Intervals.icu to WKO5 Best Practices

Hello all, was wondering what intervals.icu users that work with WKO5 for their analysis do to streamline communication between the two platforms. Would like to avoid working with Trainingpeaks as much as possible - would make the exception to just pass workouts through but it’s missing rpe, feel and notes. Seeing long convoluted mixed threads out there and was hoping there are some simple streamlined practices people have.

Intervals automatically imports rpe and feel from my Garmin. I don’t enter notes, and instead do that in TrainingPeaks.

TrainingPeaks free will act as a bridge to WKO5. It works well and you don’t have to pay for a subscription.

I can enter RPE/feel/notes in TrainingPeaks, and then it will sync to WKO5.

Or you can simply enter RPE/feel/notes in WKO5 (it doesn’t sync back to TP).

I was using TrainingPeaks free in 2014 and it is a great archiving service for free.

Can you explain more? Because I can enter in WKO5, or in TP where they sync to WKO5.

Thanks I’m also interested in best practice. I enter RPE/feel just before saving my workout on my Garmin so it can go straight to Intervals.icu. I can also enter notes on both afterwards so I’m wondering how TP would provide added value? Good point on archiving data I guess it can be relevant for people changing watches and eco system on frequent basis. In my own case I only had to import FitBit data into Garmin when I switched couple of years ago. True that for long term storage perhaps I should setup my own solution.

U have a Garmin. So that’s long term as well already.

TP free automatically syncs rides/runs/workouts to WKO5. Otherwise it’s a manual upload. That’s it.

What I’m looking for then is intervals.icu to TP, such that all my intervals.icu logging propagates to TP without the need of entering data in different apps. Furthermore I only want to do this if I can’t get intervals.icu data directly to WKO5. I do my planning and logging in intervals.icu and like it a lot, I don’t want to do that across other platforms. IMO WKO5 is the best analysis package out there, if I had more time I’d find their math models, which are out there, and build my own custom analysis in intervals.

i doubt intervals → TP will ever happen.
But you can always do other sources sync directly to TP.
Garmin syncs to TP but I’m unsure about the RPE/Feel/Comments after the ride.
