Enode Pro - VBT

Pros + records workouts + data seems accurate and the 1rm is usually close to what I can do on a good day Cons: - it can miss reps - it’s not great when you try to do single sided movements on both sides - the part of the ui that you need when you’re going through your sets can be hidden quite easily which can be annoying - it will miss count some movements like RDLs (it will count the first rep with you lift the bar off the floor) - navigating the historic data is challenging and to me it’s hard to see what you’ve done

Also garbage programming interface. Horribly unintuitive and confusing. Sounds don’t work. I wish there was a notification for rep goal reached. I wish there was a notification or countdown for rest periods ending. So expensive. Such a total letdown in every way. And this is just for deadlifts! I actually had hopes I could use this for bodyweight calisthenics too. Not a chance. Also very annoying that it needs to be recalibrated constantly. In 5 directions. Can’t just leave it on the bar. Can’t even leave the strap on the bar because the velcro goes over top the sensor holder. So you have to undo the velcro every time. Even if you could just leave the sensor on the bar, the indicator light is hidden behind the retention strap so you have no idea that the battery is dead til you’ve sat there staring at the app for 30sec like an idiot. I’ve been trying to give this a chance for a year now. I pull it back out every couple months hoping some hardware/software update will magically make it awesome. I want it to work soooo bad. This has the potential to be the most useful workout tool ever created. But it falls so short. Beyond frustrating.

I really want to love this bar tracker/app, but it misses at least a third of my work set reps.
