Aye, author here. Pleased it's getting visibility ofc, but ABSOLUTELY not expecting to get traction this early.
Please pardon the AI-generated placeholder images and some of the text at https://intensity.systems https://intensity.systems, I'm still very actively working on that.
- hex4def6 5mo agoI'm curious about the units -- watts doesn't really seem right. It seems like joules would make more sense, right?
- andreareina 5mo agoI agree that total work is probably the more relevant metric.
- leblancfg 5mo agoBoth are needed, but for an athlete watts is by far the more useful feedback for training, and following the intended stimulus of workouts. As a workout, "bike 30 km" is vague and meaningless. "bike 30km in 1h" is better, but not specific to the athlete: some have better cardio than others. Most serious cardio workouts are given in zones: "bike 1h at 60-65% of your functional threshold power" [1] – this particular workout would also be known as "zone 2 training session".

- leblancfg 5mo agoThinking back, I should also add: if you're interested in how hard a single hit is, then yes joules! I'm approaching it as a workout, where you're doing dozens of hit. Good idea to have an individual strike joule view to the display though! "carnival mode"
