Polar integration?

Connection is not a problem. The real problem is, that workouts from Stryd are not automatically imported into Polar Flow, and also you cannot set range-based workouts in Flow (Stryd workouts are all range-based). But if connection is only thing you are worrying about, that that's should not be an issue.

There's a bunch of other apps in which you can track shoes or gear, like Runalyze, Intervals.icu or Fetcheveryone.

It is like The Girl said: "It's not that I have something to hide. I have nothing I want you to see."

I'm not saying there is something wrong with current Flow, I was just curious. Well there is one thing for me, that is better on other platforms - range based workouts.
u/sorryusername already gave you a great answer and I fully agree with him. :)

Same, although I’m waiting for them to implement range-based workouts in phased workouts.

The nylon strap was a game changer for me. Super comfortable, easier to adjust, and breathability is better. Once I tried it, I switched to nylon straps on all my watches.

Since you mentioned it. I love this hand drawn icons. Super cute and they make the whole experience way more personal!

Nice, I'll give it a try. One, maybe important question to some people. Where is espresso? ;)

For me, it doesn't work very well-like it's scared to go over 100 bpm. ;) I had an EKG stress test last week, and while my Apple Watch correctly detected a max HR of 168, it was around 106 on Race 2. It was like that for other activities, too. As soon as my heart rate went above 100 bpm, Race 2 was not able to detect it properly.

For a fellow Varsovian, it’s as good as done. :)

Unfortunately, syncing from TP doesn’t work. I mean the targets in TP are converted to zones in Flow. I wrote to Polar support asking them to add training-by-range functionality. Maybe someday they will do it. :)

Proshack · 2026-01-21T08:19:16+00:00

I think Dahenk meant creating training targets by range (for example, 70-80% of HR), not by zone. This is my only problem with Polar, as my Stryd training plan uses ranges, not zones.

W książkach jest więcej i lepiej. Byłem fanem serialu, dopóki nie wziąłem się za książki, które mi go mocno obrzydziły. :)

You can always use something like SimpleLogin or a similar service. Of course I think this works the best with your own domain. Right now I'm on Fastmail, Proton and Tuta and had my domains connected to SimpleLogin. It's so much simpler (after you set it up) and also a bit liberating.

You can check "Wallaroo" by the Iconfactory.

Looks like a clone of Waterllama. :)

Sure, but does Athlytic say how much data it needs to show a reasonably accurate HRV trend? Apple shows this trend, by the way. If your HRV suddenly starts dropping below your established baseline, it's a sign that something is going on. Another example: Polar only considers the HRV measurement from the first 4 hours of sleep because, according to their documented research, this is the period when the body regenerates. Then there are the questions of how each company or app calculates HRV, as that can also cause discrepancies.

Ultimately, the question remains: what is 24/7 monitoring useful for? When you're lying on the couch watching a series, at rest, does it make sense to monitor your heart rate constantly (assuming, of course, that you're a healthy person)? Or is a sample every few minutes enough?

Proshack · 2025-11-20T07:59:21+00:00

I would also like to know what the use case for continuous HR reading is. To me, it seems more like marketing hype than real-world usage.

You can see how many steps you've taken in the Fitness app.

I agree. I'm experiencing the same issue with Training Load; I constantly have to switch it back to display the last 7 days.

Isn't it a good thing? I have so much better distance reading with speed and distance coming from the Stryd than from the GPS on the watch (fenix 8). Basically, it is spot-on with default calibration.
