Men's lifehacks. The most hellish men's lifehacks - we want to find out

A real man's life is harsh. Everything falls on his strong shoulders. And cut a slice of bread, and hammer a nail, and cook a kebab. Our TOP 10 life hacks will be useful to everyone. The territory of men's secrets and survival techniques. Girls are not allowed!

1. Drill without dust

• You can drill a hole in the wall without debris on the parquet floor. A sticker placed under the drilling area will collect all the dust. Tear off a piece of paper from the notebook, bend it and attach the adhesive part to the wall. An alternative option is plain paper and tape.

2. Holder for hooks and jigs

• It is not always convenient to take with you a set of fishing gear and accessories. The prospect of going fishing may be vague, in which case fishing gear should take up minimal space. But where to put a couple of hooks and jigs? Stick them into a wine cork!

3. Light a fire and end up with a beard

• Kebab is food for a real man. It is known that without a fire you cannot cook a good shish kebab. The main thing in this matter is to fan the fire and stay with the beard. If you fold your fingers as shown in the picture, you can fan the flame at a distance safe for your face. A concentrated and directed jet of air will quickly ignite chips and firewood.

4. How to check the quality of gasoline

• The question of how to determine the quality of gasoline worries many men. Pros determine quality by changes in traction and other wise signs. The question can be approached in a simpler way. Drop some gasoline onto a piece of white paper. When the gasoline evaporates, there should be... nothing left on the sheet! Any trace is an impurity. A greasy stain indicates the presence of kerosene.

5. How to prevent wire wear

• A bend in the wire near the plug is the main cause of wire failure. How to extend the service life? We take an unnecessary fountain pen and remove the spring from it. We put the spring on the cable by twisting it, going to the thickening of the wire. This will prevent excessive cable kinking and wire damage.

6. Cool beer quickly

• The beer has been bought and the match is about to start. Life would be good if it weren’t for... They forgot to put the beer in the refrigerator! Wrap the bottles in wet paper towels and place them in the freezer. Within 15 minutes the beer will be cold. The method works with all drinks in glass.

7. Stay on your toes during repairs

• For a real man, hammering a nail is not a problem. And even if it’s bent and the hammer hits your fingers, it doesn’t matter! Still, some tricks will help you manipulate the nail without injury. A holder made from an ordinary clothespin will protect your fingers from shock.

8. Men's toilet fragrance

• A real man doesn't use toilet fragrance. A real man lights a match in the toilet to mask the unpleasant smell. It's simple. Light a match, extinguish the match. There is no smell.

9. Lantern cap

• Do you need to highlight the work area and leave your hands free? Build a lantern cap. You will need the cap itself, a miniature flashlight and a large paper clip. Using a clamp, secure the flashlight to the visor. Ready. The beam of light will be directed to where you look.

10. Bread without crumbs

• The man cuts the bread in the family. Only he can cut a rye brick easily and gracefully, even if it is harder than silicate. However, no man can handle loose and crumbling bread. If you turn the loaf upside down, cutting a neat slice is easy. The bottom of the bread is usually denser than the doughy top.

Some men are so convinced of their natural attractiveness that they forget: ears are not the only organ that a woman “loves.” Representatives of the fairer sex always pay attention to a man’s shoes, clothes and accessories.

Do you want to be impeccable? Then learn how to iron without an iron, care for leather shoes and get rid of pills on clothes. Here are 11 men's fashion life hacks.

Tie size matters

A tie is a necessary element of a business man's wardrobe. Over time, not only colors and styles change, but also sizes. So, in the 1970s. they wore ties 13 cm wide. Now ties 7-9 cm wide and narrower are in fashion.

But at all times there is a general rule that determines the optimal width of a tie, based on the individual characteristics of the figure.

The width of the tie should match the lapels of the jacket.

The narrower the shoulders, the narrower the lapels. Therefore, the tie should also be narrow. The wider the shoulders, the larger the lapels and the “wider” the tie is needed.

If, looking in your closet, you see that your ties do not meet this rule, watch the following video. It will teach you how to turn a wide tie into a narrow one.

Iron Man

Men hate ironing and come up with ways to make the process easier. At least the first electric iron was patented by the American Henry Seely in 1882; and almost 60 years later, Edward Schreyer invented the steam iron.

Laziness is progressing, and today you can find such advice on the Internet.

