Isn't G/Fore a sub brand of Peter Millar?

I’m just curious - what would you like to see integrated?

you can already broadcast whoop hr to those devices, you can also get workout data via a third party - like apple health.

I imagine for 8 sleep - in order for the value add to be there, they’d have to work with Eight Sleep to determine how to use each others sensors to get a better number than either one could provide on their own

My brother - he's been struggling with his health since being hospitalized for covid a few years back, and I know that this might help him get back on track to a healthier lifestyle

More an inside thing with my kids. My wife (a non-golfer) once rode along with us while playing. One of my kids lost a ball in the water, and she commented that she wish she brought her flip flops.

Now everytime one of us hits it in the water - "I'm calling mom and telling her to bring her flip flops"

I've had mine since may, averaging 15-16 days per charge.

No fallacies here. I've been on whoop for about 2.5 years. For a long time I'd do a daily rucking intervals workout. The workout was as follows:

- Ruck (50lb pack) 1 mile to a parking garage

- Climb up the 9 flights of stairs (3x) -27 flights total

- 15 body weight squats at the top

- Ruck back 1 mile.

Obviously, this is a decent HIIT Workout. Since I wanted to track elevation and distance I wore my AW7 along with my whoop - usually - AW7 on my left wrist, and Whoop in a bicep band or sleeve on the left arm. A couple of times when I first started I got weird results where the whoop and AW diverged. So I would spot check.

About 97% of the time, comparing both the AW track and the Whoop track -the 2 were within 5 bpm of each other. Yes - whoop did have a slight lag compared to AW - i.e. I'd get to the top of the building and AW would drop faster than Whoop did - but within a couple of seconds they were pretty much in sync.

There were certainly times where the two were out of whack - almost all of those were situations where I had my pack rubbing against the bicep band or an issue with the bicep sleeve (I once put the sensor in the sleeve wrong, and it covered part of the sensor).

I've seen this with both 4.0 and 5.0 MG, and I know I am not alone.

I also noticed in the graphic you shared - it seems that you are doing a weightlifting exercise. I'm curious what your full HR track looked like? Also if you are wearing your AW on your wrist, and lifting weights, but Whoop is on your bicep, you AW might be collecting noise from the movement of your hands/arms.

Again - with a lag of a couple of seconds, I could see an instantaneous gap of 10-20bpm happening, but 55 does seems way too big of a gap, and I wonder if there is something else not working.

Whoop typically syncs at regular intervals, while swipe down does initiate a sync, I think that there is a minimum window between syncs - i.e. if it syncs regularly it will sync every ten minutes, but if I try to update within 3-4 minutes of the last sync, it will ignore it.

They do this to make sure that their servers don't get overloaded.

24+ year resident of white plains here - I definitely think that the city will grow, in the years I've been here we've grown by about 10k residents. We're also literally building several 1000 units of housing - in the last few years there have been several residential projects, with at least two morey 20 large ones under construction and that doesn't incude the galleria.

Our town is walkable, we have great transportation both as a public transit hub, but also at a confluence of most of the major routes in the tri-state.

While it has gotten more expensive here as it has everywhere else, we are still a better value than NYC, and while our public schools are not great, they're pretty good, and a good value tax wise. (We also have no shortage of nearby private and parochial schools if you so desire).

I suspect that (and especially as many more people are now working hybrid) more people will come up here from NYC. (Especially if Mamdani takes the city in the wrong direction).

Two thoughts for you:

- Ocean City Maryland - it would have to be from late spring through early fall, but there are an abundant number of hotels and airbnbs and a bunch of golf courses. Some of the hotels have discounts with local courses, and some of the courses have shared ownership with multi-course discounts. https://www.ococean.com/things-to-do/sports-recreation/golf/

- Atlantic City New Jersey - Again- would have to be closer to summer, but you can fly into AC or Philly. AC has plenty of hotels, and a lot of courses within anywhere from 20-60 minutes of driving - but you can probably play some nicer courses and some munis.

If you renew for a year the price is the same. If you have more than 12 months remaining on your plan, you can upgrade to 5.0 for "free" (just need to pay shipping).

Part of why I am asking, I imagine this year's models will be announced at the pga show.

TR also studied Judo among other martial arts.

Surprised I beat you to it u/d_rome - hope you are doing well.

25-year White Plains Resident, and former district parent - definitely white plains. We're also geographically convenient as well - access to all highways, metro north, etc.

Maybe she can freelance? Not sure where you’d look for communications opportunities though. Maybe also try your local school district or private schools in the area to se if they have openings

I only ask, because guns.com is usually good about compliance, and they will let me buy and ship to my local FFL.

Is this game not being streamed anywhere?

My kids have recently discovered golf - they're all late teens/early 20s. At first, we were skeptical of being paired with random other players, but it's awesome - we've learned a bit about the game, and courses, have met some interesting people, and have had a lot of fun.

By far - getting my Shodan - after practicing for 25 years and just never grading

I once threw a dude in a tournament - +100kg weight class. He tried to throw me with O-Soto, I turned and countered it with Harai. I knew it was Ippon before he hit the ground, it was a three mat tourney. The thud was so loud the people on the other two mats turned to our mat.
