      Is iFit doable for people who can’t run/job due to leg injuries? I have compartment syndrome in both legs, and can’t run. Can I still participate in challenges and events if I have to walk?

  • @danrodgers8081
    @danrodgers8081 2 роки тому +21

    If you won't allow 3rd party software installed on the tablets that we own, then you should allow users to create their own workouts without paying for a subscription. Running complicated workouts (HIIT, fartlek, surges) is DANGEROUS in manual mode and literally requires users to jump off the deck and onto the rails so we can manually change the speed and then jump back on to a running belt. Not having a free custom function is appalling.

    I love the iFIT app, I’ve had it for 6 weeks now, but I’m finding with some of the trainers, when they talk through an entire exercise session, it’s quite painful listening to them panting and gasping their words out while trying to be inspiring and motivational 🤭 sometimes I mute the trainer and just listen to the music while I train, without the struggling panting/ gasping narrative.

    • @audiotinker

    So when your machine is connected to iFit... when you're on a trail or using google maps does it mean your screen journey only moves forward based on the effort you're using on your bike or treadmill? Like if I stop pedaling does the video stop like it's real life??

  • @clintonmumbower4461

    I can’t find this answer anywhere hopefully someone here can help. How do you properly end a run when running with a trainer on ifit? I was testing it and the incline was stuck at like 4. I started a manual run and it read 0 even though it was still inclined. I ended up having to calibrate the treadmill to reset. Surely this doesn’t happen every time.

      A BIG NO! iFit isn't compatible with any 3rd party apps and they don't let you install anything on YOUR tablet. You also can't create your own workouts unless you pay for a subscription. Imagine running intervals and trying to hit multiple buttons all while running fast! The machine's manual mode is "start, stop" only and is dangerous to use for anything other than a casual run. That is unless you think jumping onto the rails so you can then change the speed in mid-workout, which is required to customize a fartlek or HIIT workout.

      There is no "other company." Sure you can get a cheap non integrated equipment, but you get cheap equipment. Every... I mean EVERY good piece of equipment from atom, pro-form, Bowflex, etc uses this same subscription system. There is another option: most of the exercise equipment that is connected with iFit offer FREE equipment. You agree to pay for an iFit family plan for 3 or 4 years, and they throw in the equipment for free. That's the only way I can think of "winning" in this scenario. I'm not happy with it either, but there's really no way around this that I can see, unless you get the no-name brands for like $300 which may or may not fall apart while using it haha.
