# Strava MCP for AI Agents AI Agent Connect > Strava MCP lets you manage your athletic performance data directly through your AI client. You can pull activity logs, check athlete statistics, explore routes, and update your training history without leaving your chat interface. It connects your Strava profile to your agent so you can get real-time insights on your progress. ## Overview - **Category:** industry-titans - **Price:** Free - **Endpoint:** https://edge.vinkius.com/vk_preview_Ra2PRSOPZ56IqyQnijWRgZi6Hqmb9YLC3CePAyuU/ai-agent-connect - **Tags:** activity-tracking, fitness-data, workout-logs, athlete-stats, route-planning, health-metrics ## Description Strava MCP lets you bring your entire athletic profile into your AI chat. Instead of digging through menus to find your weekly mileage or checking your heart rate zones in a separate app, you can just ask your agent to do it for you. This connection handles the heavy lifting of data retrieval and manual entry. You can pull up your recent workout history, check your lifetime statistics, or see which routes you've saved for your next training session. If you have a workout that wasn't recorded by your watch, you can tell your agent to add it to your log with a simple command. It also works for community engagement, letting you see which clubs you belong to without leaving your current workspace. By integrating this into your Vinkius setup, you turn your AI into a personal training assistant that knows your history and helps you stay on track. It takes the friction out of performance monitoring so you can focus on your training instead of your data management. ## Tools ### create_manual_activity Add a workout to your history manually.
