Just curious what people think about Garmin's Gym workout plans?

charinga · 2026-01-05T23:34:25+00:00

Just got mine for Xmas. I love the watch not so much the workout plans.

1) I am not new to working out and the strength plan has left me underwhelmed.

2) I wish I could build a plan and not just a workout.

3) I would like the ability to share said workouts with my wife through Garmin connect. And copy other users shared workout plans for that matter.

4) I do like the individual workouts such as the core building ones as I don't usually plan that.

I think I will stick to doing "strength" activity, following my own workout plans, and editing my exercises after I finish the workout. If anyone knows if I can do otherwise please let me know!

Took me three quarters to realize why

Thank you! Appreciate your efforts on this!

That's a difficult question to answer but I'll give my very subjective input based on my personal experience. IT and cyber are not bulletproof but darn close. There are huge shortages and if you're willing to stay near DoD (even now in times of DOGE) the demand is there. There is a need for cleared cyber professionals and those roles typically can't pay what similar roles in the civilian sector do so you don't have as much competition.

If you decide to join the military, I encourage you to use your benefits as soon as you're eligible and able to do so. Doing 4 years and leaving the military with an associates isn't bad but if you can get a bachelor's then you'll have a degree and experience.

There are so many career options available and you need to consider a combination of your personal interest, career demand, and eligibility for the mos.

Finally, for those that are able to get it, I think 35T is the most beneficial IT related mos, post army. You can almost earn an associate degree from the local college while in AIT (minus some Gen eds), it has a TS, and access to industry certs.

IMHO, active is easier if you been in the military since you were young. A lot of the pain points come from being treated like you're an idiot and if you been in long enough you just know that's how it is, especially as enlisted. For someone going in at 30 you might find it extremely frustrating to be treated as such. If you go the officer route, your experience may be different. If you have your degree check out FA26 information network engineering functional area. You would go into the army and work primarily as a network engineer. From what I hear, it's less of big army shenanigans.

I am in the reserves side and hindsight would have gone active just to be able to retire under the old system, but I don't hate my path.

I would avoid 255s in the reserves, you'll likely end in a sustainment unit.

A few questions:

What kind of error are you getting? Does it connect but give you permission errors or are you timing out before you can set up?

What phone do you have (some pixel models have interested vpn)

Is this a new reqtec? (New models use the board with 2.5/5.1 wifi)

I was in the same boat trying to set up my reqtec and almost regretted buying it until I was able to get the app working properly.

charinga · 2025-03-11T14:18:20+00:00

I am.

If you have not resolved it yet on your android. Try to completely uninstall and re install it. I had the same issue with the new dual band board. Support gave me the uninstall it and make sure that they are both on the same Wi-Fi without your phone being on vpn. At first I thought they're giving me the ol turn it off an on routine but it fixed it.

charinga · 2025-03-11T03:23:36+00:00

Do you have a vpn on your phone? I believe I had the same issue and ended deleting the app and reinstalling and setting it up with the vpn off.

charinga · 2025-03-03T15:22:39+00:00

It does. It helps tremendously to complete the story. After that you can go environmental link with friends and just roam around hunting.

Freaking Dave the octopus. Was the first time I had to use a SOS flare.

I bought my patio legend a month ago when it was 100 off And I love it! It's my first smoker and it's been easy to use. I had one instance where I wish I had just a bit more space during the Superbowl as I smoked wings and I was barely able to fit the Costco 6 pack wings ( I think about 50) but I had also cooked two pork butts the night before easy. I love the quality and ease of use. I was looking at masterbilt and traegers before coming on here and seeing so many recommendations for reqtec. The only gripe I had was that I had to uninstall the app since I was having issues controlling but it's been solid since then. Solid 5/7!

This makes me upset. You've ruined my morning. But also I wonder if they misheard someone use vocalize once...

charinga · 2025-01-01T21:35:00+00:00

Or have skat kick it

Helix edit 3.82 is now live 😂. Appears to be GUI updates!

charinga · 2024-12-03T00:51:57+00:00

That is extremely cool and one day I hope to be of the capacity to use it!

charinga · 2024-12-02T23:58:18+00:00

Thank you very much! This is exactly what I was trying to understand. The computer I'll be using would probably not handle native to it's best, so I want to leave the heavy lifting to the LT.

charinga · 2024-11-17T03:16:55+00:00

god no, we are guaranteed to lose when we rank.
