FenlandRunner Feb 2021 10:44am, 3 Feb 2021 5,830 posts	0 FenlandRunner With running and cycling it is easy to log time? But with S&C (Strength and Conditioning) to you log active time (which is relatively small) or time from start of the activity until the end including rest between reps?
Velociraptor Feb 2021 10:50am, 3 Feb 2021 51,335 posts	0 Velociraptor I log total time for the activity including the rests between reps, though I have a nominal time for my typical session so that if I spend a lot of time between reps messing around on the internet or doing my knitting it doesn't look as if I've done an unusually demanding session.

Sharkie Feb 2021 11:03am, 3 Feb 2021 17,252 posts	0 Sharkie I log total time too. In fact if I only logged the effort sections of most of my training it would read something like 'Running - Track session - 9 minutes.' Not much cop! I DO work quite hard - honest.
HappyG(rrr) Feb 2021 1:04pm, 3 Feb 2021 37,510 posts	0 HappyG(rrr) Total including rests. But then in running I don't press pause if I stop for a chat either. Actually, unless you wanted to split out a specific section of a run (which you can do later anyway, with new Fetch split feature!) I don't even know why someone would pause in a run. If you go into the gym, do stuff, then leave, start at the start and finish at the finish?! G

Derby Tup Feb 2021 1:14pm, 3 Feb 2021 48,819 posts	0 Derby Tup I log total time but hate this type of stuff so don’t break off for knitting breaks etc but thrash on. Typical session 9 or 10 minutes
HappyG(rrr) Feb 2021 1:16pm, 3 Feb 2021 37,513 posts	0 HappyG(rrr) I tend to do an hour. If I'm going to get sweaty and have to change might as well make it a reasonable duration. Sometimes only 45 mins. One of the things I like about going to gym is once I'm there I sometimes do 90 mins because I'm there anyway.

Nellers Feb 2021 2:42pm, 4 Feb 2021 38,211 posts	0 Nellers Yep, total time for the activity including any rests. For almost all of it now I log it using my watch as "other" (or using a specific Cross-training app) so I get (semi-accurate) HR data as well as time logged.
