Hmmm…first off, thanks for adding this. It’s a step in the right direction for supporting weight training. But…a weight lifting activity is a combination of: a) the exercise, b) number of sets, c) amount of weight for each set, d) amount of reps performed with that weight for each set.
Having only an overall total weight lifted doesn’t seem that useful. Or am I misunderstanding how this is to be used?
Indeed. I currently add this as a description:
4x2x10 One Arm Row (Vertical Row) (16 KG)
4x2x10 Rows (10KG)
4x10 Pull overs (16KG)
3x10 Snatch (10 KG)
3x10 Deadlift (24KG)
3x5 Squats (24+16KG)
But would be great if there was a bit more of a structured approach to add this.
Exactly. I do the same. I copy the workout plan from a prior week/session, paste it in a future date. Then, since I am sometimes able to complete more or less than the plan, I copy the actual completed sets/reps that same prior workout, and paste it into the future date’s plan. This is veryi cumbersome.
I was planning to use the excellent API that @Anton_Kuranov made open source, to develop a simply “copy prior actuals to future plan” ability. But then I got lazy and created an AI agent to do the same using the Intervals REST API. I tend to cycle weight lifting plans across 2 week spans, so it simply pulls the actuals from 2 weeks ago and populate’s next week’s plan with those. Then I manually modify anything I want to change.
Hoping this is the first of several steps in logging weight lifting. Strava recently launched weight lifting support - tracking reps/sets/weight and showing muscle groups trained. Not sure if this is available to sync to Intervals, would be great if such a sync is possible and supported. Currently I’m using Wahoo app to track HR and Strong to track reps/sets/weight, then sync HR to Garmin (exports to Intervals, Strava, TP, WKO5, etc). Then edit Strava and add weight lifting stuff:
