Garmin connect widget

ur chart only shows up to 2nd Sept… plot one w/ until end of the week… sunday.

or until next week, better if you have planned workouts for the next week

sorry, I’m a little confused with what we’re trying to find now

Date As Is 7 Day
Today (Fri 2) -0.6 -3.1
Sat 3 -0.6 -2.4
Sun 4 -3.2 -2.2
Mon 5 -3.1 -1.9

Interesting…

Fitness Page:
AS IS (today) -1.1. (Sunday) 0.8
7DRAMP (today) -1.1 (Sunday) 4.9

You can see the Divergent after today. (Sunday I have a planned 221 DailyLoad)

Activities Page:
Ramp = 4.9

I’ve been having a play adding manual activities with various loads and it seems what the watch shows is the ‘as is’ value for the sunday of the week (albeit with differing rounding now and then)

I think ramp should always be ‘as is’ because it’s just this weeks fitness - same day last week, not sure why 7d is default on custom charts

worth doing the fitness differences to see what it should be for today and sunday

The watch app takes the ramp from the intervals.icu API. It doesn’t do any additional calculation on that figure. The figure the API provides is from the user’s profile, and I believe it represents the ramp for the week, so the figure as it will be on the last day of the current week.

Which API path is that?

I’ve checked /api/v1/athlete/%s/wellness? and the sunday figure does match that of the watch and /api/v1/athlete/34946614/athlete-summary?

I’m assuming you didn’t use athlete summary as that has fit&fat for week-end rather than today’s

Love this app, got real potential

My requests are:

  • new page for last activity:
    • elapsed time
    • distance
    • avg speed
    • avg power
    • avg HR
    • norm power
    • load
    • calories or work done
  • ramp as today not sunday’s

With the first one ideally it would match the user’s preferences for units as API is in metres but I’d prefer miles

I’ve thought about making a garmin app but never looked into it, if you think there’s anything I could help with let me know, I’m familiar with APIs, R, Python and a little JS

Thanks Ben. I probably would not do anything with the last activity, because I am trying to avoid duplicating information that is already available on your garmin watch. Is there a use case where you couldn’t see all of that information in your garmin activity history anyway?

I only record about 10% of my activities on garmin, most are virtual or wahoo

big use case would be when sat on zwift between sessions I can see my load for the last one to see how much I have remaining to hit my target

Yeah fair enough. You can link zwift to garmin to get all of the activities sync’d. Wahoo is a problem though, I now record on both my watch and my wahoo to make sure garmin is up to date for all of the fitness metrics.

struggling to workout how to do that… how do I disconnect it all? I have tried deleting the app and disconnecting on Garmin Connect but whenever I redownload the app and load it back onto my watch - it still just says null…

Strange! Can you follow me please and I will PM you

James - I love the idea of this widget! I just got the Instinct 2 watch not too long ago and was really excited to see this widget but it doesn’t look like it is supported for my watch. Is there any plan for this in the future?

Looks like it does support glance widgets, so I’ll give it a quick test and upload it if all is OK.

Thanks James. Let me know if I can help on my end.

I have tested it, but unfortunately the screen real estate is just far too limited for the amount of information shown in the widget.

Dang, all good. Thanks for giving it a shot!
