Losing faith on the S9 (treadmill & HR) latest firmware

@silentvoyager And S3’s do that

If you about the correct values for treadmill I would use foot pod for that and all your suffering is ended
none of whatches gave me exact values and none of treadmill in casual gym is calibrated, so foot pod is the best solution for you all -
For me the SSSWHR does a decent job on a treadmill, not perfect, but decent as in sufficient for me and my use.
But I am disappointed while using it on a crosstrainer. I do not expect perfection at all, but I really wonder why the results show for today: 60:00 min of use, distance 2,55 km, with 9446 steps, or a few days ago 45:00 min of use, 2,06 km, 6947 steps. So it seems, that the number of steps has been registered correctly… but at the same time the algorithm seems to count every stride with only a “few centimeters” . So: cadence sensor seems to be good, the algorithm not.
And no - of course most of these values can only be seen on the watch, and not in the incredibly “not too good” SA-app.
And yes - I would vastly prefer to run outdoors, but have to be patient and suffer indoors due to my marvelous Achilles tendon

@Shrek3k I think the treadmill is no ones weapon of choice.

… so true -
My treadmill run today was spot on. Run on the treadmill every blue moon though. I think it is calibrated enough from outdoor runs.
-
@SlaSh I don’t care that much about accuracy on tradmills to buy a footpod. I run on a treadmill only 1-2 miles per week as a warm-up in a gym as opposed to 30-40 miles per week outside. But it would be nice for the error to be less than 20-30%. Just let me calibrate it myself as opposed to automatic calibration.

I thought not to start a new thread but yesterday from my 18k outdoor run I have all sorts of different values.
Watch and app show avg bmp 146 and movescount 137. you can see the difference in the graphs. Also the first minutes are completely wrong with max heart rate. I did push towards the end so the app graph is closer to the truth although it certainly did not feel anywhere near 180+ (especially at that pace)
Also my pace on the watch was 4:56 whereas on strata 4:53.
I used the heart rate belt.

@nassosc For the Strava issue, Strava filters data, removes all data where Strava thinks you are not moving so speeds will not match.
For the HR, if you filter out the high reading at start with MC, do they match well? Avg HR? This is common when the belt is not getting good contact at the beginning or the belt is old or dirty.
I do not know why the spike at the start did not show up in SA. How did you sync to both? MC first then SA?
-
the belt is new and clean. First I synced the SA and then MC.
-
@nassosc Always, when I use Suunto belt, Strava has wrong values. When i measure HR from S9 OHR, Strava HR is fine.
-
@nassosc That is just weird…I have not seen these issues with my belt but I am not directly syncing to MC anymore.
-
@Brad_Olwin not sure what you mean with directly… I connect to moves count every time I need to charge the watch. The charger is on my Mac.
-
@nassosc I am transferring to Movescount by RunGap on iOS so I am not directly sending data to MC but via a 3rd party.
