
just try and make sure your gecko can stay comfortable on the cool side
comfortable on the warm side
and have a place to go to that is more humid to make it easy to shed
that- hopefully that covers it well
Next up water. This is pretty quick but something that goes in your enclosure
Put a water bowl in there, they might wanna drink
they can go a long time without moisture bc they are from very dry areas
but keeping a water bowl filled with nice fresh clean water
as often as possible is great. You can change it our daily, multiple times a week
multiple times a day if you want, the more the better
I mean that's a lot of water but it works
tap water is something I don't suggest you use
bc it has chemicals like chlorine, chloride and ammonia
uh if you're using city water, well water, it depends on what you, your city, your family or your neighborhood puts in it
But I did whole video talking about all the types of water
short answer is that I have found reptisafe is the most effective
you just add some drops in and its done
but if you want to be cheaper and not spend that much money on reptisafe
there are home remedies you can do to make it safe
again you can watch that video with the i card below or the link below
I mean i card above, link below
Next up to temperature and humidity, first lets go over temperatures
short answer is I keep my geckos at about a 90 to
94 degree hotspot, usually just around 91
if it's 1 degree off, who cares, I mean it's good to be like accurate
but they're not gonna notice, but uh 90
is the general consensus in the community of what works best
based on their natural habitat
and just with breeders and keepers and stuff
uh how should you heat your leopard gecko up (ss:in a mircowave)
some people use heat lamps, some use undertank heaters (uth)
I highly suggest using uth, this is because they're not basking animals (ss:false)
so the quickest and easiest and most
comfortable way to get that heat into your animal
is when the animal can just lie down, get their belly on some heat
and its so nice, well its a heat pad, that's what it does
it heats their belly up, make sure you use a thermostat with these
although technically I do get buy without using a thermostat (ss:DONOTDOTHAT)
with a couple of my animals, it's much harder, its much
more complicated and you can say it's much more riskier
I'll link some thermostats down below
they range from what, 20-50 dollars
but what a thermostat does is that you can just set it at a temperature
and it does it the rest for you. plug the heat mat into the thermostat
you put the probe of the thermostat beneath the enclosure
where you want the temperature to be right and you
just set the thermostat to what you want
now uh what I do is put this to one side of the enclosure
uh there is a lot of sizes to heat mats
some people say you should have a heat mat
that is half the size of your enclosure
thats pretty big, uh usually I go with a quarter to a third of the enclosure
usually a third is best but because leopard geckos are smaller
it's pretty easy to get an area that can cover their entire body
and as the enclosure goes down, as the gecko walks across the enclosure
ideally it's gonna get cooler
the cool side there is no exact number for this
usually I just make sure it goes down to 80 degrees
it could go cooler because if they can get to the warm spot then it doesn't matter too much
but about 80, maybe 75, that's a bit lower
but that works, just so your gecko doesn't over heat
at night, personally I just leave my heat mats on 24/7
because they do have the cooler spaces they can go to
if you want you can turn the heat mats off at night
whether it's cuz you wanna save electricity
i dunno why else, but if you do wanna do that
that can also drop to bout 80
maybe lower, they can like survive in 70 degrees (ss: want to thrive not survive)
they'll probably not enjoy it very much. I would not want to do that for very long
but just somewhere around
the 80-90 degree area at night
on the warm side of the enclosure, and in the middle of course, will just be a random gradient
oh it's 84 degrees here, it's
81 degrees here but your gecko can figure it out from there
as long as it has the options
humidity is quite easy to deal with because there are from pretty dry areas
usually the average house hold will be just fine for it
but essentially just keeping this nice and low will be ideal
dehumidifying an area can be a bit more difficult than actually adding humidity
but it can be done, often the heating just naturally decrease
like
the humidity, it dries it up
but if your humidity is too high the exact numbers varies a lot
personally I would not feel comfortable with a gecko over-
or a leopard gecko over like
50%, 60%
if it was over 60%, then I would be pretty concerned
and at that point they can have things like respiratory issues, other illnesses
their scales and skin may be effected because it's just so damp in there
it's like if you wore shoes that were wet all the time
your feet are not gonna be healthy after awhile
it's that kind of thing, just keep it lower. It doesn't have to be exact
and the humidity hide is the place your animal can go
when it does need that dose of humidity, that dose of moisture
and of course there will be a water bowl in there
uh if your gecko is soaking in the water bowl frequently, this probably means that your
temperatures are way too high in the enclosure and it's trying to cool off
and uh-and snakes and stuff, soaking also means mites
personally I haven't dealt with geckos having mites
so i can't vouch for this personally
but that is another possibility
the animal is trying to sooth the itchiness
of the mites or drown the mites or whatever
uh mites are not very common with leopard geckos but
it's still something good to know about, just don't like panic about it
it really doesn't need to be at the front of your mind
Next up lets go to lighting your enclosure
do you need light, what kind of light
lights, do-do you use them? Um well personally
I kinda just have lights all over the room so that is
generally pretty bright in here during the day
and one, it makes it nice for videos
makes it nice for me to look at and it makes it so that
animals actually know its day time
so leopard geckos are crepuscular animals meaning that they are active during
dawn and dusk hours of the day
lots of people mix this up with nocturnal. It's important that they know when
it is day time so that they're not living in the dark 24/7
why do some many people do that? I don't know. They keep their geckos like in their closet
where it's dark all the time they love it right?
