RAMP Training

WMar

I have this kind of training planned

-60m ramp 70-110% (178-280w)

How to perform it in Garmin Edge 1040? Seriously is it such a problem to add to edge an option for such a workout!

    Of course, Garmin doesn’t provide for (nor does Training Peaks) a workout step with a power profile that looks like that. Why not break it into 1m or 2m “steps” following the ramp profile?

    Because it's more convenient and that's how wile training platforms do it. Zwift, MyWhoosh, Wahoo, and others.
    One line that can be interrupted with one press of the lap button:

    - 60m ramps 70-110%

    Counter a dozen lines:


    -90s 70% (178w)
    -90s 71% (181w)
    -90s 72% (183w)
    -90s 73% (186w)
    -90s 74% (188w)
    -90s 75% (191w)
    ...

    And one more thing, Garmin has a limited training step limit of 50.

    Spent a couple weeks with Garmin support regarding an ERG ramp & Edge830, sent ERG, FIT, and device file system files. 
    Even sent screenshots from 830 & my Bolt. Bolt displayed the same ERG interval as a ramp, 830 didn’t.

    Final outcome from support, ERG ramps are not supported. 
    (Full disclosure, trainer is a Kickr, didn’t test any other brand)
    I’m forced to use my Bolt indoors.
