Indoor riding using TR only

How/ where do I go in the TR app to ride indoors on my zwift bike but DO NOT want to use the zwift app? I would rather not pay for two subscriptions.

That’s the primary purpose of TR. Zwift is definitely secondary.

Just open the app, connect your trainer, and go. You’ll need to start plugging in your goals, a little about you, and potentially do a test to get going.

Ive got a trainig plan and have been following it for a week doing outside and indoor rides but it always uses zwift for indoor rides. I will be cancelling zwift so i need to know how i ride indoors just using TR. If i do not have zwift how do i ride with Only TR? I know thats its main purpose but cant find how to do workouts without zwift. Sorry if this is a stupid question!

You would hit load workout to launch the ride:

You may need to go here first to connect your trainer:

Thank you!

Post a screenshot of your TR Calendar. It sounds like you may have a plan whereby all of your indoor rides are planned in as Zwift rides currently(?), but if you’re ditching Zwift you’ll want to be amending that plan so these indoor rides are defined as regular TR workouts instead…

You might also want to remove the connection between TR and Zwift, so that your workouts stop being pushed to Zwift.

Im sure plan is designed to go to zzwift. Where do I go to change that so indoor rides are defined as regular TR workout instead?

I also will disconnect TR from Zwift

Maybe just build a new plan with normal TR workouts and disconnect Zwift?

I have a Zwift bike but do not use the Zwift app. TR workouts connect to the trainer and sync without issues. I don’t remember having to do anything special. You cannot use the Zwift Bike shifting, I I just ride the TR workouts in erg mode.

Pushing to zwift happens whenever you have a zwift account linked to your TR account regardless of if you have a plan or not.

Any workout pushed to Zwift can also still be performed on the TR app - there’s no harm in it getting pushed to Zwift.

For instance all my workouts are pushed to Zwift but I never do my workouts in zwift because I prefer the TR workout player.

You can always just load the workout in the TR app, and run it from there, even if it’s being pushed to Zwift.
