Using a phone as a bike computer does not mean you need to bu an iPhone.. Smartphone does not mean iPhone - and you could buy a smartphone for that use only. You can get quite capable phones waaaaayyy less than 800$.. Smartphones are actually designed to have their GPS on all the time.. The big issue is not this - it is battery life with screen always on, and overheating in warm sunny conditions with screen allways on. I personally think the only reason phones as bikecomputers does not catch on, is the fact that biking is what we in my country would call an "equipment sports"... The brands and expensive equipment and its specs are more or just as important than the sport itself..

I learned something watching this video. I have a Tickr HR Strap and a Garmin HR Strap. I wasn't aware that there was a problem with the Tickr only that it would stop working all the time. I thought it was my body just didn't make good contact with the sensors in the strap. I bought a Garmin strap which works better. I can now toss the Tickr in the bin knowing it is a POS. My Garmin EPIX Pro watch doesn't work so well when I'm riding the bike either.

Speaking of KZbin Music, has anybody else gotten it to actually work on the Venu 3? I'm getting a 503 error despite uninstalling, reinstalling, restarting both watch and phone. I know for a fact I'm not the only person who's had this problem. Google had been seriously dropping the ball on a lot of their products lately.

So if the TRACKR only does HR, it is probably better to compare prices with HRM Dual on Garmin side, and the official price there is $69.99. Regarding battery life... I love battery life. I had Instincts and now an Enduro 2. But still.. I think we got to the point, where most of the gadgets for most of the people have enough battery life. Selling a watch/bike computer with battery life as a main feature was possible 10 years back, but now.. Maybe if someone can reproduce "MIP battery hours" with Amoled displays . Anyhow, thanks for the episode, was fun listening to it and looking for the next one 🙂

First ride on my Zwift Ride today. I'm impressed with the ride quality and simplicity to setup and also for potential service as you mentioned. It will be interesting to see if Zwift works to make their hub and virtual shifting work with other riding platforms. If they're playing the long game, I'd say they should, but I bought the Ride knowing it (the frame specifically) may never work for non-ERG rides outside of Zwift.

My problem with Zwift is that they haven’t innovated or included basic features which should have been integrated years ago. Also, a 25% price increase is crazy. At $20/month I don’t think it’s worth it to most people.

regarding Zwift price increase: the problem is there is no option, you have the whole thing, or nothing, but some people don't care about virtual races, or erg mode, some people only want a "nice view" while training indoor. so basically price increases for stuff some people don't care about...I cancelled my subscription.

@DanielF-sw2px 19 күн бұрын

Thanx for the excellent coverage! And I guess you nailed it at around 10:45. Introducing a subjective "fudge factor" into the training load calculation renders the whole thing basically worthless from an objective standpoint. Sure, rate of perceived exertion (RPE) as a standalone measure has a lot of merit, but introducing subjectiveness in this context is simply not ideal. To my knowledge-and please correct me if I am wrong- absent elaborate lab and invasive diagnostics (such as a biopsy) or really calculating the weight you are rucking around over what amount of elevation multiplied by time, there is no way of objectifying muscle workload or damage. For instance muscle pain can be something like DOMS or be induced by muscular- skeletal imbalances. Nobody really knows. For that matter I would prefer to have two distinct metrics. Traditional training load and maybe ad RPE but not combining the two in a single output value. But each to their own. Thanx again for putting out so much interesting stuff. Cheers!

@thefitfile 19 күн бұрын

Polar actually does some muscle-related fatigue bits, but I find them pretty hit and miss, and they don't seem to meaningfully impact your total training load as much as the aerobic side does. -Ray

@MateHegyhati 19 күн бұрын

This. You saved me some time typing something like this. I completely understand the point raised by Ray and Des about muscle fatigue. I do some hikes (not so crazy ones, but still), so I can relate. And I'm happy that I can give perceived effort on my Garmin after a workout (which could be useful for a coach). But I'd never trust myself to include it as a numeric value. Even if there is a combined metric, having the "raw measurement" available in itself is preferable. Also, my experience is, that RPE is influenced by many things, not just muscle things. Being mentally fatigued or not eating / sleeping enough, heat, etc. Anothir thing: multiplying by duration is maybe also not the best (though I'm not a scientist in this field). Making things simple, I may feel a 20k run (with the same pace) twice as effortful than a 10k run. It will take me twice as long as well, so it's score is quadratic in that nature. Of course, maybe that's the "right formula". Anyhow, if Garmin starts to incorporate RPE into a numeric indicator, I hope that it will be a separate thing, not training load. and of course, Apple can still go this way if they decide to.