I don't want to be in the sun all the time, it'll be so annoying
just freak out and have a mental breakdown
if it was never dark, well I guess Alaskans can deal with that in certain areas
But i'm, I don't want to and neither does your gecko
give it some day time, give it some night time
a direct lamp is not necessarily required if you have a heat mat under there (ss:don'tthinkthat'showitworks)
even just- there is a window right here
indirect window light is often enough
direct window light might heat your enclosure up, so I don't suggest that
I can- I usually keep animals right by the window
I just have to make sure the pattern of the sun does not shine right into the animal
cuz once it hits the glass, it's gonna heat up and turn into an oven
now what type of light should you use?
So many details, I know (ss:i no 2, I have 2 sub this)
Uh there is lot of different lights. There's just random incandescent , leds
Pretty much any of that works, uvb is a little bit different
I'll get to that in just a second, but red lights
that's a very common option, animals cant see them right?
No they can see them, they just might not always see the color
i- I don't know why they exist honestly
I mean they work for heat usually
but why does it have to be red? They can see it, it's just sometimes a little dimmer
Keeping a red light on at night is a big o nono in my book
uh just cuz thats
kinda the equivalent to it always being bright
That does for any animal btw
Now I guess you could use a red light during the day if you wanted to
Some people have told me that eventually red lights will damage your animal's eyesight
I personally haven't seen proof for this yet, I've only looked into it a little bit
So is a red light actually dangerous, it's hard to say (ss:there is proof, just ask him later)
it's another debate
I haven't had bad luck with it but I also don't often use red lights
UVB is the other thing
a lot of people will say I wouldnt keep any animal without uvb
Crepuscular animals, like I said before, are active during the dawn and dusk hours
now during these hours its
its been shown that uvb uh rays from the sun
are really, pretty nonexistant
they're very dull and there's really not much that you can benefit from the sun during these hours
this means leopard geckos naturally do not really get any uvb out in the wild
since they will be hidden away and sleeping during the day
so uvb is not something I would consider a requirement
the other thing is though, many people say that albino animals
are damaged by uvb bc their skin
are much more delicate and sensitive
and the uvb can do more harm than good
there is not a ton of research on this yet (ss:there is) until there is, I just say don't use
uvb on albino leopard geckos
it gets even spicier if you get into the world of
animals that are albino but still need uvb
but we won't get into that today
Now lets go ahead into food
what should your gecko eat? how often
and what should you supplement with
They are 100% insectivores, no veggies, no fruit
No... meat... just-just stick to insects
please heh. Either crickets, mealworms, dubias
superroach- superroaches heh. Superworms
other types of roaches, other types of worms, wax worms
hornworms, calciworms. There's a lot of options
the 4 most common that are fed to leopard geckos
are crickets, mealworms, superworms and dubia roaches
now leopard geckos are a pretty weird species
bc they often just decide they don't like a food anymore
for example, Goldie my leopard gecko
4 years ago when I got him,the- he was being fed super worms by the breeder
all a sudden he was like neh I don't like superworms
so I had to start trying a bunch of insects and he started eating
mealworms? maybe it was crickets and then eventually he was like
i don't- i don't really want crickets and then he switched to mealworms
and they often times they will eat lots of different stuff
we had some of the weirdest, pickiest geckos ever
there was one that would eat nothing but superworms
and we just started buying every insect on earth and finally superworms
was the thing that it took, so basically what i'm trying to say is that
although I'm about to suggest the insects that I prefer
your gecko might not agree and you're just gonna have to go with what it wants
I use to feed just meal worms
but dubias are often considered the healthiest
and even if they aren't the healthiest, they tend to be the softest
like you can just tell that they are softer and easier to digest
unfortunately I've had bearded dragons and leopard geckos
that can't just digest the hard shell of mealworms and superworms
and it'll come straight out in their poop undigested
and that's just doesn't seem okay with me
but dubias are consistently given the animals some nice
solid but soft poops
I know you wanted to know that. I mean it's important
for them to poop well and
dubias seem to be the best way to do that
a lot of you are gonna say but i- I live in florida
or I live in canada where uh dubias are illegal
so sorry about that, luckily there are plenty of other options
I've avoided crickets for 4 years now bc they're just the worse
they stink, they're loud, they escape
I kill them really easily
but they do work, I can't hate on them too much bc they keep animals alive
I still hate them tho but I mean
it's just a personal grudge
it's fine, theyre healthy, they keep your animal doing well
but dubias are my insect of choice and a variety is always good
to have. You can get lots of other types to just occasionally give them
the only thing about variety is that your animal might refuse them
but it doesn't hurt to try it. Next up is supplements
there are three different types of supplements know to be used
with leopard geckos. There is calcium with d3
calcium without d3
and a multivitamin supplement
I don't super understand the breakdown of each little components in these
so i'll just tell you what I do
and what's been working based on my research
and when I dust my insects, I dust it with
multivitamins and calcium with d3
the ratio I use is about a 1/4 multivitamin to a 1/3 multivitamin
with the rest being the calcium wiht d3
so I usually just do 1/3 multivitamin
2/3 calcium with d3
you can mix this all up
I just have a container with this mixture already done
or you can just do it every third feeding
you give them multivitamin instead of calcium
leopard geckos are pretty good at knowing when they need more or less calcium
so what people often do
is put a little bowl of calcium in the enclosure
this bowl is calcium without d3
why, I will try to explain it but
its better if you refer to other people for that because i'll just be copying what other people will say
but it works just fine
they're happy and comfortable doing that
uh overdosing with calcium is something we rarely often see
about half the animals, or well half the leopard geckos we've gotten in here
will usually have calcium over doses
you can tell bc there will be these big squishy packets under their armpits
like literally you can squish them and it's just big o'
