Activities – 2020 Hindsight

Resuming Weights

I managed a reasonable night’s sleep, although I’m a bit over this pattern of a restless hour and a half, get up for half an hour, and then settle in for two good blocks of around 2 to 2 1/2 hours each. I feel rested, but it would be good to hit the sack andContinue reading “Resuming Weights”

In preparing for the resumption of keto and calorie restriction come the start of the new year, I did some research into the calculation of calorie burning, taking into account things like weight, steps and so on, to work out a base calorie usage. It all proved to be a bit of a rabbit hole,Continue reading “Garmin Connect – Calorie Calcs”
