BUG: Run prediction and lactate threshold missing

Mi_chael

You’re right. It’s not clear at all.

But for sure. I run with a Polar H10 heart rate strap.

Ryan Mullins

I’ve seen a few suggestions that you need to use wrist heart rate to get LT and Race Predictions

I tried a run with just wrist HR and it was so bad to start that I wouldn’t trust the predictions it might come up with and didn’t try more runs.

Any word on when this might be resolved? Would the calculations work using a Suunto Smart Belt?

Marius Jacobsen Eggerud

@Ryan-Mullins As far as I know this will be solved in the next major update. Solved means that it will make predictions even if you use an external HR unit.

It seems I am too affected by this on the Race (weird enough it works on the Vertical). I’ve had the Race for 10 days now and run almost every day and while the Vo2Max is computed the treshold and the estimations are not. Of course I am always running with the H10 or Garmin Pro Plus (external HRs). Is this known that OHR should be used? If yes this will result in quite ‘unrealistic’ results since the OHR always locks on my cadence somethimes as high as 210 while my Max HR achieved with H10 / Garmin is 178.

@Marius-Jacobsen-Eggerud That would be terrific

Marius Jacobsen Eggerud

@EzioAuditore yes, it has been written here by Suunto that you need to use OHR for now. Next major release will solve the issue according to Suunto.

EzioAuditore

@Marius-Jacobsen-Eggerud OK cool. Thanks.

@EzioAuditore it may be that you need only to unlock this one (i.e. run once with the OHR) and after you get the first value using the external monitor works. Should be fixed with new firmware.

EzioAuditore

@isazi thanks mate. I am in no rush to get the estimates but would like to know the LT with the Suunto. Will try and run my long run this Sunday with OHR though. Cheers and have a nice day.

Marius Jacobsen Eggerud

@isazi didn’t work for me.

isazi

@EzioAuditore for the LT, better do the S+ test, the estimate from the Race does not work for me.

That’s my experience. I ran with OHR a couple of times to get an estimate. Last time I used a HR belt and got slightly different estimates, so it seems to work with the belt now.

isazi

@EzioAuditore managed to get an estimate yet? A fix should be released with the next update, that we are all patiently waiting for (and it should not be too far).

EzioAuditore

@isazi Sorry mate. Didn’t use the OHR cause I am finishing marathon training plan and I kinda need accurate HR so still using only sensor. I get pretty accurate estimations from Stryd so not crucial at the moment. Once I finish I will give it a try. Even better if it comes with the next FW (btw the watch has been joy to use I cannot overstate this Much better experience than what I got with the SV. To be honest I am afraid to get the SV on my summer trip but will give it a go it was stable for 2 weeks non-stop running albeit without guides and Stryd connection )

EzioAuditore

@isazi Hi again ~~Do you know if the newest FW (July) enabled estimates with belt?~~ I’ve run around 6 runs (easy, tempo, intervals, long) but still no estimates. Cheers.

Edit:

Running estimate and lactate with HR belt.

Apparently it did

Marius Jacobsen Eggerud

@EzioAuditore works like a dream for me after latest software update!

EzioAuditore

@Marius-Jacobsen-Eggerud Still nothing for me I wonder if switching between the Race and the Ocean affects this although I suppose not. All the 6 runs were done with the Race (+ 2 with the Ocean).
Will see if after tomorrow’s tempo it will show smt.

Marius Jacobsen Eggerud

@EzioAuditore so you still cannot see it in the progress widget? Strange.

EzioAuditore

@Marius-Jacobsen-Eggerud Nope it still says at least 3 runs…

Marius Jacobsen Eggerud

@EzioAuditore Strange. I got mine estimate after the first run with new software.
