It's so warm today. After 5km then don't want to run already.

Which watch has phone app which can show pulse, distance and time on screen without screen lock?
My samsung phone can't show anything when screen lock, so I have to stop and unlock to check my reading.

Not sure about other watches but my Garmin forerunner does so

Headsup guys. Taobao pre 618 sales started.

QD Plaid 2 $799
BMAI Jingtan 3 Turbo $649

Hooting soon!
On and off, certain days, the Plaid 2 can go down to rmb699 and then return to 799 at night. This is what I observed for the last week. But it's too early to get my shoes for SCSM. foam degradation over 6 months might set in for those supercritical foam.

But that being said, my PB3 still very good, think got more than a year.

Been doing this for 3 weeks. But mine is more of half squat (no need to go so deep) and i also try to keep as little pressure on the support leg as possible (just use it as support in left right axis)

Quite good for developing strength / power for your quads and glutes. I can recommend.
(in addition to abduction and adduction exercises, solid)

I prefer single leg. Much better isolation between left and right (so wont have lazy left/right side which would be compensating). Last time when i was doing both legs, the back really too much pressure, risk of herniation.
This one is probably much safer esp for older folks.

Don't know how to tell if I am stride or cadence runner. But I asked chatgpt, and it asked me a series of questions and determine I am a cadence runner. But I am not too sure on its answer though. Both my cadence and stride length increases when I run faster.

I was looking at the meta speed sky/edge and they differentiate between stride and cadence runner then came across the review on plaid 1.5 and 2.0 so I'm just curious if really can differentiate between a stride and cadence runner..

my cadence remains almost the same (average 170 to 175) on any pace..

Then you are most likely a stride runner. But you can consider increasing your cadence to 180 first for more optimum running.

My cadence averages around 190+ per run can go above 210+ for faster run. I’m flat footed so quite scary to take large strides.

Before gst and shipping.

These are from the brands official store. So slightly higher price but I prefer buying direct.

Plaid 2 is down to 709 today!
