EXTERNAL: Garmin integration
Being able to upload data directly to Garmin and have metrics (training load, vo2 etc) calculated as per the other online platforms (TrainerRoad, Zwift etc)

hi all. the problem is that Garmin are not allowing any new 3rd party connections to it's platform. there is not much that TP can do about this until Garmin changes their policy. Garmin has their own version of this "user feedback" page and the most helpful thing you can do is to lobby them (Garmin) to allow TPv to connect; here is a link, https://www.garmin.com/en-GB/forms/ideas/

Am I the only one who came late to this party? No major announcement of this? Been using Zwift and Rouvey etc for years ..can someone please educate me on this? Is it fully functional? Similar to zwift? Thanks

Adding my voice there. Can’t wait to ditch zwift and go with TP virtual.
Want to get more users, allow to have rides on TP virtual go to strava and garmin.

TP Team - it's planned since Nov 2024 c'mon ... one year and you are not able to integrate it?
looks strange ...
I tried TPV today worked nice but my data after uploading to Garmin are not counting in as real training...
I'm returning to Zwift ...
fix it and I'll back :) -

Hey, does anyone know whether this is being implemented, I'd really want to ditch Zwift and just stick to TPV, but with full integration of the load metrics I won't

Duplicate, look at the top requests.

The main complication I foresee is these TPV activities will still not be recognized by Garmin Connect for training status, VO2 Max, training load etc. Unless TP can arrange a deal with Garmin, at the very least for those of us who have Garmin devices; if this could be done properly I would love to see it happen... otherwise I will keep uploading fit files manually after putting them through the device changer in FIT File Tools, a pain but keeps my Garmin data stream flowing.

the ride from trainingpeaks virtual gets uploaded to trainingpeaks and strava, but not to garmin connect.
it would be great if the training gets automatically synched either from training peaks or training peaks virtual to garmin connect. -

Definitely requires a connection with Garmin. While workouts are being synced to TP, there is no automatic forwarding to Garmin. This needs fixing as manual workaround via FIT files is not acceptable.

I'm aware of the hold ups on the Garmin side, but I having this would be an absolute game changer.

While planned workouts download to both TPV and Garmin Edge computers, they do not sync, so that you have to use one or the other. While you can try to start both at the same time, it isn’t exact, and if you stop or pause, the two get completely out of sync, with different targets at different times. Additionally, because TPV dashboard stats are hard to see on an iPad while riding, I can see them much better on my Garmin head, and additionally my Garmin displays wattage targets as ranges, the cycling computer is by far the better option for doing planned wattage-targeted workouts. While I’d like to use TPV, it is all but useless for planned wattage-targeted workouts. If TPV could sync with the Garmin’s start / stop, I could use them both simultaneously.

hi Martin groundsell. I think the problem is at the Garmin end, they are not allowing any new direct inputs and I think this is because they have launched their own premium subscription service. it's a pain in the bum but I don't think TPv can do anything about it other than try and and lobby garmin. I think garmin also have their own version of this ideas forum and it may be useful to lobby garmin driectly yourself; I have. you can find it here. https://www.garmin.com/en-GB/forms/ideas/

Why is this such an issue for delivery when Training Peaks has full integration with Garmin Connect in both ways already? Surely this can be added to the link that is already in place?

I am still using Zwift (would rather be on TPV) because of the lack of TPV uploading completed workouts to Garmin . While TP is my main source of performance data, Garmin keeps a lot of general health data as well and none of the TPV workouts would ever show. I see below that people are doing some sort of download workaround. I don't know how to do that. I don't see why TP can export a workout file to my Garmin head unit, but not a completed workout to Garmin Connect. Would rather avoid a workaround.

Much rather have this integration than enhanced graphics for example.

Hi, it would be great if the trainings could be uploaded to Garmin platform. They have an API which you can integrate. KR, Rémi TrainingPeak

As I understand there are issues with Garmin not being open to cooperation but it would be nice if there was an update of this being implemented, if ever
