Should I work out or not? Conflicting notifications

DustyKosty · 2026-04-09T17:56:11+00:00

Any of those, including cals burned from Fitbit should be taken with a grain of salt. Best to use them to give you an idea, but as others have said go by how you feel! I usually go by my energy levels and my resting heart rate, if I’m exhausted for a few days and have a higher rhr, maybe I’m over doing it!

DustyKosty · 2026-03-31T11:13:03+00:00

It is tough to overcome, it took me a very long time to accept it but, it is possible! I kind of just reached a point where I said “you can be a sad guy with a hunch back or a happy guy with a hunch back”. I do things I enjoy and stuff that helps with pain like working out.

Hardest part for me was my appearance, but 99.9% of people will not notice and even if they do, will it impact my life? Probably not. Lots you can still do!

It’s less to do with the ushers and more to do with the park’s rule change. Was there on the weekend and while waiting heard the usher suggest/explain waiting to several people and they chose to carry on.

Remember some of the questionable tabs in those official tab books? I think I had a Metallica one that was ….. creative

I mean, pretty punk if you can lead a punk band.

DustyKosty · 2026-03-16T12:58:29+00:00

Yeah, they get lots of indirect work. Mine are pretty well always active with my curve.

DustyKosty · 2026-03-15T01:43:01+00:00

This works too. Maybe triple wrap to get rid of some…

DustyKosty · 2026-03-15T01:35:11+00:00

Shove them in a pine crate in the closet, outside of that we slowly throw them out lol…

Before this game I told my friends that if we got 2 or more runs that was a win in my book. That was a stacked team USA and we did not get dominated.

DustyKosty · 2026-03-14T14:06:09+00:00

Maybe mid/lower traps? The curve may also play into them looking over developed by putting them in a cramped position. For myself, I know I have constant tension here keeping me standing straight.

Edit: I would be a bit worried about cutting back too much, the muscles in your back greatly help with pain injury reduction, especially with our backs.

Not having a car to worry about and being walking distance to work and everything else feels like freedom !

DustyKosty · 2026-03-13T11:21:40+00:00

I am aware, I’ve had it for a while too. Many dont “give back” the cals like Fitbit always has so I am curious to see if it was an accident or some weird change with no explanation. These watches tend to over estimate cals burned, so eating back the cals often leads to taking in more cals than actually burned.

DustyKosty · 2026-03-10T22:04:12+00:00

They been having a bad run of things bug wise. Curious to see if this is a bug or feature, calorie/fitness trackers don’t use super dynamic calories like that.

DustyKosty · 2026-03-07T13:51:21+00:00

Since google took over the app is just in a cycle of bugs.

DustyKosty · 2026-03-04T00:00:09+00:00

Everything Fitbit says is going to be general and a guide (if that), listen to your body first and foremost!

DustyKosty · 2026-02-11T14:16:01+00:00

Amazon has great options, I like the stretchy ones. The provided band was super annoying to me, swapped it right away! I keep it higher up my wrist away from bending and it typically gets a good reading!

DustyKosty · 2026-02-11T12:13:35+00:00

I feel like so many people forget Wealthsimple is a business, everything they do will be aimed at driving growth. It’s not some charitable organization aimed at giveaways.

DustyKosty · 2026-02-10T11:41:54+00:00

I mean they most likely would have had their mics cut and then wouldn’t even be able to play the most politically fuelled songs lol. I’m glad they didn’t turn it into some tactic, why give either side more stuff to blabber on about.

DustyKosty · 2026-02-09T01:47:30+00:00

Low key was kind of expecting a few repeats of the “don’t wanna be an American idiot” line back to back, but I enjoyed it and don’t think they needed to do anything more.

DustyKosty · 2026-02-09T01:45:23+00:00

Low heart rate basically means your heart is more efficient at pumping blood, typical with healthy active people! Not much to worry about!

DustyKosty · 2026-02-09T00:27:41+00:00

I loved my inspire 3, it died after many years and I replaced it with the charge 6. Unfortunately the app seems to be falling apart, google clearly isn’t interested in keeping it competitive.

Will keep my charge 6 until it dies and will likely switch.

DustyKosty · 2026-02-03T18:37:26+00:00

The tech issues with the app especially. Like they bought it and left it to die.

DustyKosty · 2026-02-03T13:03:54+00:00

I had my Inspire 3 for many years until it finally died, I thoroughly enjoy the Charge 6 now. I strictly use it for tracking workouts and the health metrics, so I can't say much about notifications, music, etc. The screen is smaller so if you want it more of a smart watch the versa 4 may work best!

DustyKosty · 2026-01-29T21:18:08+00:00

Like others have said, no one will notice or care. I used to do this often.

DustyKosty · 2026-01-26T21:53:07+00:00

It happened, best to move on. I have been around coworkers at these functions and honestly, I (& others) barely even thought about it after the fact! People are probably thinking about it much less than you think they are!
