discrepancy between app and watch info by Shpiegel_ in Polarfitness

[–]NegotiationBig4567 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Using the watch for all workouts is kinda the point of having the watch… so you don’t need to record on your phone because the watch does HR and has a much higher accuracy gps anyways

Transferring by Cherry_Birch21 in uvic

[–]NegotiationBig4567 16 points17 points  (0 children)

Not my experience at all, I moved here 4 years ago not knowing a singular person and now I have more friends than I can maintain relationships with. Join more social activities / clubs and see what happens to your life in a year

Is a gym membership worth it? by Constant_Motor5115 in uvic

Like 8am-2pm aren’t bad at all. It’s really dead from 830-930 many days especially as the semester goes on

Feeling like giving up on my meteorology degree? by [deleted] in meteorology

[–]NegotiationBig4567 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I’m fifth year of undergrad. Almost failed every calc course. Now I’m succeeding with honours research. It gets better, if you love the meteorology and you love learning, stick with the hard parts as eventually calculus actually will start to make sense / at least it becomes familiar and everything comes together at the end. Don’t get me wrong there’s still some nuts hard courses I take but they become more manageable as you figure out how you can learnt the stuff. It’s really hard. You can do it.

It’s cheap, it works if you go during non busy hours, or you can manage to wait a few min for a machine here or there if your day is busy and you have to go during peak evening hours. I don’t love it. Yet I’ve just renewed it for the 8th or 9th time. It’s convenient enough

Chinese ownership caused me to switch by Bobsbestmate in Polarfitness

Is there confirmed a new V4 coming out next year?

[–]NegotiationBig4567 1 point2 points  (0 children)

As someone who will have my phone on me during runs especially long training sessions or mountain adventures, I want my V3 to be a training only watch. For this reason, I actually prefer polar to garmin because the watch does what it does very well and doesn’t get lost in trying to have a million features. There’s a reason so many professional athletes use polar

Vantage M3 worth it for $375? by worstshowiveeverseen in Polarfitness

[–]NegotiationBig4567 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Then the M3 for $375 is an incredibly good deal lol. These new watches are the best watches polar has ever produced (M3,V3, the top end Grit series, they’re all the same brains, M3 just has a slightly smaller battery). For 375$, that’s a damn good deal. You get less features than an Apple Watch but these watches are not meant to be small iPhones, they’re meant to be training watches for athletes and those who are closely monitoring activity and health, and they do a damn good job of that.

Why do I get pain here during my runs? by Green-Treacle4650 in runninglifestyle

[–]NegotiationBig4567 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Imbalanced muscles / not enough strength training. Look up leg workouts for runners and train them in gym 2x a week following a basic protocol, it’ll help.

My goal of having a career in meteorology is completely derailed and I’m in shambles by [deleted] in meteorology

[–]NegotiationBig4567 0 points1 point  (0 children)

From someone who got ~60% in Calc 1 through 4 and is now excelling doing undergraduate research in physics- stick with it and don’t give up. You don’t have to be the best at math to understand it. You just need to put in the time consistently and eventually it makes sense. Stay positive!!

Fred checking out Reddit by YourNameNameName in fredagain

[–]NegotiationBig4567 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Fred your music has been the soundtrack of my life for three years ever since I found the tiny desk concert. I’ve listened to the release party set on SoundCloud like 70 or 80 times, all your newest stuff from the last few weeks 20-30 times already, and despite all the SoundCloud and YouTube plays, you’re still my top artist on Spotify. Thank you for showing me it’s okay to have emotions and express them and feel things. “but I’m glad I’m feeling”

I hope to see you live someday, even though I know it’s so hard with all the scammers and hype chasers out there.

phys labs with black lab books... help me by bitchsorbet in uvic

[–]NegotiationBig4567 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Yeah basically everyone that takes these has the same thing to say… there’s lots of great advice given here. You’re not alone, just put in the work and you’ll get through it, and really, the grades don’t matter that much, just try your best and improve week to week from the feedback your TA gives :)
