TP SYNC: Integrate IV with the coaching accounts.
Our coaching company would like to use TPV as a training tool in our training center. All of our clients have TP accounts, many are Premium. The timing issue is that we have to individually log-in a client with their TP log-in credentials. It would be excellent if we could select the user from our TP client list such that they are automatically logged-in and data automatically transfers to their TP account. This would also accelerate your efforts to build a base of users with existing (and new) TP clients.

Thinking about how to mechanize this. I see the coach's account has an icon in the upper right to open TPV. This is good but it only opens for the coach. You still have to log-in for others.
- Set it up such that when the coach opens an athlete's calendar, they can open a TPV icon that uses the selected athlete's log-in and offers up the athlete's scheduled workout in the "workout of the day" window. If no scheduled workout, then open the normal dashboard.
- Allow the coach to select pause, disconnecting from the trainer, so it can be calibrated, and then deselect pause to reconnect and resume the workout.
- Upon completion of the workout, allow the data to be automatically loaded to the athlete's TP account and other connected services (Strava, etc) in their account.
- We use a split big-screen with two trainers, and two apps open on the same laptop. We also do this when hosting indoor events (races, rides, group workouts, charity riding events). Please ensure that at least two instances of TPV can be run at the same time (resources permitting). -

Allow coaches to use their coaching login to manage athlete interactions in TPV - having to use my own athlete account doesn't seem to make sense, especially since I create the interval workouts and assign them in trainingpeaks for my athletes using my coaching account.
