Zwift activity (FIT) without training effect but other do

Hi all

I have made an activity on Zwift 16/12/2023 and downloaded the FIT file, adjusted it to Garmin device and uploaded it to Garmin Connect. Result → activity with training effect AND counted towards my badges.

I have made an activity on Zwift 20/12/2023, did the same procedure. (downloaded, adjusted the FIT file and uploaded it manually to Garmin Connect). → Activity WITHOUT training effect (but still counted towards my badges)

I dont understand why it worked for 1 but not for another. I have checked both FIT files and they have the same parameters filled in

  • No, unfortunately it is not solved yet. Just finished a Zwift ride and my training effect is still 0.

  • It works again now, at least for me. Had an activity imported into Garmin direct from Zwift, counted as base, training load 62. I deciced to delete it and import it from Zwift file via Fitfiletools for monthly badges. I was surprised to see the activity with 62 after import. So I tried with an activitiy from February 14th, previously imported from Zwift, training load 222, no badges. Deleted; exported in Zwift, converted with Fitfiletools (Device Changer to "Edge 830"), imported to Garmin Connect. And I saw... training load 222 AND "Valentine's Day" badge awarded.

    So, at the moment it works like it did until December '23.

  • thanks for the update I will try FulGaz’s fit file next week or if I get chance a test ride at the weekend

  • I got an update from Garmin to save changed had been reverted and that is would now work, and it does work with a fit file from Fulgaz so is back to how it was.
