How To Use Garmin Express?
Garmin Express is a handy software tool for managing your Garmin GPS devices. After downloading and installing the application, simply connect your Garmin device to your computer using a USB cable, then open Garmin Express. Follow the on-screen instructions to register your device, sync Garmin Connect, and set up Wi-Fi if needed. Once connected, you can easily install map and software updates to ensure your device is always up-to-date. Additionally, you can access and manage your activity data through Garmin Connect, making it a convenient all-in-one solution for Garmin device owners.
What’s different?
AutoSync your workouts. All of your future eligible workouts will sync to your Garmin Connect calendar and be available on your device. This means that if you decide at the last minute that you need to do tomorrow’s workout today, you can just select that workout from the list of workouts through the Calendar or Training Plan option on your device.
Instant updates. Any edits made to planned workouts in TrainingPeaks by you or your coach (adding, removing, rescheduling, or editing the actual workout structure) will instantly update in the Garmin Connect Calendar and on your device the next time it syncs with Garmin Connect (most newer Bluetooth devices sync with the Garmin Connect mobile app regularly in the background).
Older devices now compatible. This includes all Edge cycling computers back to the 500, the Forerunner 910XT and 920XT watches, and the Fenix watches back to the original Fenix 3. All can now take advantage more easily of TrainingPeaks structured workouts
Speed and reliability. Previously, to get workouts onto your Garmin device you would need to download, install, and set up the Daily Workout IQ app, which required a separate login and authorization. By using the built-in Calendar, training plan, and workout features on your device instead of the IQ app, the entire process of syncing planned workouts to your device will happen automatically.

Important Things to Know
Attention TrainerRoad users! While past TrainerRoad rides won't sync, fear not! Once Garmin Connect is linked, all future rides will automatically sync for your convenience.
Ensure your timezone is set in Garmin Connect to avoid default UTC date/time. Simply navigate to Account Settings > Display Preferences > Upload Time Zone Setting.
If offline for over a week, some rides may not sync due to a limit of 10 workouts/day per user. Contact us if needed!
