those step-tracking apps are such a scam, lmao

I already told you. Also to that obese indian retard who keeps thinking 28k steps a day is plausible.

yeah, i had that on my mind when posting this

would be fine if you could counteract the inflation by setting it to minimum sensitivity, but then it doesn't even activate most of the time, even during continuous, uninterrupted fast walks outside

need to find a better metric for my physical activity instead of obsessing over this like a retard

Smartwatches have a more accurate way of counting activity.

They have a better GPS system and work together with heart rate, so that if your heart rate is at a relaxation level, e.g. you are on a bus, the motion doesn't get counted as activity.

I got a smartwatch off of a 150 euro gift voucher for recycling a bunch of old electric devices that my parents had. It's still not fully accurate but closer to a real figure, if you care enough to track activity/calories (I don't).

yeah, i believe that's true. my mom bought one recently. but focusing on this in general is bs, i'm just trying to avoid putting meaningful effort into exercising

what's the point of even amassing legit 12-15k steps daily when your heart rate barely elevates during those walks? this is probably good for 68 yo people, but it's pointless for people younger than 40 unless they are legit at 37% or so bf

I believe it is valuable for the conditioning of your tendons, bones and muscle. Not necessarily 12k steps, but I'd argue doing 30-60 min a day is necessary.
