I’ve just posted a video about it, nothing special, just 1% improvements and habits. Sunday evening workout done ✔️ And if there’s one thing I want to leave you with tonight, it’s this: you don’t need to be perfect — you just need to be consistent. 💡 At the Bizalmi Gala many of you asked me, “Feri, do you really train every morning? Are you really that disciplined?” Here’s the truth: no, I don’t work out every single day. Some weeks I don’t even manage as much as I planned. But I always come back. 💪 Because habits are what shape us. One is infinitely more than zero. And if you’ve done nothing for yourself lately, even a single workout is a massive leap. 🔥 You don’t need to make a dramatic transformation. You don’t need to become a “new person” tomorrow. Just do one thing today. One step. And tomorrow another. That 1% progress builds the life you actually want. 🌱 I’m on that path too. I’m not perfect. I’m not “finished.” But every day I do something that makes me stronger, healthier, and more resilient — and you can do the same. Start your week like this. 🔥 A fresh Monday is coming, full of opportunities. What kind of week will you have? Have a great one! 🙌 #motivation #consistency #growth #1percentbetter #discipline #fitnessjourney #keepgoing https://primal.net/e/nevent1qqs8c72a07dg7j6ys5erjh9dvdkfyhzj5lqfarjx0qnlxs2dn68444gafatau

My sister asked me this summer if I was on steroids. I said nope, just beef sun and hard work.

I recently did the whoop trial for a month. It was neat, ended up sending it back but I may get it again. Having to wear a thing wasn’t my favorite. I’ve been looking into a monthly blood test subscription at https://rythmhealth.com/ and then the day before yesterday I did a DEXA scan. The idea is the DEXA scan gives you a pre-measure of body density then you work with a personal trainer to target specific areas based on your need, then after a month a focused workout and nutrition regimen you go in for a post-measure DEXA scan to see if you made gains in the areas of need and continue to work with the trainer after that.

I used a Whoop for years while training and really liked the data it gave me, but I stopped using it because the subscription just isn’t worth it to me anymore.

Have you considered exploring the path of nei gong for health and longevity? I've heard the teaching of Damo Mitchell to be very good.

"That's awesome to hear you're focusing on your fitness journey! Trackers can be helpful, but remember, it's all about finding what works best for you. Sometimes, just listening to your body and enjoying the process can be the best guide. 🌟 #FitnessJourney"

Tried a simple Amazfit but didn't like it. My friends have garmin forerunner 955 and I'm impressed by how it can track many aspects of their health. But when I am inclined to buy one, I always think twice and don't.

Haven't tried it yet but keen to when I get time as it's open source and programmable. If you know what you're doing (not me 😉) you can write apps to track what you need. Believe it can connect to #GrapheneOS to through #gadgetbridge... https://banglejs.com/

what do you want to track?

Ah! I’ve got the apple one last year. €€€ and only does the basics :/ OraRing the same. If I would buy today I would go Garmin. You want to track sleep, HRV, resting heart rate. Other params depends on how well you manage you sleep and food. Just make sure it syncs data with apple health or google health, you will that me later ,)

If you’re optimizing health, skip the Bluetooth wearables. Most trackers sit directly on your skin and pulse non-native EMF 24/7 — not ideal for mitochondria, sleep, or hormones. A low-tech approach actually gives you cleaner signals from your own biology. Pen + paper for sleep, movement, sunlight, hydration, and mood beats another always-on device. If you want metrics, use an old-school heart-rate chest strap (Bluetooth off) or choose a device that stays in true airplane mode. Just keep in mind: it’s easy to get more connected to the data than to yourself. Remove the middleman + the noise and your body will communicate with you as long as you’re listening.

Start with Garmin. Something with HRV. DCRAINMAKER.COM for all kinds of reviews. https://market-ticker.org/akcs-www?singlepost=4186914 Second link guy (Karl Denninger) can be opinionated. Still a little Peter Schiffish

I use a Garmin Venu 2 for sleep and pulse data analysis with bluetooth turned on only to sync with app when needed. It’s turned off most of the time to avoid RF-EMF 👍🏻

Whoop changed my life. It's the coolest thing. One of my favorite thing is my age based on my fitness. I am 6 year younger. And then you get all stats on why my body is 6 year younger

Thanks for the link! First time I'm hearing of it.

Yeah, that's in part why I never got one. Thank you for the comprehensive response 🙏

If you're concerned about sharing all your data with a company, check out this project and choose a device that they support. https://gadgetbridge.org/

I'm a #GrapheneOS type of person, so Apple is not in the cards. I'm sure Apple Health and Google Health is great and works for many people, but it won't work for me I'm afraid. Appreciate the response though 🙏

Thank you!

