This app is available for free. If you find it useful or like it, please buy me a cup of coffee. https://buymeacoffee.com/alex.kim ### Description TS Cadence Coach helps you hold a target cadence (180 spm by default) while you run. It works with the watch alone, no extra sensor needed. ■ Screen - Top gauge: target ±2 is the green band at 12 o'clock (11 to 1 o'clock, range values such as 178 / 182 at its ends), slower to the left (red), faster to the right (blue) - Big cadence without unit in the state colour (green on target, orange-red slow, blue fast) - One tip line: Quick short arms / Light quick feet / Stride X.XX m / uphill, downhill / praise - Stride (speed ÷ cadence, measured when a sensor is present) and heart rate - On AMOLED watches: 3D bands, glowing number and glass panels (MIP watches get the same layout, drawn flat) ■ Alerts - Below target (5-second average) for 10 seconds: big message for 3 seconds + one vibration, then every 30 seconds while still slow. Above target is shown on screen only (blue), no buzz - No alerts in the first minute of the activity; a short vibration when you are back on target after an alert - No judging while walking, stopped or auto-paused - The app records whether a rhythm tip raised your cadence and shows the tips that work for you first ■ How to use 1. Running activity - Settings - Data Screens - a one-field layout - Connect IQ - TS Cadence Coach. 2. Pick a target mode in the phone settings: fixed 180 (default) / step up (start at 175, +1 next run when you hold it, up to 180) / fixed 185 / 190. 3. Start the timer and run. ■ Garmin Connect fields - Target cadence reached (%) — share of running time at or above the target - Target cadence (spm) - Avg cadence minus target (spm) - Avg stride (m) - Rhythm tip success (%) — share of rhythm tips this run that raised your cadence - Cadence minus target (chart, spm) - Lap target reached (% per lap) ■ Settings (Connect IQ phone app) Target mode, vibrate on coaching alerts, alerts on other data screens (off by default), language (auto / 8 languages) ■ Notes - The cadence target is a general guide; raise your cadence gradually.
