See power calculations for more details. Another way to look at this is every 15cm removed from a riders height is like adding 5 10 watts of power in terms of speed increase. If i change the total weight of the bike under gear it will adjust my wattage for all my past rides too. Ive changed my weight a couple of times on zwift and strava but its never moved on zwift power. This continues to look like a missing part of data that has an important effect on performance. Hover over your profile picture on the top right of the window.
To get calorie calculations for rides strava uses your power output and a coefficient for human efficiency. As you all know we can enter our weight but. Log in to your account on strava. I assumed it would change when syncing with strava but that doesnt seem to be the case at least not for me. Power can be estimated if you enter your weight and the weight of your bike or you can use a power meter to get a more accurate measure of your power output. Id like to update my strava records with my weight as it was.
Can anyone explain why that might be please. Where do we track that. So i add a bike it has a field for weight i enter 27 lbs for my touring bike now when i ride around the city unloaded those wattage numbers are more accurate now i take my bike out over the weekend and i add 20 lbs. Click on settings from the drop down menu. You cant declare the date the weight was taken.
