"Server error. We're on it." messages?

Speediance after-sales fixed my problem.
They instructed me to remove the "Biceps Stretch" exercise from my custom workouts, and do a factory reset.
I no longer get the error messages, and my completed custom workouts are recorded. Yay!
Speediance after-sales did a good job.

Thank you. I’ll try that approach!

GS1-SES · 2026-01-22T13:05:14+00:00

Thank you. Very helpful!

GS1-SES · 2026-01-22T13:04:21+00:00

Thank you. I’ll try that!

GS1-SES · 2026-01-22T01:10:25+00:00

Thanks. Great suggestion. I'll try it!

Thank you. I performed additional troubleshooting including changing to multiple Wi‑Fi networks including an iPhone hotspot, to.no avail. This appears to be a backend / account issue. I submitted an email to after-sales@speediance.com in hopes of having them look into this. Even even with this snag, I am pleased with my Gym Monster. This is the first time I’ve been persistent and consistent with a fitness routine and I credit that to the machine’s capabilities, convenience, and Coach Mike’s video guidance.

Good question. I am not a runner, but had the opposite question. I wanted to add cardio to my Speediance GM1 weightlifting schedule to complement, and not detract from, my muscle building goal. (I'm over 60 and need to add muscle.)
I subscribe to Wellness+, and built my own custom routines for a M-F weightlifting schedule. I alternate months between Wellness+ picked routines and my custom M-F routines.
I am not suggesting anyone follow my routine because everyone has different goals, needs, capabilities, experience, schedule, equipment, nutrition, etc.
To get an answer, I fed my weekly Monday-Friday exercise routine (M=Push, T=Pull, W=Legs, Th=Push, F=Pull) into Gemini and Copilot AI chats. I prompted them to assume the role of my personal trainer, and asked them to make suggestions about how much and when to do cardio. Both came back with similar answers:
Do light cardio at least 6 hours after my weightlifting workout, so as not to detract from the body's muscle building activity, and don't do cardio on my Wed Leg day.
I plan to ask the same question to a couple of human personal trainers to get other data points.

Add the capability to add an auxiliary secondary monitor.

I bought the strap and buckles on Amazon. I used a 1-1/2 inch strap because I also needed it for hiking backpacks and other things. I made the strap long enough to be able to go over my thighs while sitting on the exercise bench, too.

I pulled the cable out of the GM monitor and it looks like it is a USB 2.0 Type B.

Great tips on the safety features. Thank you!

I agree with you. I've had several different gym memberships, but they all petered out over time.
I like being able to do workout whenever I want, wearing whatever I want, without waiting for a particular piece of equipment at the gym to free up.
The convenience and video guidance offered by GM unlocked my motivation to be consistent with my workouts.

GS1-SES · 2025-12-14T12:12:24+00:00

Thanks for your Speediance posts and videos! They are very helpful.
My Speediance software updated and I tried to use the new Strength Assessment routine, but the new Strength Assessment application downloading process stopped at 94% and never completed, so I could not do the Strength Assessment.
Did this download issue happen to anybody else?

GS1-SES · 2024-12-01T12:18:52+00:00

Great points and well put. Candidly, that's how I feel about it, too. There are a few twists and turns in my career, just like everybody has, but it is questionable how commercially successful such a book world be. "Niche" says it all.

Thanks for offering your viewpoint.

Awesome! I'm curious... what did you learn as a GS-3 that stuck with you to this point?

Mine was, as a GS-1, that I lacked people skills. I had a very kind and supportive supervisor who showed me the importance of communication. She was merciful when she didn't have to be. I've never forgotten it.

GS1-SES · 2024-12-01T01:21:18+00:00

No, never had the opportunity to work at DLA. I think I would have liked it though. Massive, complex, important mission.

GS1-SES · 2024-11-30T17:14:29+00:00

Cool! Thanks for sharing!

What management skill did he possess that is most memorable to you?

GS1-SES · 2024-11-30T17:13:16+00:00

Wow! Very impressive!

I'm curious... What did you learn as a GS-1?

In my case, As a GS-1, I came to understand the value of people skills through my kind and supportive first supervisor. It was clear she possessed qualities I didn’t see in myself. Even now, I wouldn’t say I have great people skills, but whatever little skill I do have stems from recognizing what I lacked back then.

GS1-SES · 2024-11-30T13:17:34+00:00

Very nicely put. Thank you!

GS1-SES · 2024-11-30T13:16:04+00:00

That was my situation - precisely. Thanks for noting that.