lumpy bubble. This means that you're feeding your animal too much calcium
all you have to do is bring it back
maybe take the calcium out, put less in their food
and over a couple of weeks to a couple months, usually it just
a few weeks works for us of no calcium at all
and it'll be back to normal then just feed them with less calcium than before
and that should be fine
uh if they have big squishy packets for just a little bit
that should be fine but in the long run just
it's good to avoid it so that their calcium
overdose does not cause something more severe in the gecko
how often you should feed is very hard to say
because every gecko is different
The tail of your gecko is the best gauge as to how fat or
thin they are. You want a nice
chunky meaty tail (ss:O.O)
but you don't want other parts
of their body to look to flabby themselves
and a thinner tail, if its- if it's looking like a crested gecko's tail
you're having some problems. Its really depressing seeing those
it needs to be nice and fat
uh again without the rest of their body showing it
so if they have flabs around here
up here or around their neck, then maybe you're feeding them too much
their tail is where they keep their fat reserves
so... like... if they end up starving
they can live a long time off what's in their tail
but personalty I essentially free feed my
my- Goldie, my leopard gecko, dubias
They're pretty much always in his bowl and he doesn't like eat himself to death
he's not a fish or anything. However sometimes you might have to actually regulate it
whether it's a couple dubias every couple days
a lot of dubias
twice a week or whatever. There is lots of ways to do it
and it's hard to tell you what you should actually do
especially since its based on the insect
but when I
get a new gecko and I'm not sure how much to feed it
I kinda just watch it and see how much it eats every day and take out what it doesn't eat
just so that I can keep track and if it's getting too fat
I reduce it, if it's not gaining enough
I might just keep the food in there or change to a slightly fattier insect
Leopard geckos are often known to be pretty docile
Pretty good at handling. Some are more often scared
Especially if they haven't been handled in the past
and others are just perfectly fine with it from the start
we had few little geckos that have come in from like hoard conditions
and immediately they just crawl out and crawl all over you and it's so cute
don't be discourage if your gecko does not do this
if you work with it
uh frequently, uh maybe a few minutes every day
or a few times a week for like 10
or 15 minutes, just getting it use to handling will help
if the gecko starts getting scared, don't just immediately put it back
bc if it knows it can just defend itself and get away
then it'll just keep doing it, just keep handling it
just show it that it's okay
leopard gecko do bite, it's not common
it surprisingly hurts more than you might think
but in the end it's really more like you're basically not ever gonna draw blood
it's not gonna break your bone or anything
it's just gonna be a nice pinch on the finger or where ever they bite you
but uh don't let the fear or discouragement of a bite
stop you from handling it, just keep working with it
a little bit at a time
right when you get your gecko it's best to give it a few days
to actually adjust to the new home
it might be good to make sure it starts eating before you do it
because there can be a lot of stress in a new place
but in the end, they're often a great animal that you can play around with and handle
and get cute pictures of with
don't forget that they can drop their tails, like i said, this is their fat reserves
its very important. We've had geckos with dropped tails
and its- it does grow back surprisingly quickly in a number of weeks
but it can be a bit more risky
you have to be really on top of things (ss:talk any slower?)
um bc they might not have as much nutrition at that time
don't worry about it, I've never had a gecko drop it's tail when I've been caring for it
and I have over the years accidentally pulled at their tails or whatever
avoid that as much as you can
but most of the time you should be all good
worse case scenario they do drop their tail
and it'll need a little more attention here or there
but don't let that stop you from getting that gecko
so there we go (ss:hallelujah) i'm pretty sure I covered everything
I'm gonna be editing this and realize like
I forgot that thing I wanted to say but uh that's why you can go and check out the
leopard gecko care guide at goherping.com/leopardgeckos
cuz I update that super frequently
again all the supplies I use are linked below
I coown a company called emerald scales that sells animals
so you can check that out
its still generally small so we might not have leopard geckos at the time
but you can follow our emerald scales on instagram
and keep up to see what's new. Again merchandise
we got uh frogs and snakes right now
maybe more to come, you can check that out at goherping.com/shop
hopefully this helps you
on the channel I do lots of care guides and other reptile stuff
if you're still watching (ss:unfortunately) then cool, you're like a dedicated
researcher and I appreciate that
again don't forget to google some other things
to compare sources and other stuff
to make sure I didnt mess anything up
hopefully that helps, feel free to ask questions
join the discord or facebook (ss:discord>fb) if you want more help
I'm plugging a lot of stuff right now
but I think that's everything
So I'm Alex (ss:and i'm dead)
And thanks for watching

Where is he?
What took you so long?
You're supposed to be my ride to school, now I'm going to be late!
Okay first of all
I don't know why you're in such a hurry to go to a political science class.
Because I wanna learn about the creation of the constitiution
and how it affects our modern day society.
Duh!
I don't know what you just said but
I'm eating right now so I'm in my happy place and you're
kinda killing my vibe.
Ooh!
So sorry I interrupted your donut session.
What
Did you just say?
So sorry I interrupted your donut session.
You better put some respect on Pan Dulce's name this is nothing like a donut!
That's what it looks like.
Okay! Okay! It's not a donut!
What is it then?
Uhh
It's only the most delicious thing to ever grace this planet!
It's a Mexican pastry Chris
Oh
Okay
So was it really that good?
Try it for yourself.
Whoa
Yeah
It tastes like I just bit into a mountain of deliciousness
Hand crafted
by baby Jesus himself!
No, no!
It tastes like a unicorn fell from the sky
and landed on this fluffy piece of bread
and this!
Is the result of that!
Okay, okay I get it! It tastes good.
It's delicious!
So
this
is called Pan Dulce?
Well yes and no.
Pan Dulce is the general term for Mexican pastries
But what you are holding is probably the most popular type of Pan Dulce called
A Concha
Concha
Wait
So there's other types of
Pan Dulce
Yeah
There's hundreds
So where do you find this?
I don't think I've ever seen this in a Starbucks before?
