TrainingPeaks, the training app for endurance coaches and athletes, released an integration with Apple Watch, allowing users to send structured bike and run workouts from TrainingPeaks directly to the Apple Watch Workout app.
“Apple Watch has become an even more in-demand training device for TrainingPeaks athletes,” said Dirk Friel, co-founder of TrainingPeaks. “We’ve heard from a lot of users who want to see TrainingPeaks and Apple Watch working more closely together. Specifically, to have their planned TrainingPeaks workouts available within the powerful Apple Watch Workout app.”
With a tap, athletes can send their workouts from TrainingPeaks to their Apple Watch Workout app. And through auto send, they can view their next week of workouts from their coach or training plan on their watch.
“This integration with the Apple Watch is not just a technological advancement, it’s a leap forward in making high-quality training accessible and practical for both elite athletes and everyday enthusiasts,” explains Friel. “It perfectly encapsulates our vision of bringing expert instruction to more athletes through user-friendly technology.”
The workout integration requires Apple Watch Series 4 or later running watchOS 10.2, paired with iPhone Xs or later, running iOS 17.2.
Founded in 1999, the TrainingPeaks platform is reportedly “used by pro cycling teams, including INEOS Grenadiers and EF Easypost, Ironman World Champions, and over 30 national governing bodies worldwide, including USA Triathlon, British Cycling and Triathlon Australia.”
