After a swim activity I notice that my heart rate data is not available. The data is available in Strava and Garmin connect and with other activities it is always available but with swimming it goes wrong.
I tried to export it and upload it manually but the tcx file contains not the pace and the fit file does not contain the heart rate. But both are available in Strava and Garmin connect.
I made my activities public so you can check it:
Garmin
I would expect that the heart rate chart was available and I think is a bug.
I did upload it now also manually so that could maybe mess up things for debugging but the heart rate chart was never available for this activity (other activities is does work properly)
Perhaps I did something wrong. But hopefully someone can check this and let me know.
My data is recorded with a Garmin device and synced to Garmin connect. Garmin connect did also the sync to Strava (that also contains all the data)
If I look in the fit file viewer I think I also don’t see my heart rate data but I guess you are better in reading those files then I :D. When I export it from Garmin to a tcx I do get the heart rate but not the pace data.
The file you linked is the same as the one I downloaded from Intervals.icu. I can’t figure out where the HR data is hidden. I will poke around some more.
intersting because it is the same device i use for any other activity where it does work. It is a garmin descent nk1.
Tonight i will do another swim so i have another file for reference. What i hope to do tomorrow is to compare the fit file from cycling and swimming and to see if they look different but it so sad it is a binary file and a xml or something
swim tonight. discovered that HR isn’t show in intervals.icu
i can only see zones calculated pace in per 100m speed.
garmin connect has no issues with data
stava seems to has HR data but i aren’t a subscriber anymore.
I do have HR in my swims but i have the ignore option on because it’s an awful data (Open water) anyway, see if you have in the charts options the HR on
I have a similar issue with a timed activity recorded with the Garmin HRM-Pro heart-rate monitor. Garmin Connect shows all HR data, but it seems that intervals.icu only show only HR data recorded while the HRM-Pro was in range with the watch (i.e. begin and end of the session).
Quickly looking at the FIT file (through Garmin FIT CSV Tool), I can see HR data in “record” messages and I think that’s data reported by intervals.icu. Other HR data (not showed) are in “hr” messages (filtered_bpm field).
I think there is a description on how to access the data with the Garmin SDK (section “Using the HrToRecordMesgBroadcast Plugin”): Cookbook | FIT SDK | Garmin Developers
Hi @David, I found this old thread and am having the same problem with an athlete’s HR on his rides. He is uploading from Garmin 1030 to Garmin Connect, Strava, and pushing to Intervals from those. We can view his HR data on Strava, but I can’t seem to get it to show up on his Intervals activity view. Any thoughts on that one? I verified that the HR field/graph is checked on the activity view. When I un-check the HR display in Intervals, the “workout” graph goes away, so it’s almost like that one is tied to his HR channel somehow.
Thank you!
That activity is from Wahoo and there isn’t any HR data in the fit file. I can see his Strava rides do have HR data. Looks like he uses Wahoo for outdoor stuff and maybe hasn’t linked it to his HR monitor?
So I learned that he uses Wahoo pedals with the Wahoo app, so that’s probably where that portion of the data is coming from. His computer is a Garmin, which seems to be sending the majority of data (with HR) to Strava. HR monitor is linked to Garmin, but not the Wahoo app. We checked his settings today and he has Garmin, Wahoo, and Strava linked to Intervals.
I suggested disconnecting the Wahoo connection, and only using Garmin to collect HR and power from the Wahoo pedals.