Oh no
You won't find these at Starbucks.
You have to go to a Panaderia.
Panda...
ria?
Yeah
It means bakery in Spanish.
Wait
Do you wanna go to one?
Uhh no, I have to go to class remember
Nope
We're going to
a Panaderia.
Okay, I guess I'll just fail my class then.
And this

Aww man
It smells like heaven.
And puppy breath
How do you know what
Puppy breath
Smells like?
You don't want to know.

Anyway
Let me show you
the different kinds of Pan Dulce.
Wait!
What are you doing? You Shouldn't be back there!
Relax!
This is my tío's shop.
Oh!

Well
This
is called
a cuerno
It's shaped like a horn, hence the name, cuerno.
And
This is called galleta.
This just looks like a big cookie.
Yeah that's pretty much what it is.
And
This
is called an empanada
They're filled with various flavors like pineapple, sweet cream, apple
and anything really.
These are actually a huge reason of...
why I'm fat.
Oh!
Well it looks good can I try it yet?
Nevermind.
Anyway
These are just a couple types of Pan Dulce.
As you can see
there's way more!
Hey!

Complete Overwatch Competitive Guide (2018) - Duration: 27:16.
if there is anything you don't know about overwatch even if you've been
playing overwatch for a long time I'm going to be covering literally
everything that you should need to know about overwatch from basics to high tier
advanced concepts my name is nate and welcome to Blizzard guides. I'm going to
be covering three sections basics intermediate stuff and then advanced
concepts in the basics I'm just gonna be talking about hero roles so I'll explain
what it means to play tank and the differences between main tank and off
tank and main healer and off Euler and just a bunch of stuff like that on top
of that also give you some tips about team comms so that you can know what
works where in the intermediate section I'm going to be explaining teamfights
call-outs positioning and game mode strategies since I know that's something
that a lot of players need to know about and then finally in the Advanced section
I'm just gonna be going over the OLT economy creating space and then counter
faking I'll hook you up with some timestamps in the description as well as
menus in the video just to show you what time stamp you need to go for each
section so if you want to skip ahead I don't hate you
go ahead but with that said let's hop into this video so welcome welcome to
the basics don't worry if you've stopped by you're not bad if you've stopped at
this section it's just easiest to call it basics if your person looking to
learn more on how to play the game seriously or do you just don't play it
too often you're in the right section there are three parts to this section so
part one is all about hero roles so first off we've got the damage category
or the DPS category DPS just refers to damage per second or you know just the
fact that they can actually do damage like the name implies their job is to
you know do damage you can roughly kind of put them into categories but it is
super loose so if you play a lot don't wonder me for saying this I'm just
trying to give a basis to learn from so first off you've got the flankers which
are the very mobile heroes whose goal is just to get in and deal bursts of damage
or just to harass the enemy team these guys usually die easily if they're not
moving so you want to be as annoying as possible and as safe as possible these
are generally the fastest and most aggressive on the supports then there's
the area of denial heroes whose goal is to gain control of an area and make it
dangerous to pass through these guys get a lot of hate but they're still
really good at their job and finally there's the ranged heroes whose job is
to control high ground but they're also usually easier kills because they don't
have that much mobility these heroes are a much more difficult to master Bunch
but there's still some of the better ones currently now keep in mind that
these are very loose fits and these heroes have their own places so don't
take this completely as the standard for example like I put Reaper in the flanker
category but he's definitely way more of a tank buster and he can be run in a lot
more of non flanker stuff so please comment section just don't don't hate on
me for putting Reaper in that section or any of the others for that matter but
after the damage category I'm going to be talking about the tanks tanks define
the battlefield they 100% control the pace of the fight because they have
larger health pools and lower damage and also their abilities are just focused on
providing safety for their team tanks come in two flavors main tank and
off tank main tanks are Reinhardt Winston and Arisa main tanks don't do as
much damage as off tanks but they do block a lot of damage they're the ones
that really create the battlefield and control the way the fight feels they're
absolutely the best I mean if you can't tell I really love main tanks of Tanks
includes aryadeva road hog and wrecking ball or they
sometimes call him hamster or Hammond but wrecking balls is official name the
off tank helps out the main tank but also tries to take damage before their
lower health friends so basically you'll body block or use some of the defensive
capabilities that you have in the example of Zarya or diva they do way
more damage than the main tanks so they're a bit more kill hungry than the
main tanks now it's pretty important to note that it's pretty bad if you don't
run a main tank and an off tank so make sure that you have both there's only one
situation where you would really want to off tanks which is diva and wrecking
ball but otherwise you you really do want one of each because of that there's
a alot of tank pairs that just pretty much always stick together first off
there's the brawl tanks which is reinhardt and Zarya then there's the
dive tanks which is winston diva and wrecking ball and then there's the
bunker tanks which is Arisa and hogs and then the last and second coolest role
after my favorites the tanks were at the supports supports are the ones that keep
their team from doing stupid things by healing
damage that they take on top of providing other stuff that the supports
can do which could be extra damage extra speed or strong CC supports can't fight
very well except dump brig and since they keep their team alive they're the
most common targets to attack and oh actually they're also usually called
healers since they heal a lot so if I say healers I also mean supports
supports like tanks are split up into main healers and off Euler's main
healers includes mercy Anna and Moira and they're way more focused on the
actual healing than the secondary stuff that they can provide the oculars on the
other hand which includes zenyatta lucio and Frigg are way more
focused on the value that they provide outside of healing which is everything
from defensive Ultimates and speed boosts to extra damage and beating the
crap out of anything and everyone in the huh Briggs case so like with the tanks
you just want to have one main healer and one-off Euler and the off healer
usually protects the main healer so at part number two what you might have
figured out is that having two tanks two supports and two damage dealers is the
standard of overwatch people will usually call this two two two riding at
2 / 2 / 2 1 main tank went off tank to DPS
1 mana healer and one off healer you normally pick things that work based on
the map DPS that work based on the map or of those tanks that you picked and
then supports that work with the tanks for the DPS there are a bunch of
different two to two comps that you can pick so I'm not gonna go over all of
them some of them though are super common like dive which includes Winston
Deva Genji tracer Lucio and ana but that
doesn't get played too much because of you know break existing dive comp is
literally a comp based off of dive tanks so you'll pick DPS and supports that
