Ha! Nice one.

Steve A would totally be into that too, he loves a 'spoons :)

Why do some people's rides say 'sufferfest' on them and others don't? Premium members with hr

Sufferfest video/workout?

Not a video, a real outdoor ride. It says it under the sufferscore: Tough Suffer Score Sufferfest

Think it relates to time spent in hr zones... screenshots are an easy ride by a guy I know, plus an actual'sufferfest' branded session by another guy.

Edit adding 'extreme' ride i found probably a notch or two below sufferfest.

Points in the Red
Points in the Red is the portion of your Suffer Score that you earned in your Zone 4 and Zone 5 heart rate zones. Points in the Red shows you the intensity of your workout. If your Points in the Red are 90% of your Suffer Score or higher, your activity is considered a Sufferfest.

111 suffer points, 101 points in the red, the shoe fits!
78% of his ride (time-wise) was in z4 or z5.

Thanks all!

If people are using StravistiX, they have just made some updates that combine Power and HR data to create a single fitness/freshness chart. Looks pretty decent, handy if you don't have access to power all or some of the time.

It's still flawed, like Strava, in that there is no history of FTP.

New training feature thing on the app, looks okay. Wish there was some consistency between what I can look at on my phone and what is on the web interface though, nice graphs only accessible on a tiny screen? Okay.

I want to do a session on a spin bike this afternoon. Is there an app I can use to record basically just a hr file, that can be uploaded to strava afterwards?

Strava can. Is the HRM Bluetooth or Ant+?

It works with my phone, I think it's ant+.
Whenever I've tried this in the past, it fails - no gps data

Is it just auto-pausing? Tried changing activity type?

Can you post a copy of the file?

Motorcycles...

The spin bike is underground and so there is no gps connection, so strava says ' no movement detected' (or something) when you finish the session and the file is discarded

I use the app IpBike for that

Awesome, exactly what I was looking for. Will test next time, thank you

Can anyone think of a good reason why a metric like miles behind goal pace would only be displayed on web - desktop and mobile - but not the app?

Can anyone think of a good reason

Different development teams that don't talk to each other creating discrepancies in what is available in each interface.

Garmin Connect (app vs web) is the same too.

It's a reason, not a good reason.

I know it's lame, but I got a time on a segment today that would put me in fifth, up from 96th, and only a few (ahem 30) seconds behind Jon. But Strava is still using my old time on the Segment.

What gives?

Sometimes takes a few minutes to update.

This happens to me, when i have my ride (commute) on private.

Old fith person flagged it?
