My weigh in on the first I'd still like to be in the 160's, but I've started adding in weight lifting recently so I may end up with a body composition change instead of much weight loss, but we'll see how it goes. I've been real strict about what food I eat, but not about how much I eat. I...

I had the Samsung Galaxy flip on Fi for a couple years and didn't notice any difference in service from the pixels, but ended up really hating Samsung's UI after a while. Went back to pixel when the 10 came out, so much better. My wife has Verizon and I'm still on Fi. There is the occasional...

This next?

Oh shoot, I saw that video. Didn't know who she worked for...

Yep, like I said, 99% of people wouldn't even consider it. The book says you get about 10% of your calories from fat, but that's it, no added fats at all. Just some walnuts at most. And flax seed. My lifestyle hasn't really changed much. I spend a lot more time in the kitchen, but am...

I've never actually read a Stephen King book. I am, however, nearly finished his son, Joe Hill's, latest book King Sorrow. It's really hard to put down.

His book is a new York times best seller. And he's the director of the heart disease reversal program at the Cleveland clinic, at 91 years old, he's still practicing medicine. Problem is, 99% of people will dismiss it because they aren't willing to change their diet, especially to such an extreme.

I listened to a 2 hour podcast episode of his about it today. Pretty informative. Even got me thinking maybe I should be on the statin if I can't get my LDL low enough, though it sounds like a pcsk9 inhibitor (repatha) would be better. They've also got antisense oligonucleotide drug trials that...

A day or two after this last post, the cardiologist did indeed call me. She urged me to take a statin, wanted me on 20mg of crestor to try and get my LDL into the 70s. She wasn't backing down, and didn't think I could get it lower with lifestyle changes, so I agreed and picked up the...

I'd recommend anyone wanting to try out whoop to do the free trial first. I went right to the year subscription and after a couple months decided to just stick to Garmin watches. Can't even transfer my remaining months to anyone, and they give the sensor away with the subscription so can't...

That sucks, I hate spending a ton of money on something just for it to malfunction out of the box. I've got some trail miles on mine but it's usually a couple miles of road running before I get to the trails.

I dunno, that's weird. From what I've read that usually happens with a loose watch strap causing the optical sensor to read your cadence instead of your heart rate. I've got a couple hundred miles running with the hrm600 and never had an issue like that. The only thing that happened to me once...

Isn't cadence locking more of a watch issue? Where the heat rate locks onto your cadence because of the light or whatever? Maybe the hrm hadn't synced to your watch yet? There shouldn't be any cadence locking with the strap cause it's not optical.
