An open, hackable and free training diary.

Training data are stored in a database...

  • Read FIT files from smart watches, bike computers, etc
  • Daily information (eg weight) can be entered via the diary
    • Ability to add custom fields for general data capture
    • Dedicated tracking of injuries
  • Other data (eg FTHR) can be entered at the command line
• There are tools to process data in the database:
  • Prepared calculations for data totals, ranking
  • Calculation of TSS
  • Ability to extend processing with Python
• There are tools to get data out of the database:
  • Pandas tables for analysis in numpy and Jupyter notebooks
  • Prepared plotting routines for common operations (eg ???)
  • Daily, monthly and yearly textual summaries
• Clear database schema, designed for third party access
  • SQLAlchemy ORM interface

You also have the ability to schedule diary reminders for regular events:

• This is used to schedule training plans
  • Prepared / example training plans included
  • Simple, declarative library for defining your own plans

System configuration is via Python prompt.

The project can be used stand-alone by someone comfortable with the technologies used, or it could be extended with a GUI. See documentation for more details.

This branch under development - not all the above implemented.
