This is the future we were warned about…
That’s what big brothers are for ![]()
As long as you don’t turn 38 this year

This thread is hilarious… if you are concerned about people spying on you, you shouldn’t post ANYTHING to strava. LOL!!!
On the other hand… I did feel self conscious about how low my Sprint, Anaerobic and VO2 progression levels were compared to endurance, tempo, SS, and TH. HAHA!!
@Nate_Pearson just did a workout and it uploaded two images to Strava. The pictures are exactly the same.
I don’t give $0.02 about this whole mess but your responsiveness is beyond impressive.
Yep. That’s me. I hate the feature. Pretty useless information for those not on TR. and not info I want to share.
I just everything to private and moved on.
Random thought, perhaps already mentioned, would it be more appropriate/better received to only show the PL for the specific workout.
i.e. I’m thinking I’d much rather see the little celebration image with say SS 9->10 than the whole range of PL’s which are unaffected by the workout.
Ah yes, we could do something specific for FTP changes. We don’t have plans to do that. We feel like people don’t like to share that in general.
I was really taken aback when my workouts suddenly started including these images. Not to disparage the work that went into this feature but this is absolutely something you should have asked permission for. Not everyone wants to share that kind of information.
Really liked everything TrainerRoad has been doing, except this! Really surprised to see the progression levels in Strava and deleted the image right away. I don’t want to share this.
Thanks @Nate_Pearson for reacting quickly and making it possible to revert. All good again ![]()
I feel like there are very vocal people against sharing it (see this thread) but I also feel like there are people like me who would want to show off our progress but probably less strong of a feeling vs the other side. So maybe best as an opt in setting? Xert adds " [
Xert Bronze Breakthrough!]" to my activities
Still think this is a low priority feature but does make it easier for others to see why all my rides in the winter are in trainer road. If I had to pick a feature I want, it would be for tr to record hrv during exercise so it can calculate alpha 1 dfa and hopefully show if that data can help train the model to help with the intensity you should ride at. Ftp in the image is way less important
We should be done with people sharing private information on social media concerned about their private information being shared on social media now.
Except for those who haven’t found the two selection boxes yet. That should last another week or two.
This has happened to me a couple of times in the past two weeks, too.
Looks like there’s a bug where we do duplicate strava image uploads. We’re looking into the cause now.
@fidracer When was the first time it happened to you?
@Nate_Pearson The first time was Jan 12. It happened again on Jan 18 and Jan 27.
FWIW my sister had workouts Jan 12, 18, and 20th with single image. Next workout was this morning (Jordan, at 8:51 MST) and it came over to Strava at 0min and 0sec and had double images. Reason she stopped - Hammer-to-LAPTOP Bluetooth connection was misbehaving, or something, so she quit workout and then removed Hammer from her iPhone’s Bluetooth. Then started the same workout at 9 MST, and the second workout has single image on Strava.
Happened to me on Friday Jan 28
The progression levels image shows the increase associated with the workout (i.e. when you do a productive or higher workout). What happens if your FTP changes (ramp test or the soon to be released FTP estimate feature)? Does everything drop down to 1.0?
Assuming it does silently reset to 1.0’s, my question is how will this be of value to Strava followers or for my own historic tracking?
I’m on the fence whether I quickly disable this as soon as I can or keep it. I guess I’m wondering if it is noise or meaningful.
I had the opposite happen to me. No image uploaded to Strava following my TR workout.
