MY 2009 UN:

Nicely Done! Congrats!

Send it across the pond and I'll pour the missing LOVE for you! Cheers, Mate!

SPeechless...as always coming from the Master!

Holy phuck! That's one sambitch awsome 203 you got there!

Thanks Guys! @vlydog....training for it now, Bud! Departing March next year, will go Tibet side this time via Northface. Only thing that worries me is that I might be altitude sensitive now.....over 18000ft. I'll find out when I get there. Cheers folks.

Pow! Kaboom! Damn, I can't believe I lasted this long . It's been good, though. I learned a lot.....and not just about watches. Made some good friends....and maybe a few Frienemies! Overall, it was worth every minute of it. Question, though????? WHO THE HELL CHANGE MY SCREEN NAME FROM HIKEUSA TO "HIKER01"???? Peace out and God Bless! Thanks for a good ride all these years!

Musta Pare.....and welcome to the Forum! You came to the right place, and we have a few Pinoys here, actually. Feel free to PM me if you need some info.

Add to that the beauty of Nature + Fresh Air......best workout ever!

Got me a Polar Ft7 and now on my 4th week of HIIT. Never felt better. Here's my routine 3x a week: 5 min warm up 20 min 40/20 sec HIIT to between 85-90 Max HR (mine is 162 according to the standards) 3 diff exercises 2 min break 20 min 40/20 sec HIIT (another 3 different exercises) all exercises hit upper/lower body 5 min cool down thats it. I lift heavy 2x/week - upper/lower body - walk 4 miles post (can't run anymore) also walk 4-5 miles on 2 days of no HIIT and Lift So far so good!

If this model is not water resistant at least for swimming, then it's a major Phuck up....for me at least. I just hate it when the Model says "Diver" and then you have to take it off when you take a shower koz it's not water resistant....duh! If it's a "Diver", then I should at least swim with it.....this particular model looks awesome and the maker and dealer spent so much time and effort trying to make it as close to the GEN as possible, and market it as "1 on 1", but in the process forgot the real purpose of the watch, that just doesn't make sense to me. I really want to buy this model, but no water resistance is a major deal breaker for me!

That sucks! Don't they advertise it as "Swiss Quality AR and Lume"?

Anyone into HIIT? Any recommendations? A trainer suggested me doing it to increase my chances of making it to Mt. Everest next year (as you may all know, I was halfway last year). Also what's the best heart rate monitor for under a $100 bucks! Help help~! Thanks guys!

You can't be serious???? Have you seen the number of parts a 7750 have??? This is a very complicated movement.....it's tough, but you can't screw around with it if you don't know what you're doing. Believe me, I'm like you when I started, but after a few phucked up movements (now they're good for parts) I give up! Let the likes of MD2020 and some on this board do their thing and you stay with a head full of hair!

Is this a tease or what??? Here's one:

BTW: If on a budget, instead of Macro Lens, try extension tubes!

You should be able to find some used DSLR here from time to time or google could help. The Nikon early D series would be a good start (I'm a Nikon user). Canon also have some excellent models. CNET published this last July, read thru it and see if any interest you: http://reviews.cnet.com/best-entry-level-dslr-cameras Good luck and hoping to see some great shots from you, soon!

DAmn.......you just convince me to get one! Thanks for the post......great pix!

He always sees Heaven.....that's why he's doing all this crap! Lol! Great Job Mate, I know you always have it in you! Well done!

Red and yellow on rubber would be nice!

He's buried!!! Poor Guy! I warned him when he started....don't get popular! But he didn't listen! LOL!

Nice....wonder how it really looks on the wrist??? But I'm tempted!
