Let’s hope David will soon consider a better integration with Hevy.
It is now clear and evident that strength work is a priority for every type of specific sport, cycling, running, swimming, tennis, football, ecc ecc, in short the preparation of strength is the basis for then conditioning it and using it for your sporting discipline. Having a more in-depth integration with Hevy I believe is increasingly of growing interest for everyone. You could have collected all the data of all the training sessions on intervals.icu.
Let’s hope in the near future
I would add that I have contacted the developers of Hevy several times, to ask if they can integrate the heart rate recording during training into the app. This would be fantastic and would prevent us from having to acquire it every time with a second app. Unfortunately I have not received an answer yet.
I thought that if more people write to them they could soon consider this heart rate integration.
What do you think?
Just reading through here - I’ve used fitnotes in the past, but looking over Hevy, WeightXReps and Liftosaur - it seems Hevy has an API here Swagger UI which could make an integration a possibility.
I really like the idea of supporting liftosaur or weightxreps’s text format natively in intervals however - that would be very cool. Some sort of text-based sync app should be possible?
Liftosaur: really a good app, in some ways more permissive and complete than Hevy.
I need to figure out how to import the workout done with Liftosaur into intervals.icu in the notes, automatically importing all the details.
OK copy and paste, but I hope for a more immediate integration.
Unfortunately Liftosaur does not seem to synchronize with Strava; this would already be a good first step forward.
Yesterday I wrote to Liftosaur, asking if they were planning integrations with Strava or Intervals, and maybe even a bluetooth connection to associate heart rate monitors, But the answer was negative.
(strava/intervals.icu integration is not in plans to be honest. I only have integration with appe/Google Health at this point.)
So nothing.
Let’s hope in the future there will be second thoughts on the part of the programmer.
I’ve become a bit interested in the topic of strength training. It certainly would be nice to be able to track it nicely on intervals.icu too. Garmin does have some detection for things but I’ve seen complaints it’s not particularly accurate.
Funnily enough, the Fit file format does cater for it, as a workout step maybe of a certain category, which can be things like bench presses, squats and all sorts.
I also connected Hevy to Strava, and Strava being synchronized with Intervals.icu. The problem is that in Intervals.in the notes the list of exercises performed that Hevy generates by default once the workout is finished and saved is not synchronized. The only way is to copy from Hevy and paste in the Intervals notes.
also the heart rate I record with Wahoon Fitness app, and this is automatically uploaded to Intervals in the workout.
Have you somehow managed to make Hevy via Strava automatically insert the list of exercises performed in the Intervals notes of the day trained?
Same here. Contacted them, provided feedback and new ideas for features. Unfortunately, no response at all.
My solution is as follows; record strength workouts separately, eg. Garmin watch. This provides time and load, which I use to schedule strength workouts in Intervals.icu.
For strength progression, it’s Hevy app and weightxreps.
For now I am just manually going in after the fact and manually entering a load for my Hevy workouts. I had to play around with values to try and get the fatigue curve to do what I wanted it to.
Maybe not how you are supposed to use it but I don’t think heartrate alone during lifting sessions explains the fatigue it generates in real life unless you are doing something like high rep bodyweight exercises that more closely resemble cardio.
I record and enter the heart rate to have data anyway. I realize that I can’t refer only to her for the fatigue effect issue, also because they are strength exercises with weights that increase gradually.
how could I have a reference of fatigue also from these workouts with weights for strength?
Please, Can you help me?
When I register with Havy a weight training, which today has synchronization with strava, so when saving the finished training, Havy synchronizes it on strava.
While to record the heart rate of the workout, I have to use either the Strava or Wahoo app, also connected to intervals, as well as strava of course; Intervals manages to merge the two files Havy and Strava to have a single complete workout as well as the details received from Havy, and the heart rate taken from Strava or Wahoo?
Is there a way not to have two double workouts on intervals?
Nope… not natively. (I believe you’re seeing HR data on Wahoo file and Hevy data on the Strava file?)
if you want to combine, you can try geotoes.com but AFAIK, need $ for fit file generation
I saw it, but I fear that it would complicate things too much.
Today I tried to record workouts with the Strava iOS app, instead of using Wahoo fitness.
I was really disappointed, once the workout is saved it doesn’t even show calories, but only heart rate.
Can you advise me if there is an app besides Wahoo fitness that can record more types of sports, and then synchronize all the data and details on Strava?
to be clear:
(?App)>Strava>Intervals
For Hevy it seems clear to me that to put together heart rate with a list of exercises performed and weights used, it is to copy and paste from one recording to another and then eliminate the duplicate.
I also use ErgData Ios with the Concept2 rowing ergometer, but this also unfortunately does not export to Strava or Intervals. Here too, all that remains is to copy and paste from the logbook
