I do the same thing to fix the heart rate monitor. After reading about it, I found it was an issue with the tech used to detect it. There is a better way but it consumes a lot more energy, so we would be recharging the thing more often (my wife has to charge her iWatch every night, lol).
The PAI seems to be measuring 100 for average people, but not for the PAI obsessed, too bad there wasn't an extreme mode, or better yet allow people to set PAI targets.
I collect most of mine on a spinning bike. I can't even collect it well from cycling because there aren't enough hills in my area and nowhere I can safely go fast enough to get the kind of resistance I need to get my heart rate over 150.
Unfortunately, I hate jogging, but I may have to do it. Alternatively, I could just walk up and down the stairs in my apartment, or better yet find a nice hill to climb up and down. It's just too hot to do outside stuff in summer. And I'm moving somewhere flat for a few weeks (hopefully I won't lose track).
My deep sleep is low, but I expect it is seasonal. It's 100% humidity here and like 27C at night. I've been sleeping with the AC on in my bedroom since late May and have a fan, too (it's definitely worth the 10$ or so added to the bill each month). My bed is very comfortable, but I don't think my pillow is the best.
I find this watch can go over a week without charge, happy with that.
Same! It is tough on the road unless you meet a lot of hills.
I like the GPS and stats that come with jogging outside but my ankles don't like it and much prefer the cushion of a treadmill. Playing an active sport seems to work really well - heart-rate spikes and the cool down period seem easier/more fun than grinding out a consistent 150 bpm. Saying that, I don't have many options for sports at present and most of my PAI is coming from the elliptical trainer.
27c, yeah that doesn't sounds like a comfortable sleeping temperature, hopefully your deep sleep will improve when things cool off a little.
I've been doing 30-minute sessions on the bike spiking it to 175 and back down to 140. I find it is better than grinding out a high plateau. I think the technical term is HIIT. It's like doing sprints.
The GPS is great, especially when doing random courses. I do have a nice running track nearby (GPS is pointless for a 400m oval, unless I forget how many laps I did). Maybe I'll hit it up in the fall a few times. There are lots of mountains near me and I find the ones that are about 500m up are a decent workout. Again, fall.