don't have a problem with speedy fast allies DPS can be picked per map if they
are exceptionally good on one map so for example Ilyas ruins a really favorite
Widow but you'll find that if the tanks do well on a specific map and they also
combo well with specific DPS then those DPS will also do well on that map so
what I'm trying to say is tank good map DPS also good on that map so you can
either pick the DPS based on the tank or the map now normally people run two to
two but there are also times where you're allowed to break that rule
because somebody at Blizzard to accidentally turn the dial
some hero way too high currently triple tank triple support also known as goats
is super strong it's basically Reinhardt Divas aria Lucio Brigitta and Moira
goats is really mean and I don't like it there's a lot of super specific stuff
like this that comes up though every once in a while just because of the meta
so triple tank triple support in particular is a super hyper and super
aggressive comp that relies on the speed buff from Lucio the group healing
firmware to enable the tanks and Brigitta to output high damage while
receiving high healing from the area of effect from Lucio and Brigitta but in
normal words it's just very fast and very strong and for the unorganized
teams that don't have two tank players to DPS players and two supports players
which you will find a lot in your ranked games you probably just want at least
one of each role unless you're doing a super special comp like triple tank
triple support without at least one tank or support your team's forget how to
actually stay alive for more than 1/8 of a second and without at least when DPS
teams can't kill nothing so unless you're running Satan's comp like goats
you probably want at least one of each role so finally for the last part in
this section at part number 3 let's go through the laws of the land for picking
a 2/2 to comp first you gotta pick tanks that are decent on the map overwatch
likely isn't too picky about what tanks are run on which map but there are
obviously options that are superior to other options brawl tanks are really
good for close quarters dive tanks are really good for maps with many angles
that the brawl cop can't block and bunker cops are really good for holding
specific areas chokes and the payload aka camping the hell out of a corner
secondly DPS are typically picked based on the map of the tank which I already
mentioned if the map is open and it has a lot of good angles snipers and ranged
healers are good or heroes with a lot of mobility if the tanks can keep up with
your super speed if the map is close quarters flankers and area of denial
heroes are best and finally any healers are generally good but some healers do
well with specific tanks DPS or support so like for example mercy synergize is
really well with Farah and I with Reinhardt and Lucio with Anna so you can
kind of synergize somewhat there but really you're just gonna be picking your
healers based on the value that they provide and also the defense of
Ultimates so if the enemy team has a lot of really good offensive Ultimates like
saria's graviton sir Ganges blade honza's dragon you probably
want something that has transcendence aka Zen or sound barrier a que Lucio so
with that I'm done with the basics section let's move on to the more
intense concepts so hello there and welcome to the intermediate section here
I'm gonna be talking about teamfights callouts positioning and objective
strategies if you play a bit of comp and you really want to go all in or you're
just starting to take it seriously now you're in the right spot I'm gonna be
having four parts to this section starting us off at part one we've got
team fights team fights aren't an official overwatch thing but it's still
something that everyone agrees on just like the entire community agrees that
brigitta is broken team fights are just fights
where the entire six-member team fights the entire other six members of the
enemy team if your entire team attacks the enemy team and has all teammates
still standing the objective is pretty much free to capture if you use all of
your potential therefore you just want to tack all together so that the full
fighting power is in effect team fights that have four different specific phases
so first off there's the poking phase this is the phase where the attacking
team will move forward try and gain a pick and not lose a member while the
defensive team protects the objective the defensive team is usually sticking
to one spot where it is easiest to defend and the attacking team is
following a path usually through a choke to the objective it is way easier for
defensive teams to hold chokes so most team fights start at or before the choke
point in the poke phase you're not gonna want to use all of your abilities you're
better off coming up with the plan of who you're attacking
how are you gonna do it where you're going what else you're gonna be using
and all of that once your team has the full master plan trademark pending in
effect you're going to be jumping in and moving into the engagement phase after
the pope phase you're in the engagement phase this is where you're going to be
dumping all of your ease cues shifts and Mike spams and tempting to get huge
picks on the enemy team like main tanks supports or carry DPS carry DPS
literally meaning DPS that are performing well it's not like how some
games have a specific meaning to carry DPS I literally just mean good DPS
players this is the part where most picks happen but it only does last a few
seconds once both teams have engaged you begin the
mid-fight this is where the fight lasts the longest where teams start to forget
their plan and start doing their own thing you're gonna have to be dealing as
much damage as you can focusing and trying to get your teammates to kill
enemies that might have olt get your Ultimates out and then in the
end just clean the floors with the enemy some heroes do way better the longer the
teamfight and some do better the quicker either
because of abilities that require damage to be dealt or the fact that they don't
do well after they've used up all their abilities or just because they have
specific abilities that let them get a big advantage in the fight the longer
that the fight draws out examples would include mercy resurrecting an ally or as
are you getting more charge as the fight draws out letting her do way more damage
and gain way more old the mid fight is where your team is most likely to be
split up though so you've really got to be on top of your game calls are ideal
here so make sure that you stick by for the call-out sections that you have a
little bit of understanding what you should be doing so finally after the
winning team has clearly gained more picks the cleanup phase begins this is
usually a 4 V 2 or a 3 V 1 there is still a chance to win the fight if
you're the losing team though but that requires that your brain go into
overclocker mode and make some crazy smart plays so don't count on it cleanup
is its own face though just because there is still a chance for staggered
responds meaning that the first kill that your team got has respawn and
returned to the fight helping out his last few teammates that are alive you
need to clean up and completely kill the enemy team members in this phase
otherwise you cannot defend or capture the objective a super important thing to
note though is that the team that gets the first pick almost always wins the
first fight so capitalizing on that is a huge deal if you get first pick you're
gonna have a significant advantage next up at part number two we've got
call-outs and overwatch there are three basic types of call outs first and
foremost there are just target calls this is basically calling out out of
position enemies or easy kills or just low-health targets this lets your team
focus on them and kill them a lot faster and a lot easier examples would include
