Hello Outsiders! Time for an update as loaded as your quads. Well, almost. For those who love to spin the pedals, we’ve got something sweet: Cycling Power Zones now just a click away. That, and lots of smaller perks. Dig in.
▶ CYCLING POWER ZONES (CPZ)
Yes, cyclist, we see you, we feel you, we are you! CPZ are now available in both the Workout Summary and the Progress tab.
In the Workout Summary, you’ll see your Power Zone distribution next to Training Focus and Heart Rate Zones for every logged ride. In the Progress tab, you can track your 4-week and 12-week Power Zone distribution under Intensity Distribution, plus your Long-Term Overview displaying weekly CPZ distribution for all your recorded history.
To see this feature, you’ll need cycling power data - which means a power meter. If you’re new to tracking power, this feature will appear after your first cycling power data log in Health.
▶ BODY METRICS
The small charts on the Today tab now have an updated visualisation and transition between ranges. If you went far outside of your normal range with any of the metrics, this should now be clearly visible even when this measurement is already in the past.
▶ WORKOUT SUMMARY
Each Heart Rate Zone and Power Zone now displays the minimum and maximum range value on the right side next to duration. This one doesn’t show up in the Progress tab, because your zones might change over time.
▶ TRAINING FOCUS ZONES
Training Focus Zones are now displayed for all the workouts with at least one minute of your heart rate measurements above the bottom threshold. You can adjust your Training Focus Zones in The Outsiders > Profile > Personal & Fitness Details > Training Focus Zones.
▶ PROGRESS TAB
Fitness cards (Endurance Fitness, Cardio Fitness, Cycling FTP) now display a date of your last logged value, to provide a better overview of your values at a glance.
▶ BUG FIXES
With this version we also introduce the following set of bug fixes:
・ HR zones not saving > should now be saving correctly.
・ Body metrics (overnight vs. all-day) confusion > resolved. If you sleep with your watch, we’ll use overnight data. Keep in mind that if you miss tracking some nights, there will be a gap in your trend. If you don’t, we’ll take daytime measurements. This (data source choice) applies retroactively to your full history.
・ Wrist temperature chart now makes sense for Fahrenheit users > it used to show Celsius limits, yikes.
If being an Outsider feels like home, don’t keep it a secret hideout - help more lost athletes find their way to the front door! A 5-star rating and a positive review on the App Store is like dropping breadcrumbs on the trail (we started with a metaphor, and, in classic Outsider fashion, we’re going all in on it): it helps others discover the app, grows our community, and supports the indie team behind it so we can keep building.
