toxic exercise culture bullshit 

The heart rate app I'm using for PT exercises keeps passing judgement on me. It keeps trying to guess what kind of exercise I'm doing based on the intensity and the demographic stats and giving me a "fit/fat" score, where "fat" seems to be defined as how long my heart rate was below a particular threshold. The current daily cardio exercises I'm doing for physical therapy are specifically about keeping the bpm below a particular threshold under moderate activity.

the app is just the "Polar Beat" app that the chest strap documentation recommended. It's just a generic exercise app for basic normies who just want a computer to tell them how much "fat" they're "burning"

@aeva

That's so amusingly backward, given that you burn more fat (as opposed to sugar) at lower heart rates.
