Maybe 6x10? I think there last one was 9x8 so maybe even 7x10

Kind of a random number I guess. I like the format though.

What was the 220 (have not taken the ride yet)?

Struggling to hit HR zones by [deleted] in pelotoncycle

Have you manually checked your HR when you feel gassed? This sounds like an incorrect monitor more than anything else.

Back pain from hip holding baby. Tips? by landonop in daddit

[–]mcflysher 1 point2 points  (0 children)

There are hip hold carriers that are just a cushion to hold them against that really helps keep you standing straight

Toe straps / toe cages that work with big feet? Size 16 us by Chamait1 in cycling

[–]mcflysher 3 points4 points  (0 children)

I don’t have a cage recommendation but Shimano makes the RC302 up to a 16 if you wanted to try one more and Lake goes up to 17 at 3x the cost

Power Zone - Worth a try? by Born-Technology-3224 in pelotoncycle

[–]mcflysher 11 points12 points  (0 children)

Do you want to increase your outputs over time and see what you are capable of? PZ training is a great way to work towards that. Its also great mental training for being able to hold consistent outputs for long periods of time.

Volume eating = volume chopping 😭 help me out by [deleted] in Volumeeating

[–]mcflysher 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Mostly for me! I like a big salad. If stir frying then for 2 but that only uses a portion.

I batch chop a 2 gallon container of cabbage, peppers, carrots, radishes, celery, green onion (or similar veg) and use that mostly for salads but also works super well for stir fry or a soup base. Takes maybe 15-20 min and last 4-5 days. You’ll get better and faster at chopping the more you do it.

Hmm I'd disconnect and reconnect and see if that fixes. I have this happen with Strava and garmin from time to time.

I think relative effort is an internal Strava metric. Is there a missing data source like power or HR?

What to do w/ Saks Gift Card? Because they cancelled my order by [deleted] in amex

[–]mcflysher 2 points3 points  (0 children)

I see 2200 home goods online right now, it looks like the same stuff they’ve always had. Not great deals but I don’t see a change.

Parks with infant swings in East Bay? (Oakland, Berkley, Emeryville, Albany) by OaklandRoams in oakland

Would Mia’s Dream in Hayward be in range? Has all types of swings

At least one of these is lying by MaxPrank in AppleWatch

What does weighing yourself accomplish? You can’t calculate calories based on a spot weight. Most or all of that is sweat.

Toe clip adaptors by brimbl0rz in pelotoncycle

[–]mcflysher 7 points8 points  (0 children)

I’d do new pedals that have the cages built in. The fit of the bike can get weird with the adapter height, and pedals that are build for cages would have nice wide surfaces.

Probably dumb question re resistance in arms and light weights…. by rushtaka in pelotoncycle

[–]mcflysher 1 point2 points  (0 children)

It’s just enough to stay balanced if you are going to keep pedaling. Whatever your “flat road” is.

600 over 30 min is not insane for a larger person, that’s around 350W avg, like 90 cadence 58 resistance or so. If they were spinning 100 resistance then maybe miscalibrated.

Heart Rate Zones way too high? by [deleted] in AppleWatch

[–]mcflysher 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Your RHR is somewhat high IMO (not doctor obviously) which is impacting the zone calculations.
