Strange issues with Ultra 4

Today, my Ultra 4 arrived. Previously, I used the Series 11. I have a Garmin 970 on my other wrist.

Today was my first run with the Ultra 4, and I was very disappointed.

Pulse. I always run with Polar Sense. The Series 11 transmitted the pulse at the end of the run to Apple Health, and then everything went to Bevel. Today, however, I only got the average pulse rate. That’s it. There’s no other pulse data. With the Series 11, I didn’t have such problems; I’m trying to figure out what the issue might be.

GPS. The discrepancy with Garmin was 200 meters. At the same time, the track itself is just terrible. I still can’t understand how the Series 11, with the same frequency, produced a track that was better than the Ultra 4? And I was running in fairly open terrain. No tall buildings, no dense forest. I really hope that maybe they’re being calibrated. Before the training session started, I deliberately waited for them to catch the satellites.

Now I’m trying to figure out whether it’s worth keeping Ultra 4. I hope for your help. Thanks for your attention

I want to try Race 2.

Hi. I’ve been using Garmin for many years now, I’m currently testing Coros, and I’ve always been interested in trying Suunto. I’m thinking about getting the Race 2.

I wanted to ask how true the stories are about the watch turning off and restarting on its own initiative. Is it true that the data on the watch and in the app can differ, and the difference can be even greater when exporting?

I’m also interested in how they calculate strength training. Is it the same as at Garmin? Is there an approach, time, rest periods, and can you input the weight?

And I’m curious — I was told by some acquaintances that you can’t change the data fields. For that, you need to create a new workout. But then how does Suunto analyze how many calories I’ve burned and so on if I’m running a custom activity? After all, cycling and running are different algorithms.

Thank you for your attention.

Zwift frame

Hello everyone. I bought a Zwift frame to add extra load to my running. I’ve been trying to adjust my fit for a while now and I’ve noticed that my foot is a bit sore. Sometimes it’s the heel, and sometimes, when I put all my weight on one leg, it’s in the area where the foot attaches to the leg. I’m new to cycling; I’ve done a bit of research on fit, watched some videos, but I understand that people with more experience will be able to identify the mistake in my fit faster and help me adjust it. I hope for your help, thank you for your attention)
