I’ve got a traningplan created in Athletica. The plan is synchronizing to Garmin Connect and every workout appears in the calendar in the Garmin Connect App.
I also want to have the workout on my Edge 840. When synchronizing with Connect the workouts get on my device and can be selected in the “Training” section.
But the workout do not appear in the calendar on the device. The calendar only contains garmin’s own trainings, so I always have to find the correct training in the “Trainings”-section for the current day.
I might however suspect that garmin is having issues with trainings that have identically names when they are synchronized to the unit. Would it be possible to include the date in the name during sync eg.: 20250119-Name of training ??
I am suspecting the same thing. The Athletics sync is not overwriting workouts of the same name, which is really not something I want to think about going into a workout. A timestamp would be great, or I bet there’s an explicit overwrite flag in the api, or just add some if exists logic to the sync process.
I’m also noticing some thresholds are off … workout uploads occasionally set the floor to the max proscribed wattage (e.g. 264-292 on Garmin but 240-264 in Athletica.
I like the concept of the platform and the idea of a multi sport virtualzz coach, but these seemingly minor usability issues really detract from the overall package, and are in fact disruptive to my training.
