Hello!
I’ve been test-driving Athletica for a couple weeks, it’s been good to me and I’ll suscribe shortly.
Although, I’ve come against some glitches that could be improved.
I sync with and work a lot with Intervals.icu, as a crossroad of integrations. I’ve realised that the prescribed workouts don’t translate well from Athletica → Intervals.icu. I know your views on zones differ, but can you add a layer of mutual understanding which would result in accurate workout descriptions? Heartrate, pace and power zones all differ which with auto-sync to Garmin and others end up in quite a mess.
In addition, I came across a case of AI-coach being short on memory. It prescribed a low-cadence workout, yet commenting afterwards it wasn’t optimal to be at low-cadence.
On the same workout, the sync to Inetrvals.icu seems to have failed around the < character. Therefore I had to manually copy-paste the workout to Intervals.icu.
Thanks for the hard work on making Athletica and keeping improving it!

Replying to myself here as I came across a pretty bad one today. It’s quite worrying AI Coach that forgets my A-race is tomorrow.

Some more feedback regarding the workout sync using the workout builder.
It seems the distance-based workout are sometimes not carried over. Or to be more accurate, they are carried over with the wrong unit and partial HR info. This results in a blank training sport in the workout, ans wrong load prediction.
can you please adjust the distance to be miles or km which seems to be umits accepted by intervals.icu?
Here’s a screenshot of a workout as-synced followed by its counterpart in Athletica

Hello @frederic, sorry I am not following here. Note that this is a Test workout, so it is left open with the purpose of allowing the athlete to do an ALL OUT efforts without stringing them into certain zone, and thus restricted/prompted by their watch to either pick up or slow down the pace.
Please explain what would your rather see?

Thanks for your answer Marjaana. Well noted regarding the all out meaning. Yet, Athletica “prescribes” a HR range and a pace race so I am not perfectly following the logic here. I simply wanted to have mirrored data assuming Athletica prescribed ranges expecting an all out effort would be situated in said range.
