I wish they’d send me one like they did to her
I wish they’d send me one like they did to herhaha did you get influenced by Anna. No, but this keeps coming up on my feed https://apexrides.com/, similar to Pelaton but UK based with Boom Cycle Instructor
I don't think your FitBit is recording your steps accurately. 9000 steps for me is around 4 miles and I'm 6 foot tall. If I do 7 miles it's around 14000 steps.It's actually quite surprising just how many steps 10,000 is. My husband and I went a walk in the countryside last week and it was almost 7 miles and I had only done 8000 odd steps according to my FitBit.
Um.. don’t know what that nurse is on about? Your body doesn’t get used to exercise? Walking is exercise. Have you looked into being in a calorie deficit because that’s the only way you will effectively lose weight. You’re already doing good with the walking and manual job, that will burn calories, but generally if you’re not losing weight then you’re eating more than your maintenance.I walk to work that’s a 45 min walk, I have a manual job I work in a warehouse so do a lot of lifting & carrying, I walk home (up bank) I did the school run twice a day that’s a 2 mile walk as well for the whole school run, can’t afford the gym & just don’t have the time between my kids, granddaughter & needy husband, yet I’m overweight, can’t shift weight at all, I did see a nurse about my lack of weight loss she said because I walk a lot I won’t lose weight as my body is so used to it, came out feeling like utter crap! I’ve been overweight all my adult life so given up now.
Ah cheers I’ve reset it on my app and it appears to be working right now. Around 5.5 miles is now 10,000 steps for me!I don't think your FitBit is recording your steps accurately. 9000 steps for me is around 4 miles and I'm 6 foot tall. If I do 7 miles it's around 14000 steps.
I think you would like Penny Barnshaw https://www.youtube.com/c/PennyBarnshawPre-covid, I was going to a Barre studio 4-5 times a week. It was a mixture of HIIT and strength training. It got me in really good shape.
Since Covid, we've set up a gym in the basement. I work out about 5 times a week. Doing a lot of strength and some cardio. I actually think I am stronger than when I was going to the gym.
I use Youtube channels. My favourites are fitness blender, madfit, heather robertson, and caroline girvan. I found I like the videos most where they don't talk and it is just a countdown timer and music.
I found rest to be the best thing to resolve shin splint. Although it could be worth having gait analysis to make sure that your trainers are fully supporting you. Hope you find something that can help xAh cheers I’ve reset it on my app and it appears to be working right now. Around 5.5 miles is now 10,000 steps for me!
Does anyone have any advice for me and my shin splint? I began running which I’ve now stopped as it’s too painful. I now walk more and have invested in some decent trainers. The pain is still prominent in my left leg though. I’ve been icing and using KT tape and compression sleeves when walking but the pain still lingers.
Why would you feel guilty. If your not enjoying them / feel like you can do better just cancel, it's your money.I was going to create a gym thread but thought I’d just bump this!
I've started the gym again this month and it’s been a major boost for me. The first couple of weeks I was doing lots of classes but I cut those back. The two I went to every week I’ve cancelled on the app for today as I’m getting more confidence with doing stuff other than cardioI never targeted muscle groups for example, felt too self-conscious doing anything other than cardio.
The classes are only 30 mins (I’d double up depending on the schedule) but there would still be a lot of standing around waiting for the PT to pick a songand you’d have to get there 15 mins early to one class just to get a space. I’d feel like we did more sets and not enough reps, too.
The point is, has anyone else used the classes and then dropped them once they gained confidence or did you continue them? I feel a bit guilty cancelling them but think I’ve outgrown them already (it’s only a chain gym so they’re nothing amazing) but they were great for giving me confidence and helping with my coordination.
Guilty might be the wrong word, may be more pressure just not to zone out in a class and have to plan my workouts. It seems whatever the PT likes working out that’s what the class focused on so quality was hit and miss, but the classes are included in the membership. I wanted to hear how others had approached classes having never done them before.Why would you feel guilty. If your not enjoying them / feel like you can do better just cancel, it's your money.
So an update on my weight loss, got rid of the needy husband last December, since then I’ve gone from 20st down to just over 13st, eating less & I’ve joined the gym, I only go on the cross trainer, rowing machine & treadmill, I’m so scared to run on the treadmill a combination of bad ankles & feeling embarrassedI walk to work that’s a 45 min walk, I have a manual job I work in a warehouse so do a lot of lifting & carrying, I walk home (up bank) I did the school run twice a day that’s a 2 mile walk as well for the whole school run, can’t afford the gym & just don’t have the time between my kids, granddaughter & needy husband, yet I’m overweight, can’t shift weight at all, I did see a nurse about my lack of weight loss she said because I walk a lot I won’t lose weight as my body is so used to it, came out feeling like utter crap!
