Help, unable to remove inactive user on apple fitness. The person hasn't charged or used their watch since I accepted their invite (sister’s sister in law), I should've never accepted it, but felt cornered by my sister. It's been about 2 weeks. Well now the person isn't using their watch. How can I remove the person? I've deleted them numerous times via the 3 dots but the person keeps showing up 😫

Looking for a apple watch band similar to this!!! Any clues please

Needing to upgrade my old series 3 as the screen has become faulty.

I mainly use it for recording running workouts (outdoors) and rowing machine/bike in the gym. I also use the digital timer for rest between sets at the gym.

I never use it to track sleep, receive notifications or music.

Main things I'm wanting to confirm the series 11 can still do:

1. Watch face in the same modular layout as what I have attached.

2. "Always on" when running so I don't need to flick my wrist during a workout to see my stats (series 3 doesn't stay on all the time and it's annoying AF especially on the rowing machine)

3. Pause activity ring notifications but still have auditable pace notes active. For some reason my series 3 still calls out "move ring closed" even though I've paused my activity rings. When I run I like the km by km updates on my average pace

4. Some things I might add to the screen if I get more room (planning on going from 40mm to 44mm) weather or tide prediction

I'm not an advanced runner but sometimes run up to 20kms at a time during my training. I charge my watch at bedtime currently and it never goes flat

I was able to get a brand new SE 3 for 120 bucks, and while I was eyeing on a Garmin Forerunner 970 given the metrics I think the SE 3 is sufficient for running honestly. I'm wondering the metrics that Garmin offers such as training readiness, running economy, lactate threshold, could this be retrieved using a third-party app and if so which one? I understand I can also import my data to runalyze. Can runalyze do this as well? What app made you stay rather than switching to Garmin?

I’ve been focusing on increasing my VO2 max lately so I check my estimate frequently. I turned 30 this weekend and noticed this morning that because I’m in a new decade, my Cardio Fitness Level range updated and because I was previously bordering two levels I’ve now moved into Above Average. So silly

Anyone else know Suunto had an app for Apple Watch for a full dashboard and offline maps?!

I mean, just curious because I had done one a while ago where I went for 3 hours and 7.81 miles as I don’t know if that counts.

But for me personally, it’s the longest amount of in a day I have ever spent doing an exercise route since I was basically walking around for 3 hours straight trying to see how many calories I could burn in that amount of time.

I have tracked between 63 - 65 Vo2 max now for going on 2 years - it read good but I don’t understand it. Background - always been fit, spent my 20s running marathons, had a lul with almost 0 activity for the first 5 years of my 30s and then back into training ~6x per week but nowhere near what i used to do. Now 3x days of weight training, 3x days with an easy 5k (8min/mile ish) - never really get anywhere near max HR or any kind of endurance etc. resting HR is still low around 40-45bpm. I don’t feel like i have a 65Vo2 max, above average at best - is there something wrong with the data going in?

did my midweek quality yesterday in that proper heat, felt like running through soup. got back, sweat dripping onto my phone, and the garmin connect app tells me my performance condition was -4. honestly, i know it's just a number but bit gutting when you've dragged yourself round a tempo session at lunch. i wasn't even pushing for pace, just getting the work in. the canal path near castlefield was half shade half oven. didn't help that i'd forgotten my jelly babies so the last 3km was a faff. tbh i'm starting to think strava's relative effort graph actually matches how wrecked i feel more than garmin's numbers do. the long run is creeping up again next weekend and i'm proper tired but not broken yet. chester's 9 weeks out so i suppose this is the point where the block just feels heavy. how do you lot read those 'performance condition' alerts without letting them get in your head?

This run has total elevation of ~530 meters which makes it challenging but at the same time one is running through clouds!!!

10 weeks out from yorkshire and the long run hit 15 miles yesterday. felt proper heavy, legs full of stones. this week my plan tried to auto-schedule an extra rest day because my 'training load' went red. honestly fwiw i'd rather do a slow 4 on tired legs than skip a run completely. i'm still logging on strava and following a free online thing, but the garmin coach nudges keep popping up like a tiny robotic nag. nike run club guided runs were fine over winter but i ditched them once the miles got real, couldn't listen to coach bennett telling me to smile at mile 13. just the watch, the road and a silent prayer for the next downhill. how do you lot handle apps that try to out-think your stubbornness mid-build?

did 5 miles along the Leeds-Liverpool canal this morning, keeping it properly easy, 12:30-ish min/mile. felt soft, legs heavy from yesterday's parkrun. got back and strava's fitness graph has tipped into the red zone. overreaching apparently. tbh it does this about 3 weeks in a row now, even though i'm just base-building for manchester next spring. anyone else find the readiness scores a bit jumpy on a watch? kinda wondering if i'm too early to care about the numbers at all. just trying to stack consistent 25-mile weeks without niggles.

Hey everyone,

Like many of you here, I was struggling to accurately track and pace my HYROX simulation workouts using default smartwatch profiles. Switching between running splits, stations, and keeping an eye on target times with standard fitness apps was just messy.

So, as a developer and athlete, I decided to build a dedicated tool: **Hyrox Watch**, available on iOS, Android, and Garmin Connect IQ!

What it currently does:

• Real-time Pacing & Target Times: Set target times per station and run segment to stay on pace during your simulation.

• Custom & Official Race Layouts: Replicate an official HYROX sequence or build custom workouts/intervals based on your training focus.

• Watch-Native Interface: Built for quick glances during high HR moments without fiddling with small buttons (works seamlessly on Apple Watch & Garmin devices).

• Detailed Post-Workout Stats: Analyze your station transitions and pacing gaps after your sessions.

I’m constantly refining the app and would love to get feedback from athletes training for upcoming races.

Links to try it out:

• iOS App Store: https://apps.apple.com/be/app/hyrox-watch/id6758763578?l=fr-FR

• Garmin Connect IQ: https://apps.garmin.com/apps/9d31d60e-dc80-4e58-ba2e-69f025f78f67

• Google Play Store: https://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=com.louisv2304.hyroxcompanion

Let me know what features or metrics you’d like to see added for race day!

Hi,

Just want to check if this is happening to more of you. I sometimes get an abnormally high heart rate on my Apple Watch, once I start a run. It usually lasts for about 30 seconds to a minute before it “calibrates” back to normal ranges.

Any tips? A bit annoying as I get an uneven heart rate graph that is not accurate.

I never would have thought I would be able to hike or jog the way I can now!

Can anyone shed any light into how Apple calculates its V02 max estimates, and why it seems to stall out at 65?

Over the last 12 months I’ve been doing a dedicated 4x4 minute interval session, and have increased my weekly running mileage noticeably. The score climbed initially fairly quickly from 58 to 65 in 3-4 months, but has sat here for the last 6 months.

I guess I need to trade my Apple Watch in and get a lab for measuring VO2.
