I got this a couple months ago and love it. Connects well with the phone and the bike and has the zones right on the band so you can check your heart rate on an out door run or boot camp class. Way better than the hrm they sent with my bike.
I love the band. I got it 3 weeks ago with my bike plus package and it works flawlessly. I have a Samsung phone and I heard that the option to connect to the app will be coming soon. It woukd be great to get more data for outdoor workouts
Did you go with a large or small? I measured my forearm and was surprised to see I fit in the large category. My build seems similar to yours, so curious to see what size you went with.
no the Bike Plus has Apple Gym Kit so it will support the Apple Watch (except for Lane Break I believe). Apple Watch is also semi-supported on the regular bike and tread through the app, but its not as good and can occasionally have issues.
some like it for more accurate calorie burn counting, others to assess cardiac improvement. Personally I use it to monitor how much time I'm spending in various HR Zones to better analyze my training throughout the week, as well as monitor fatigue and keep workouts within my intended goals.
Wahoo does make a comparable armband, but it costs $79 so pretty close amzn.to/3LrsehX The benefits of the wahoo are ANT+ support and longer battery life. Design-wise I prefer the Peloton one but both are great options.
