  1. As mentioned already by a few, it's still soo easy to achieve the targets and get to gold so why bother stressing about it. I got to Gold on the 21st and have met every goal since Mid Dec. Pointless for us cyclists to add more drama to Disco for now. Let the people who are struggling to meet their goals take up the battle with Disco.
  2. Quick and easy... Well done. 1800 more for me, so will be done on Saturday.
  3. A problem with Disco systems I believe, had the problem twice already.
  4. I don't think it matters anymore what the goal is as it's become just soo easy to achieve. Mine was 1100 and I am done for the week with just 1 ride.
  5. it takes the higher of the points for the day, not the one that you did first. There is probably another problem hidden somewhere. I have not had any problems recently with Garmin connect and strava for my runs.
  6. Nope its not about the Vitality thing, I check it every 6-12 months, and my last reading was 3.6 early last year. Since then, My diet has greatly improved, my weight has gone down by 15kg. I don't eat oily foods or fried stuff, fast foods maybe once a month. So thats why I am surprised.
  7. 8700 needed to get to Gold. just did my Health checks now and my cholesterol is high at 6.6 I am quite surprised at this, as my diet does not consist of fatty foods, oils, eggs and seafood - [i am vegetarian] So now I need to do a Lipogram test to check wtf is going on.
  8. So there's a problem again with Disco systems, voucher codes are not working at Kauai and has been the case since yesterday... Have 1 that expires today which means I lose out...
  9. numbers are slowly getting better... as of this morning 222w 2.41w/kg
  10. this is the 1 things I messed up... will wait another year
  11. Thanks Myles for a more in depth understanding of the life policy. I took mine out last year and had an initial saving of like r180 as I was already on gold. Will go through docs again tomorrow for a better understanding on terms and cash back.
  12. really like this image, well done !!
  13. Not yet, planning to do my fitness test and health checks at the end of Jan. Ideally at a Disco wellness centre but the nearest 1 for me in Durban is 35km away... Reason for delay, need to get my weight and waist down a bit to score the bonus points.
  14. 1 question on Team Vitality Cycling, regarding the Garmin voucher, how does it work and what items can it be used for? Can I get a Forerunner watch as I already have an Edge510?
  15. you guys are pushing big numbers... I am sitting on 211w - 2.3w/kg - last test done mid Dec. eish, lotsa work to do this year if I wanna be able to do any sub 3 -100km races. will test again end Jan.
  16. 1 of the reasons I have not purchased a Stages yet. I don't think I will get any beneficial use when on the road as I just don't have the roads in my area to allow me to do repeats of any sort. I do have a Cycleops Fluid2 and train on that with virtual power which I quite enjoy.
  17. just send discovery vitality a message on FB or an email and they will process this manually. Had the same issue and they sorted it out, together with my workouts from last week so I have now achieved last weeks goal also. For me, the system seems to be working much better this week, points are showing within seconds after uploads via Garmin connect.
  18. try Endomondo with ANT+ HRM, and then upload the GPX file to Strava. You can choose indoor workout so the GPS should not affect any data
  19. 2 hours+ of vigorous exercise will get you 3000 points.
  20. Garmin connect to Strava and both to discovery, points show within minutes.
  21. Yeah easy as pie... Also got the 3000 for a 104km ride this morning, and it showed on Discovery app within minutes after upload.
  22. 11500 points in the bag already, race to gold is on ! Whats absolutely frustrating to me is unstable interchange with the active rewards points. I have 4, yes FOUR workouts from this past week that does not show. I should be well over my goal but now sitting 200 points short and I have no intention on doing anything today. If they cannot sort this out, then trying to getting the watch for free is going to prove to be challenging as we may fall short because of their system issues. I'm not going to burn myself out week after week for this if it doesnt work.
