I have Polar stride sensor that is attached to my running shoes and paired with my Polar watch. The whole thing gets synced with the phone app.

Fancy! I've been reading about how important things like cadence are. Maybe I'm just looking for an excuse as to why I'm such a terrible runner lol.

I have gone through horrible hamstring strain and ended up getting gait evaluation at the run clinic. I have learned that I do suck with running technique. Did some re-learning. Kinda have to pay attention to it now. I might screw up my hammies again otherwise..

This is some next level sh$t.... what are you finding is the major difference between this and a regular HR monitor?

Doc, this one is for stride/cadence only. I don't know any other device that can catch it and I need to track it to stay injury free.

I use arm band HR monitor for the HR and I find it very accurate comparing with the chest strap HR monitor. It is just very comfortable to put it on your arm and go.

Notes
*Left side is catching up with the rows. Scapula is still lacking strength/ROM. Last rep was pathetic. Well.. I am glad I am doing the rows for this block. Good assessment tool for me..
**I've screwed up my knees a little by playing with meditation poses/longer sits over the weekend. Have to be careful now.
