Are you going to the gym today mate?
Just got my account set up on https://www.mywellness.com on Android and PC, so looking forward to getting some data recorded from when I'm on the weight machines! Still amazed by that being a "thing".

I'm resting up today, pleasantly stiff from the workout on the new machines, and I have a hospital appointment tomorrow which involves travel, but I'll be there on Tuesday.

Re: Post your daily exercise routine
we got it from Argos a product called OMRON. Setting it up is a bit of a fiddle ,with length of stride we just guessed it for examplelink

Sue being tight fisted got me the cheaper version
as i said setting it up is a pain, at first we could not get it to work due to poor instructions. It was down to how the buttons were pressed in the end, something you would have to discover like we did. usually a quick press did it

Re: Post your daily exercise routine
Those 'Stepometers' are notoriously inaccurate. Every time you move your leg it registers one step regardless of how long that step is. Imagine if its inaccurate to just six inch (less than the length of one of your feet) every step, on a walk of ten thousand steps it would be over one mile adrift.....I used one while delivering the post on the same route every day for six days, on a distance of eight miles, and in one week I got six different readings....

Re: Post your daily exercise routine
Good luck with the x-ray Floydy.....
Managed to struggle round a five this morning in a poor time. There seems to be some tightness in my lower back muscles preventing me from using any power, it would also explain Sunday's pathetic attempt at running....
It could have been caused by incorrect lifting of all the Christmas decorations into the loft, a course of Ibuprofen should stop it getting any worse....