kill Zen Zen one Zen out of position focused Zen Zen feeding or simply
screaming Zen a lot into the mic following that though we've got position
call outs because overwatch doesn't have a standard position call out guide
probably because of the amount of maps most players just use relative
positioning pretty much you just say stuff like Winston stop right Winston's
behind when sin in our spawn Winston on our side Winston on point
or dear God Winston's right on my head somebody please help me also I don't
have much time to go into the specific per map call-outs so I'm just planning
on releasing a separate guide for all position call-outs sometime soon so
maybe consider getting subscribe so that you don't miss that but finally there
are going to be some shot calling call-outs that don't really fit into the
first two types and just fit into their own general shotcalling quote-unquote
section calling out to help or to peel allies just means using your abilities
to kill the attacker on that ally to heal that ally or to use protection
abilities on that ally or maybe to just provide a distraction for that Ally so
if somebody says help Ana or appeal for Ana or I need Pele or I need help or
anything like that that's usually what that means calling old sir just saying
no more alts happens a lot so listen up when somebody says that calling
positions or three two ones is another thing that happens a lot so basically
teams will say let's go left side or get ready we're gonna go in three two one
let's go also alternatively there is also the fallback and push up calls that
usually just means follow your team or I guess maybe your main tank to that
location if you're the one calling this you have to call spots that either force
the enemy into uncomfortable positions or your team into ideal positions that
favor your abilities don't just blindly call hey we should probably try left
side now or we'll probably try a right side this time you have to actually know
where you're going and calling it and why you're calling it otherwise just
don't worry about it and let somebody else try and call it out
so speaking of positions at part number three let's talk about each roles
positioning positioning in overwatch is easy once you understand it if you're a
tank you should generally be the first thing that the enemy sees and you got to
take the damage first if your are a tank that is a dive tank you want to play far
back and then jump in during the engagement phase of the teamfight
and play deep after that if you're a brawl tanking you probably want to play
a bit more Ford because of your lack of range and suppress the enemy as much as
possible or basically just be as annoying and in their face as you can
realistically be if you're a bunker tank playing in an easy controllable area is
ideal and only playing aggressive in the cleanup phase is the norm I'm pretty
sure I mentioned it earlier but it's just camping really hard in one corner
if you are a DPS player you almost always want to control high ground or
choke points you should be either behind your tanks in between your tanks are
supports or by your supports if you're easily punishable because you don't move
fast to play with your supports and on high ground if you're mobile you should
play near your tanks behind the enemy if you're actually good or far back and
then engaging quickly and playing deep however what that said let's say that
your support keeps getting killed by it I don't know maybe they're tracer then
it's a good idea to maybe switch to something that can see see the tracer
and kill her and play near your support so that your support doesn't die too
much as a DPS you're more able to quickly get to people that are in need
and deal damage to the attacker that's on that person that's a need because
your tanks still do have to protect your team from the general damage so if
there's ever situation where your supports are dying way too quickly or
maybe your tank you can switch to a DPS that will help out I know that's
typically not under the DPS kit but it's something that you should do regardless
just because ranked games are unorganized and players don't know what
the heck they're doing 90% of the time now if you're playing a
support you should be playing back unless the enemy team has a flanker in
which case you should play closer to your TPS like I mentioned if the enemy
has a sniper you should also play your angles very carefully or extremely close
to your tanks if you're an off Uhler you should 100% be more inclined to stick
with the bulk of your team or at least very close to your main healer if you
are a main healer though you probably want to position near what can help you
based on what is harassing you so like I said if there's a tracer on you you
probably want to play closer to your DPS and if there's a sniper you want to play
closer to your tank and finally the last part of this
section at number four we're going to be going into game mode strategies so for
assault you've got to be using strong old combos to quickly wipe the enemy on
attack if there's anyone that's struggling and not dying fast you're
gonna have a problem with the response it's super annoying
you really have to manage the enemies that are trickling in the defensive team
builds alts slightly faster than the attacking team so it's also important
that you are careful with your Ultimates and make sure that your ultimate aren't
canceled by the defending teams Ultimates
if you're playing on defense you got to go for those huge protections on the
enemy team's ultimate by paying attention to the amount of damage that
they're healing and dealing you then also got to use your Ultimates to
counteract the enemies Ultimates and then on top of that you just need to get
massive picks early in the fight so that your team doesn't get attacked with full
force if you get a teammate picked early on you're probably going to lose the
objective there so definitely just don't do that don't don't die early but for
the payload on attack you need to stagger your ultimate so that each time
the defensive team tries to retake the objective you use an ultimate or two so
that they don't have the opportunity to actually win the game losing friends
isn't as bad on assault but you still have to push up a lot and make sure that
the stuff in front of the payload isn't super dangerous if you're on defense you
don't want the enemy team to control anything in front of the cart so you
want to wipe the enemy really cleanly and carefully add a spot that is really
easy to hold like a corner or a choke point and then use that choke point or
corner to your advantage it makes it really hard on the attacking dudes to
actually get anywhere with the cart so just keep that in mind always always
hold a corner once you have control of the objective for control finally if you
have control of the objective winning fights with one or two alts is what you
should be doing controlling the part of the map where your team holds best so
for example if your team has range having your tanks either play up or
behind and having your range damage dealer safe is the smartest thing to do
if you've got a dive bump you want to play back and engage on the attacking
team whenever they try and retake the point if you're a bad player and you
don't have control of the objective you want to use your olds quickly to wipe
the enemy team a lot like when you play a tech on assault except you want to be
careful not to use all year olds since you'll need a few to defend the point
after all so I was just kidding about being bent you probably will use the
point a lot I just I needed something to spice up
the voice-over so you don't fall asleep but now we've blasted through the
intermediate section let's slide on down to the advanced concepts congratulations
you've made it to the Advanced section here I'm covering a lot of stuff that
