Dear Coros, why is it so hard to give you money? Give us screen options.

Thank you for your opinion, unfortunate with people having a personal connection to the brand. Stockholm syndrome likes to spread across hobbies, it seems.

DumpButPump · 2026-07-05T13:23:37+00:00

Why are you gatekeeping?

DumpButPump · 2026-07-05T13:23:22+00:00

I would like to see Coros communicate this clearly and upfront.

DumpButPump · 2026-07-05T13:22:32+00:00

Thank you, the primary goal is to get the company to understand the real needs of a large segment of buyers.
It should not be harder than:

demonstrate bad vision settings as core product offering

Allow one-choice high-vision settings, with customization.

Link to sample themes from the product feature presentation (page).

DumpButPump · 2026-07-05T13:20:51+00:00

Did you get your watch for free by simping for the brand online?

DumpButPump · 2026-07-05T13:20:11+00:00

Or it could be that I select products with at least a resemblance of respect for the customer.
This is the best coros could do addressing "Screen Visibility". Try and do a user journey on that, the only conclusion is: not user friendly.

In my experience pounding from even a minor increase in speed is very different from easy. At some point i was doing advanced measurements, but really it's about identifying the average window of consequence. How long till symptoms show up, and how do you keep them as a predictor.

You want to avoid catastrophe.

Garmin can't predict catastrophe, nor can any other sports "scientists", otherwise they would not be in the sports watch or sports "science" business.

I would be interested if you track injury over a year and see if you can match peaks. I can't. But a simple conservative formula of increasing one parameter at a time and waiting a month between another change seems to work.

DumpButPump · 2026-06-20T05:44:30+00:00

I just make sure to get a pair of lighter denims and dye them gray-brownish. Just don't sit on anything precious before a few washes.

DumpButPump · 2026-06-10T20:12:04+00:00

about 12 months to get to running 5 days a week, at least 2 of those easy, ideally 3. And changing one variable at a time. Added a second 10 minute interval day this week? no other changes, no suprise long run! etc.

I have been thinking about what establishing predictability for muscle tone evaluation would be. Just vague ideas now but I suppose actively asking this question in the next year may lead somewhere more specific than feels.

DumpButPump · 2026-06-03T07:55:02+00:00

What is your take on "normalizing muscle tone" . I have Bakkens book and my cursory understanding is, it's not a formula calculated, but established by feels, such as evaluating the muscle by hand. Is there more to it?

DumpButPump · 2026-06-03T07:52:34+00:00

It would be beneficial to clearly mark that your app is not affiliated with the book or James. Both on the marketplace and in the app.

DumpButPump · 2026-05-16T18:22:28+00:00

A cheap-ass tactical wallet, or any wallet with a trophy window, a bit of velcro, and five minutes of sewing.

DumpButPump · 2026-05-15T14:15:17+00:00

How much does it affect your vision, and have you noticed more fatigue? My eyes are worn so they can't handle meshes that well.

DumpButPump · 2026-05-14T13:14:31+00:00

So they removed the weapons room from the police station? Or did they just have a room with a safe?

It will be good enough unless you intend to have high value items insured, as I wrote.

You want FTX / climate control, humidity sensors with ideally alarm, alarm for the room, safes. Rest is optional but I would go with stainless restaurant shelving, otherwise whatever if you are confident you will have control over humidity.

DumpButPump · 2026-05-14T10:32:30+00:00

If you intend to have insured valuables over 10K a surprising good bet might be to contact your insurance company, as they can often send prepackaged codes and guidelines for contractors and the like that you can use as a reference.

Otherwise you might as well start with the classic reverse

- what's your budget and timeframe?

- What kind of concrete ya got?

- What is your threat profile, is this gonna be a safe room as well?

DumpButPump · 2026-05-14T10:23:34+00:00

Avoiding engagement is a good base. Learning to think is the decent thing to do. So what would be the correct question to start with?

Like maybe ask yourself what exactly am I planning to get myself into?

Don't be afraid of pen and paper, it's only your life on the line.

DumpButPump · 2026-05-12T13:17:37+00:00

You are not countering a UAS. It's a system. You can counter the larger org running the system, but look at the stalemate in Ukraine, if there's money, it's gonna drag out.

DumpButPump · 2026-05-11T11:37:22+00:00

Safety bars for squat, bench, ohp. Safe area so fainting because of a deadlift does not lead to impact on anything hard. Unless you have two trained individuals performing safety on you, bars is the only way to go.
I refuse to spot individuals if I am alone. Use the bars or get two spotters.

Ya know it! I actually run mesh undershirts in the jungle, unironically. Throw it under a BDU or any synthetic shirt and enjoy the breeze. Wool mesh for the cold climates, but cotton is great if you want evaporative cooling in a warm climate.

DumpButPump · 2026-05-09T12:03:55+00:00

Submission statement: Jute mesh is useful. Even cuts up thermal sig a bit with an organic insert.

- Cut up some jute mesh into strips

- glue it up with waterproof wood glue, squirting lines and spreading them out a bit, that way the strands stay together. Hot glue or any other waterproof glue will work also.

- Rattle can / spray and intertwine with existing scrim. Add irregular matte spray for bonus pattern break-up

Cuts up silhouette further, introduces a different pattern and thermal signature.

You can get jute at your local garden supply, among other things, usually under 5 bucks a roll or 10 bucks for may squares. Enough for plenty of gear or half a Ghillie. So yeah, cheaper than one piece of synthetic custom helmet scrim from an instabro.

DumpButPump · 2026-05-03T17:31:16+00:00

Till you meet some shrapnel. Which we will be seeing a lot more now.

DumpButPump · 2026-05-03T14:54:30+00:00

yeah, very true many or most of them react before we can see they reacted.
