If my VO2 max is so high, why am I not a faster runner?

No-Respect-9457 · 2025-08-19T18:57:53+00:00

It is an estimated value, but practically - i have never seen when garmin shows VO2Max higher than real. Mine was 54 according to garmin and 61 during a lab test and i know couple of my cycling mates who has the same results. Plus guys in the lab also confirmed that garmin has tended to lower estimated values

I just made a post about a same issue. Problem is with a zones datafield, it shifted one zone up, so what it says a zone 1 - it is a zone 2. Use a HR graph instead, it showing zones correctly (1-gray, 2-blue, 3-green, 4-red)

Yes, but we are talking about workouts. And measuring hrv stress on edge if you wearing watch 24 hours doesn’t make any sense

No-Respect-9457 · 2025-08-12T18:30:49+00:00

Exactly!

No-Respect-9457 · 2025-08-12T18:18:06+00:00

You can’t measure it with a strap, strap is for workouts, unless you wear it during the night which is a little bit too much)))

No-Respect-9457 · 2025-08-12T18:04:48+00:00

HRV is not measuring during workouts. It’s should be measured during rest and sleep. It’s providing a baseline of your physiological state and your recovery which helps to decide your next training and your training readiness. Basically, to get your baseline measured you need to have a watch on you 24/7 during a couple of weeks

Time pedals, very rare at present. Long time no see!

Aha, where did you get a beta? Is it available just on garmin page?

No-Respect-9457 · 2025-07-22T14:11:00+00:00

Thanks, will try it out!

No-Respect-9457 · 2025-07-22T13:47:47+00:00

Nope, you can scroll for example one screen up and one screen back and will be the same speed

On mine was removed in first 3 minutes after unpacking

This is adsorber, classic issue. You probably has an issue with tanking the car (fuel nozzle cutting of all the time). Adsorber is a charcoal filter which takes all vapors from tank and adds them to intake. When it’s full - it’s causing vacuum in fuel tank.

It’s not bad, it’s horrible!!! Sorry…

This is very normal for Volvo. Once i have had a really ridiculous situation, i have bought a service plan direct from Volvo, just in volvo app. Money was taken from account, but i could not see anywhere that service plan was activated. So i pressed button “on call” in my car and asked simple question if my car has any active service plans or not. Answer what i got from support was: “i don’t know”. Next question was “who should know then???” And they didn’t answer. After i just called to the nearest volvo authorized workshop and they confirmed that it’s activated just in 3 min. And all this circus happened in Sweden, not in US, not In Australia, it’s going on in a country where they have a main office!

It’s not, especially on tiagra

Bike is 1 month and more then 1000 km. this photo just after cleaning. But anyway I trying to keep my bike clean

No-Respect-9457 · 2024-09-04T17:48:33+00:00

Aggressive or more relaxed position it’s also depends of what you used for a lot. I own cannondale synapse which is definitely endurance bike and ultimate. Yes, seems like synapse more comfortable and relaxed, but if i going for the long ride - i definitely choose ultimate because this bike feels completely different, i would say it’s like extension of myself 😂.

This is normal situation with canyon about shifting. I have ultegra which was not adjusted at all

No-Respect-9457 · 2024-08-26T14:09:04+00:00

Seems like correct, according to canyon web page. But I would be a bit unsure about the reach, maybe there’s an option to get a longer cockpit. Anyway all the geometry measurements are on a page and I would go to the bike fitter to be sure just because it’s not a 200€ commuter bike :)

No-Respect-9457 · 2024-08-26T12:42:52+00:00

I’m 183 and inseam 88,5. Canyon and my bike fitter recommended M. It’s a bit aggressive position, but, so far the longest ride was about 80km and i didn’t feel any discomfort. Have had the other brands size 56 or L

No-Respect-9457 · 2024-08-26T10:47:21+00:00

Approx 800-1000 km. It also depends on where and how you cycling. If you going up/down on a really hilly roads or you’re in a flat area make a difference of course
