  • Any significance to those numbers!
  • How have you been wearing it?
  • I would have to agree with this, a day missed is exactly that. Being a dirtbiker I have also been close to missing a day when we've been out to far race venues from early morning until late at night and often with little or no cellular reception, but I do get a gentle reminder from MFP which has prompted me to continually…
  • I would say from the beginning of August until now would not be enough time for any significant muscle growth as of yet. No harm in going to your doctor for a check up, at least you can eliminate any nagging health doubts
  • I've pretty much hit well under my target a short while back and am looking to slowly increase lean muscle mass. My passion is dirtbikes, so all my small goals reached were rewarded with sport specific scenarios, another helmet, more gear that can fit, another bike, another tattoo..
  • Ok, my interest is piqued, I'm in to check out what it's all about..
  • Yes I still wear my FitBit with my HRM. My workouts consist of a cardio warm up and then weights, so I want the steps from the treadmill or elliptical trainer. Obviously the FitBit does not pick up on the strength training, so my HRM come into play there. What I've done is create a FitBit activity called "Gym Adjustment".…
  • Your home page should be your newsfeed. Have you updated to the latest version?
  • It is probably just a case of you pushing yourself too much too quickly. But, before starting any serious physical activity it is always best to go for a check up to make sure nothing is amiss.
  • Partners being together through thick and thin is the core of a healthy relationship. I'm not wanting to come over as being judgemental, but unless there are other underlying factors, it does seem like your partner placed more value on a superficial level. If that is the case, as hard as it might be to understand and…
  • Having just kept on dropping my target weight, I am now well under my initial goal, time to move into maintenance and then to carefully increase lean muscle mass. This post makes perfect sense and has helped!
  • I am plagued by knee problems due to the injuries we pick up with our dirt biking. My advice would be to first consult a good physio so they can check you out and start giving you the correct rehabilitating exercises to get everything tracking in order again. The muscle groups must be balanced. I have had knee ops on both…
  • We seem to be having a quiet month!
  • But according to your logic your very last drink will be lots of "the stuff" :wink:
  • How are you getting your H7 to sync with MFP? Digifit?
  • No sweat. Hit it!

  • As far as I am aware the current list of compatible heart rate sensors are: Wahoo Polar Garmin Zephyr This is also subject to the OS you are using..
  • I think they're hot, gender irrespective. The artwork and quality must be good though, and although I've got 7 for now, there are certain areas I personally won't get inked. As for what other people might think about tattoos, that is totally irrelevant to me, I got each one done for my own personal reasons and not to try…
  • No, the flex does not have an idle alert, battery life is claimed around the 7 day mark. Here is a head to head of both units with some interesting pointers: http://vickiho.com/post/55710494712/i-wore-the-fitbit-flex-and-jawbone-up-together-to-write The Garmin Vivofit has a one year battery life, but IMO Garmin Connect is…
  • Here's my take as a South African, I initially looked at the FitBit, Fitbug and Jawbone when researching what activity tracker to use. I checked out their websites, especially what the free version would offer, and also needed the product to link to Discovery Vitality. I do not like the wrist worn units, so I eventually…
  • While it might not be the cleanest food, or the best macros, yes, if you can occasionally fit a fast food meal into your daily calorie budget you will be fine. It's better not to deprive yourself of items you enjoy as this lifestyle has to be sustainable over a long term basis, so being too rigid and hard on yourself will…
  • Yes, it does make it a bit easier with managing bumpy roads, I usually get affected when using a motorcycle to commute with, as per the FitBit suggestion: "Your fitbit should detect that you are driving and stop counting steps and floors but if the road is particularly bumpy it can get a bit confused. There is currently no…
  • What model FitBit do you have? If you're using the One you can simply use the timer, and then change those activities to Driving, which will sort that out.
  • I cannot offer any advice regarding app restrictions and availability in India, but I'm from South Africa and we have no problems with using the FitBit device and the apps here. Regarding the phone, yes, the 4S supports BLE so the FitBit will sync to the phone with no issues, but it must be the S. You should be able to…
  • Any FitBit, as with other activity trackers, are not designed to be waved around in your hand, and I don't see where a person would need to do so, so that is not a real negative against them. I personally prefer the One out of all the FitBit units, small, unobtrusive and it has a great display that I can check my current…