you should to have some exposure to just because you've played comp consistently
but I'm also explaining it so that you don't have to spend your time picking up
bits and pieces here and there from random streams or random ranked games
it's stuff that's crucial to ranking up and getting a lot better so there's a
chance that you probably know a bit about these things but I'm going further
in depth and more comprehensive than most of the things that you've probably
heard I'm going to cover alt economy creating space and counter picking so at
part number one ultimate economy just means the amount of old charge that your
team has controlling the economy means using specific Ultimates to stop enemy
Ultimates using your ultimate to gain ultimate charge for your friends or just
using Ultimates in some order so that you don't waste all of your Ultimates in
one go like a noob this means that you actually have to plug in your mic to
communicate if you have old how close you or your enemy is to old in the order
that you're going to be using year-olds now it's important to note that there
are three types of Ultimates and their uses specifically for the ultimate
economy first off you've got the damage dealing or kill confirming Ultimates
which only get kills and it's basically your Call of Duty close your brain and
frag out stuff you're not actually increasing the amount of ultimate charge
your teammates have as a matter of fact you're actually taking away but it's
still good because you're only using it to see you know secure or defend an
objective then on top of that there are the buffing slash defensive Ultimates
which provide protection or allow allies to do more damage these are basically
your make everything strong abilities they're almost always all support
abilities so stuff like Ana's nano boost or zan Yanis transcendence these
Ultimates are not only for keeping teammates alive but they're also
forgiving allies ways to deal more damage and get more ultimate charge so
for example nano boosting a high charge Saria gives her way more old charge
because she goes crazy with the amount of damage that she can do she does more
damage and she gets more old charge similarly if you use defensive Ultimates
like transcendence or lucio speed allows your team to go in deeper and get more
old charge and finally there are also those area of denial or area of effect
Ultimates that alone don't do very much but combined with other Ultimates or
abilities and be super crazy good notable and very
obvious examples include Ryan Hertz earth shatter saris graviton surge and
summer is EMP these Ultimates can either be used to confirm kills of combo'd well
defend objectives or just give teammates old charge so a great example of good
old economy and management would be a Zarya grabbing two or three enemies
letting a reinhardt still play of the game and get enough old charge to get
his shatter and then using his shadow next fight to allows kenji to dash
through and pick up old charge which means that you use these Ultimates to
provide allies with a boost in old economy basically you're chaining
ultimate on top of that there are also ways of using defensive Ultimates so
Malusi owes ensign Yanis to counter enemy Ultimates so let's say if your
team is grabbed using transcendence can prevent the enemy Ganges dragon blade to
deal damage to your teammates effectively nullifying the value of both
graviton and dragon blade of the enemy team you want to use Ultimates in such a
way that it basically cancels out enemy Ultimates get skills or provides your
team with Ultimates using these in tandem based on what kind of status your
Ultimates are out is ideal so for a quick example let's say that you have
all six Ultimates you're probably not going to want to use Ultimates to
provide your teammates with Ultimates and rather you're just gonna use them to
get quick team wipes and win fights however you need to make sure that you
don't waste all of your Ultimates in one go it's paying attention to how your old
status is doing across all of your teammates and using Ultimates based on
that that really truly wins games so next up at part number two we're gonna
go over creating space creating space is a really weird thing basically creating
space is just a concept that is crucial to tanks but still also applies to DPS
or supports what creating space means is it's just forcing the enemy back through
the use of abilities such as Deadeye deflecting or diving as Winston or
shielding and walking forward as Ryan etc if you're forcing the enemy
backwards you're going to be opening up angles for your DPS or areas for your
supports to be in so that your DPS can miss more shots without dying
creating space is easier whenever you have an advantage so like if the enemy
Anna needs to heal their Kenji because your McCree landed the headshot on them
then you can play aggressive as Ryan onto the enemy Ryan since the Ana's
attention is away and then the Rhinehart with less heals aka the about to lose
enemy we'll lose health quicker forcing him
backward opening up space for your McCree to not die under three seconds
you can do this from any role but knowing when space is opened up and when
you can open up space is super important for success on any role it comes down to
recognizing where the resources of the enemy team is going so that you can
abuse the fact when resources are taken away from an enemy and then you can
focus them or put pressure on them so that they have to back up and eventually
everything from their enemy team backs up because generally when one person
backs up everyone else backs up so finally at part number three at the last
part of the video counter picking overwatch is heavily centered around the
idea of counter picking so knowing what types of heroes counter each other is
ideal unfortunately I cannot get into the specifics because I put way too much
into this video but basically let's go with the obvious example that pretty
much everybody that's played a bit of overwatch has known now so for example
if you're playing zenyatta and you're getting repeatedly killed by the enemy
tracer which is an obvious counter tracer counter sunyata then switching to
Brigitta to counter the tracer is a super smart move you absolutely need to
really do this way more than you think you should because it really makes games
way easier pick up a few heroes that are all counters to each other so for
example I'm just eyeballing one out we could say Winston Reaper and Widowmaker
Reaper counters Winston Winston counters Widowmaker and Widowmaker somewhat
counters reaper by playing Reaper against the Winston you know what kind
of things Winston's are gonna be doing which in turn teaches you what Winston
will do against a Widowmaker and you can just kind of synergize all of that
information that you're learning in a smart super intelligent way so that you
learn the counters and yeah it's a really bad example I know but you kind
of get what I'm saying I I hope though I just I don't know why people don't do it
more it's literally free sr that they're just too lazy to pick up and also a
really quick thing taken into account that on assault the defensive team spawn
is way further back than the attacking team spawn so you can actually pick
easily counter world heroes on the first point and do well since the enemy team
probably won't have much time to switch to your counter so for example playing a
Farah is a good option on certain to CP maps on first point since the enemy team
might not have hitscan and might not time to switch though this doesn't
always work so your mileage may vary but just keep that in mind it can save your
games at times but anyway I hope you guys enjoyed this one I spent way too
much time on this video and I spent a lot of time on it so I really do hope

Cozumel, Mexico Cruise Port Guide 2018: Puerta Maya Tips and Overview - Duration: 5:37.
