Anleitung | Wahoo Fitness Android App

Wahoo Fitness

The Wahoo Fitness app is specially designed to bring Wahoo Fitness hardware sensors in contact with mobile devices.

The app supports most Bluetooth 4.0+ compliant Android devices running Android version 4,4 KitKat or newer.

Hinweis: as Android devices vary widely, compatibility cannot be assured for all devices matching this description. Please download and install the Wahoo Fitness app from the Google Play Store before purchasing a Wahoo Fitness product to ensure compatibility.

Summary / Home Page

The Home Page functions as the launchpad for all workout related activity and displays a summary for the period of the previous 4 weeks. The summary outlines the number of workouts performed, distance travelled and time spent during workout sessions.

When the Wahoo Fitness app is opened for the first time, a wizard will step through the process of pairing a sensor, setting up as a user and getting the first workout started.

The menu of options from the Home Page are as follows:

Top menu from left to right: History, Saved Devices, Profiles.
Settings button: User details, Heart rate training, Sharing, Info+Help.
Workout menu: Workout selector, New Workout, Edit Workout Settings

Saved Devices

The Saved Devices icon will display the Saved Devices menu, listing all sensors that have been paired with your device. From this screen you can review or modify the settings for a given paired sensor, add a new sensor, shop for additional sensors, remove (forget) saved sensors.

The following Wahoo Fitness sensors are currently available:

KICKR - indoor cycling trainer
TICKR - heart rate monitor
TICKR Run - heart rate monitor
TICKR X - heart rate monitor
RFLKT - bike computer
RFLTK+ - bike computer
RPM - cadence sensor
Blue SC - speed and cadence sensor

Adding a New Sensor/Pairing your device to the Wahoo Fitness app (more specific information is included with each sensor device):

Laden Sie die Wahoo Fitness-App vom Google Play Store herunter.
Öffnen Sie die Wahoo Fitness-App. Make sure you have Bluetooth turned on.*
Wake up your sensor device.
Select “Saved Devices” in the top right corner (located between the History and the Profiles buttons).

If there is a tutorial for the sensor, this will be available now. Use the Back button to exit when done.
Use the Back button to exit the menus and return to the Home Screen

HINWEIS: Always use the app to pair your sensor device unless otherwise advised.

Workout

The Summary/Home Page enables new Workouts to be initiated and recorded.

To Start a New Workout:

Stellen Sie sicher, dass Bluetooth in dem Gerät aktiviert ist, damit es mit Ihrem sensor(s). kommunizieren kann.
Wählen Sie mit dem Schieberegler in der Liste aus, welche Art von Workout Sie machen möchten.
Use the Pencil icon to edit your workout if changes are required.
Drücken Sie die grüne „Wiedergabe“-Taste, um eine neue Trainingseinheit zu öffnen.
Make sure the sensor(s) you plan to use are awake and paired to your device (view linked sensors using the Sensor icon in the top right corner).
Wählen Sie die grüne „Start“-Taste, um mit der Trainingseinheit zu beginnen.

WÄHREND EINES WORKOUTS:

To Pause your Workout: Once a workout has started, the green “Start” button will change to become a red “Pause” button. Use this button to pause the workout at any time or to finish your workout.
Anzeige der Bildschirmansicht Workout: Wischen sie nach links bzw. rechts, um die Bildschirmansichten für die jeweilige Trainingsart zu wechseln. Die Position der Bildschirmansichten wird durch die blaue Linie angezeigt (oberhalb der Runden-Taste). Die Bildschirmansicht links neben dem Startbildschirm ermöglicht ein GPS-Tracking (falls verfügbar). Die Ansichten rechts sind individuell einstellbar und zeigen die Daten, die Sie für dieses Workout anzeigen lassen möchten.
Verwendung des KICKR: Wischen Sie nach rechts, bis zum Bildschirmende, um die Seite KICKR zu sehen. Auf dieser Seite wird Ihr Workout angezeigt und Sie können den KICKR steuern. Abhängig von Ihren Präferenzen gibt es vier Optionen:
- Level-Modus: Mit den Tasten „-“ und “+“ wechseln Sie die Leistungskurve. Je höher die Zahl, desto stärker die Steigung, maximal 4,5 % möglich. Diese Option ist vergleichbar mit dem Prinzip eines Fluid- oder Windtrainers: je schneller, desto schwerer.
- Widerstandsmodus: Mit den Tasten „-“ und „+“ ändern Sie den Widerstand. Je höher die Zahl, desto höher der Widerstand, aber maximal 100 %. Diese Option lässt sich mit der Einstellung der Bremse an einem stationären Rad vergleichen. Unabhängig von der Geschwindigkeit bleibt die Bremse in dieser Position, bis sie verändert wird.
- ERG-Modus: Mit den Tasten „+“ und „-“ wählen Sie die gewünschte Ausgangsleistung. Mit dieser Option erhöht/reduziert man den Widerstand des KICKR, um eine konstante Ausgangsleistung zu erreichen, unabhängig der Geschwindigkeit. Beispiel: Wenn Ihre Trittfrequenz sinkt, erhöht sich der Widerstand, um dieselbe Ausgangsleistung zu erhalten.
- Sim-Modus: Geben Sie die Steigung (Grad), Windgeschwindigkeit (Gegenwind) und Ihren Fahrradtyp ein, um eine Leistungskurve zu simulieren, die den Faktoren einer Outdoor-Fahrt gleichzusetzen sind. Ensure that your weight and tire size has been set up in order to ensure accurate power calculations (Wheel Circumference is accessible in the Saved Sensors>KICKR menu, your weight in the Settings>My Details menu).

To Start a New Lap:

The black “Lap” button located at the bottom left corner of the screen will initiate a new lap. Tap once to begin a new lap & a summary of the previous lap results will be displayed. This will dismiss automatically after 5 seconds, or you can dismiss the results early by selecting “Dismiss” at the bottom of the window.

Music:

Select the music icon from the top right corner to select music during your workout.

To Finish a Workout:

Select the red “Pause” button from the bottom right side of the screen. Once paused, the red “Stop” button will replace the “Lap” button on the bottom left side of the screen. Select “Stop” and you will be prompted to stop (exit) or cancel to return to your workout. The summary of your workout will now be displayed. Select “Workout details” or use the Back button to exit. Use the “Share” button to export your workout to another app. To view the workout again, or view another, return to the History menu to peruse all stored workouts.
