It would be a big advantage for Tri-users

Hej! I just signed up to TR, started some base workout AND i am not able to sync my swims and runs with TR. Seeing this discussion back in Oct’18, this feature was on the development list. I guess, way down low priority in the backlog, as we are writing Nov’19. It is really crucial, that ALL activities are visible/synchronized. As an experienced software architect and developer an activity is activity, whether swim/bike/run/walk/sleep/whatever - it does not matter. And if it is in a backlog over a year now, it means it is NOT importand at ALL :innocent: I was really looking for a training app, that would structure my ironman workouts. It will not be TR, at least not yet.

+1, currently only holding onto my TrainingPeaks premium account so all my data is in one spot, but love the trainerroad programs. Don’t love that I either have to (a) manually input my trainerroad workouts into trainingpeaks as planned workouts or (b) live without my swim and run data being in my trainerroad calendar and having to manually click that the workout is done and update the actual TSS that I get on a workout. Please, pretty please, make this happen

Adding my plus 1 here… Can you make sure to include workouts that aren’t swims or runs as well though. As a Quadrathlete I do lots of kayak workouts as well as strength workouts such as weights, plyometrics etc.

Even if these additional disciplines on top of the swim and run workouts were only ever flagged as ā€˜Other’ that would be fine, but being able to add additonal sports would of course be a bonus.

Thanks.

This is something that is possible within the existing Calendar ecosystem :slight_smile:

When you would like to add a non-cycling workout, click on the date on the Calendar, and select ā€œAdd Other Workout.ā€

At that time, you can choose a name for the workout, and select workout type as ā€œOther.ā€

Hi Bryce,

Yep, I realise that… I was talking about syncing data from Garmin devices etc (as that is what this thread was about)…. i.e. Adding outdoor runs, swims, kayaks etc etc to the training calendar after they have been completed - not planning them in advance.

Al.

Ah I’m sorry I misunderstood, thank you for clearing that up. We’ll keep that in mind when the time comes :+1:.

I’m taking a wild guess that now that Plan Builder is out, some developers might have ā€œfreedā€ up for some work…like this

riiiiight!? :wink: :wink: :wink: :wink: :wink:

+1 to getting this feature added sooner rather than later.

Intervals.icu shows rides, runs, swims, gym, skiing and whatever else you might have been up to on Strava in its calendar. Anything with power or heart rate data also gets training load (TSS) and shows up on the /fitness chart. Nice analytics companion to TR.

as long as TR doesn’t have them in …i guess it might be a free alternative!

I second that… it is frustrating to see empty spaces in TSS during winter when I do Nordic skiing in my Trainerroad calendar…

Hmm…is there a potential manual workaround…set our runs and swims as bikes in Strava …change the type after it syncs…?

My annual training peaks renewal is about to go onto my credit card. I cancelled it in anticipation of this feature… hopefully this is done soon, I don’t want to spend $10/month when TR can do this for me!
