Ride with the Pros’ Favourite Connect IQ Apps

Train like the pros with these Garmin Connect IQ apps. Cyclists from our sponsored teams told us their favourite Connect IQ products. What’s yours?

AccuWeather MinuteCast Greg Callaghan – CUBE Action Team

“The HRV app is the one I use the most and it’s really useful. Other than that, AccuWeather is great and also the app that converts calories into beers (Beer Tracker Plus). It’s pretty handy to know how many beers you’ve earned after a tough session! There’s so many apps to choose from, it’s hard to pick one.”

TrainingPeaks Daily Workout  Ben King – Dimension Data for Qhubeka

“There is nothing more satisfying than a workout that has been performed to perfection. With the TrainingPeaks Connect IQ app, you can complete your daily structured workouts right on your compatible Garmin device. Load any workout built using the TrainingPeaks Workout Builder and complete it in real time through your device, using Heart Rate, Power, or Pace targets.

After your session, you can automatically sync your completed workout back into TrainingPeaks for detailed analysis of your performance and measure your progress toward your goals.”

Race Notes Mikel Zabala, Movistar Coach

“This data field allows display of simple text notes on your Garmin Edge 1000 or Edge 520. Put the data field on a separate screen that you can put in your set of displays to use during the activity.”
