Stryd running power meter review. Turning an Apple or Garmin watch into the ultimate running watch

Stryd is a wearable running gadget that clips onto the shoe laces of one of your running shoes and measures your running power, as well as a number of other metrics. The data is all fed in real time to your running watch or in my case Apple Watch. [I have a review of the latest Stryd Wind now up too:    • New Stryd foot pod running power meter wit...  ] Typically runners measure their effort by feel, heart rate, or more commonly by pace from their running watch. You might try and run a 5k race at 7 minute miles say, and you'd use your watch to check your pace was on track. But what happens when you're going up hill or down hill? Or the terrain changes, and you're running through mud or over moorland? This is where the Stryd footpod comes in. Stryd generates a power number in Watts that you aim to try and keep roughly constant. So you don't go too hard uphill, or too easy downhill for example. But it does a lot more than this, including measuring your running form as well as distance and pace, more accurately than is possible using GPS. -------- Purchase Stryd (10% off until November 29th with code: blackfriday2021): https://buy.stryd.com/store?referrer_... -------- Get 3 extra months of ExpressVPN FREE: https://www.expressvpn.com/thetechnol...
