First off, why are you even using an Apple Watch if you’re just gonna fudge the numbers? Honestly, if you’re consistently using shortcuts or, like, attaching your watch to a fan (seriously, that’s genius!), maybe rethink the whole fitness tracker thing. Just sayin’. But hey, who am I to judge your life choices?
I saw some dude at work who supposedly does 35k steps a day, and like, come ON. Nobody believes that! Unless he’s secretly a hamster on a wheel.
Now, the “how” of it all. You got a few options, some sketchier than others. That whole attaching-it-to-a-fan thing? Brilliant, but also kinda obvious if your coworkers are even remotely observant. Plus, imagine the weird tan lines!
There’s also the whole “shortcut” route. Apparently, you can find ways to add stand hours manually. Seems kinda… I don’t know… clunky? Like you’re overthinking it. If you *genuinely* forgot to wear your watch or the dang thing died (Apple Watch battery life, amirite?), then MAYBE I’d consider it. But using it to deliberately skip out on actually standing? Eh.
Honestly, if you work at a treadmill desk, then you’re already winning at the stand ring game. Those guys are basically printing stand hours. I’m super jealous, by the way. My sedentary lifestyle is *screaming* right now.
One thing that’s super annoying is when your watch *thinks* you’re standing when you’re clearly planted in your chair. Like, Apple, are you even trying? It’s like the opposite of the problem we’re trying to solve here!
