The only real way to measure all your internal metrics is to have a full body DEXA scan, which aint cheap!

I have a Whoop band. Been an absolute game changer for me.

Measures all your vitals and more.

I used Welltory for a while earlier this year and found it to be weirdly inaccurate in comparison to how I was actually feeling. 100% health even when I felt rubbish and highly stressed when I felt fine.

It’s been brilliant for me. I find it really accurate and it can even detect what activity I’m doing. It had made me realise how important sleep is in my life!

I’m currently rocking the 4.0 Whoop Peak and paid £229 for the year.

Yes, watch (analogue) on the left wrist and this in the right.

I’m about to upgrade to the 5.0 after almost 12 months as it only needs charging once per fortnight (compared to every 5 days on the 4.0).

I use a garmin venu sq2 and garmin connect along with lose it app. I need to get properly back at the running and logging my meals as the difference is huge mentally when you start focusing on trying to stay healthier.

Just starting my build up to May’s Hackney Half Marathon. Twice weekly 5k runner, and do the occasional 10k, but the jump to 13 miles feels pretty daunting to say the least (already having a few “what the hell am I thinking?” moments).

It is, but just do it run by run and you’ll be fine. I do a half (marathon) every year and it always feels daunting until it’s not. Albeit there will be the occasional pain/boredom threshold to pass.

Has anyone tried mullein for lung health etc  
I’m asthmatic so curious as to whether anyone has tried it as an add on to conventional medicines?

Me too, life long. Thanks, I’ve never heard of that so after reading your post I did a quick Google Scholar search on its effectiveness and found a recent scientific review - conclusion below (asthma was mentioned earlier in paper). Based on that, I might get some and try it, will report back.

Has really good anti inflammatory properties from what I’ve read especially in liquid form- worth a punt maybe

On the subject of garmin tracking. This is the last few days after I picked up Flu A, absolutely horrendous and will floor you. I had to go to a&e on fr evening because of my breathing and asthma. Scary stuff as my hands went numb from lack of oxygen.

I’ve been informed that vitamins are a substitute for a healthy and active lifestyle so have doubled up on my intake and fucked exercise right off

Started to wind down the ‘exercise craze’ with 5k to couch- aim being to be sat on the sofa doing nothing by Christmas.

Hope this helps others

Yeah the 420 thread got a bit racey with people talking about buying things and thats maybe not a good look for the site : /

I tried to make it a private thread (I thought I had) for those that had already posted but maybe I made the whole thing private…

Moderation is not my forte…
