Syncing workouts to your devices and apps

The workouts themselves are identical indoors and outdoors — the same intervals and targets. The difference is how they reach you.

Indoor: Zwift and MyWhoosh

Workouts sync automatically to Intervals.icu, which connects to Zwift and MyWhoosh. Enable the Intervals.icu integration in your Zwift/MyWhoosh settings and your structured workouts appear there ready to ride.

Outdoor: Garmin and Wahoo

Workouts are uploaded to your Intervals.icu calendar; from there, enable sync to your device — Intervals.icu connects to Garmin Connect, Wahoo, TrainingPeaks, and more. Once synced, structured workouts appear on your head unit ready to execute.

Why a walking or hiking workout shows as a run on Garmin

If you schedule a Walk or Hike workout, it stays a Walk or Hike in IntervalCoach and on your Intervals.icu calendar. When the structured workout syncs onward to a Garmin device, though, it can appear labelled as a run. That relabelling happens at the Intervals.icu → Garmin sync layer: Garmin’s structured-workout format doesn’t carry Walk/Hike the way it does Run and Bike, so it’s not something IntervalCoach controls.

It doesn’t affect anything that counts: follow the steps as a walk, and the completed activity records normally. If you’d like it filed as a Walk, switch the activity type in Garmin Connect or Intervals.icu afterwards, and it still counts correctly toward your training load and recovery in IntervalCoach.
