  • (And there doesn't seem to be one other than the one you can attach to an activity)

  • My understanding (which I warm is basic at best) is that it's not an athlete level chart. Therefore only shows up under workouts.

    You can obviously compare VAM between different workouts workouts, so that way you can compare how you've done on the same climb on different dates. I don't see how you can measure VAM over time in any other way though, as it's so dependent on conditions (climb length/gradient/etc). Sorry if I'm misunderstanding though.

    Do you know about the WKO4 power group on Facebook? It's a great resource.

  • Yeah, you're probably right. I know my VAM tends to be around 1000 on any given climb (unless I'm really going for it) having had a quick look back on Strava, though that's only really climbs up to 15 minutes or so. See, in theory WKO4 could actually compare VAM and gradient, possibly even over a given period (it might need to be a month to provide anything meaningful though).

    That might actually be a more useful comparison...
