If you do not want to use Zwift or other virtual platforms, you can simply execute your AI Endurance cycling workouts by letting your Garmin control your smart trainer. For example, let your Garmin Edge 530 or Forerunner 945 control your Wahoo Kickr trainer. All smart trainers supporting the ANT+ FE-C protocol, including Tacx, are supported.
If you do not care too much for the entertainment that virtual cycling environments such as Zwift offer and simply want to get your indoor workouts done in a productive way, this is for you. And you get to save the Zwift subscription fee as well.
Here's how you do it:
Here's a video of how to set this up for the Garmin Edge 520:

by Grant Paling. In my last blog, I closed the chapter on my European Championship race in Portugal. It definitely was an intense period leading up to, during and after the race. So many emotions, so much effort invested and then…what’s next?

They both smashed it at the school sports day (maybe competitive dad made them do some laps at the track after swimming - but they didn’t take much encouraging!!)

We present a new real time feature of evaluating readiness to train based on in-activity heart rate variability (HRV) measurements during the warm up of your activity. You can use this feature in the newest version of the alphaHRV Garmin Connect IQ app at no additional cost.
by Grant Paling. It has been a while. I hope you’ve all been ok. The winter months are hard. Darkness, cold, rain. It’s not always easy to get motivated to train. It’s also a time when maybe it’s a bit more appealing to stay on the sofa and watch some good TV - as you might guess from the blog title I’ve been watching Loki on Disney Plus, among other things (and yes I am a bit late to the party there).
