Cadence Coach
A cadence training app for Fitbit OS. The app uses haptic feedback to train a runner to run at their target cadence.
Description
Train yourself to run at your optimal cadence with Cadence Coach! Running at your optimal cadence can help reduce overstriding and decrease the impact forces on your muscles and bones, minimizing your risk of injury.
- Go for a comfortable run to find your base cadence.
- Set your target 5-10% higher and work towards your final goal incrementally.
- Adjust your target cadence with the physical buttons on the side of your tracker.
- Use the upper button to increase your target cadence and the lower button to decrease.
- The app uses haptic feedback to alert you of your performance in relation to your target.
- A Morse Code-like vibration pattern of "Dash" indicates that you are running above your target cadence while a pattern of "Dot Dot" indicates that you are below.
- There is a built-in 3 steps-per-minute tolerance.
Remember not to increase your cadence too quickly to avoid injury.
