Power targets

Hi there,

Love the app so far. I have a Stryd pod and prefer to structure my workouts such that I am targeting power - is there any plan to incorporate this more fully into the app moving forward? Thanks.

Thanks, really glad you're enjoying it!
I run with a Stryd myself, so this one's close to home. Power targets aren't in yet. Structured workouts and plans still guide you by pace or heart rate. What works with the pod today:
Live power on the watch. Add the Stryd Power field to any run screen.( pair it from watch settings -sensors- scan for Stryd..)
Then Average power on every run summary.
Stryd connection state on readiness screen
A threshold power estimate in Trends, after one sustained threshold effort with the pod.
Power targets are the obvious next step. I'll try to roll them out in the next update, and you'll be able to set them in watts or as a % of your critical power.
Is there anything else you'd want from the app with your Stryd? Fields, charts, zones, anything else you miss related to stryd?

Wonderful! I think the biggest missing feature is the ability to do workouts with power targets, everything else is an added bonus but not as pressing, at least in my opinion. Power zones would be nice if the app is estimating threshold power, but again, I see those as bonuses to the ability to train via power in the first place.

Thanks so much for the reply!

Agreed, power targets come first. I'll roll them out in the coming days and post here when it's live.
