How to post strength training on Strava

Strava can log the workout. Here's how to make the post show what you actually trained.

Step-by-step

1Record with a watch, or open Strava and tap Add Manual Entry.
2Set the activity type to Weight Training (or Workout for a more general session).
3Add the duration and any heart rate or calorie data. Save the activity.
4Open UPPOST and pick the Strength template. Add sets, reps, muscle groups trained, workout type (push / pull / legs / upper / full body) and feeling.
5Copy the title and caption into Strava and attach the UPPOST image — including the muscle map — as the cover photo.

Example

Title: Push day · Chest + Shoulders + Triceps · 5 lifts · 1h05 Caption: Bench 4×6 @ 100kg, OHP 4×8, dips, cable flies, triceps pushdowns. Solid session.

Common mistakes

Leaving the title as "Weight Training" — the feed shows that and nothing else.
Skipping muscle groups. Other lifters look for split context.
No photo. Even a clean text-on-image recap outperforms an empty activity.
Hiding the working sets in the description.
Logging two sessions (lift + cardio) as one activity. Split them.

FAQ

Can I post strength training on Strava?

Yes. Strava has a Weight Training activity type. You can record it on a watch or add it manually. UPPOST adds the sets, reps and muscle-group context Strava doesn't capture.

Does UPPOST post to Strava automatically?

No. UPPOST creates the image, title, and caption. You attach them to the Strava activity yourself.

Do I need to log every set and rep in UPPOST?

No. Add what makes the session memorable. The Strength template is flexible — log a full workout or just the main lifts.

Is UPPOST affiliated with Strava?

No. UPPOST is independent — no partnership, sync, or official integration.
