Soccer

I’m using my Vivoactive 4 to track my soccer training outcomes.

I read somewhere that it is best to use “Indoor Running” activity for soccer sessions as the GPS mode would be too inaccurate.

so I did that and whilst I’m a relatively fit 41year old playing amateur league, I found my max speed of 32.6 km/hr rather incredulous given Kylian Mbappe’s top speed is only 36 km/hr!

anyone has any tips for how to improve accuracy of data for soccer training?

thanks in advance !

Indoor running is based on step counter and stride length. After a treadmill session, I am asked to confirm how far I actually ran, so the stride length can be calibrated. My candence (step frequency) does not change enough with running pace. If I jog really slow, the watch thinks I am running faster than I really do. If I sprint at maximum speed, the watch thinks I am running slower than I am.

Have a look at this app: https://apps.garmin.com/en-US/apps/1d68ae88-0874-4f7b-80e3-b1ee87dc571e
