New Zwift Ride & Rockr Pro Pain Cave (w/Apple Watch Heart Rate)
I’m brand new to indoor cycling (only 9 months outdoor), so this is my first-ever “pain cave”, which is comprised primarily of a Zwift Ride Smart Frame, Wahoo Kickr Core trainer, Rockr Pro rocker plate, Vizio 43” 4K TV and AppleTV 4K (3rd Gen), all snugly fitted into a 72” x 36” space.

REP AB-4100 Bench Unboxing & Assembly (Tonal Bench Replacement)
มุมมอง 1.2Kปีที่แล้ว
We got the REP AB-4100 adjustable bench because my wife prefers doing incline dumbbell work vs Tonal. I was skeptical because it’s much heavier (85 lbs.) than the easily-moved Tonal bench, but its wheels and vertical storage/stand-up ability have completely won me over. Plus, the variety of pec, shoulder, bicep movements it allows is fantastic. Finally, it looks great!

      @@731Woodworks I’m a workout nerd (Tonal, treadmill, cycling), but I’m new to Zwift and have no Peloton experience, so take any input from me with the proverbial grain of salt it deserves. With that said, what I absolutely love so far about my setup is that the rocker plate really makes riding inside feel exactly like riding a real bike outdoors. My *assumption* is that Peloton doesn’t have that option(???). Also, if you have any concern about whether that front leg on the Zwift Ride is steady, I assure you it is-extremely so! If I were in the same boat as you, my primary concern would be the durability of the Zwift Ride, given that it was just released in June. Pelaton, on the other hand, has been around a long time and has an excellent reputation. However, I recall reading recently that they are struggling financially, so there could be risk on that front. I have a preference for following the Wayne Gretzky philosophy: skate to where the puck is going (not where it is). Accordingly, my best current assessment is that Peloton is the past-present, while Zwift is the present-future. Personally, I’m not into high-energy (overly-emotive) personal/class trainers, so Peloton is an easy no for me. On Zwift, I can ride (and/or run) alone at any pace I’m ready for, or in leisurely group rides with people all over the world, do training challenges, workouts, and even race (I’m not ready for that yet). And as a techie (AS, BS, MS in IT) and retired technology attorney, I can see near-endless growth & improvements coming in the future for Zwift’s virtual world(s), which seems highly unlikely for Peloton given its business model. I hope that helps. Let me know what you decide. Good luck!

On a completely different note (although I’m hesitant to even mention this), I enjoy your videos despite the fact that (here it comes) I’m an extremely progressive atheist (borderline anti-theist). Sometimes I even chuckle at your religious shirts, but in no way does it hinder the enjoyment and education I receive from the content you create. But, unlike many atheists who feel the-in my view, unnecessary-need to distance themselves from all things religious, I enjoy your videos in much the same way as I still enjoy listening to and singing Christmas songs. Indeed, the entire Christmas season is a completely delightful experience for me every year, despite the fact that I know it’s based entirely on myths (no offense intended). What matters to me are facts, logic, science, and the reality of our existence that they reflect and improve. And one part of our reality is the world-class content you create and share, as well as your utterly-watchable presentation style. In a word, FANtastic! Although you are nothing alike, if I were ranking every TH-cam creator by presentation style and watchability, you would be second only to the incomparable Doug DeMuro. Anyway, although a risky topic to raise, I thought you might be interested in knowing that your viewing audience includes at least one hardcore “unbeliever”.

      I did a test ride before the rocker arrived and I found the frame to be too stiff for my liking (compared to the natural sway of riding a real bike outdoors). Since I installed the rocker, I’ve completed the first two routes on Zwift and I’m already thrilled with the rocker. It’s so much more natural and comfortable that I already can’t imagine Zwifting without it. Highly recommended!

    • @cefrayer
      @cefrayer 4 หลายเดือนก่อน

      Generally, I think Yes is the best answer, but it depends on what level of disassembly you need. To detach the frame from the trainer is one bolt (~30 seconds), then another 30 to loosen the seat post bolt and remove it, and lastly another 60 to remove the handlebars. Zwift has an edited assembly video that will give you a good idea of what to expect, but it was a bit more difficult than they make it look.

    The input side of this coupled with the tv guide flakiness makes this not a viable solution for live tv / cable replacement. We need a native app released for the shield to be legit and functional. Direct TV Now has been pretty much an AT&T disaster since release. Its the natural evolution of TV but was not well thought through before being released for use in large markets. In my opinion using a HDHomerun OTA or a cable service is the better flexible option with live channels; and if you prefer recording use plex dvr to record your shows ongoing.

    • @cefrayer
      @cefrayer 8 ปีที่แล้ว

      I concur. However, for the forever-guaranteed $35/month price I locked in for 100+ channels--plus a mere $5 for HBO, I'm willing to give them a year to get it right, which MUST include a no-cost user-friendly cloud-based multi-channel DVR (that's quite a string of hyphenated words, Charlie). Otherwise, I'll be switching...probably to the forthcoming TH-cam TV, which I expect will launch with all of those features.

  • @cefrayer
    @cefrayer 8 ปีที่แล้ว

    No, but there are some videos on TH-cam showing how to install full Android on the Nvidia Shield. For me, the easier interim solution is to run DirecTV Now on my iPad and just AirPlay it to my Apple TV. I find that easier because controlling the app on the iPad is much easier than struggling with the HORRIBLE remote on the Apple TV 4th generation (Steve Jobs would never have let that out the door).

I also tried playing a few non-live (dead?) episodes from various networks--including ABC, Fox, and HBO, but all failed to load.

So, must click on channel name/logo for all other channels and then pick the currently program to switch to that channel. Only two interim versions left. I'll keep you updated on what I learn.
