Elevation as a Weekly Goal / Targets

It would be helpful to be able to set total elevation gain (or climbing), as a goal for the week for different activities.

I agree, I like to do a certain amount of elevation every week/month.

I have added that to the todo list. Tx.

Another good option would be to have totals in the Activities > List view which would help here. This way you could look at a time period of choice weekly, monthly, custom etc elevation totals for Activity type.

See screenshot i.e. cycling elevation in August shown. Could also be good for other fields, but some might be better as average or maximum, i.e. max heart rate showing the max heartrate for the time period, and others may be better for average, like HRRc, that way you could easily see if your HRRc is below or above average for certain activities within the time period.

Hi guys I made a chart that you can customise that I am using in the interim.

I have shared it to public and it is called cycling elevation. I have set it for 30 day rolling total and my target elevation.

You can change it to 7 day and add your target elevation.

Cheers

Hi Wazc23, where can I find this chart? Sorry if this common knowledge, I am new to Intervals ICU and still need to learn alot. Thanks!

Fitness page - Options. Click on the looking glass Chart button and search for elevation. @Wazc23 's chart should show up for selection.

Just here to say I would also like this.

Any news on this topic ?

Thanks !

How do you add the target elevation, I assume you type the figure in somewhere, but I can’t see where

With existing charts I’ve managed only to have one showing elevation gain from last 365 day as a horizontal line and then weekly elevation gain as bars. It’s nice but I would welcome an option to have something more like Strava’s goals, where you can set a specific goal, e.g. gain X elevation meters in a year, and with that you are able to see each week if your meeting the goal week by week or are you behind/in front of the plan. I found it quite useful and entertaining at the same time. Sadly no other platform seems to offers similar way to track set goals.

somehow I believe this is doable if you know javascript.
There’s already a totals page, while you can’t get th weekbyweek stuffs (tho i think this is also doable to be tracked and plotted in the fitness page)

I’m not proficient in javascript so I can’t be offer much help.

Is there any documentation how one makes these things? I have never dived deeper in this topic but JS is no problem for me, so I assume it must be then doable.

Edit: never mind, I have found the place in the UI and the thread on the forum how a custom chart can be implemented. Perhaps in next few day I’ll try it out and see how far I can get towards what yi have described as a goal in my previous post.

After reading other threads regarding available data for making custom charts and streams I came to the conclusion that it’s not possible at the moment as there is no data about total elevation for a given time period and without it such goal tracking chart can’t be implemented.

This is about the closest I can get to with the standard charts in a quick first try:

This example breaks up in three months parts, 10000 m per 3 months. Nothing stops you to do this per month. Per week might be a bit overloaded but you get the idea.

I do think it should be possible to do more with JS.

Could you get me more insides how you were able to construct such a chart? Especially with those split on every month.

Edit: ok, now I see this possibility to make custom backgrounds. I think it some kind helpful, although it seems to be time consuming if I need to set all limits by hand after doing the math first :slightly_smiling_face:.

Was going to respond but you figured it out already :wink:
I agree that it is a bit time consuming and it is also depending on the chosen time frame, but it was something I quickly threw together.

This still on to do list? It would also be interesting, apart from ‘elevation’, to be able to add monthly and annual goals. Thanks for all the work.

I 2nd this. Its been on the todo for 3 years, would it be possible to add this soon. Can’t imagine it would be too much work right?

He’s working on an annual plan. I believe that would get incorporated somehow
