How many people yell at their watch?

Fredrik_Coulter over 5 years ago

I finish a run. Sweating like a pig. Legs hurt. Etc.

And my watch says that my workout is "unproductive". My verbal response to that statement is unprintable.

Am I the only one who yells at their watch?

I've found yelling at inanimate objects just causes strangers to avoid me.

I think you hit the nail on the head when it pertains to me. I run, but I'm not a runner. I don't train to compete in a 5K, 10K…

Thank you! GC has been telling me to focus more on Low Aerobic activities for a while now. But despite of that I’ve kept going through Maintaining and Productive weeks.

Since last week, which was a “rest one” (4 workouts and less mileage) I’ve been getting Unproductive. I was expecting the opposite since I was having an “easy” week to give my body more time to rest and recover. Btw, I went through “Recovery” weeks as well. 2 times in the last 7/8 weeks.
