    Can you keep it in your pocket?
    I imagine it still counts everything but maybe not heart rate (depending where you keep it in your pocket lol).

    Haven’t tried that. Google might work better in that scenario. I just know I love mine. Has different setting for cardio, bike, weightlifting, etc.

    What does it track for weightlifting?

    If I do a run on a TM, can I manually input all the info?

    I think it changes the sensitivity and monitoring stuff per exercise. You can change stuff manually and it is supposed to work on a treadmill but it always shows lower calories than the treadmill itself which may mean its more accurate. Or less. Not super sure. Haven’t looked into all that stuff as I mainly run run and it uses GPS to track you and all that.

    I’ve done very well not tracking all my stuff but it helps to know where you are so you can set better goals and know where to improve.

    I’m going to be on the lookout for a sale on them. Maybe black friday would be a good time for one.

    Maybe if I sell the Tacoma this year I’ll get one sooner:anonymous:

    Been a bit absent... Work.. life... ugh.

    Update from the weekend. Was a tough show, we didn't place like we wanted, but once we showed up we figured that would be the case. Our last few days of manipulation her body just did not take to it. She was a little out of conditioning and so she placed lower.

    Pre show bathroom

    She ended up 5th in the open. Conditioning just wasn't there. We prepped for so long for her last show and then this show her body was exhausted.