There are also more radical hacks: hang your shirt on hangers and spray it with a solution of vinegar, water and fabric softener. True, there is a possibility that no perfume will get rid of the smell of vinegar.

Natural “cosmetics” for… shoes

Italian hygienist Paolo Mantegazza said: “Being sincere and frank does not mean showing your friends the dirt on your boots.” There are many shoe care products on the market - cream, spray, talc; for protection against moisture, for cleaning, etc.

But, if you don’t have a single “ready-made” solution at hand, you can use olive oil. It perfectly cleans leather shoes and gives them shine.

Another tip: if your new leather boots are too rough, apply hand cream to them. They will become softer and more pleasant to wear.

Freezing odors

Sweat-smelling sneakers, a plastic bag and a freezer. Three unrelated things? Not at all! If you put smelly sneakers in a sealed bag and put them in the freezer overnight, in the morning you will get shoes that smell of frosty freshness.

Old, dirty, but strong, sneakers can be worn for more than one season. To do this they need:

• brush thoroughly with a toothbrush and powder;
• paint using fabric paint;
• dry.

Fly

Remember the joke: if a woman looks at you and smiles, before you come up to introduce yourself, check if your fly is buttoned? Alas, no one is safe from “unruly” zippers on jeans or trousers.

But there is a way out. Take the key ring, thread it through the slider and secure it with a button.

We described other ways to deal with problematic lightning.

New hole instead of a new belt

A belt is an equally important men's accessory. Many men carefully choose it, paying attention not only to color and style, but also to quality and brand.

Agree, it’s a pity to throw away a good leather belt if you’ve gained weight or, on the contrary, lost weight. Moreover, you can adjust it to fit using a regular hole punch. The man in the next video will show you how to do this.

LIFE HACKS FOR MEN

We asked WE Community members what tricks make their lives easier and help them stay on their toes.

ZHANDOS KURMANBAEV, 31 year
communications consultant

I always have a piece of boiled horse meat (zhaya) and vegetables in my refrigerator. This allows me, a bachelor, to nourish my body with proteins and fiber.

I try to keep protein bars everywhere - in the glove compartment, in my bag, and on my desk shelves. Every time I feel hungry and don’t have time to eat, I eat one candy bar. It contains a balanced amount of fats, carbohydrates and proteins, plus a set of vitamins.

I always try to take dietary supplements. At a minimum, Omega-3, calcium, zinc, DME. Be sure to keep Melatonin at home to regulate sleep. It is best to buy all this in sports nutrition stores or online retailers. I am categorically against dietary supplements sold through pharmacies.

Every morning I start with a glass of purified water and a protein shake. It is not necessary to drink it only for those who play sports. I try to continue drinking water throughout the day (at least 1.5 liters). To organize myself, I came up with a principle - 1 glass of water per hour. It is important to drink in small sips. Another proven method is to buy a water block and throw it in the back seat so that the water is always visible. You will feel the result within 10 days.

If I liked music on the radio, I identify it through Shazam just to list my tracks. There is a “My Shazam” tab, it remembers all the songs in a list.

I only fill my car up to a full tank. This saves a lot of time, reducing the number of refills to 2 times a month.

Instead of a diary, I use two applications - Any.DO for a to-do list with reminders and Evernote for writing down everything. Tested and synced across all devices.

During rush hour or when I need to go to an unfamiliar area, I launch the Yandex.Navigator application. It does not always offer a logical path, but you get there faster than if you had followed your own route. This application takes into account traffic jams and calculates the exact (down to the minute) arrival time, suggesting the optimal route.

DANIAR UTEULIN, 35 years
representative of the publishing house "Mann, Ivanov and Ferber" in Kazakhstan

My life hack is to wake up earlier. This allows you to plan your day, do a few small but constantly postponed tasks, play sports and get to the office before traffic jams.

RUSTEM SEITBEKOV, 32 years
teacher-tutor of the ballet troupe at the Astana Opera Opera and Ballet Theater

In the morning, when you wake up, you need to drink a glass of water on an empty stomach. Firstly, the body wakes up faster, and secondly, numerous studies confirm that water drunk on an empty stomach not only starts metabolic processes in the body and has a strengthening effect on the body, but also helps in the treatment of many chronic diseases. After that, put the kettle on, start the car and go wash. This way you will save time.

