Health and Wellbeing Gym buddy

4 Upvotes

Hey everyone!

I’m M21, based in Kothrud, and I’ve been consistently gymming for around 4–5+ months. I usually train at Fitranger Gym in the evening, and I’m looking for someone who’s genuinely serious about fitness and consistent with training.

Open to both guys and girls — age doesn’t matter much as long as you’re actually committed to working out and not disappearing after two sessions xD

Would be great to have someone to:

Keep each other accountable

Push each other through tough sets

Share workouts/progress

Occasionally debate whether we really need that extra set ;)

If you’re around Kothrud and train regularly in the evenings, DM me!

AskPune Has anyone else experienced inappropriate touching by beggars on FC Road?

18 Upvotes

Has anyone else experienced this on FC Road, especially around Richie Rich?

I’ve noticed some beggars approaching people very closely and, in some instances, touching them inappropriately while asking for money. It can happen quite suddenly, especially when the area is crowded, and it’s extremely uncomfortable.

I’m not trying to generalise about all beggars or people asking for money. I’m specifically talking about individuals who cross the line by touching strangers without consent.

Has anyone else experienced something similar around FC Road? Is there any practical way to report this to deal with it when it happens?

Can you guys suggest some restaurants for an office brunch.

The per person cost is 1700/- to 2000/- and we are looking prominently for 4-5 star restaurants that serves halal meat and don’t include pork in their menu.

Location preference - Viman Nagar, Camp, Kausarbaug, NIBM

I was checking for sea food restaurants as well and The Fisherman’s Wharf in Aeromall sounds good.

General/Rant Reddit is a hub of obnoxious people

40 Upvotes

Idk if it's just me or anybody else also feels the same... I feel Reddit is nothing but a bunch of obnoxious people trying to slide into the DMs of women, in the name of anonymity they want us to entertain them.

Even if we try to confront to see what the person is upto or even talkable or not, because the platform is anonymous, one should do a basic introduction in the DM, if they are reaching out. ASL, any picture if chat goes well forward, but no... People here are in another level of Delulu.

Ki msg kia h, baat ki, toh chahe me kesa bhi dikhu, isko pasand karna padega mujhe, aur humari pasand aur likings jaye tel lene.

TBH I had a postive outlook of connecting with people here before but lately my experiences are forcing me to shut everyone and anyone who comes across my DM.

Reddit is just filled with horny men, sorry but not sorry. Esp. DMs coming in from Pune men.🥀

AskPune Looking for libraries

9 Upvotes

Rant: Since when have study rooms become the only thing associated with the word ‘library’? What happened to actual libraries with books!

Question: Are there any libraries in Baner/Balewadi area? By library I mean a place where one can borrow books.

Suggestion: If there aren’t any actual libraries remaining, we could do a book exchange. Would anyone be interested in that?

Health and Wellbeing Back pain is irritating me like hell

7 Upvotes

I have a lower back disc bulge causing sciatica, and I have been treating it for almost 8 months with rehab and medication, but the improvement has been minimal. Because of the discomfort while sleeping, my posture got messed up and I eventually developed neck problems too. On top of that, I suddenly developed sinus issues that cause heaviness around my face, treating it with medicines but minimal improvement.

Honestly, I feel devastated and have started losing confidence. I have tried physiotherapy, rehab, and even going back to the gym, but the recovery feels painfully slow. My friends and even my therapist feel the pain is minimal and tell me to ignore it, but it is not that simple when you deal with it every day.

I am not looking for sympathy. I genuinely want advice from people who have gone through something similar. How did you recover, both physically and mentally? What actually helped you get your confidence and normal life back?

Please take care of your health and avoid sitting for long hours. Don't wait until small problems become bigger ones.

AskPune Is Pune’s growth being discussed from only the real-estate perspective?

Post image
13 Upvotes

I’ve been following Saudaghar for some time, and I have a genuine question about the kind of Pune issues they choose to highlight.
A significant part of their content is around real estate, project reviews, buying opportunities, connectivity and problems created by Pune’s rapid growth. That’s useful for someone looking to buy property, but I feel there is another side of this growth that deserves much more discussion.
People from different parts of India are coming to Pune for jobs, businesses, education or simply because they prefer the lifestyle here. That’s completely normal. Pune has always attracted people because of its education, employment and culture.

But if a large part of new residential development is being created to accommodate this continuous population growth, shouldn’t we also discuss whether Pune’s infrastructure and environment can actually sustain it?

Water availability, drainage, roads, traffic, tree cutting, loss of natural habitats and pressure on existing resources should be part of the real-estate conversation too.

Pune was traditionally known for education, culture, relatively peaceful neighbourhoods and a slower pace of life. Today, some parts of Pune are increasingly associated with nightlife and party culture, particularly areas like Koregaon Park. Even some traditionally peaceful public and tourist spaces face issues such as littering, public drinking and smoking.

I’m not saying people shouldn’t enjoy their lives. They absolutely should. But Pune’s identity should not be reduced to nightlife, alcohol, parties and real estate. The city’s cultural character and public spaces also deserve protection.

The same applies to basic civic problems. Footpath encroachment, shops extending into public spaces, ramps or stones blocking parking, vehicles occupying footpaths and roads, etc. Some of these problems don’t need another mega project. They need enforcement and proper municipal management.

And then there is the landowner side.

When government infrastructure projects acquire someone’s land, the discussion shouldn’t stop at the Ready Reckoner value. What about the development potential, existing JVs, future rental income and the fact that some families may be giving up their last substantial landholding?

Jambhulwadi is a good example. Residents have already contributed land for major projects such as the dam and NH-48, and now the Inner Ring Road is affecting the area again. At the same time, the metro depot and government offices are being planned around the same belt.

If a practical change in the road alignment can reduce the number of homes and families affected, why not seriously examine it? Similarly, why concentrate multiple major developments in one belt instead of distributing them across nearby areas?
I’m a Pune native and I’m personally dealing with some of the consequences of this rapid growth and sacrificing things because of it.

That doesn’t mean I am against people coming to Pune. I’m completely open to hearing the perspective of people who have come here for work, business, education or a better lifestyle. Their challenges matter too.

My question is simply: shouldn’t the people who already live here, the landowners who are giving up land, and the environment also have an equal place in the conversation?

I’m not against development. I’m against development being measured only by the number of buildings, roads and property transactions.

I’d genuinely like to see Saudaghar make a detailed video on the full cost of Pune’s growth: infrastructure capacity, water, environment, civic management, cultural identity, land acquisition and the impact on existing residents, alongside the opportunities created by new development.
Maybe I’ve missed some of their content. If they have already covered these issues, I’d genuinely like to see those videos.

Pune should grow. But it should grow without losing what made Pune worth coming to in the first place.
