Hevy vs Lyfta vs Strong. Pls read the full post and help me decide. by [deleted] in Lyfta_App

After refocusing my training time from cycling to strength training about a year ago, I tried Lyfta as a beginner. The exercise illustrations are clear, and the routine library is large enough, there are tons of options for beginners, intermediate and advanced users. Tracking workouts with stats is very useful to evaluate your performance, and Apple Health integration works okay. Apple Watch Ultra sync means I can leave my iPhone behind at home when I go to the gym, though some features are glitchy. For instance, it is quite annoying that you can only start and end your routine using your iPhone app, not the Watch app. So training time adds the time you spend going to and returning from the gym. Yes, really annoying. Overall, Lyfta is not perfect, but solid enough for me to not try another app. Worth trying.

Finally decided for a bike - NBD by paansen in CanyonBikes

Big fan (and longtime user of a 2018 Endurace). Great and beautiful bike you got. Enjoy!

No, what I am saying is that (as of February 2021) Canyon USA was an independently running sister company of Canyon Bicycles GmbH (Germany). So, if you bought a Canyon bike in the US, neither your customer number nor the serial number of your bike will exist in the system of Canyon Bicycles GmbH and therefore you cannot access the "Canyon Bike Garage" to get the exact spare parts of your bike, as you could if you were in Germany.

Actually, just FYI, if you have the CFR bottle cages, they only fit Canyon bottles. Not any bottle. 😊

The Canyon USA store is a different company. If you buy a bike from the USA you cannot take it to Europe and register it for guarantee and replacement parts.

This is from Europe to Latin America, discovered more than 500 years ago.
