After reading through this thread I’m none the wiser. Is recording a strength activity on my Garmin watch (cumbersome) any better than entering the working sets manually? I know you get HR data from the watch, but that’s wrist based and in my opinion not that accurate when lifting.
TR only wants you to log sets you do to failure. Your Garmin will record all/any strength activity.
Thanks, I’ll not bother with the watch then. Just for clarification, if say I do five sets of five squats, first three are straightforward, but the last two sets are a real effort to complete , if I understand this correctly, I just enter the last two sets into TrainerRoad?
FWIW, I log my strength workouts in an app (Hevy) but in the past I’ve struggled to balance strength and intervals on the bike, so I’m curious to see the effect of using the TrainerRoad system to see if it helps me cope better balancing both activities. Thanks for your reply.
