Almost there - still has a flaw to fix or a feature to add

First, I’m a huge fan of almost all of the Lolo Fitness apps….well worth the money. The BeatBurn series is sequence of progressively more difficult interval-based workouts. The Elliptical and Treadmill apps are very similar and very good. The most major flaw (in my opinion) is that you cannot customize your app to match the actual indoor cycling bike that you’re on. This app doesn’t work very well on indoor spinning bikes (which is more based on feel of the resistance, as opposed to an actual resistance or gear level). The BeatBurn Elliptical allows you to set the app to match the specific resistance range of the elliptical machine that you’re on. You can adjust this in the app settings….16 levels or 20 or 30 levels of resistance (depending on the brand name). You cannot do this within this cycling app. I believe the app is completely based on 20 levels of resistance (or gears). I love using this app on my Trek racing bike when I’m outside, but it doesn’t transfer very well when I’m using an indoor bike at the YMCA. Some indoor bikes have 16; others have 30 or so on. It would be nice if this BeatBurn Cycling app could match the same feature to adjust resistance levels as the same Elliptical app. This seems like a quick fix, so I hope the folks at Lolo Fitness can get this updated soon. The second major flaw (and this goes across all three BeatBurn cardio apps) is that I would like to see Lolo Fitness add in a longer, “tempo” workout every 4-5 workouts. Even on the 45-60min workout settings, most intervals are (at most) 2-3 minutes in length. I would like Lolo Fitness to throw in some longer, “slow burn” and tempo workouts where you have intervals that are 5-10 minutes in length on the longer 45 or 60 minute workouts. It’s very difficult switching gears on your outdoor bike (or indoor trainer) every minute or adjusting the treadmill every minute. It would be nice if a workout (about 1-2x a week) would incorporate a longer, steady-state workout where the intervals were 5-10 minutes in length….this would allow the user to find their tempo while in that longer interval (great for time trialing practice) or more like real-life road running. Just a couple of suggestions.
