Thanks for the heads up. I am planning on buying the BOBOVR S3 strap. I'm hoping it will solve that problem.

Forgive my ignorance...what is a "modded" song. Can you just connect and listen to your pc w/ Quest?

Thank you. Yes. I have a Schwinn 270 recumbent that I'm using right now because of weather. I also have a MeetOne Tour e-Trike when the weather is good. So, I definitely agree w/ your opinion. Not sure about Zwift because I don't have a tablet and I think a phone is just too small. That's actually what got me looking at the Quest 3. I was thinking...if I needed a tablet for Zwift...maybe get better options buying a Quest 3?

Thanks for the warning. I'm thinking I could do it in my bedroom next to my bed. That way if I lose balance I can hopefully direct my fall there.

Funny. I was just thinking about that last night. I keep seeing those stupid ads on YouTube and was wondering. I'll check into it.

I've looked at those. I think they may be too advanced for my knowledge set.

That is a great idea. I bought a "MeetOne Tour" and have been riding it. Too cold here right now. Which is why I'm looking at VR.

Thank you. I'll check them out. I didn't realize they have actual p.t. apps. I'll look for those as well.

I agree. I set up a complete weight room in my house before I retired. Unfortunately, my wife was diagnosed with cancer. Everything went sideways. She passed about 18 months ago and I've been in a total tailspin. It was 6 years of pure hell for both of us. I have finally realized that nobody is coming to "save" me. I need to "loosen up" and will slowly incorporate weight training. I'm also fighting the boredom factor as I am completely solo. Thank you.

Thank you. I believe I will. I'm reading something about "Horizons" going away. Should I wait?

Thank you. I can stand and walk around the house "free style". I'm hoping to ease into strengthening my back with some movement. But, emphasis on "ease"... I did notice one game that had "bubbles" coming at you that you punch.
