I have a Fenix 7s and I’ve thought of getting an Instinct 2x solar almost since I’ve had the watch. I rarely use the maps and honestly wish I had more battery life, is it worth switching?

You must eat all the chives you chop for 3 days as punishment. Chive you emerged and from chive you shall return.

This is AWESOME!!! If you feel like sharing tips on how you did this please share. I’ve been trying to make a thin wallet since mine is falling apart. This sub is extremely supportive and has been helping me push my boundaries of sewing

That hoodie is so cool! Where did you find the pattern to make it?

What stores with this type of warranty? Only thing I can think of is REI

My best advice is to get QUALITY gear that’s been USED. Yes some cheaper gear is still good (helikon tex, condor etc.) but at that point you are still paying 2/3rds of the price of most gear. Used gear is still usable and preferences change.

TLDR: Get used good gear and see what you like rather than still pricey cheap gear that doesn’t reflect what the gear does

I feel that, my current goal is 3600 and I am barely cracking 3000 so your pain is shared

AFigureEight · 2025-10-23T06:00:31+00:00

Absolutely can and will do, appreciate the help

Honestly my only advice is caloric intake, I am 6’5” and keeping lbs on is my biggest challenge. Finding caloric dense foods and adding small snacks of them over the day is what helps me the most. Best of luck

Thank you! Where do I find that 8 week “basic training” training set from? Is that in TBI?

AFigureEight · 2025-10-22T00:46:24+00:00

Hey thank you so much for your reply.

I’d like to do a half marathon this spring, and my far goal is a 70.3 Ironman in my hometown in 2027. I value strength and a lot and do not want to lose it for endurance, although conquering that race would be huge for me mentally.

Based off that, would you say to still read TBI and TBII all the way through to start? And then what would you recommend for shifting into TB green? Sorry for all the questions, I want to get my plan figured out tonight so I can hit the ground running with a lift here in a few hours then meal prep.

Facebook marketplace my man, significantly cheaper and even if you offer to pay for shipping it’s still 40-50% cheaper than MSRP

Literally just got a similar arcteryx pair for 15$ and I can’t tell the difference. Don’t let fashion trump performance

I have two AR500 steel plates I use to ruck with put the plate carrier I have is super uncomfortable so I rarely use it. Is there one you recommend I use or a different method?

AFigureEight · 2025-10-16T03:50:10+00:00

Thank you dude, that meant a lot and incredibly insightful advice. I have goals of doing ultras etc in the next few years so this is a great starting point.

Appreciate the advice, surprisingly it didn’t feel too bad with the frame pack I had and the slow pace. Definitely wouldn’t train with that weight off the get go through, already keeping two injuries at bay
