It looks like the standard cycling FTP is used for all activities.
I setup an lower Indoor FTP but the indoor rides still uses the normal FTP?
Is it logged as an Indoor or Virtual ride? If not, Normal FTP will be used.
Hi there,
What I basically try to do is using the powerdata of the concept2 rower by an app rowedbiker, that is then imported as a virtual ride.
I then set it to a rowing activity, but keep seeing the normal cycling power zones, also the training load is calculated using the normal cycling FTP. See also screenshots attached.
I would really like to have the zones and training load correct, there is quite a gap between cycling ftp and rowing ftp.
What am I doing wrong?
I think you will need to click on “Activiteiten Bijwerken” to make sure the activity is recalculated with the Rowing settings.
If you would use “Reprocess original file”, it will probably revert to a Virtual Cycling activity. If you don’t recalculate, the results from the first processing will remain.
If you never do Virtual Rides (cycling), you could probably attribute the Virtual Ride directly to the Rowing sport and remove it in the Cycling sport on the settings page. Then it will directly use the Row sport settings. You can then change the sport type without having to reprocess.
I see the app creates a cycle/run workout in Zwift, even though you’re rowing. As @MedTechCD said, you would need to change your workout type after you upload, or if you don’t run then use the running option instead.
I changed your 3rd August row to “Virtual Row” and changed the FTP to 265 (should trigger re-analysis). You have to manually change the FTP once it is set from cycling on the initial import. You could try using another tool to change the sport to ROWING and sub sport to INDOOR_ROWING before uploading to Intervals.icu. I don’t know a tool to do that but sure there must be one somewhere.
Thanks all for the great support, I will just change the ftp settings for now.
