How to Enable Zwift Workout Exports in Athletica

If you're new to Athletica and don’t see the option to export your bike workouts to Zwift (ZWO format),  MRC or ERG files, don’t worry—this is a common issue with a simple fix.

Why the Export to Zwift Option Might Be Missing

Athletica requires a Critical Power (CP) value in order to generate and export a Zwift-compatible .zwo workout file. If no CP is available for your profile, the export option won’t appear.

How to Fix It

There are two ways to make sure your CP is set so you can export to Zwift:

Option 1: Complete a Bike Workout

Once you complete a bike session in Athletica, the system will automatically estimate your Critical Power based on your performance. This will unlock the Zwift export option for future workouts.

Option 2: Manually Set Your Critical Power

If you’d prefer not to wait, you can manually enter an estimated CP:

1. Go to Settings in your Athletica account.

2. Navigate to Thresholds > Bike.

3. Enter a value for your Critical Power (CP) in watts.

   • If you're unsure, a rough estimate for beginner riders is between 150–250 watts, depending on your fitness level.

After setting your CP, the Export to Zwift (.zwo) button should appear under your bike workouts.
