copy workouts to NewFiles

Hi everybody,

just replaced the good old 510 by the 530. Basically, I bought the 530 for the ANT-FEC and riding workouts indoor. So I copied my .fit (had to convert the zwo formated files) workout to NewFiles folder and restarted the device. No workout Disappointed Usually I copy the gpx to NewFiles and the route shows up, so I assumed it should be the same for workouts.

After some reading, I understand that the new way is sync through trainingpeaks or orther third party accounts. For me a second account does not seem attractive though. I have about 5-7 workouts which I wish to select on the edge itself.

Anyway, is there an instruction or hack to copy&paste workouts directly to the edge? Or are people riding the workouts on other platforms like zwift, trainerroad, ...

Kind regards.

    You should be able to copy workout files from the 510 workout folder to the NewFiles folder on the 530. They will not show in your workout calendar if that is what you are looking for, but should show under workouts once the Edge has restarted and loaded them

    Thanks. But I have no workouts on the old decive, due to the lack of ANT-fec.

    How can I put my zwo files to the edge 530? I would prefer copy&paste them. I do not want to recreate them through the connect.garmin and alikes.

    My Edge 530 has a WORKOUTS Folder. Place FIT Files within and they will be available on your device. Add FIT Files within WORKOUTS > SCHEDULE in format YYYY-MM-DD.fit and they will be available in your calendar. Whether other workout formats are supported, i havent tried out yet, however, you may use a converter such as https://whatsonzwift.com/convert/workouts/ to convert wo files from one to another format (eg. zwo to fit).
