Can anyone reccommend a good cycle app?
I've recently moved to the coast and it's just been calling to me for weeks now. I gave in and bought a new bike and trailer for my daughter to ride along in. I love it, we try to get out on it at least once a week and just take in the gorgeous route. We are currently averaging somewhere between 20 and 30 mile routes and…

Working out after knee surgery

I am doing great, still slightly swollen but very mobile and almost pain free. I cannot stand for long periods of time but can tolerate moving…

My watch died again. 🥺
About a month ago my watch (Garmin Fenix 6X) suffered some kind of malfunction and stopped working completely. It was only able to display weird screens and couldn't even tell the time. Garmin rushed me a new one, which got a similar glitch this morning. It can still tell time and track exercise, but won't talk to my…

Question regarding breathing
I have recently started running (running/jogging/walking/running in that order as soon as I can run again).

Steps vs. calories
Hey everyone! I’m sure this has been asked and answered before but I can’t find any info. I’m wondering why my steps are giving me such a low calorie burn on here? Today I’ve done 12,000 steps and it’s saying I’ve only burnt 40 calories. I have an Apple Watch as my tracker. TIA!

Bench pressing advantage or not
I went to the gym this weekend and noticed that a lot of people are busing bench pressing (either free weights or machines). Beyond the aesthetic look of bench pressing, is there another reason? Outside the gym, I enjoy playing golf and running. Is there a real benefit bench pressing beyond your weight?

HR mystery, possibly tech related
I'm trying to solve a HR mystery. When I run regularly I observe some strange things. It doesn't happen with every run, but when it does it's always after around 3km: suddenly the running becomes super easy. When I then look at my phone connected to an optical upper arm sensor my HR is about 15-25bpm lower than it was a…

Fitness tracker - some advice please
Hi everyone, I'm considering getting a fitness tracker to use alongside mfp. From reading up on them, I know steps and calories from steps can be synced from fitbits to mfp, but do any trackers sync across actual workouts (eg, spinning, weights etc) as I'm more focused on actual workouts rather than steps. I can't seem to…
