Bringing data in from Strava, Garmin Connect, or other platforms

What the Hub directly integrates with

• Direct upload: FIT, TCX, GPX files dropped into the activity uploader.
• TrainingPeaks: ZIP-of-FIT.gz import, plus CSV import for workout notes and biometrics. See TrainingPeaks FIT zip.

What the Hub does NOT directly integrate with (yet)

• Strava: no direct sync.
• Garmin Connect: no direct sync.
• Final Surge: no direct sync.
• Wahoo / Hammerhead / Karoo / other head units: not directly, but the FIT files they produce work fine via direct upload.

A direct-sync layer is on the roadmap; today the universal path is FIT files.

How to bring data in from each platform

Strava

1. Go to a single activity page in Strava.
2. Click the three-dot menu and choose Export Original (downloads the FIT or TCX file).
3. Drop the file into the Hub activity uploader.

For a bulk export from Strava:

1. Go to your Strava account settings.
2. Use the Download or Delete Your Account flow (yes, that menu) and pick Download. This produces a ZIP of your entire history.
3. Inside the ZIP, the activities folder has FIT and TCX files, plus some GPX.
4. Extract the files and upload to the Hub in batches.

Garmin Connect

1. In Garmin Connect, open an activity.
2. Click the gear menu and choose Export to TCX or Export to FIT.
3. Drop into the Hub.

For bulk export from Garmin:

• Garmin Connect's bulk export is limited. Most users export workout-by-workout, or use a third-party tool to pull the FIT directly off the device.
• The original FIT on your device's /Garmin/Activities/ folder works fine: connect the device via USB and copy the files directly.

Final Surge

1. In Final Surge, open a workout.
2. Use the FIT or TCX export option.
3. Drop into the Hub.

Bulk export from Final Surge: contact their support; they typically offer a manual export of all activities for account migration.

Other platforms

If the platform produces FIT, TCX, or GPX, the Hub accepts it. Most modern fitness platforms do.

What you lose without a direct sync

• Real-time sync: you have to remember to export.
• Workout planning push (Hub plan to device): not available today.
• Live tracking during sessions: the Hub displays activities only after upload.

What you do not lose

• Data fidelity: a FIT exported from Strava or Garmin contains the same per-second data that a direct sync would. The Hub's FIT parser extracts the same metrics either way.

Roadmap

Direct sync with at least one major platform is on the roadmap. Until then, the manual FIT path is the right workflow.
