Importing Polar Workouts to Garmin Connect

Hi all, I'm sure this has been discussed but I have been searching forever to find a solution to import all my workout history from polarpersonaltrainer.com to my Garmin Connect. I have exported all Polar workouts to .xml file, is there a way to get them into my Garmin Connect?

I just have about 5000km of training history I don't want to loose.. If worse comes to worse is there a way to manually enter workouts so I could just put in one workout with the total km's, avg hr, cad etc...?

Cheers,
Rich

This worked perfect for me! Export all your polar activities in .tcx-format with this tool (blocks of 180 days per export zip-file). When you specify which period you want to export, don't forget te check the box "importable in Garmin" (or something like that :-) ). Next unpack all your downloaded zip-files to one folder. Garmin allows you to import multiple files at a time, I imported all 400 .tcx-files at once. Went flawless!!!!

I used http://polar2garm.in/

It does not have the 180 days limitation as the tool first proposed by 5244405

Do the activities you import in Garmin Connect als count for stats like training status and intensity minutes?

As it is 2021 now, the Polar Flow Exporter doesn't export your workouts as XML anymore, but as there own JSON scheme for the Polar training sessions. This is so far great, because I have written a converter for that. Converting this .json-files from the Polar Flow export to state-of-the-art Garmin .fit-files. :) Just upload those FIT files to Garmin after conversion.
