Ability to upload externally generated structured workout files.
It would be very convenient to have the ability to upload a structured workout file into TrainingPeaks. I prefer to build my workouts with my own tool and export them in the format I desire (like TrainerRoad .mrc format or Zwift .zwo format). Being able to upload them to TrainingPeaks will help me keep track of the different workouts I've created. I don't think this would be a difficult task to implement since the common workout file formats have standard syntax that is easily parsed. And TrainingPeaks already provides the option to download workouts as these different file formats so going the opposite way shouldn't be a problem.

Thank you for the suggestion!
The ability to import zwo power based bike workouts is available in your Workout Library. Select the 3 dot menu on a Workout Folder and choose Workout Import.
Please open a suggestion on the next most import imports you all would be looking for!

Excellent! Thank you for adding this. I believe it will be such a useful feature. I think the TrainerRoad, *.mrc file format would also be a valuable format to support. The format spec can be found here:

This should be even simpler to add than the Zwift, *.zwo format. -

It would be nice to add a connection to upload Stryd-generated workouts

I have just been informed by a support rep that
"TrainingPeaks doesn't have the capability to import planned workouts from other third parties; they must be created using our Structured Workout Builder."
I am SO surprised, no wonder the Upload button is grayed out.
I have probably a collection of 100 workouts, and a few dozens that I use regularly with my athletes. There are tools online to convert to different formats like MRC, ZWO, FIT.
Please consider importing workouts to a coach's library. This is a MUST. Manually recreated the workouts is a huge undertaking. The MRC format is a very simple text file format that I am sure can be implemented quickly.
Please help!

Fully agree with this. I get it that TP want to be a platform to sell workout plans so they may be reluctant to implement this, but I have a load of random workout files I have obtained or created on other platforms and really want these all in one place. Now I intend to come 100% over to TPV with the integration that brings, this has become more important. It is a feature avaialble on all the other platofrms I know but is a glaring omission in TP

It would be awesome if there was a way to import a structured workout into training peaks.

I sometimes use a different workout creator such as ZWOFactory or TrainingTilt to build interval workouts as they are easier to use than the Training Peaks one.
I then send these files to the athlete for them to use on their chosen indoor training application.
It would be great to be able to upload this file directly to their workout in Training Peaks -

I use Training Peaks as my "hub" for all of my training. Although I could manually build each workout via the current feature, it's an inefficient use of my time. My planned workouts reside in TriDot. I have tried uploading the appropriate .fit file, says it's successful but I can't find it. When I try to load it again, says it's already done. Again, can't find it. Support says it's not an option, hence this request. Feels more like a bug to me.
