    Cycling Cadence sensors

    Apple mentioned cycling cadence, speed and power monitoring during the WWDC keynote. I've got a cadence/speed sensor that I've been able to get working using a 3rd party app. Is this functional yet in the workout app or Fitness+?

    Custom workouts for something other than running?

    Is it possible to create custom workouts for activities other than running? Would be especially useful for swimming so that I don't have to remember every set but can simply check the watch. I could also use (free) third party apps if there is any. Many thanks in advance!

    Workout creates splits by itself?

    I cannot figure this out and hope someone can help. I take a daily walk and tell my watch 7 so. Recently IT started adding 'splits' to my walk (not me!). At random moments the screen shows split 1 or split 2. I am not sure what to do so I just click the side crown button to make it go away. I...

    iPhone Gym workout app

    I've started back in the gym but this time it is without a trainer. When I went to the gym before, I had a trainer and she kept a notebook. For each piece of equipment, she would have the settings and the weight and perhaps other notes. It also logged what exercises we did each week because...

    Watch OS 9 no longer announces rings closed and miles completed during workout

    When doing an outdoor walk workout, I used to get voice feedback on how many miles I've completed and when a ring closes (movement, exercise, etc.). After updating to watch OS 9, I no longer receive these voice feedback updates but instead get split updates and some other useless info. Does...

    About to try my hand at running now that the weather is warming up and thinking I’ll likely be doing a mix of running and walking until I get my running stamina up. Would you set your workouts to just run, just walk, or would you keep hitting the add button and switching back and forth between...

    Say for example I choose to walk rather than drive to the grocery store to grab a few things. I would start the walk workout and get to briskly stepping, then when I arrive at the grocery store I could either end the workout then start a new one when I leave, or pause and then resume when I...
