Structured workouts
Once you have linked your Garmin Connect and TrainingPeaks accounts, any eligible future structured workouts added to your TrainingPeaks calendar will immediately sync to your Garmin Connect calendar. A Garmin Connect icon on the workout Quick View in TrainingPeaks indicates that the workout has been synced to Garmin Connect. The next time your device syncs with Garmin Connect, your workout will be sent to your device. Depending on the model of your Garmin device your workouts will sync by Bluetooth, WiFi, LTE, USB cable, or ANT+ Stick.
Some workouts now have steps which are openly timed, on your Garmin you must press the lap button to proceed to the next step. The idea is to allow more flexibility when riding outdoors so you can start an interval in a suitable location or do a longer warm up/ cool down. Some of the workouts will now have a second target, ie cadence as well as power, this is all built in thanks to the new features on the Training Peaks workout builder. It's a good idea to have the Training Peaks app on your phone so you can preview the workout before heading out and see how long the openly timed steps are roughly meant to be.
