[RyouBakua]

I hate pull-ups.

Rilly? was doing standard then recently switched it up though I like them...

you have to be careful w lots of things behind the neck (pulldowns/presses)

[thehobbes]

FARRRRRK YESSSS! Ok here you go, Mammie's instructions manual:

-Hook it up to computer to charge
-Enter personal info (height, weight, how many cals/steps/etc you wanna hit daily)
-Unplug, sync to iphone with bluetooth (major pain in the ass but it's great once you have it done)
-Strap to your magnificent tricep (if it fits with the Medium band, mine cut off circulation lolol)
-Go run around like a crazy woman and turn on iphone every 5min in amazement at how many cals are burned by making deviled eggs

Srs instructions are srs, welcome to our little group of BMF addicts.


EDIT: Yeah I have the same prob w photobucket, it pisses me off more than when people write checks at the grocery store. Hug it out brahette.

[RyouBakua]

i would recommend moderate exercise while eating "normal"

this will create a more con-cret baseline without too many skews

(trying to prevent the whole "look i can eat 3500 calories because i did 3 hours of cardio")

if it fits with the Medium band, mine cut off circulation lolol

this is me too

{{waving}}} Hiya P

Great new avi . . . baby got back

everybody gots the BMF . . . slight exaggeration . . . jelly as hell may have to use BHM as excuse to gift myself.

[pharty]

BBL to chitter chatter but first...

Why doesn't this BMF think I slept? I swear I did. Is it still reading me? Trying to figure out why I get up at 3? WUT??????

[gobbles23]

Ahhh P that's so awesome! You got the pretty white one! Mines grey with a greenish button thing- not nearly as appealing to look at Hammies instructions are spot on!

What? No sleep??? What happened?? Post the chart??

I lol'd at Mammie since that's exactly what I had done!!

Yesterday put on pretty late, obviously


Today's so far


WTH?

[gobbles23]

That's weird. Did you set the times you go to bed/wake up in the settings??

[pharty]

That's weird. Did you set the times you go to bed/wake up in the settings??

Oh. No. I thought maybe it would know I was asleep because it was connected but I wasn't moving but now I realized that people don't always move around all the time I guess. They should put that in the manual ha! But I go to bed at different time do I have to always fuss with that???

Cracking myself up.

[Redfizz]

I don't undersatnd why it's saying you're burning so little. Even on my work days when I sitting in my box all day long, I burn at least 2000.

Oh, wait until you see the graph where you can tell what you were doing at that time. It's fun!

Yesterday's isn't accurate at all I put it on at, like, 6pm.

[-H-]

YAY fun!!!
I kinda want one. Will look forward to your updates about it!!

[Boomer29]

Congrats on getting the media!

You are looking awesome btw!

[gobbles23]

Just a rough estimate is good! I have it set for 10:00 asleep and 6:00 up, I don't think it totally matters if you go to bed at exactly that time or not. Sometimes on the weekends I'm not in bed until 12:00 nopt up until 10:00 and it still works fine, you just might just have to set it first so it picks up on the fact that you DO sleep

[pharty]

Now 'splain to me how I've burned 2500 cals by 2:30 yet I eat 2500 cals and still put on weight

Today was a fairly normal lifting day...maybe even a smidge light not much cardio. I did go back to the gym for a bit but only walked slowly on TM for 8 minutes then helped a friend with some stuff then did some abs.

[jjeane]

I think Hammie said it doesn't put your sleep on there unless you hook it up to the computer!
Oh fun Fun P!
Love the new avi!

Posting from iPhone w sausage thumbs, pls excuse the errors. U gotta plug it into the laptop for it to update sleep times, this drove me nuts at first. I know some say their sleep giraffe looks like a barcode do to light sleep? Mine thinks I'm dead cause it's a solid black box lulz.

Today was a fairly normal lifting day...maybe even a smidge light not much cardio. I did go back to the gym for a bit but only walked slowly on TM for 8 minutes then helped a friend with some stuff then did some abs.

It was amazing to me to see how much it claimed I burned when I was working like 14ish hr days and not even "exercising" even though at work it is physical all day. BUT if on a Sat I sleep in til 11am, don't go to the gym, and pretty much hang out on the couch watching tv all day I get all worried because it doesn't look like I'm gonna even hit 2k srs. It's weird, if you just get up and do stuff like unload the dishwasher, walk around your house changing light bulbs (don't 'lectricute yourself dere P), and rearrange your garage or some shiz you do burn a lot of cals even though it's pretty light activity. Either yours hasn't zeroed in on your true stats yet (takes a couple weeks for it to get to know how you live and will correct itself the more you wear it) or days like today are evening out with days where you don't go to the gym or move around as much. You do seem like a busy person though.

