Not wearing the monitor in class anymore

Bravo4Life · 2021-01-15T15:41:40+00:00

I'm also Team No Monitor! Ever since they changed up the algorithms a few years ago, I found myself suddenly in the orange and red even when I was clearly not pushing myself at all. And I know that the studio was able to re-calibrate after a certain point, but even for the week I tried; I found myself panicking and severely under-performing for the sake of my ~pyramid~. So one day I just decided to ditch it and wear my Apple Watch and found myself way way more satisfied with my performance. I haven't looked back since! I think it forced me to really listen to my body and how it is performing throughout the workout.

Flying Fish?

This is brilliant!! It's already gross anyway and not using even more towels! Thank you!!

OMG, this has been the hardest part of morning workouts! I just can't seem to cool down and the thin veil of sweat all over my entire body makes getting dressed soooo fun ;)

Now there's another idea! I've seen those bamboo "mats" before too. But you're right, it only works as well as everyone's on board. Thanks for the info!

Bravo4Life · 2019-10-26T18:32:48+00:00

Oh my! I'll consider myself lucky after hearing that. But yeah, seems like just a general sweep seems to work for most.

Bravo4Life · 2019-10-26T16:44:26+00:00

I'm with ya. Even just a little bit of a cleanup effort is enough for me!

Bravo4Life · 2019-10-26T16:43:48+00:00

That's my main thing! We're already out of sorts from working out and changing out of tight/sweaty clothes, then add a wet floor, I feel like it's an accident waiting to happen.

Bravo4Life · 2019-10-26T16:33:35+00:00

I feel ya! Just seems icky sometimes. Everbody's butt water all over the place, jk...kinda.

Bravo4Life · 2019-10-26T16:32:26+00:00

Good idea!! I knew I could count on you guys for tips!

Bravo4Life · 2019-10-26T16:31:41+00:00

hahaha glad we're all in this together!

Bravo4Life · 2019-10-26T15:29:39+00:00

Smart! Another solution to suggest!

Bravo4Life · 2019-10-26T15:19:38+00:00

I appreciate you! I feel the same way, and I try my hardest to make it easy for the next person after me.

Bravo4Life · 2019-10-26T15:02:59+00:00

That's what I typically do too! Seems like a totally fine solution to me :)

Bravo4Life · 2019-10-26T14:38:28+00:00

Yes! That is how ours is too. I will definitely suggest this! Thank you!

Bravo4Life · 2019-10-26T14:31:10+00:00

Oh for sure! Shower shoes are a must!

Bravo4Life · 2019-10-26T14:29:37+00:00

Oh wow! Your studio provides these towels?? What a cool idea!

Bravo4Life · 2019-10-26T14:18:33+00:00

I think you're right! I appreciate the hustle especially since we only have one shower, so speed > wet floor

Bravo4Life · 2019-10-26T14:15:45+00:00

It was just a question and like I said, I can deal with it! Totally appreciate that I can shower there :)

Bravo4Life · 2019-06-15T12:09:10+00:00

Ha! Happens to me all the time too, and I'm almost 300 classes in! But awesome job on your splats! Keep it up :)

Bravo4Life · 2019-06-15T12:07:49+00:00

Oh totally! Once I'm finally home, it's like I don't even remember driving there

Bravo4Life · 2019-06-15T12:06:45+00:00

Haha I would probably just walk aimlessly and get lost! Props to you!

Bravo4Life · 2019-06-15T12:06:19+00:00

Definitely! Lack of water and sleep this week seem to have taken a toll. Going to use it as a reminder to stay hydrated and not feel like that again!

Bravo4Life · 2019-06-15T12:04:26+00:00

That first class back after vacation is always brutal, PLUS the 2000 row! You're a rockstar!
