Garmin recently updated some of their Forerunner devices to enable users to enter Self Evaluation data during the save of the activity just completed. Two values are asked for: perceived effort (scale: 0-10) and how you felt (5 point scale from Very Weak to Very Stong).

These seem to map directly to what TrainingPeaks has had as an activity setting for years already.

Is there any plan in place to automatically set the values in TrainingPeaks during sync of activity data from Garmin Connect?

This sure would make life easier for TrainingPeaks users who are also Garmin device users (a large user set I suspect). I do realize that this is dependent upon Garmin exposing that information in either the .TCX or .FIT files/data that is transferred during sync operations between TrainingPeaks and Garmin Connect.

I'm a TrainingPeaks/WKO5 coach and athlete user and have been using a WHOOP 3.0 strap for the past 6 months.

I love the opportunity to sync with TP and be able to graph the HRV, sleep times and so forth and compare with performance.

I often find though that the recovery score that covers both sleep, hrv and other factors is more in line with my performance that HRV as a stand alone metric. Therefor, I'd love to be able to graph the recovery score as metric.

It seems like a very basic thing to add and could perhaps take the place of the "restwise score" which I think no one uses any more - I'm hopeful it can be done momentarily.

Thank you,

When cycling, outside or in Zwift, the activity may be recorded on multiple devices (e.g. Zwift, Garmin Edge, Polar Vantage, etc.).
These devices record from different sensors, e.g. Zwift might record power from my trainer, "virtual GPS" and elevation, while Garmin Edge records from my power meter as well as my glucose sensor (through Nightscout).
Now the information is spread across multiple files which are imported one by one.
The result is that WKO5 believes I have exercised a lot more than I actually have, and I struggle to create dashboards that merge the information from all files of a particular workout. For example, for the Zwift race I did yesterday, I now have one file from Polar, one from Garmin and three from Zwift. And since they all contain different/complementary information, I don't want to delete any of them, I want to merge them...

It should be quite easy to detect that they happened at the same time and that parts of the data (e.g. the heart rate) is identical and can be used to sync the files with each other, while other information is only in one of the files and should be kept.

Sorry if this has already been requested, I found multiple "merge" or "duplicate" requests but not really covering this use case. Still, I think I'm not the only trainingpeaks user with this issue, having recordings from multiple sources and wanting to keep some information from each of them into a merged one...

Equipment can be tracked and setup of the available equipment is available in the settings.

Currently shoes and bikes can be added/tracked.

As a triathlete I do own quite a lot seperate wheels sets and use combinations of wheel sets and frames.
I'd love to track the mileage of each wheel set to be ahead of wear and tear. I think this is quite an important safety aspect, too.

I recommend to add a third option for wheel sets to the equipment settings.

My current workaround is to add the wheel sets as "shoes" and only track the frames (with option "bike") and the wheels (with option "shoes") for workouts. Biking shoes are not tracked though which is the only downside of this.

Another option is to setup several bikes each with a different frame/wheel set combination. However, having 7 frames and even more wheel sets this would extend the list to quite an extend and make things complicated to pick and choose. It is not my preferred option.

WHAT
TrainingPeaks users should have the ability to import workouts from the TrainHeoric app.

WHO
TrainingPeaks is used by endurance and multi-sport athletes, while TrainHeroic caters to weightlifters and strength users. Some of us are both!

TrainingPeaks and TrainHeroic are both owned & operated by Peaksware Holdings, LLC.

HOW
TrainingPeaks users could have a breakdown of their strength-based training similar to that of the current Workout Editor feature. This could also be as simple as a pre-activity comment or activity description of reps/sets for each workout.

WHY
There needs to be some way to users to keep track of their strength exercises and sets/reps without extensive manual input. Currently, users employ individual activity comments for note-taking, or upload PDFs and word documents for every single day of their programming.

hey folks - really enjoying the notes feature as makes it clear when my athletes need to read up on something - but a couple of suggestions to make it really "pop"

Can you make it possible to add a note to the workout catalog - as there are lots of reusable notes I would love to save to drag/drop to an athlete's calendar when it is relevant to them

Make it possible to use notes in off the shelf training plans - currently use "other" icon to indicate key blogs, relevant phase in the plan etc - and athletes often email me when strength workouts inadvertantly sync with such notes

I'm on the premium trial and I'm pretty impressed at the PMC chart. I'd like to check back on it from time to time but the 15 day trial is a tad short to get much from it, since the changes are fairly long term.

I wouldn't get enough from premium since I'm already using other tools to do some of the things that TP does and at the moment it's out of my budget.

Would it be possible to have a billing system that charges for features separately? e.g. I want to look at a PMC graph once or twice a month, and I'd gladly pay a buck or two to generate it.

A semi-premium mode that lets you check/uncheck what you need and bill you accordingly (e.g. Updated PMC, peak performances but no planning or detailed maps) would also be amazing.
