Suunto + Stryd → Strava + TrainingPeaks Source of Truth
Make the Suunto watch the single recorder and fan out to Strava and TrainingPeaks; trust Stryd for power/pace.
Diagnosis
Let your Suunto watch record once and fan out from there: Suunto watch → Strava and Suunto watch → TrainingPeaks. Trust Stryd for power and pace, Suunto watch for the file — and turn off the Stryd PowerCenter auto-post to Strava so your feed and your coach each see exactly one run.

Data route
This is the fix: which connections to keep and which to switch off.
✅ Enable these
- Stryd pod → Suunto watch (power & pace) — Best power/pace into your one file.
- Suunto watch → Strava — One run on your feed.
- Suunto watch → TrainingPeaks — One workout for your coach.
❌ Disable these
- Stryd PowerCenter → Strava — Stryd PowerCenter auto-post duplicates the recorded run.
During the workout
Do start
- ✓Record the run on your Suunto watch with Stryd paired for power and pace.
Don't start
- ✕Don't leave the Stryd app running its own session that auto-uploads.
Step-by-step setup
Account links
- Connect Suunto watch to Strava.
- Connect Suunto watch to TrainingPeaks (TrainingPeaks → Settings → Connect → Suunto watch auto-sync).
- In the Stryd app, turn OFF auto-upload to Strava (Stryd → Settings → Connections → Strava).
Device settings
- Disable NATIVE running power so Strava shows Stryd power, not the wrist estimate.
During each workout
- Start an outdoor run on the Suunto watch; Stryd supplies power and pace.
Verify it worked
- Confirm one run in Strava AND one in TrainingPeaks — both from your watch, with Stryd power.
⚠️ Duplicate-risk warnings
Stryd PowerCenter and your watch both post to Strava → duplicate.
Fix: Turn off Stryd's Strava auto-post; keep the watch → Strava.
If TrainingPeaks pulls from BOTH Strava and your watch, your coach sees two.
Fix: Use a single TrainingPeaks source (the watch); disable any Strava → TrainingPeaks sync.
What data to trust
- Trust Stryd podfor running power and pace.
- Trust Suunto watchfor the recorded file, distance and time.
You'll know it worked when…
Exactly one run in Strava and one in TrainingPeaks, both showing Stryd power — your coach sees a single clean workout.
