Hi, I have a power imbalance, roughly 54/46 - my right leg is currently producing 15% less power than my left. I am working on this with exercises and monitoring power balance in realtime. When completing an indoor TrainerRoad workout it is synced with TrainingPeaks, however, the Power Balance d…

I record the indoor rides on my Garmin to get the pedaling dynamic stats, but only to look at. I don’t worry about trying to change anything based on the numbers, just satisfying my curiosity.

Hey @thomas1 ! Have you tried simultaneously recording your Workout on your Garmin head unit and viewing the Left/ Right power in Garmin Connect? ** A note on that: Save your record of the Workout that you recorded in the TrainerRoad app first. Once it has been uploaded to your TrainerRoad App, the…

I don’t think TrainerRoad saves the L/R balance data in the .fit file so it wouldnt get sent to TrainingPeaks - if you want that data in TrainingPeaks I believe you would have to dual record on your bike computer or watch.

I do something similar to Sarah in that I run my garmin while doing an indoor TR workout so I can see current (10s) and overall LR balance as data fields. Slight difference is that I don’t bother saving the garmin workout as I’ve set TR to update Garmin connect.

A tip try rollers. I just bought some and for the first time ever my l/r balance is almost a perfect 50/50 (having even been as bad as 38/62 at times in the past but more like 45/55 in recent months)

Hi @SarahLaverty Yes, I usually record on my Wahoo Bolt too so I can easily view the L/R balance in real-time. I also record on my Garmin Forerunner 955 but more for Garmin specific health metrics. Both the Wahoo Bolt and Garmin will upload and share the L/R Balance with TrainingPeaks, however, w…

Thanks @mcneese.chad Seems to be a mixed opinion on the usefulness of L/R balance metrics.

Yup, that is what I’ve always understood as well. I think there’s even an open Feature Request to get the LR data included in the TR file.

Found it.
