Team Admin Quick Start

Your workspace holds your rider library, teams and saved power plans. You can manage several teams with the same riders. Other admins have their own private workspaces.

1. Add your riders

Open Riders and choose the method that suits you:

• Add from ZwiftPower imports riders from a team or a list of rider IDs. Follow the import dialog to connect the browser helper, collect the profiles and review them before saving. You remain in control of which riders are added.
• Import CSV accepts a file exported by another captain or a completed CSV template. A preview lets you resolve matching names before making changes.
• Add rider lets you enter one rider at a time.

Every rider needs a name, 20-minute maximum mean power, weight and height. FTP is calculated as 95% of 20-minute power. Missing details must be supplied before the rider can be used in a plan. Tags are optional and help group riders by club, squad or event.

To update existing riders, select them in the library and choose Update from ZwiftPower. Review the proposed changes before applying them. You can also edit a profile directly. History shows recorded measurement changes.

2. Create a team

Open Teams, enter a team name, and add between two and eight riders from your library. Choose TT or Road for the default event type and check the riders' equipment. The app suggests starting equipment; adjust it to match what your riders use.

TT and Road setups are saved separately. Switching event type lets you edit the other setup. Choose Save team, then Open in planner. You can create more teams using the same library without duplicating riders.

3. Calculate your plan

In Planner, select a saved team and the correct bike event type. Start with Target NP to calculate the pace and pulls from your riders' abilities. The default target is 98% of FTP. Set the gradient, wind and rotation length for your event, then choose Calculate plan.

Review each rider's front power, drafting targets and workload. The target is a planning reference, not a guarantee that every rider remains below it. Edit a pull in the result grid to fix its duration, or choose Reset to auto to let the app allocate it. A zero-second pull keeps a rider in the rotation without leading.

Manual speed & pulls is available when you want to set the pace and durations yourself. Planning preferences changes the starting values for future plans.

4. Save and share

Give the calculated plan a name and choose Save plan. Saved plans keep the original measurements and results, so changes to riders or equipment do not alter them.

Open Rider handout for a compact table you can download as an image or print. You can also export CSV or print the full plan. For consistent race instructions, save first and share from the saved plan.

To prepare another event from a saved plan, choose Edit a copy. It uses current rider measurements and recalculates before you save a new snapshot.

Your account and data

Account contains planning preferences and Download my data, which exports a copy of your workspace. Rider CSV exports can be shared with another captain for import into their own workspace.

Deleting a rider removes their profile and team memberships, but saved plans retain their original snapshots. Clear workspace data in Account removes all workspace data and requires explicit confirmation.