TheJellyBeans.net
Cozumel is Mexico's largest Caribbean island and is located off the eastern coast of the
Yucatan peninsula.
Cruise ships visiting Cozumel dock at one of three piers on the island's western shore
near the town of San Miguel.
In this video, we'll provide an overview of the Puerta Maya Cruise Center, which is
located at the largest of the three piers and is roughly two and a half miles south
of San Miguel.
Be careful not to confuse this cruise center with Costa Maya, which is located much further
south on the Yucatan peninsula.
The Puerta Maya Cruise Center is typically where Carnival, Princess, and Holland America
ships dock.
However, ships from other cruise lines also dock there from time to time.
To find out if your cruise ship will be docking at the Puerta Maya Cruise Center, check the
Cruise Center's Port Schedule for the day you'll be in port.
After you dock and exit your ship, you'll walk a short distance along the pier to a
large gift shop.
Walk through the gift shop and exit on the other side to access the Cruise Center.
Just past the gift shop and the end of the pier, you'll find the gathering location
for cruise passengers taking ship-sponsored excursions.
Several excursions are available, including visits to the nearby Mayan ruins, adventure
sports, and all-inclusive beach experiences.
Like many other ports, shopping at the Cruise Center is located just steps away from where
the ships dock, with many retail stores offering freebies and raffles.
Check the port shopping guides that are handed out on the ship for more details.
Also within the Cruise Center, you'll find shops offering samples to attract customers,
several eateries, if you'd like to grab a bite to eat or drink
massages
fish pedicures
public restrooms, and more.
Although the Peso is the official currency and Spanish is the official language, we had
no trouble paying with US Dollars and speaking English with the merchants.
And while there's not a beach with access to the water at the Puerta Maya Cruise Center,
there are some sun loungers available at a man-made "beach" area.
Swimming is prohibited.
If you're a fan of kitschy photos, there are quite a few opportunities for fun snapshots
at the Cruise Center.
There are also two locations to take photos with a Puerta Maya sign in the background.
The first sign is located inside the Cruise Center and can be accessed by turning left
after leaving the pier.
You'll find the photo spot just after the ferry pier.
The second sign is located just outside of the Cruise Center, soon after you exit the
gates to the area where the taxis pick up.
To find this exit, look for the thatched roof covered walkway.
The taxis in this area pick up cruise passengers wishing to explore Cozumel on their own.
Taxi fare prices are posted in US dollars and, on our cruise, fares were by cab occupancy,
not by person.
Pricing was listed for numerous destinations, including downtown, a number of popular attractions,
beaches, all-inclusive resorts, and private island tours.
If you continue towards the street after exiting the Cruise Center, you'll find locals offering
horse and carriage rides.
If you cross the street, then turn left and walk along the sidewalk, you'll soon come
to an area popular with cruisers and ship's crew.
It features a fake Mayan ruin photo op, as well as shops, bars and restaurants.
During our visit, a troop of aerial artists performed the Dance of the Voladores and posed
for photos for a reasonable tip.
We found the prices for goods and services to be less expensive in this area than they
were in the Puerta Maya Cruise Center.
And prices in general became less expensive the further we walked away from the Cruise
Center area.
Finally, a great resource for planning your day in the Puerta Maya area is the Puerta
Maya website.
The site features a map of the cruise port area, shop information, taxi fares, and the
port schedule.

ULTIMATE TRAIL RUNNING BEGINNER'S GUIDE - YOUR FIRST GOAL/RACE - Duration: 2:14.
So now guys: your first goal.
My advice for you is to begin with a little race, a little competition
15 to 21km is fine.
with a little elevation gain, like 500 or 600m (up and down)
I think if you follow my advice, you can do it easily
and finish the race at a good place but anyway, if you're a finisher, no matter your ranking, it's always good.
And you feel so good to finish a running trail and enjoy the landscape
the atmosphere with other runners,
I really enjoy each race. I always discover other cultures as well.
It's amazing. So my advice is: do a short race
And here's a little program for you: follow my advice for 2-3 months and you can do your first race after 10-12 weeks
And if you want more advice, ask me in the comments
and tell me which race you'd like to do
and also what you do during your trainings.
And if you want more advice or specific programs, I can do that for you ;)
Thank you.
Apparently, it's okay.
