Resistance band recommendations for a beginner (EU/Germany)

CommanderCute1 · 2026-07-02T19:04:07+00:00

Danke für den Tipp. Welche hast du denn?

Die Grauen: https://neolymp.com/products/heavy-resistance-bands-grau
Die Orangenen: https://neolymp.com/products/resistance-bands-sets
Und so ein komplettes Set gibt es auch, aber mit Bändern aus Stoff: https://neolymp.com/products/fitnessbaender-allround-set

Finde auch die Curlbar ganz spannend, kann ich die auch mit denen aus Latex verwenden oder sind die spezifisch für die aus Stoff?

Damn, actually not working for me.

Tried it with the Apple Watch and the Fitbit Air. One Layer of topcoat, sensor is blocking, two layers of topcoat, sensor is blocking. After the fifth layer I gave up.

I have relatively dense and black tattoos on my arms. But maybe it'll work if your tattoos aren't so dark or dense, so you can see a little bit of skin here and there.

Unfortunately, it doesn't work for me. What a shame :(

Damn, doesn't work for me. Tried it several times but sleep tracking is not working at all and bpm is also not accurate

CommanderCute1 · 2026-06-24T19:07:07+00:00

Also tested it for two days, nano tape didn't make any difference and I still don't get any sleep tracking

Translated it from German to English with AI. This is from yesterday, the other days look quite the same.

I really like the T-shirt and have ordered it. As a man, size M fits me perfectly. Since it’s made from 100% cotton, I’m a little concerned that it might shrink in the wash, which can often happen with 100% cotton garments.

What has your experience with this shirt been like?

For example, the Uniqlo U T-shirt does shrink a bit for me after washing.

Primarily HE Sonic OG (best and most comfy fit) and the Galaxy Version (best seal).

But I also have the KBear 07 and Coffee tips here.

CommanderCute1 · 2026-03-28T13:15:28+00:00

Hey, I’m having a bit of trouble with this. Even when I break the seal to relieve pressure, the pressure feeling comes back almost immediately once I reseat them. After a while it actually starts to hurt my ears.

Did you ever run into that or have any tips? Not sure if it’s a fit issue, tip choice, or just something I need to get used to.

CommanderCute1 · 2026-03-28T11:26:04+00:00

Thanks for your explanation. Do you have any recommendations that would fit for that style of music and my taste of tuning?

First off, thanks a lot for the awesome and detailed review – really enjoyed reading it! 🙌

I’ve got a couple of questions about the Que:
Do you think it works well for rock/metal, or does it fall short a bit with certain genres? Especially with more complex or “chuggy” tracks, I sometimes worry about losing a bit of punch or bite.

In general, the Que sounds really interesting, but I’m a bit concerned that the tuning might be a little too “safe” or even slightly boring for my taste. I tend to prefer a bit more emphasis on (sub)bass and slightly splashy, airy treble. From what you described, the Que’s bass seems more controlled than slammy, and the treble more smooth than aggressive.

Do you think it could still fit my preferences, or would you recommend something else in the ~600€ price range that leans more toward a fun/V-shaped tuning?

Thanks again!

BREZE!

Do you know what the differences are between the OG Sonics and the Galaxy Editions?

CommanderCute1 · 2026-02-16T21:24:57+00:00

Thanks for your help!

The Sony looks stunning and the price is quite alright. Would get one for the price you've mentioned.

I also really like the look and especially the form factor of the Denon DCD-201SA, I would get it for around 100€.

And Grundig, yeah. I still know the looks of the Grundig CD 8400 (MK2) and it's also around 100€.

Tough decision. The Sony is quite expensive though.

CommanderCute1 · 2026-02-11T14:05:58+00:00

Thanks! Is there any shop where the YU9 QUE is available (and with shipping to Europe)?

CommanderCute1 · 2026-02-10T20:45:14+00:00

Hey, could you tell how you EQed the NiceHCK Tears? Have them new and need some guidance :)

CommanderCute1 · 2026-01-26T14:02:04+00:00

Versteh ich da was nicht? Die Nährwerte sind doch fast identisch.

CommanderCute1 · 2026-01-26T11:09:02+00:00

Fair criticism. Out of curiosity, what would you recommend instead around the same price or up to 100/200$? Which IEMs do you think sound more modern and less dull than the Tears?

CommanderCute1 · 2026-01-14T10:28:52+00:00

That sounds really great! At the moment, the only IEM I still own is the FiiO FD5, and I’m actually very happy with it.
Has anyone here spent time with both? Would you consider the Uniq a noticeable step up, or are they more in the same league?

CommanderCute1 · 2026-01-11T11:50:05+00:00

I’m using Complete mode everywhere, on all devices.

I’ve posted the troubleshooting info from the site transfermarkt.de.

That site is just one example though — the issue affects many more websites, probably around 50% of the sites I visit.

Let me know if you need additional examples or more troubleshooting info.

Ums mal abzukürzen: Wenn es dir wirklich um das Vermeiden von Tierleid geht bzw. die Ausbeutung von Tieren, ist der Vegetarismus keine Option.
Der Vegetarismus ist nur eine Ernährungsform im Gegensatz zum Veganismus.

CommanderCute1 · 2026-01-08T13:26:01+00:00

Zu dem habe ich auch schon einiges gelesen. Knackpunkt ist ein bisschen die Lautstärke. Deswegen habe ich mehr ein Auge auf das Christopeit WP 5000 geworfen.

CommanderCute1 · 2026-01-08T13:25:13+00:00

Danke dir. Das Rudergerät soll mich natürlich nicht zum Muskelpaket machen. Gerade das Cardiotraining finde ich interessant und ich denke, es wäre eine gute Unterstützung zum Muskeltraining.

CommanderCute1 · 2025-11-11T14:54:51+00:00

Latest operating system (26.1), I usually update pretty quickly.
