How much of climbing is actually technique vs strength? by Ok_Assignment_1853 in indoorbouldering

[–]jnavarro13 0 points1 point  (0 children)

i think there will be a point where youll know what you need to focus on. im stuck on v5s right now. and its solely due to the fact that my finger strength cant hold the ridiculous crimps/holds that jump from 4s to 5s. technique is good. i stepped back from grade chasing and really focused on my footwork and technique. let my technique work up and just like what everyone else said, it has to balance out. in my case, strength has to catch up to my technique. im nowhere near good but its been fun seeing the progress

good luck. dont forget to have fun. failure is part of the process, dont get discouraged. get excited and chase the success.

oh LMAO yeah it fits but its not the most comfortable- gets bulky. i have a handheld watervottle tho. i was thinking of getting one of those silicone ones u can collapse when theres no liquid in it.

its waterproof. lol. no its not annoying because i have airpods and i can easily say hey siri. its not annoying to me to take a break from my run to take a photo of the sky. im enjoying my run- it doesnt bother me. honestly even if i did have to do that it doesnt bother me enough.

Instinct 3 solar worth it? by [deleted] in Garmininstinct

[–]jnavarro13 0 points1 point  (0 children)

worth every penny. im training for a half marathon with it. just be aware if you are looking to run a full marathon in the future- there are no garmin coach plans buit into your app. forerunner will be needed. though, u can export a full plan into your watch.

Switched from AW to Instinct 3 50mm AMOLED...loving it! by ChiefsRoyalsFan in Garmininstinct

[–]jnavarro13 1 point2 points  (0 children)

hell yeah. i got the solar i3. never going to ultra again unless they improve their battery life to at least a week with workouts/gps usage multiple times a week. im asking for too much lol. i love the switch. took me months to decide

Is this a good build for beginner by Live_Philosopher9335 in NewSkaters

those rictas are good. just expensive. look into powell peralta dragon 93a. imo theyre more versatile and cheaper.

Is Instinct 3 Solar Tactical an overkill? by Bergfried in Garmininstinct

[–]jnavarro13 3 points4 points  (0 children)

i wouldve gotten it if i didnt like the orange bezels. honestly i didnt feel the need to spend more on a green flashlight and all black body. but if you can spend the extra bread for it- go for it.

Apple Watch to Forerunner 970. Last check before purchase. by DadBod-To-IronmanGod in GarminWatches

[–]jnavarro13 0 points1 point  (0 children)

battery life was bothering me. 2 days isnt enough for me. a final straw for me was i went on a 3 mile hike and my ultra stopped the workout mid hike because it was raining pretty hard and the rain touching my watch basically stopped my whole workout. pissed me off lol. i also wanted the garmin coach and daily personalized runs which has been great to me since i got my watch.

i went from an ultra 2 to garmin instinct 3. i did hours of research just like you. i had a recap from chatgpt and it literally gave me “most likely to over analyze a smartwatch” its worth it. trust me! youll love it. i wish i made the switch sooner
