New Feature: Wahoo Integration – Your Cycling Workouts in obseed

We’re excited to announce full integration with Wahoo Fitness — the platform behind the popular ELEMNT bike computers, KICKR trainers, and heart rate sensors. Starting today, your Wahoo workouts are automatically synced to obseed in real time, including your entire training history. Wahoo is now the sixth data provider we fully support, alongside Garmin, Oura, Whoop, Withings, and Apple Health.

What Data We Sync

Our Wahoo integration brings three categories of data into your obseed profile:

  • Workouts & Activities: Every workout recorded on your Wahoo ELEMNT lands automatically in obseed — whether it’s cycling, running, or indoor training on the KICKR. We import the full FIT files, the same data format used by Garmin. That means full detail depth with GPS tracks, power data, heart rate, cadence, and more.
  • Body Weight: If you track your weight in your Wahoo profile, it’s automatically imported — useful for calculating power-to-weight ratios (W/kg).
  • Power Zones & FTP: Your power zones and current FTP (Functional Threshold Power) configured in Wahoo are automatically imported when you first connect. No manual entry needed — your training zones are ready to go immediately.

Real-Time & Historical Syncs

Real-time updates via webhooks: The moment you finish a workout on your Wahoo ELEMNT and it syncs, obseed automatically receives a notification. The corresponding FIT file is downloaded and processed in the background — without you having to do anything.

Complete training history on first connect: When you first connect, we import your entire Wahoo training history — page by page, workout by workout. Only workouts with complete recording data are imported. If the connection is interrupted, the import seamlessly picks up where it left off — no workout is ever lost.

Smart Duplicate Detection

Using both Apple Health and Wahoo? No problem. obseed automatically detects workouts originating from Wahoo devices (ELEMNT, KICKR, BOLT) and prevents duplicate entries. The direct Wahoo connection always takes priority — for maximum data quality. When you connect or disconnect Wahoo, your Apple Health data is automatically reprocessed to keep everything consistent.

Secure Connection & Privacy

The connection to Wahoo uses the industry-standard OAuth2 protocol. You sign in directly with Wahoo and grant obseed read-only access — your Wahoo password is never shared with us. Access tokens are automatically refreshed, so under normal circumstances you never need to re-authenticate.

If the connection is ever interrupted, obseed proactively detects the issue and shows you a prompt to reconnect. One click and you’re synced again.

Log in today, head to your Profile Settings, and connect your Wahoo account to get started! Whether you train on the ELEMNT or the KICKR — your data is now at home in obseed.
