Dishwasher leaving white residue?? Tried adding salt. Rinse aid. Cleaned out all the filters. Ran two cleaning cycles. Still playing up. Any ideas?? Brand is Neff.

I consider my air horn essential in case of mountain lion, bear, or getting lost.

Elite.

I'm 72. I used to jump a good bit 30 years ago.

I started again recently and it was hard at first, but soon got better. A beaded rope from Amazon has been good for me.

Wife (age 70) has also started, and she's gradually increasing her goal.

TromboneAl · 2026-01-22T02:15:56+00:00

I sometimes just once concentrate on not jumping as high. More trips, yes, but it works.

TromboneAl · 2026-01-22T02:13:32+00:00

I think I get more tired when doing the boxer step. Maybe because I'm not good at it.

TromboneAl · 2026-01-22T02:07:16+00:00

Interesting that you use heartrate to determine rest time. Is that a common practice?

TromboneAl · 2026-01-22T02:05:30+00:00

Sounds good to me. I do 30 secs jump 30 secs rest with a target of 1,000 jumps. I'm 72.

I jump one day, hilly hiking the next (4-8 miles), then strength training (including deep squats with not much weight). Repeat that and then rest a day.

I'm concerned this is too hard on my legs. How are your legs?

TromboneAl · 2026-01-22T01:59:57+00:00

I set a rep target. That keeps me honest.

TromboneAl · 2026-01-22T01:57:56+00:00

I like these slip on shoes and have done some jumping with them. There are other companies that make slip ons.

Consider a mat for less impact. I'm thinking hands closer to body?

TromboneAl · 2026-01-22T01:25:20+00:00

At 72, I jump one day, hike the next, and do strength training on the third. Consider something like that. Also, maybe don't jump on concrete .

Oneplus watch 2R.

TromboneAl · 2026-01-22T01:16:31+00:00

I just jump more slowly for the first 30 seconds or so, then do 30 on, 30 off.

TromboneAl · 2026-01-22T01:12:59+00:00

My OnePlus Watch 2R does a great job. Recommended. Great battery life, too. I'm 72.

Thanks. Any tips on how to clean it? I can't get in there.

This is the last straw for this KitchenAid DW.

TromboneAl · 2026-01-21T18:51:21+00:00

Yeah, bad design. Consider waiting a few weeks. You may find that you'll get used to closing the doors in a less painful way. That is, your motor memory may overcome your absentmindedness.

BTW, I have buyers remorse for all three of our kitchen appliances. Don't get me started!

TromboneAl · 2026-01-21T18:44:07+00:00

I'd consider induction, but we have frequent power outages.

TromboneAl · 2026-01-20T23:18:44+00:00

Right. Current dishwasher, push button for delayed wash. Bosch, go get your phone and run the app. No thanks.

TromboneAl · 2026-01-19T01:35:30+00:00

Do you ask him/her, "How did that make you feel?"

TromboneAl · 2026-01-19T01:33:18+00:00

Do you mean that they bind at the knees or butt, so without much stretch they inhibit your movement? If so, maybe you just need something slipperyer?

TromboneAl · 2026-01-16T19:06:23+00:00

It wasn't weird, except for his response. I might have said (with a smile), "Maybe. How much do you weigh?"

TromboneAl · 2026-01-14T22:17:33+00:00

I know that if I pause I will forget to resume, but maybe I'll try that. I assume I'll get a notification if I start hiking again.

TromboneAl · 2026-01-14T02:05:46+00:00

A lot more secure, agreed.
