I’ve been experimenting a lot with the best flow for incline treadmill training with various apps and pods and sensors and all that good fun stuff. Zwift Running is a great motivating interface, but is sadly lacking in functionality in working together with Stryd. They had a director of running who had promised a lot of great interactivity moving forward, but then Covid came and the huge influx of cyclists prompted them to cancel a lot of anything having to do with the future, and actually roll back some of their development, including getting rid of the running department. Based on a podcast interview with their CEO recently.
Zwift will actually accumulate a small subset of data from the Stryd footpod, basically current watts and cadence. That’s not a lot if you’re a data fetishist, and need all the datas. It is enough to export back to Stryd, should you only care about current watts and cadence. It at least gets you the heart rate, in case you’re not a Stryd fanatic and actually care about heart rate.
Is it the best option? Not really, since you do have to go back and forth a few times with downloads and uploads and all. FWIW there is no real all-in-one complete solution. I’ll elucidate in a future podcast and/or video.
Note: as I point out in this video, there will be no watt boost for inclination, nor elevation gain information. Only the Stryd App for iOs variants will give you that, but at the expense of heart rate data and having to clean GPS data showing your garage to the world before you can share it to other apps.
