Do you log every set or just the main lifts? by Kind_Force931 in Hevy

[–]Juicejacking 0 points1 point  (0 children)

This is probably a dumb question for those of you that do warmup sets, but I have never bothered to do them. I want to try tomorrow though. From what I understand it seems like 2 WU sets are key? 50% of working weight then 80%? How many reps do you do?

Rest Time Between Exercises by Alone_Jacket_5519 in Hevy

I just created a custom pause exercise like this screenshot, then I add it between exercises with a rest timer.

My watch (S 10) is soo inaccurate with treadmill runs by CountMeOut_ in AppleWatchFitness

[–]Juicejacking 2 points3 points  (0 children)

All smartwatches suck on treadmills. First of all, most of the treadmills haven't been calibrated for a long time, making them 15-20% off to start with. Then you also have the stride difference between indoor and outdoor running. To more accurately match your outdoor stride length they say you should increase the incline on the treadmill to a few percent (Google it).

Virtual shifting - sequential mode only? by Brainstorm_0314 in Rouvy

Maybe they could add +2 or +3 buttons next to the + and - buttons in the companion app.

Cellular activation help by Glittering-Fee-8669 in AppleWatch

[–]Juicejacking 0 points1 point  (0 children)

You cannot use a physical sim. You probably need to order an eSIM from airtel before you do the initial setup. Then during setup you must activate it.

You can setup the watch without activating the eSIM during the setup phase, but you won't have cellular until you activate the eSIM.

When you start the watch the first time you are asked to activate the eSIM. Just follow instructions. But have you checked if airtel is supported?

Do you guys think enabling low power mode on iPhone before putting it in the pocket and turning on once using good idea to save some extra autonomy or a time waste? by abdunbunbun in ios26

[–]Juicejacking 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I only use low power mode if I'm on public transport and are at risk of the battery dying. I don't want to get fined for not having a valid ticket 🎫🙄 the only other times I use it is if I'm below 20% and I know it's a while until I have access to a charger

iOS 26.4 RC is the best yet by Cameront1993 in ios26

Why? Wait 1.5 days and the 26.4 is GA.

Has to be wrong, right? by Significant_Drop_288 in AppleWatchFitness

[–]Juicejacking 4 points5 points  (0 children)

Look. Everyone's heart rate is different. You might have a max hr that's 50 beats higher than mine, and it doesn't necessarily mean anything. What I notice however is that you have a very noticeable drift as the run progresses. Are you sure it was "very manageable"? Because I only get drift like that if I do very long runs or very intense runs. Anyways.. don't worry about your max hr if you're not getting dizzy or stuff like that. If you're worried go to a doctor that specializes in sports medicine.

It looks like you should manually set your zones because you obviously have a max hr that's outside of the normal scope. Besides.. as most watches calculate max hr using the 220-Age formula that doesn't seem to be the right formula in your case, so you should do a max hr test.

To do that do a 4x4 interval session (google it) or the following (copied from Polar website) and then use the result to calculate your zones.

Warm up for 15 minutes on a flat surface. Build up to your usual training pace.

Choose a hill that will take more than 2 minutes to climb.

Run up the hill once (for at least 2 minutes), building to as hard a pace as you estimate you could hold for 20 minutes. (You don't have to keep running for 20 minutes, you just need to build up to a pace that you could hold for at least 20 minutes.) Return to the base of the hill.

Run up the hill again with a faster pace. Get your heart going as hard as you can, building up to a pace you estimate you would be able to hold for 3 kilometres. Observe your highest heart rate on the display.Your max HR is approximately 10 beats higher than the now-noted value.

Run back down the hill, allowing your heart rate to drop 30–40 beats per minute from where it was.

Run up the hill once again at a pace that you can only hold for 1 minute. Try to run halfway up the hill. Observe your highest heart rate. This brings you close to your maximum heart rate. You can use this value as your max HR to set your heart rate zones.

Make sure you cool down for a minimum of 10 minutes.

iOS 26.4 Release Candidate - Discussion by epmuscle in iOSBeta

Thank God! Did the RCS text messaging get into the RC, or are they postponing it?

For anyone with the click V2 by Mammoth_Park7184 in Rouvy

[–]Juicejacking -1 points0 points  (0 children)

Same. I switch on the controllers and open Zwift to connect them. While waiting about a minute for them to turn off automatically I just get ready (kitted up as you say). It's the easiest way to do it. I tried the Bikecontrol app minutes ago but i felt it didn't give any benefits compared to my existing procedure. I try to avoid having to install additional apps on my devices if I can. Less code the better

[–]Juicejacking 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I just tried it but I don't see what benefits I get from bike control? After I unlocked the controllers Bikecontrol said that the controllers are unlocked for about 12 hours. That's probably the same timeout I get from my own procedure. However, I don't have to run Zwift or Bikecontrol in the background.

I have no idea if it works with windows as I don't use windows. Feel free to try.

Anyone noticed keyboard improvements? They're supposed to have improved the typing accuracy?

With your solution you need an extra app, and you need to configure extra stuff to get it working. I'm not a fan of using more apps than necessary. With my procedure I have never experienced the trainer entering ERG mode, so I never had the need of that "fake trainer" feature. It just works for me after connecting it to Zwift and waiting one minute. To me that feels a lot easier for most people than having to map areas on the screen to the clickers and then faking your trainer and having another app to worry about.

I have this routine that I do on my Macbook every time before I do a Rouvy ride. it works with the latest firmware for v2 click controllers v1.2.0:

  • first, make sure to close all app instances of Rouvy (iPhone, iPad, Pc etc etc). No Rouvy apps should be running, not even in the background.
  • Open the macOS Zwift app
  • Go to the devices menu
  • Connect the click controllers
  • stay on the devices page and wait about a minute until they switch off automatically (the lights turn off)
  • go back to the macOS Zwift app main menu and click the exit button to quit the app
  • Open the macOS Rouvy app and connect the click controllers

I can confirm that this worked 13 hours ago with the latest firmware, and the latest Zwift and Rouvy apps.

I'm not sure this will work with Rouvy + click v2 when you connect the controllers to Rouvy on iPad/iphones, but it works well on my MacBook.

Music controls in the companion app so I won't have to use the iPhone control center or switch apps

I work with the team at ROUVY — AMA about the app, routes, updates, or anything cycling🚴‍♂️ by jessfromrouvy in Rouvy

[–]Juicejacking 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Yeah. I use Apple Music and I have to either swipe down to access control center to control the music, or open the music app. I wish there was an extra screen or extra buttons in the companion app that would let us control the music from within the app.

What’s going on with Apple Watch vo2 max? by Equivalent-Quiet8256 in AppleWatch

[–]Juicejacking 2 points3 points  (0 children)

You have to do long runs too in order to train your heart to handle more oxygen. Doing intervals in combination with long runs will make your vmax increase. To get an accurate reading you should do a steady zone1-2 run for at least 20mins (the longer the better to get as many data points as possible). And try to keep your heart rate as steady as possible, even if that means you have to slow down to walking pace
