That’s really great, really intuitive and easy to use… As always very good job!
I am using my Garmin Edge unit to control my turbo. On some other websites (I am using Trainer Day/ergdb), you can push directly the session to garmin connect and then transfer it to your unit. Do you have any plans on integrating that? Or does anyone know how to easily transfer a zwo/erg/mrc file to a Garmin edge?
Tx. I am going to do Garmin Connect integration. Hopefully soon! At some point I want to get activities from GC as well.

This is a really neat and great feature and I’ve put it straight to use!
Cheers.

There is a way to do that but unfortunately this is using private APIs and have to do some sort of screenscrapping of the login process to retrieve a token, not very much kosher for public use… but if you need it i can send you some code for this (python)
Another annoying thing when using garmin private APIs, you cannot specify workouts in FTP percentage, you need to set the min/max workout power according to the already known FTP value…

Hmm. I have started the process with Garmin to get API access. I was looking more for syncing activities from Garmin Connect, not pushing stuff to devices, but I would hope that it is possible.

Ah I see! hopefully the proper way (API access), will get you all of that…
This is really awesome!
Is it possible to have a repeat within a repeat?
eg Main Set 3x
5m 110%
3x
- 30s 150%
- 30s 50%
Appreciate it!

I was in 2 minds about adding nested loops. Makes the language a little more complicated but I think I will add them for advanced users.

You can now upload MRC and ERG files to convert them. Support for converting Zwift files coming soon. Just click the “Upload” button in the editor.
Steps can now have text prompts. All the text prior to the duration or power specification becomes the text for the step. Example:
- Recovery 30s 50%
The text prompt for that step will be “Recovery”.
Loops append the rep count to the text for the first step if there is any, otherwise the text for the loop is used:
Main set 6x
- Low cadence 4m 100%
- 5m 50%
The text prompts will be “Low cadence 1/6”, “Low cadence 2/6” etc.
There is a new freeride keyword to make a step a Zwift <FreeRide> (non-ERG mode) element:
- 20m freeride

Doesn’t pay to rely on Strava 100% as a 3rd party!
Loving the fact that this feature exists now, Obv getting used the method of writing a program, but I ABSOLUTELY love the graph visual as that is pretty much how I work. My mind sees the workouts better that way.
I must have read too few books and read too many comics as a kid.

Yeah I know but Strava makes it possible for something like Intervals.icu to get started. Most people are on Strava and lots of them have years of history synced from all their services/devices. Strava makes all this available via an API. There isn’t anything else like it.

I deleted my Strava account, but created a new one just for intervals.icu - Strava (for me) is a duplicate of Garmin Connect, so I’d delete it again, if you could get Garmin API access. On the other hand, Garmin is a bitch to work with, much worse than Strava, I guess…

Nested Loops would definitely be great to have as well!
Also I wouldn’t really compare Zwift and Garmin connect… The interface of the latter is really one of the worst things ever designed! And yes I would also be more keen into pushing Intervals.icu Workouts to Garmin (directly in the calendar so it syncs directly with the device?) ratehr than the opposite, as the workout builder in Garmin Connect is also very bad… And yes nothing as percentage of FTP, and all in hard power number unfortunately 
Also something really neat would be to have W’ balance on the chart as well to calibrate the VO2 Max workouts! (cf Xert and TrainerDay workout builders) And as well have an MAP value in the settings and be able to put %ages of MAP in the workout builder?

Strava is just a social plug-in to intervals.icu

I am going to add W’bal to the chart as well as a marker for power etc. at that position.

Is it possible to include Ramp intervals in the workout?
Such as :
480 seconds with a gradual incrementation from 75% FTP to 95% FTP.
Thank you!

You can already do this.
ex.
“- 10m Ramp 100-200w” will return a 10 minute ramp beginning at 100watts increasing to 200watts.
