After initial test i have 2 question:

      How to update metadata.xlm to include Row? I tried deleting metadata.xlm, from GC and Athlete directories, but after GC restart, a old version of metadata.xlm was recreated, with No Row field. Had to create the field manually.

       No critical rowing pace in zones. Is these the expected behavior?


   Pace Rowing metric works fine.

Thanks.

Likely there is a remaining metadata.xml under athlete/config for some athlete, it works for new users.

Yes. I have not seen any request about Pace Zones for sports other than Running and Swimming, and a cursory search shows not results, except for an article applying Daniels ideas from running to rowing. I had thought about to implement them, but honestly, I would prefer not to unless it is something in common use or really useful.

Removing all users metadata.xml under athlete/config did the trick.

Ale, thanks for this awesome ad to GC.

 Just for clarification: CV (and CP) models were already enabled for any sport in Critical Mean Maximal charts, only change is to display the model parameters and tooltip in pace units for rowing, like it was previously only for running and swimming, in 2 situations:
- In Activities view when selected activity is run/swim/row
- In Trends view when all activities involved (may be using a filter) are runs/swims/rows

WRT to pace zones I found this calculator including them:
A quick look at the Google spreadsheet seems to indicate pace zone limits are derived from power zone ones, to include them we would need to derive them as percentages of CV directly.

BTW, in https://www.concept2.com/indoor-rowers/training/calculators/pace-calculator a simple formula is used to derive power from pace: watts = 2.8/(split/500)³

I am not a rower, nor particularly interested in rowing TBH, but I am willing to add rowing pace zones provided they are useful tool, so rowers and rowing coaches interested, please comment.
