Hi,
New user here and loving the site and the ability to create workouts that transfer to Garmin device. Also a beginner using a power meter and all the data that is available so apologies if this has been answered before and I’m making a newb mistake.
I created a Low dose Lactate Threshold Interval Workout (3x 5m 90-95% 90s recoveries, and 3x 6m 90-95% 2m recoveries) on .icu which I did outside, keeping my ave power at 200w ±5w (NP 203,202,205,197,205,201 (Ave Pwr and NP were within a couple of watts)) for each of the 5 and 6min intervals. This showed on both Garmin Connect and Strava however .icu had 193,172,188,161,173,190w for the laps. Why would there be such a discrepancy?
I had to cross some roads during some of the intervals which would naturally bring the power to 0 approaching but I never came to a stop. Using a single pedal F.A. Uno power meter which I calibrated at the start of the ride.
I did a 20m FTP test outside last week which gave the same power readings on both Garmin and .icu.
Cheers
Tom
Tx. Strava uses lap data that doesn’t map back to the power data trace. I think it comes from the device itself. Intervals.icu uses the power data to calculate stats for the intervals and then this doesn’t match. It has to be this was because Intervals.icu allows you to edit the intervals.
The interval times look like they are out of sync with the work you did. This also happens sometimes. You best bet is to manually create them. I have just done that.
Thank you.
Next job for myself is to learn how to do that.
Cheers
Tom
came to post this as well, can’t figure out how to edit the intervals just yet either!
EDIT: Seems to match up way better once I hit “Strava Sync” with my data, not sure if that helps you Tom!