Been using the Oura Ring for years. Love how I can wear it without looking like a geek. It looks like any other ring. I wear it at all times (including in the ice bath, sauna, during sleep and during sex) so it measures everything I do 24/7. Battery lasts a week, and charges to 100% while I shave or shower.

Requires Bluetooth to transfer the data to your phone, but Bluetooth is not needed during the day.

Interesting! What do you like most about it?

The whoop is mind blowing tech

If you try it let us know how it goes. Like I say am still keen to try if I find time 😊

I am a big fan of my Oura ring. The most important thing is that I own my data, although should the co happen to shift ownership that is always a scare. I can order blood tests through them to monitor my internals, I can turn the Bluetooth off during the day to keep myself from being zapped. I like their charts & scores. Overall I am happy with it - have used it for 5 years now. If you’re interested here’s a link, TBF if you use it I get some sort of kickback, I don’t even know what it is https://ouraring.com/raf/3f3ad9b1ad?utm_source=user&utm_medium=iac_raf&utm_type=alwayson-cvr&utm_campaign=2026RAF&utm_variant=2026_raf_oct

Good question. I'm not sure. I'm not knowledgeable about these things yet, so I don't even know what's possible. But for starters: sleep, pulse, stress?

Tai chi interests me, but I haven't explored it seriously yet. Are you practicing?

I'm not a fan of subscriptions. It's sad to see that most of these fitness trackers force you into a subscription. Exploitative model imho.

If you want the strongest and most feature‑rich fitness tracker, go for the Fitbit Charge 6.

Regular blood tests are interesting for sure, and something I'd like to explore down the line. Thanks for the link! 🫂

🫂

I have a Garmin and hate how its app won't work if I don't let it phone home all my data, which also includes GPS on the watch.

How so?

Like Jehu above posted, for in depth reviews I don't think you can beat dcrainmaker.

nostr:npub1vygzr642y6f8gxcjx6auaf2vd25lyzarpjkwx9kr4y752zy6058s8jvy4e of course.

Hmmm, if you’re tuned into your body I doubt you need any of those ‚tools‘. Most of fitness is common sense. And don’t forget to have fun 💥Those trackers (that word!!) tend to take the fun out of physical activity and alienate you even more from your body. Good luck on your journey 💪🏼

Yes, that was my approach so far.

Thank you. 🍀 nostr:nevent1qqsqzndrzqq7wzyeqksanrjm7tr8end9ehwzjx59808nhqj44rmh8wqprfmhxue69uhhq7tjv9kkjepwve5kzar2v9nzucm0d5hsygrwg6zz9hahfftnsup23q3mnv5pdz46hpj4l2ktdpfu6rhpthhwjvpsgqqqqqqsp4vs36

Oura Ring …

you're gonna want to build your own, or find someone that can.. there are open sauce for all these things, even heart monitor..

If I had infinite amounts of time, maybe.

Agree on your whole thought process, but I’m just not gonna be writing everything down everyday knowing myself… Been using the ours gen 2 and 3 because they are available 2nd hand without subscription, and seem the least intrusive to me. But, just how worried should we be about the ”non native EMF” pulsing? Any specific intel to refer to?

Kinda a bummer it was your sister and not a dime piece

Today all I have is a wahoo cycling trainer and I will do a ftp step test once a month while training and that is my base. Keeps it simple.

definitely gotta economize on the percieved psychic and material reward of success... i have this problem when i think about what things to dedicate my token budget to.

well, yeah but that data you are giving away for proprietary solutions, could be priceless. or hack/mod them not to do it if that's possible.. https://github.com/ychama/Pulse-Fitness-Device something like this^

Pen and paper

sleep tracking is hit or miss. ultimately it doesn't really do anything except give you info on something you can't really control cuz, you know, you're asleep. Going to bed on time and getting enough rest is key, but a tracker isn't needed to accomplish those goals. pulse, aka heart rate, can be good to track when you do cardio exercises but I think for someone just starting out in fitness it provides quantitative measurement when you don't necessarily need it unless you're training at a higher level. I'm not sure how you'd track stress? Here are the things that I think you should track if you're wanting to pay more attention to your health. Track what you eat, particularly your total calories and macros breakdown (protein, carbohydrates and fats) Apps like MyFitnessPal make it easy to look up the nutritional content of foods and you can log what you eat to track your macros. I'm a huge advocate for strength training. it is the most efficient, bang for your buck in terms of time. Starting Strength is a great program to start out with, so is Stronglifts 5x5. The caveat is that you need access to a gym with barbells. There are apps to track your workouts but I personally just use a little notebook. Better health comes down to eat well, sleep well and build strength. Hope that helps!