Also I notice mine does not seem to record my naps as sleep, no idea why, but I nap like 8hrs a week and it never gets added on.

Mine often thought I was napping when I was on my laptop with my feet up, lulz.

[gobbles23]

Hahaha! I was apparently sleeping while i was suntanning in the summer

I agree with hammers, P! Look at the weekly average to determine burn, not each day. A lot of my days are higher than others but average out pretty consistently around 2300-2400 these days. I think that's even a little high considering I'm sure eat less than that on a regular basis and I'm not losing weight. I think it's most accurate on people who don't move a whole lot (ie- better for finding calories burned at rest) But then again, even on lazy days I burn 2000-2100 cals, and I don't gain eating that. I still don't understand it all!

[pharty]

but you can do 10

thats good for most people

I can even do them weighted but I still hate them. Because 7-10 are still pretty hard and I want to be able to do them with ease. Srs.
I never see women doing them at all unassisted. Barely any men.
And I'm not most people

you have to be careful w lots of things behind the neck (pulldowns/presses)

that and dont roll your shoulders when you shrug

Good to know. The pulldowns are the only ones I do like that. No shrug rolling that I see.

[pharty]

You hit that control+f and search for bench huh?

Freaking exactly right there Mammz! I kept looking at it at the gym all "WTF BMF you don't think doing OHP is vigorous enough? Jerk."

Huggzz.

i would recommend moderate exercise while eating "normal"

(trying to prevent the whole "look i can eat 3500 calories because i did 3 hours of cardio")

Lulz. I did my normal lifting and eating yesterday. I did go back to the gym for a bit but only to help a friend and do some abz...didn't actually lift anything/only a few BW squats. Today is a rest day so I'm sure I'll burn about 400 cals

{{waving}}} Hiya P

Great new avi . . . baby got back
everybody gots the BMF . . . slight exaggeration . . . jelly as hell may have to use BHM as excuse to gift myself.

HI B!!!! I am tryin' to get some back...and even some junk!

BHM? BroHamMammie? Better Hump Monday?

YAY fun!!!
I kinda want one. Will look forward to your updates about it!!

It's a fun little tool to have

Congrats on getting the media!

You are looking awesome btw!

Thanks and thanks!
Though I think you mean beefy.

I think Hammie said it doesn't put your sleep on there unless you hook it up to the computer!
Oh fun Fun P!
Love the new avi!

Yeah that is STOOPID!!!!
Though also a good way to get us to take it off lol.
Thanks JJ!

Sleep Giraffe:
Non-Babka night=a little barcode-ish. Still getting used to sleeping not under the influence
Moderate-Babka=one little blip and I remember waking and checking to see if Hubz was there then right back asleep.

Ohhh! Finally got some Vigorous "sexy time" on there! Well done.

I have been saying I want to wear a HRM

It was amazing to me to see how much it claimed I burned when I was working like 14ish hr days and not even "exercising" even though at work it is physical all day.

Also I notice mine does not seem to record my naps as sleep, no idea why, but I nap like 8hrs a week and it never gets added on.

Yeah it totally missed my 20 minute nap yesterday
Interested to see how it goes over the weeks!!

Mine often thought I was napping when I was on my laptop with my feet up, lulz.

Lol! Today is a rest day so we shall see.

Hahaha! I was apparently sleeping while i was suntanning in the summer

Oh my summer cals would be fun to see! Sometimes I get to lay around at the pool and sometimes I'm chasing kids. Though I think I'm too vain to wear it once warm weather rolls around

I agree with hammers, P! Look at the weekly average to determine burn, not each day. A lot of my days are higher than others but average out pretty consistently around 2300-2400 these days.

Will it give me a weekly average or will I have to, like, do math?
Lulz



Am I caught up yet?? Man being away for any amount of time is killer

[-H-]

Will it give me a weekly average or will I have to, like, do math?

^^ if there's math, i'm out.

[jjeane]

Once a week is up you can run a report. No adding on you end!!!
And if you figure out how it determines vigorous I would love to hear it. I did that squat bench C&P circuit with it on one day, it said like 2 min vigorous exercise. But I get min for it doing farm chores?! Do not get.
