𝐏𝐨𝐰𝐞𝐫 𝐀𝐩𝐩𝐬 – 𝐒𝐭𝐫𝐲𝐝 𝐏𝐨𝐰𝐞𝐫𝐂𝐞𝐧𝐭𝐞𝐫 / 𝐒𝐭𝐫𝐲𝐝 𝐌𝐨𝐛𝐢𝐥𝐞
The Stryd PowerCenter / Mobile app is available to anyone using a Stryd footpod (most features are free, some need a subscription).
It calculates and displays some (but not all) of the most important metrics.

In the following, the term ‘Stryd’ includes Stryd PowerCenter and Stryd Mobile
✅ Threshold Power. Stryd uses the term ‘Critical Power’ (CP) and offers an automatically calculated CP (Auto-CP) as well as a manually-set CP (using various protocols).
✅ Stress Score. Stryd uses the term ‘Running Stress Score’ (RSS) and offers a unique calculation which includes a term representing the additional biomechanical stress put on your body from running (vs. cycling).
✅ Stress Balance. Stryd uses the term ‘Running Stress Balance’ (RSB) and offers guidance for how to interpret your RSB.
❌ Ramp Rate. Stryd does not show your Ramp Rate (RR). You’ll need to calculate RR manually using Stryd’s 42d Avg (in Stryd Mobile) or use another system to track this.
❌ Running Effectiveness. Stryd does not show your Running Effectiveness (RE). You’ll need to calculate RE manually using another system, or use one of Stryd’s alternate metrics – for example Form Power, Leg Spring Stiffness, Impact Loading Rate.

The Stryd ecosystem is probably the most power-friendly app at the moment, designed with power in mind, and aimed at runners who are getting started with power.
‘Getting Started’ covers systems that can calculate the missing metrics, while the book’s online content provides a more complete comparison of Stryd vs. other Power Apps.
