Forgot to post mine. Got it before breakfast. Most days I do at least a 5k run.

Mine is ridiculous. I'm not ring fixated and, while I completed all three rings most days this past month, my June Challenge wants me to do that 28 out of 30 days!

Not gonna become compulsive or controlled by the *$#!@! Watch!

Is there any way of declining a challenge and asking for a different one — say, tailored to a different metric, or to a type of activity or workout one wants to concentrate on?

Or, even a creative alternative that combines indicators or extends one's performance, say, vis-à-vis oxygen level, heart rate while walking, etc.

Regardless of one's stance on the Watch, its rings, and its Pavlovian conditioning — Apple should give us the option to reject a challenge and get one we feel is more suited to our interests, goals, needs, etc.

In fact, it'd be cool if Apple would let us create our own challenge and have the Watch monitor it for us and give encouraging tips — and suggestions of different ways of accomplishing it — during the month. Not just a prompt with a number!

Last month was laughable for me. The challenge was to complete a certain number of workouts during the month.

Well, about the third week or so, it was clear that there weren’t enough days left in the month for me to succeed — I was going to be one shy even if I did a workout every day. Yet, the Watch kept reminding me of the challenge during the next two weeks — telling me how many days I had done a workout and what the unreachable goal was! 😎

I chuckled each time and wished Apple's had programmed it more sensibly!

In any case, I ignored the prompts, did my usual, and ended up only two shy.

Absolutely up to you how you do it, but I do 3-4 workouts a day. So the laughable AW challenge last most was easy. A workout can be a walk or whatever. It doesn’t have to be an hour in the gym.

Got mine yesterday morning, along with the 5K. Did an indoor run since it was raining yesterday.

Hey everyone! Welcome back to another fantastic month. I’ve got a bit of a challenge this month - I need to double my move goal for at least two weeks! Summer’s here, and with finals and my graduation looming, plus I just started a new job at NASA L’Space , things are going to be a bit hectic. But hey, I’m up for it!

How do you create a post? I wanted to share my activity put I don’t see a way to create my own post on this thread or do I just reply to show my activity?

Just reply and post your activity challenge like everyone else. Take a screenshot in the fitness app is the easiest way.

🤯 you do track your lawnmowers as an outdoor walk? Amazing! Should do that if I do yard work!

Y’all had finals today for engineering class so this one I did it earlier in the morning

🌅 💯 core fitness + workouts LFG.

Considering that cutting my front and back yard is a little over 3 miles of walking back and forth while pushing a lawnmower, yes, I count that as a walking workout. And that isn’t including the weedwacking afterwards.

Welcome 🤗 and great 👍 to do with the workout app. What Apple Watch do you wear and what iPhone do you have?
