Saga vs SkiEr

The application is a comprehensive tool designed to assist athletes and coaches in the meticulous planning, execution, and analysis of blood lactate testing protocols specifically for running and cycling activities. Its core objective is to streamline the process of determining an athlete's lactate inflection point (LIP) or lactate threshold, a critical indicator of endurance performance and metabolic efficiency.

Your SkiErg, reimagined as a 3D Nordic ski race. SkiEr connects to your SkiErg over Bluetooth and turns every pull into movement on snow. Your skier double-poles in time with your real stroke, harder pulls look harder, and the trail rolls on through forests, frozen lakes, glaciers and mountain passes.

SKI TOGETHER Switch on Ski together and everyone on your trail appears on screen, live, with the gap to each skier. Join a friend on the open trail and you start right beside them. When nobody else is out, a fast and a steady pace partner keep you company. You appear under a made-up skier name, and nothing is stored. FIND YOUR FTP (SKIER PRO) A 20-minute all-out test finds your functional threshold power. Your effort zones then scale to you, so "tempo" means your tempo. RACE YOUR PERSONAL BEST A ghost skier replays your best time on the route, so you can see exactly where you're ahead and where to push. A SKIER THAT MOVES WITH YOU A modern race double pole that follows your real stroke. On a Concept2 PM5 it uses the monitor's own stroke timing, and with an Apple Watch it follows your arms on any machine. The pole plant lands as you pull, and the crunch deepens as your watts rise. LIVE HEART RATE FROM APPLE WATCH Wear your watch and SkiEr opens on it when you start, streaming live heart rate to the workout screen and your heart-rate zones. A chest strap paired to your SkiErg's monitor works too.
