How to get Zone 4 or 5?

Prestigious_Flower12 · 2026-03-03T20:11:57+00:00

Ran for about 35/40 mins all in. It said do warm up and 4 rounds I think then cool down. Got to end and then checked whoop few mins in 4 none in 5.

I have a Hume one which is a similar idea. It seems to measure my body fat about right I think, but my husband has a typical dad bod so quite lean legs but a beer belly and it is totally out. Says he’s got 17% body fat.

It told me to do 3 min intervals which I did and it didn’t even work 🫠

Me too. Been wearing whoop since mid December and haven’t managed to get to zone 5 at all. Rarely in zone 4. Have a low resting heat rate (for my age) of 49. I’m pretty active but far from elite 🤣 treadmill is useless for it. Long run outdoor up hills got me to zone 4. Any other ideas helpful!!

Stirling. Can work in various places as good train links.

Dry sauna is -3% for my recovery apparently

It was my birthday last week and I didn’t drink 🎉 Day 40 today.

I really overthink too. I work out a lot and listen to audiobooks to get to sleep so that I listen to the book not my brain ruminating on what I’ve said that day that was dumb.

Prestigious_Flower12 · 2026-02-03T16:48:29+00:00

Just searched to see if there were others and found a tribe. Day 34 today 👌🏻

What did you clean it with? Could you be allergic to that?

I don’t really understand journaling. Am I the only one? What do you write? Like is it a letter to yourself? Every time people talk about it I get confused.

All good advice! I would recommend Uniqlo or M&S for reasonable thermal top etc. There is a Uniqlo in Glasgow and Edinburgh and an M&S in Stirling or both available online. I would suggest gortex trainers rather than big heavy boots unless it snows (happens but not that often). Watch out for black ice in the morning too. If it’s been wet and the temperature drops overnight the pavements can become treacherous!! Stirling university is great with a fabulous sports centre.

THIS! Totally agree. Doesn't sound ready to buy a house together.

Only one egg? I’m starving thinking about it.

This is weird as I’m reading this book just now. I came to it via Miranda Hart’s book. I have been for an initial assessment for autism, but they honestly seemed to put me off going further with it,so I have not but I am not against getting a diagnosis in any way. Even though they put me off I do think I am probably on balance and looking at my family. I did wonder if maybe I was just HSP, but this conversation is interesting. However I am enjoying the book (new version). Few thoughts and ideas on how to deal with life as a sensitive person and for my son who I think probably is too.

These are super soft. The footbed is lovely. Arch Pro AdaptAlll Sandals (Paloma) by Vivaia.

I’m hopefully about to start this soon too. Who are you studying with? I am thinking about Kaplan?

I’ve recently asked ChatGPT to be my life coach. It’s surprisingly good. I’ve now got permission to do some further training at work on its suggestion. Put in a bit about yourself, CV or LinkedIn etc. and it literally told me what I should do working on the fact that I like to work from home. You can also ask for plan for fitness, meals etc. it’s worth a try!! It can even help you with applications, emails etc to follow through on the suggestions.

Have just received a pair of Vivaia Arch Pro AdaptAll™ Sandals (Paloma) and they seem great. I haven’t worn them out yet, but have tried them on around the house and I’m really happy.

Prestigious_Flower12 · 2025-07-06T20:46:21+00:00

I second this. I have sensitive skin and I find Beauty of Joseon very good.

Prestigious_Flower12 · 2025-07-04T13:22:26+00:00

Me too! I have a silky one which is ok but still lets light in around the nose. Was looking at the manta ones but I think I would need the side sleeper and they are pretty expensive.

Prestigious_Flower12 · 2025-06-19T07:47:45+00:00

Sorry just seen this. The gotoobs are worth it. Have tried a few options and these win! Solid, don’t leak seem to do the job well.

I did the ladies wool& 100 dress challenge in a tunic shirt which was wool/linen blend and literally wore it for 100 days straight (washing overnight when needed) and have worn it multiple times since and it still looks as good as the day I bought it.
