    My question.

    Do you burn more calories playing a high energy 4 set night or moving the gear in and out?

    Disclaimer: variable could include how many pieces you lug around.

    My fitbit can get up to 10k steps in a jam.

    The answer is it depends though. Are you sweating? I hit the cardio zone playing death metal and punk. I used to be able to ring out my shirt when my technique was bad. These days I don't sweat as much so I don't think I'm burning as much.

    This is not aimed at the people with glandular problems just so we're clear.

    To the people that are overweight. If you are 5'10" and weigh 275lbs, somewhere back there you had to pass a mirror coming out of a shower and wondered "when did my ass start to look like an Alpine ski slope"? That should have happened when 1 hit (at 5'10") around 175-180lbs. That should be when 1 stays away from anything to do with chocolate or cheesecake,

    Scotty, at your size I wouldn't sweat the weight part.

    Oh i'm 6'0 and about 185 post pandemic.. hahaha I'm not overweight, could loose maybe 5-10 lbs to be lean again :P

    I do like to get my heart rate up though and work out a fair bit so watching my fitbit for things was pretty cool when I started wearing it while playing.

    I do find it interesting how live my heart rate is much higher mostly due to excitement.

    There you go people, Jackie has found a surefire way to lose weight.

    A haircut. You can sit, read a magazine and lose some weight all at the same time.

    Brilliant idea Jackie, absolutely brilliant.

    Tom, if that's a pic of you, 1/4 ounce isn't going to make much difference.
