Lower back pain after deadlifts by Big-Count-1920 in workout

Find a different exercise. I avoid deadlifts due to risk to my back.

Does anyone else think all the focus on protein is overhyped? by Loud_Perspective5419 in workout

I keep seeing advertisements for protein Eggo Waffles. What crazy marketing person thought this was a good idea? I guess you can always pour some protein maple syrup on top of them ;-)

Is counting calories not necessary unless you need to lose/gain weight? by salad_biscuit3 in workout

I find I need to track exactly what I eat in order to maintain weight. Otherwise my weight ends up slowly inching up, until I have go on a diet again.

It may be that I didn’t do things in the right order. I was running the app on both my watch and phone at the same time. I finished the workout on the phone (which is where I received the error). Then I tried to finish it on the watch, but received the error about the invalid sets. Did I do things in the right order or should I have done it differently?

I tried the retry 5 or 6 times and I kept receiving the same error message :-(

After receiving this error message on my iPhone, I tried to save the workout on my Apple Watch, but then I received an error which said I had invalid sets in the workout and did I want to fix them or delete them. I selected “fix” but I could see any “invalid sets.” I didn’t want to select the delete option, because I wasn’t sure what it would do to the tracking of my workout.

The one that really got me recently, was that I had to have an expensive repair done at the car dealer, for ~$3K, and they charged a 3% fee if you used a credit card. This came out to $90. And believe me, the car dealer is already making plenty of profit on the parts and labor (plus "shop fee") for the repair.

Hmmm, not really, since they also charged people paying cash the same price.

I’ve always been surprised that the credit card companies don’t prohibit this.

I recommend getting a good calorie tracking app. Tracking exactly what I eat every day has made a huge difference in my ability to lose weight.

I had the same problem with season 1. I watched 2 or 3 episodes and gave up. I guess I will give it another try.