@aerobrain2001 19 күн бұрын

Did my first indoor bike workout on watchOS 11 yesterday and the effort rating it gave was wayyyyyy off. Obviously it’s one workout and day one of the software so absolutely not writing it off. Hopefully they improve it as if I need to manually put RPE in each time it just feels like there’s no point to the feature as it brings their “science” into question. For reference, my Garmin training load basically nailed it. But like I say, day 1, workout 1, so let’s see :-)

@davidcampos5878 19 күн бұрын

FYI, Training Load only works using the native Apple Workout on the watch. If you use Peloton or Work Outdoors or another App it doesn’t sync. Understandable. I downloaded the Developer’s Beta last night and did a Peloton ride this morning and when I didn’t see the effort screen pop up it dawned on me that, duh, it only works with Apple Fitness apps. Definitely some neat stuff happening here, though, and Apple is definitely upping the ante on its competitors

@thefitfile 19 күн бұрын

That's actually not true. Assuming a workout pushes into Apple Health (as WorkOutdoors does), you can then assign an Effort Rating within the Fitness app. Try it on the workout you did, open it up in the Fitness app, and you'll see the ability to add a Effort Rating to it. Once you've got the required number of establishing days under your belt, you'll start to see training load too.

@davidcampos5878 18 күн бұрын

@@thefitfileYou are correct. I went back in this morning and was able to assign an effort level to all my recent workouts. Also, the ability to set up the activity page the way you want and the new edit functions is a huge improvement. Really nice.

For HRV it’s really smart for them not to use it. HRV is influenced by way too many things and people tend to overthink it and take it as the one measurement that dictates if you’re ready for the day or not. There is so much literature that goes into if it’s better to take it overnight? Is it better to do it as you wake up in the morning? Because then you’re taking how you are in the moment and ready for the day. Besides that Apple uses SDNN, which nobody really uses, except maybe in the medical field and to top it off the Apple Watch takes very random readings. If you don’t turn on a-fib, you only get a handful of readings in the day which again they’re meaningless without context. Finally resting heart rate is inversely correlated with HRV so by de facto a high resting heart rate would mean a low HRV and vice versa. All the inferences about a high resting heart rate can be applied with HRV or not (being sick, injury, over training, etc.) so the vitals app application is great for the masses and for a good understanding of your body without diving too deep into complicated data.

I can think of two more benefits of the Rivet: shorter front end (bit easier to store in tight spaces than a frame + wheel) and it makes it easy to test position adjustments on the bike. If they've also thought about where the sweat will drip and keep thr price competitive this could be interesting.

Nice episode. I like this more relaxed format. If I may propose something to be discussed in future episodes is Garmin PR and product line up, such as how they interact with the community on Beta tests. That latest feature pack released came at the expense of previously working features such as custom power profiles no longer working, structured HIIT workouts with self-evaluation just corrupting the .fit file, etc. This also ties to a recurrent topic on why Garmin has so many different devices, UI differences, etc. It feels like their environment has so much potential but they end up hurting themselves with the business decision on having so many different and overlapping products in a non-standardized manner killing each other and making it difficult to maintain consistently over time.

Okay, got a WWDC hope. WatchOS10 made a some tweaks to the UI that made the Digital Crown more useful with more vertical scrolling tied to it. I’m hoping to see another step in this direction. If Apple were to use the Digital Crown and side button more like Coros does with the crown for scrolling and enter/stop-start functionality and the side button as a back/lap button it would be hard to suggest another watch for most people.
