      Hi Lynda/All,

      I applied the 40+ MTB Base plan and the CTR plan to TP and I’m now trying to synchronize the structured workouts with my Garmin Edge 530, so I can do those on a CycleOps trainer with a PowerTap Pro wheel.

      I authorized the connection between TP and Garmin Connect for both Activities and Workouts but I can’t see the planned workouts on Garmin Connect (either online, on my iphone app or on the Edge 530). I looked on the TP forums for help but I couldn’t find anything that fix this problem.

      Do you know what I might be missing?

      Thanks!

      Update

      Now I can see the planned workouts in the Garmin Connect calendar (online and on iphone app but not on the 530 calendar) – I guess I needed to give the apps enough time to synchronize. However, I only see the description of the workout in the calendars. To see the structured workout I have to go to Workouts and look through a long list of them in no apparent order (I have two different plans synchronized). Once I find the right workout I can send it to the Edge 530, but I have to do that one by one, and then I have to pick the right workout from the list of workouts in the 530 every day.

      Is there a way to sync the training plan to the 530, including the placing the right structured workout for each day of the program?

      Hi Segundo,

      Here is a video walking you through the procedure to auto sync daily TP workouts to your Garmin device.

      Thank you Lynda. Problem solved. Not sure exactly how but it works now.

      Just in case someone else runs into this problem. I was seeing before the Garmin logo with the green check mark on the TP structured training pop up, but I wasn’t seeing that on the Edge. I checked other profiles on my Edge and it appeared in one I don’t use (Gravel Bike – I never setup anything there). After that, I checked all the other profiles, including the one I normally use, and all of them have the training sessions on the calendar.