Look for a practitioners that can teach the correct wuji stance. That is the beginnings of all teaching to internal health.

This is the way

Fair. But I am a dev, so I like not to trust someone else’s algorithms to analyze my data. I am unaware of a tracker that would give all data without sending that to apple/google. You get some you loose some, unfortunately.

I've recently ditched my Apple Watch since I switched from iOS to Graphene. I don't miss anything. Rather than turning the wearing of a fitness tracker into a habit, you could work on building actual healthy habits.

#peatstr

I used to wear a Whoop. I dropped it. Partly for privacy, partly because it started running me instead of the other way around. I feel lighter without it. Turns out you can listen to your body without a dashboard telling you how to feel.

I use one from garmin, specifically for sleep monitoring. But since my daughter was born, my sleep has been a bit of a mess. Some supplements such as vitamin D (even on madeira), magnesium, and omega 3 can be helpful for overall well-being

Don’t. Just put in the work, breathe deeply, put in more work. Breathte deeply, eat right, breathe some more. U don’t need to gamify it. Just lifestyle it.

Have you ever asked yourself these questions? "What is the meaning of life?" "My life?" "Your life?" https://youtu.be/7d16CpWp-ok #asknostr

Just turn Bluetooth of if you don’t sync devices or put it in airplane mode. Tracking is still fully functional.

Notebook and pen. Try to hit one new personalbest per workout.

They're consumerist gimmicks. Just exercise every day and eat well, you'll work it all out yourself.

Satoshi’s Run Club coming soon to track runs (: iOS and Android

I recommend you hire me. I’ve been into this health stuff for almost 10 years, and I’ve worked as a personal trainer

Hi Gigi, Huawei watch fit 4 best device, or Amazon fit the cheapest

I really don’t look like I’m on steroids but I’m definitely bigger and more shredded than I used to be.

No you must buy a more expensive one so you have enough financial guilt to justify the energy spent exercising 💪

You wear it 24/7, it collects tons of data. The biological age calculations are wild, the sleep stats are super in depth, and it personalizes recommendations based on your data. The fitness data is top notch, but I feel like it shines above other products I’ve tried in terms of sleep and medical insights.

health is wealth 🫡

Don't. Eat meat, get sun and go to the fucking gym

Apple watch is great.

The number 1 thing was realising that alcohol was completely destroying my sleep. Literally if I drank 3h before bed, it would affect my sleep. Essentially a very high heart rate destroy the first portion of the night. I was already rarely drinking. Made me stop drinking after 5pm and even less. It's mindblowing to see your body metrics like that. Also I realised that sleep consistency is very important to slow aging. Weight training too. Heart rate in zone 1-3 for 3h a week. The biomarkers are very intersting. My fasting insulin could be better. I basically realised I was eating too much grapes (high in sugar). Yes you can eat too much of a certain fruit.

Your sleeping quality is one of the greatest trackers

Well said. I ditched my Apple Watch. Polar Heart rate Monitor back in the day was cool to train within a range but your advice is in tune with nature. Low to No tech can do fitness wonders. Track how you feel.

thats a follow. My-man.gif

depends what you want to track/achieve ☺️ > apple watch pro: great alrounder with good data quality and graphs con: push notifications, „smart“ etc. > polar beats band pro: measures through ECG so is by far the highest accuracy during workouts. integrates with apple health con: app sucks > oura ring pro: best sleep tracker on the market con: ring is in the way during workouts and scratches up. fitness tracking is not super accurate. > whoop (no personal experience) pro: seems to be a good alrounder if you dont like the apple watch. can be worn during workouts. great analytics con: sleep tracking is a little inferior to oura (according to benchmark studies) my setup: - wear oura 24/7 for 3-4 years now excpet when i - switch for polar beats during workouts —> i get to see amazing long-term effects in HRV, resting heart rate, sleep etc. with oura and super precise tracking of max heart rate and zones with polar beats hope this helps ☺️

haha what is that? stack sats while running?

oh you look like a geek, alright. i always spot a fellow oura wearer 😉

100% this was exactly the same for me. alcohol is so much worse than you think and unfortunately it takes a tracker to really show you what it does to your body.

How is pen and paper doing any good without something doing actual readings? How are when you think about it readings going to be as accurate as continuous ones? Who says the EMF is doing any harm whatsoever and with what proof?

Get a garmin, like the Fenix 8 or similar. You can buy it used. It's nice that you can turn a lot of shit off and use it independently of your phone while only needing to charge it every 10 days or so.

Push ups sit ups and squats.

Huawei fit 4 pro. Huge autonomy respect to Apple Watch.

