I’m scheduled to do Goddard tomorrow and I have two questions. First yoou need to know Im working out in ERG mode… On a vortex But one this particular workout I wonder how you guys manage it. The 30 seconds ramp up at VO2max… They’re supposed to be form sprints. However when I do forms sprins eg…

Any time you do form sprints your power will spike as you accelerate the flywheel. I think it’s just the way it goes. This will be minimized if you use a low gear as the absolute acceleration of the flywheel is reduced significantly…

I do all my workouts in ERG mode and have learned to spin up on the VO2 max intervals without overdoing the cadence (keep it around 8-10 rpms higher). Works out much better if you keep your cadence under control. Good luck.

Really wish there was a way to do this quickly on mobile without going pausing the workout and going into into your sensor settings.

We have an open Feature Request for it submitted.

Any update on this feature request?

Nothing to confirm other than they have the request: Disabling erg mode in the mobile app ERG Mode On or Off Button Please (Feature Request)
