TP workouts support a lot of things, including single % FTP target (like TR) as well as ranges.
I’ll try it next week. I just want to be able to use the pause feature trainerroad outside workouts have vs if i go thru training peaks. I commute about 20 miles each way everyday via bike. So I get a lot of outside workouts in this time of year
At least on Garmin, when a TP workout at single %FTP is sync’d/downloaded it automatically converts to a range.
Below is a sweet spot workout at single % FTP:
the workout specified 92% FTP = 224W for the sweet spot intervals.
When sent to my Garmin 530, TP converts the single 224W target into a range using 90% and 110% for lower and upper ends of the range. Therefore the 224W target becomes a range of:
- 224*.9 = 201W
- 224*1.1 = 246W
as you can see on my Garmin.
Should work the same on other devices, here is an FAQ from TP export support article:

@ncomerford, thanks for the awesome feature. Can you please confirm if you’re planning to allow the publishing of some TR plan info to TrainingPeaks? Just planned duration, and tss for example - none of your IP…
I use Training Peaks as my calendar and at the moment manually create a planned cycling activity in Training Peaks so I can manage my total training plan in one place. Hoping to one day use TrainerRoad, but obviously not there yet…
I’m worried that using this feature might then create issues for people like me who have lots of manually created planned cycling activities in Training Peaks. Will they end up being sync’d back into TrainerRoad creating duplicates?

Apologies if I misread or didn’t follow along.

TSS works great on the bike but it is very limited for run and swim. For example a trail run that is at 11:00 per mile may be very tough but it would get you a lower tss than an easy aerobic run. TM runs and swim TSS are way off.
As a general rule, I always do 10tss per mile run and 15 tss per 1000 swim.
Absolutely and for the running I tend to do the same Pfitz modified plans and map out on TR. Since I have done a workout prior or even not I typically know the “general” tss I can expect.
Thank you!!! this is a huge upgrade and a definite deciding factor on keeping my subscription.
Hey @icebear, at this point in time we have no immediate plans to push TrainerRoad workout information over to TrainingPeaks.
As for your worry about the duplicates, confirming the only thing we are pulling are the actual, structured workouts. Since we don’t pull other things, there shouldn’t be any issues with duplicates. 
That said, if you do happen to notice any issues, please be sure to let us know!

First workout planned today and it’s there in my TR calendar ready to go!
@Nate_Pearson One thing that I sort of skimmed past on the release but now is more obvious is how everything with a range comes across as an average. The same thing happens to TP workouts being pulled into Zwift EXCEPT Warm-up and Cool down intervals, if set in a range come across as a ramp. It works beautifully, I can chuck a 20 minute warm-up at 50-70% in TP and when I ride it I get a nice gradual ramp rather than having to create multiple short interval steps that build e.g 5x4minutes or so.
Is that something that is possible or is it restricted by the file format you are pulling across from TP? It isn’t the biggest deal but it sure makes life that little bit easier!

Wow - I came here to post this exact question.
Both TR and RGT level out the warmup and cool down intervals, where Zwift smoothly ramps them. I’m working with a coach, and he always wants me to ramp those up and down (but I don’t want to use Zwift 
) .
If it’s something not too difficult to implement, I’d love to see it as well.
And thanks again for this feature - I am appreciative of being able to pull in the TP workout and use the excellent TR interface.
I just added an “experimental” text based workout builder to Intervals.icu:
Still need to do work to generate all the different file formats from this but that should be easy @iamholland .

When are you getting an app? On safari the site is tough to see unless in landscape mode. Just asking as I hardly use my laptop.
TR always improving! Quick question that I may have skimmed over above. Will custom workouts created in FS/TP be saved in the TR workouts list as they would if created using TR creator? That way you can add it to your calendar directly from TR instead of having to go to FS or TP first to add it there.
Yeah I have had that a lot! First thing to do is get the web app to work properly on a small screen. Thats a bit of work but do-able maybe only for some functionality (looking at the ride you just did. chats etc,). Making an app is something to consider after that.

Tx. I can easily add different units.
I haven’t done any export yet. Going to get on that next. I don’t have any kind of smart trainer so will have to bug people to test.
You can’t do multi segment like you describe but I could easily to that. Decided not to on v1 as then whoever is editing the text needs to worry about indentation. But I think I will add it for advanced users.

I am loving this feature. Thanks TR.
@Gnome sorry for the delay on this, but we pushed a few small fixes to the integration today. Would you mind giving things a shot to confirm things are pulling properly on your end?
Yep, I put a test in for tomorrow and it came in
@bnied See above.