Devices outputting EMF in direct contact with the skin seems like a bad idea.

Just track how you are feeling eithout those techtools. They cannot track how you feel.

Using Whoop here, but it's quite expensive and it needs quite a lot of trust of me for having my health data. But ok...it helps me to stay focused with metrics on my overall well-being and for 90% it is accurate how I feel. Listening to your own body is always the most important, but using these metrics helps me to improve my fitness levels towards achieving competive (cycling) goals.. I can see how my fitness improves / declines over a longer period of time.

Just vibe code one for yourself on top nostr!

Amazfit Active 2 is a good size and 10 days battery. Much better than ild Galaxy watch that just tried to do too much.

Get a fully emtb that's all you need to track nature fren. Best investment I made.

Just stand up and lift weights. Do it 3 to 5 times a week. I use Samsung health just for consistency, never had a smart watch or band.

I have been wearing Oura for 4 years now. Unfortunately, they went to a subscription model so that is annoying, but I still recommend them. I have worn it in the sauna, and it doesn't overheat. Fun experiment to pair it with a CGM in the sauna. I have worn it in the ocean. I have lifted weights with it. They have been solid as far as support: grandfathered me in to lifetime access, warrantied my ring when they didn't have to. They did recently go to more AI support, but I complained and someone quickly emailed me, like they used to. They are constantly fueling R&D with new features, most recently, 24/7 HR. Battery life is pretty good. They give you a notif at 20% so you don't beat the battery down. I have to charge it every ~4 days, but I have had this current one for ~2 years. BF 30% off ends today, I believe.

Garmin watch. I deeply regret moving to apple watch.

Be aware also of lifting weights - just as important, if not more important than cardio. Pavel Tsatsouline on Joe Rogan #1399 well worth a listen regarding strength training. - Sleep - Sun - Steel - Sprints - Steak - Cardio - limit sugar. Personally use a Garmin EPIX, but most trackers are great these days. Gather you’d want one though with no GPS / Data tracking, so might be best for you doing manually! I keep a monthly spreadsheet of all activity. And GOOD LUCK!

A mirror 🪞 and watch⏱️

Better not to have a tracker because of nnEMF. Reconnect with nature, see the sunrise everyday, avoid blue light at night. Exercise outside, eat one ingredient foods.

My advice is to skip the tracker. Work out 4 - 6 days a week. Set weekly and monthly goals. Never miss a day. Keep upping your intensity. Find your edge and work it. Eat great food. Your health is inside of you, not on a watch (which adds complexity).

No tracker. Listen to your body. 4-6 proper days of workout will do the job. Core strength is the base. Nutrition, sleep and sunlight are paramount. Cold exposure and fasting routine help you recover and continously detox.

Keep it up dood!

I wore a smart watch for just over a year and began to develop skin irritation. It took over 6 months for that to go away. That's how I know it was from the nnEMF and not the band. I would add the one ingredient food should be from your local farmers. Food is a geomagnetic bar code.

tracker is cargo cult (for exercise at least, I can see a better argument for sleep perhaps). makes you feel like you know what you are doing and are doing something without actually knowing or doing anything. you need to learn to feel it or you will never meaningfully improve.

Only know Garmin. I am happy with it.

You should listen to your own body rather than an electric device.

An app I’m working on that time stamps your runs with block height and stores the run data locally instead of uploading to Strava, Nike, Apple, etc.

Yes exactly. Nature doesnt make mistakes

I would refer you to Robert O Becker’s work. Also, Dr. Alexis Jazmyn Cowan

I see that you are still referring to the FDA & the WHO as if they have any credibility.

In regards to your first couple questions - You don’t always need continuous data to understand your own biology. Pen + paper works because you’re tracking the inputs that actually move the needle—sleep, sunlight, nutrition, movement, mood, stress, etc. Those patterns tell you far more than a device buzzing on your wrist. In regards to the EMF question - When Robert O. Becker went on 60 Minutes in 1977 warning that non-native EMFs might have biological effects, his Navy-funded lab was quietly defunded. The research wasn’t disproven — it was never allowed to continue. So when people say “there’s no evidence EMFs cause harm,” notice how convenient that half-truth is for industries built on nonstop wireless tech. Absence of evidence is not evidence of absence. Billions have flowed into expanding Big Tech and Big Electric — not into studying long-term biological safety. No shocker there. And honestly… we’re all on Nostr for a reason, right?

They're not all that useful. Lift weights (trackers suck at this), do some cardio, and eat well. The rest is noise.

google sheets

so accuracy is +/- 10min? 😉

Haha yes sir!

whoop is helping me a lot