Another diet tip that I follow myself: breakfast like a king, lunch like a prince, dinner like a pauper. There is another option: eat breakfast yourself, share lunch with a friend, and give dinner to your enemy. Thus, you will achieve an excellent figure, healthy sleep and you will have more time for your family, and it is the most important thing in life.

ERLAN MANATAEV, 35 years
owner and trainer of Golden Eagle Crossfit fitness clubs

When you're hungry and don't have time, cook scrambled eggs. Fast and a good source of protein for maintaining muscle mass. It's better than fast food, cookies or instant noodles.

Go to training under any circumstances (morning, evening, not in the mood, tired). Good health and mood are guaranteed.

Don’t ask to fill up a full tank at a gas station: you stand at the cash register for a long time, it’s better to roughly calculate how much gasoline you need, pay, fill it up, and leave quickly.

Skiing is better on weekdays - there are fewer people.

If you go to the cinema and there is a car wash there, then this is a great time saver, and you don’t have to look for parking.

A healthy diet for me is a minimum of sugar and flour, more vegetables and meat, some fruits and nuts.

I give my body a break from food for 16 hours a day, including sleep. You can drink at this time.

Breakfast is not the most important meal of the day. The most important meal after training.

Water is the head of everything. Drink more water, you will be healthy. Up to 30 ml per 1 kg of body weight per day.

Nutrition, training and sleep are the three heads of the dragon that need to be given equal attention to be functional and healthy.

The most hellish men's lifehacks - we want to find out

Men are sometimes devilishly cunning, insidious and inventive when it comes to life hacks, which you wouldn’t boast about in polite society, but there’s no point in giving them up. We need to know the enemy by sight, we decided, and we collected the most hellish of them. Now know this too!

Freezer

We don’t know who first came up with the idea that the cold repelled the nasty smell, but the men immediately took advantage of this and decided to use it to their advantage. Seriously: some people are so lazy that they can't wash their sweaty tank tops and shirts, so they put them in the freezer. Then they take it out and wear it as if nothing had happened. Brrr.

Treasure

Almost all men, without exception, pick their nose with their finger when they think no one is watching. And some don't even care. But that’s not what’s disgusting, it’s the fact that they love to roll the boogers into balls and carefully place them: some on a napkin on the table, some behind the sofa. Why can't you do this in the bathroom?

Sandpaper

Since for many men a pedicure is something from the area of ​​homosexuality, so NEVER, they use improvised means for their roughened, excuse me, hooves. For example, sandpaper. We don't joke now even once.

Food

Obviously, men have a fear of dying from hunger baked into their brains at a subconscious genetic level. Otherwise, we don’t know how to explain the addiction to leaving literally a couple of spoons of food in a pot or frying pan and forgetting about it. And then you open the refrigerator - and there is half-drunk yogurt standing there and its hands are reaching out to you.

Nails

He. He cuts his hair. Their. Claws. Yours. Manicures. Scissors. Moreover, you can persuade him as much as you like to take others, buy him another ten - it’s all useless. Finds yours and cuts it. I would kill you!

Slicing

There must be a lot of food! Therefore, he cuts everything into such slices that he can feed three people, and with the leftovers he can also feed a cat and a dog.

Cloth

Super life hack: why buy new if you have a cool and beloved old one? And it is useless to convince that these pants are already disintegrating into atoms. I still wore this in ninth grade! Great sweater! - and so he was.

Trash

Every man has a life hack built into his head called “to the garage.” Or “to the balcony.” Or “in the closet.” As a result, when you enter the notorious garage, you find a broken chandelier, a bearskin, a coil of wire, an old sled, plywood and an accordion. To the question “why??” usually follows the sacramental “what if it comes in handy?!”

Sex

In sex, we are terribly infuriated by the “finished and fell asleep” life hack. And you sadly trudge into the bathroom to wash yourself, or dry yourself with your panties (but it’s still sticky). Or a used condom is later found in the most unexpected place!

Gas attack

Some men are sure that if they fart quietly, no one will notice anything. And they calmly do this until you wash the refrigerator and take out the bucket, unable to understand why it STINKS SO SO MUCH!

Teaching is light

If men were paid extra for every extra minute they spent on the toilet, most families would live comfortably. There are so many things you can do while sitting on the potty! Read, stick to Facebook, play, negotiate and conduct business correspondence! Here they are sitting. And underneath them splashes something that does not sink. Horror!
