Hi, I would like to ask if inline skating workout will include calaries burn? Im using Strava w Apple Watch 7 when it doesnt include this data. On Apple side api it is possible to store this data. Strava already has access to all the sensors and it measures heart rate for example. Could you please take a look on this?

Hello @dosko 

Thanks for posting about this.  At this time, Strava only performs a calorie calculation on ride, run, walk, and hike activities. All other activity types will not display calories unless the upload partner includes the data with the activity upload.  Since you're recording with the Strava App for Apple Watch, you won't see calories for inline skating activities.

I hope that's helpful.  Let us know!

Is there a place to upvote more investment in the inline skating activity / exercise type?
