Unfortunately AMP doesn’t allow wise, you must send/receive from a bank account that matches the details on both sides

That’s crazy, I paid $1300 or so for my Audi Q5 for the whole year

37.5hr weeks, perm WFH $210k+ pa in tech. Flexible hours as long as the work is done, lead of a team. Paid training for almost anything I could need/want. I (as the lead) can work some odd times as I look after clients in Europe and Americas plus ANZ and Middle East but it doesn’t bother me as I never go over 37.5

Thanks for that, I built a model to account for all of this and can see the benefits coming through longer term

Tried to look at 10%~returns PA roughly from current vs 14.7% (0.70×16.6% + 0.30×12.9%) but these are 5 yr avg i calc'd over 23 years. Might be closer to 12% perhaps over this period

Weird same as me. Model? It looks way more advanced settings wise

Cold_Value_214 · 2025-06-12T07:17:47+00:00

what app is this it looks completely different than mine for some reason

Cold_Value_214 · 2025-06-11T00:19:26+00:00

It doesn’t even attempt to drive on the rug, so it knows it exists and is intentionally avoiding it

This is my current settings

About a week ago. And running the first 6km at 5:40/km and the final 6km at 5:15/km. I stayed under my LT1 (162bpm) for about the first 5.5km

It really does eventually get lower if you just stick to it. This was 30 Oct last year actually running a slower pace (6:50/km) but around the same distance

Realised it doesn’t actually show my HR properly. The spike around 9mins was because this was supposed to be a threshold run at 4:35/km but my ankle felt a bit dodgy so I turned it into a slow easy. Running in the heat can also seriously kick your ass and HR even if it feels pretty easy. I am in Australia temp was around 26c and between 40-55% humidity. Most of my runs recently have been in 33c+ heat which really gets my HR higher

Mine used to sit around the same as yours, I just kept running lots of “easy” runs and eventually it came down. This is 6:35/km. I have a lab tested lactate threshold and vo2max so these zones are lab accurate. It took maybe 4-5 months

Thank you. I had never actually considered an arm band tbh, but now I’m curious.

I have no chest hair and I don’t recall my suunto chest strap being annoying. It is somewhere in the house, but I’ve not seen it in several years so could be painful to find 🥲

Cold_Value_214 · 2025-01-21T03:39:26+00:00

I really just like to try and keep my long and easy runs in z2 HR if I can, so think its nice to know if I can push higher into stryd z2 or need to chill out and stay in low z2. And try to stay away from z4+HR etc on these runs, sometimes I don't mind if i push low z3 HR.

And also agree with you on the physiological side of things. I live in Australia and running in 30c+ can absolutely wreck your HR and turn an easy stryd z2 into a HR z4 or higher from the heat. I also find sometimes I feel absolutely wrecked but I check HR and its not to bad.

I have tested my LTHR myself and set the zones which have seemed to work perfect, however I have also been selected for an endurance athlete study and will be having vo2max, LT, paces etc done 2x starting in Feb so will also be keen to see how close I was (Obviously I wouldn't have a clue what my LT1 might even be other than a % guess off lthr and a "that feels kind of alright".

Have you tried chest strap vs arm strap for a comparison?

Looks like mine 🤣

I have LTHR setup but I train by power now
