I went to the gym today, aiming for a long session of low-intensity cardio on a mix of machines. However, I forgot my water bottle. I spent only 30 minutes, with 15 minutes on the rower and 15 minutes on the recumbent bike. After that, I became uncomfortable without water and returned home.

Rowing was a breeze after one of the trainers explained to me that to mimic rowing on water, I should set the resistance to 4. In the past, I always set the resistance to 10 (max). He said that this would be like rowing upstream on a river.

At home, I engaged in laborious food prep and cooking and cleaning while wearing the 12-lb vest. Oura thinks this is all exercise (walking) and tells me that I spent 1 hr 24 minutes being active today. So it counts those minutes of kitchen activities as a workout. I do not know whether I should believe it.

Did Kegels twice.
