Is my routine OK?
I'm new to the gym and strength training but am really enjoying using the machines. I am sticking with them for now, not looking for advice on using free weights instead. I can only get to the gym 3 times a week and do this same routine every time. Does it look OK? Is there anything else I should add in? More legs? I use:…

Riding with two Garmins
This is a very specific question, but I think there might be a few people in here in the same boat. I have a Fenix watch and an Edge 130. When I ride, I use both in bike mode.
