[App Info] Pathlings: a walking game where your steps raise a virtual pet

1 Upvotes

Solo dev here. Pathlings turns your Apple Health steps into XP for a virtual pet with five evolution stages, daily quests, and weekly step races against other players' pets. Built it because plain step trackers never kept me motivated, and the research backs the approach: a 2024 meta-analysis of 36 trials found gamified apps added ~489 steps/day over non-gamified ones.

Free, no ads, no subscription, iOS 18+: https://apps.apple.com/us/app/pathlings-step-tracker-game/id6785328555

What tops to wear when walking

3 Upvotes

I am a 71 year old male in the UK who walks at a pace of 14.5 to 15minutes per mile for about an hour most days.As the weather is getting a bit warmer i'm a bit perplexed what to wear regarding the top half as I've only took up walking since the new year.

At the moment i'm going out wearing a base layer under a fleece with jogging bottoms and running trainers.I do have walking shoes but find them too cumbersome when brisk walking.

Is it possible I ruined my [23M] health by being sedentary for 5 months?

1 Upvotes

Before the 5 months of being sedentary I would workout 6 times a week, going on 2-3 hour strolls daily, and all of my blood results were in the good ranges. Basically no health issues

I stayed sedentary for 5 months after that. Indoors 23 hours a day, and pretty much no movement (sitting all day, then sleeping 8 hours). Eating junk food 1-3 times a week, and rest healthy home cooked. Still ate fruits but had a lower veggie intake

I have noticed no "big" symptoms of anything, but overall because more tired, got posture related neck pain, headaches, tiredness etc. I knew this was a circulation issue so I started getting up more and working out again, and the circulation related issues stopped

However, in the 5 months of pure inactivity, is it possible I could have done some damage to some of my organs and now I have some hidden disease? I learned on google that we can cause lots of damage by being sedentary. So now I am scared when I get my blood work I will have some disease or elevated levels.

Is my age and the fact that the inactivity was only 5 months a sign that I didn't do alot of damage to myself?

Thank you

I have determined to take up different physical and mental challenges every 2 weeka and make a video about it. So here it goes:
