It’d be pretty slick if they would make a special indoor training panel in the fitness app for if you just have cadence and time, you could input the distance traveled (obtainable from many stationary bikes) and then it could calculate average mph, and for those of us that also sync with fitness pal things like calories burned, etc. I don´t know the teknoligy behind but it seems like it works. 0000006546 00000 n You can also enter values for time, energy expenditure, or weight loss - your ride distance will be adjusted to match.
