Wahoo SYSTM

I am not a cyclist. First time used such an app. Utterly rubbish: Uses random videos with random leftist agenda that you cannot skip forward. They do not actually show the racing view but random video about racing. Icons in library denote video type, not the actual training. Deleted the app and cancelled subscription after 6 min of trying to get the cycling view.

I’ve been a user ever since this app was released. I bought it for the cycling workouts and training plans which are great. However, the hidden gem of the app for me is the strength training, mobility, and yoga library of workouts. I’m in my 50s and have accumulated more than my share of injuries over the years (bike crashes, martial arts, knee problems from running). The library of workouts has mitigated the pain, strength, and flexibility impacts of those injuries down to a level I didn’t think was possible. The library doesn’t have CARs exercises specifically (which help with mobility) but I’ve found that I can adapt a number of the movements to make them effective CARs workouts. It sounds melodramatic but in some respects I actually feel 20+ years younger thanks to the app. The app isn’t perfect, the video playback is buggy as is the calendar. However, the software is regularly updated so I assume/hope they will eventually get around to fixing/modernizing those functions.

As a woman cyclist who’s not into the gamification aspect of other virtual cycling apps, I really love being a Systm subscriber. However how come such little content seems to include women cyclists? Wahoo, please explore ways to partner with media rights owners who’d allow you to use footage from women’s cycling races. Lotta white dudes on my screen, which is making you all feel a little outdated.

Found all the vids distracting Where are the training sessions?/ Tried for 3 weeks but got annoyed by this app

This is the worst app I have ever used it has screwed my bike up. I pressed pause in the middle of a warm up to get water. I come back and the resistance is screwed up. It feels like I am biking through cement. I was looking forward to wahoo but I have lost all respect for the brand. They make crappy products and screw people over.

I’m not a pro, racer, of Zwift overlord. I’ve been trying out the various indoor cycling apps, mostly on free trial basis, and I’m one of the few who finds Zwift mostly demotivating - the gamified / SNES feel just doesn’t work for me. Luckily, there are some really good options out there that are different enough to justify using more than one app. I subscribed to SYSTM because what makes it stand out is the variety of the training content - entertaining videos of pros combining training with entertaining tidbits (On Location - great stuff!), to hardcore motivational videos, to just focused workout plans. Add to that the additional workouts for other sports and mental training, which are rounding up this app very nicely. The best part is that a training plan can combine all or none of these, so each session offers something different. Love the possibility to have all this tailored to one’s 4DP training area. What we now need is an ‘on-demand recalculation’ of the training plan, e.g. if I move sessions forward or do more in day, or if I need to sit one out (travel, injury, etc), it would be fantastic if SYSTM recomputes the training plan at the push of a button. A bit of ‘AI’ would be useful here. Big fan so far. Went from KICKR SNAP to CORE in the last 5 years.

I generally love the sessions and the training plans. However, the training calendar is constantly not showing up on my iPhone app. This is exclusive to the iphone and does not happen at all on ipad or Mac. Deleting app, logging out and in are only temporary fixes. The issue always returns. This is fairly annoying as the phone is what is consistently with me and I just am not able to see what I have on tap for the day or week.

Awesome app, does what it is supposed to do, intuitive UI. One thing I’d like to see is the ability to send reminders like “hey lazy chump, you scheduled a workout for today so remember to get to it in 30 minutes”. Or maybe integrate the SYSTM calendar with the default iOS calendar so I can have widgets!

Won’t connect to my kickr or wahoo cadence pod after update. Bar in HR sensor connects though. What a joke

This app is complete GARBAGE!! Tried 2x to do their FTP test and it failed both times!! The animation is completely uninteresting and the workouts are extremely unstructured and vague. There is ABSOLUTELY ZERO reason to choose this over Zwift. Wahoo stick to making equipment!!!!!
