The Perfect Light Setup for Aero Bars?
Переглядів 4598 місяців тому
Now that it's dark early in the mornings when I like to do my riding, I had to find a solution that would allow me to clearly see and be seen whilst on the roads, but with the added complication of clip-on aero bars and no space on my handlebars.

How to Run on Zwift with JUST a Garmin Watch!

How to Run on Zwift with JUST a Garmin Watch!
I’m 5’5 205 and I train like a bodybuilder. I have been running for the last 3 months. I have a 1.5 mile test coming up and I need help/ advice
Incredible!
Thanks bud. 1st Du in under 2 weeks now 🫨Bonesaw is ready!!
The company seems to have gone under. Do you know any other that sells an aero mount which also allows for a gopro mount?
YOU ARE A LEGEND
Thanks so much!!!
Does this work with Coros watch?
Just one point. It is enough just to open virtual run on the Garmin watch and start running. Once you start running on the treadmill your avatar will start too. No need to start on the watch.
Stryd is always perfect pace
Just purchased the reebok jet 300. Do i need a bluetooth usb dongle to connect zwift to this treadmill?
I calibrate my synapses 2.0 with a wind speed of 4 kmph and nature bound eye glasses, specially made for water runoffs and ear pieces to pick up soundscapes am- works really well!
Thanks for the tips! Very helpful! Heading into my first duathlon in a month!
i don't normally like to run on it but to walk n i feel my walking speed is at a good pace but the avatar is slow as heck
I would love a breakdown video of the pros and cons of using TrainerRoad for duathlon training! Also maybe also adding weightlifting
Are you following an adaptive training plan? If so, from who?
Ive just started using a noble pro smart treadmill and its really accurate. The speed on the treadmill is always exactly the same as the app. The only gripe I have is I think it seems a little unfair that the cyclists get auto incline options on the app and the runners dont. I would pay for this option if it was made available just as they pay. The tech is there.. why don't they do it? Safety?
Congratulations, brilliant recap. Ill be on the beach this year for my first attempt at a full distance IM. Well done!!.
Thanks Stephen, best of luck!
Lets go Chris!
great - this is the solution for all my issues with treadmill and Zwift. Works great for me with my Fenix 6X
🔥

Great video. I have a Zwift Runn speed sensor on mine (this exact treadmill) for this which works very accurately for speed. It even (somehow) detects cadence as well as speed and can be synchronized with your treadmill.
Brilliant treadmill had mine for years and the fact that you can easily get genuine replacement parts from Reebok because they have been making the same treadmill for years is an enormous plus. Mine has already been through a belt, a motor and a rear roller - all bought direct from Reebok.
Feels like I'm the only person who has to struggle to even brush his teeth... Can't think of a less pleasant thing to do
Didn’t try at all yet, but what if you were the watch on your leg? Should it be more accurate and work basically as running sensor?
No. These pods are with accelerometers, no GPS.
And the wrist based speed sensors on some watches are not that good and of course not suitable for the ankle.
I'm using a Domyos 100e (Decathlon) smart treadmill, which pairs to Zwift on my Android phone via bluetooth. I also utilise a Wahoo Tickr heart strap and the Zwift runpod for cadence. Most of the time they all play nicely together and the speed on the treadmill matches the data on Zwift.
Thanks for the information. I couldn't find any good information that i could understand. I thought that I had to upload an app in the Connect Iq to run with swift. Greetings since Chile. 🎉
I feel ya on the full training. Im with you. No full next year. Good luck with your goals.
Cheers Stu!
Sounds good to me mate! Sad news about Thoresby though :(
Is it not happening now? I haven't see anything about it.
@@ChrisColwillYT it’s cancelled mate :(
Ah gutted! Is there a particular reason why?
@@ChrisColwillYT lack of entries :(
I was planning on entering a bit nearer the time as it's still a way away, but I guess they need an idea on numbers quite far in advance. Gutted to hear that 😔
Congratulations!! Great recap.
Thank you 👍🏻
well done 🎉
@@markroe4952 Thanks Mark
I'm 6'3 220lbs, and i mainly do trail runs in the desert southwest of the US. I *love* my Speedgoat 5s.
I have enjoyed the few runs I've done in mine.
JTX (in the UK), offered me a console upgrade for my already-excellent Sprint 7, making it a Sprint 7 Smart. I think it cost me £120: A small price to pay for such a massive upgrade. Amazing customer service! Before that, I was relying on a Zwift foot pod, or my Galaxy Gear S3 watch 🙄. I still use the watch for heart rate and pace, but having Zwift directly linked to the treadmill is a total game changer.
Really enjoyed the livestream video it makes it much more interesting. Thanks for your knowledge and expertise!
Glad you found it helpful Terry!
Thanks for th3 vid thinking if I should buy or not.
Great tips
I use my garmin hrm pro plus and is very accurate and I use it outdoors of course
No more virtual run? I can't find it on the IQ store
It’s not in the store, it’s already on the watch, you just need to add it to the list
Great hack/advice - and even better now that Zwift run is free - cheers Chris
You're welcome Michael - glad you found it helpful.
Thanks for great advices and getting straight to the point.
Thanks a lot!
Virtual run is a cool feature from Garmin to start running on Zwift but it’s so inaccurate especially on intervals that I decided to get a Zwift pod. It’s relatively affordable and way more accurate that the virtual run
