Training Peaks vs BT

I like to use both.  I use the logs here so if I were to have a question about training, people can look at my logs and give some sound advice.  I use TP because I like the way the data is organized and I can look at the graphs to break down a training session.  

As far as entering a training plan into TP, you can but you would need to purchase the premium membership for that service.  

So I can't manually edit my own training plans unless I pay for the service?

BT does this for free

Interesting.

I have recorded all my training here on BT since early 2005...first year I didn't log it.

The pluses of TP is they have power data, graphs, calculations like TSS, NP, ect, I like uploading Garmin files, it shows it on map and I can even click and have it show on google maps.

If I didn't train with power the differences are less.

I like each....graphs and history data here on BT is awesome.

Thanks Kathy, I think until I get a power meter its not useful to me.  

I have been contemplating the same thing. I have the free TP but find it very limited unless one upgrades to premium. I like BT but it does have it's flaws. I am disappointed that I can upload my bike workouts from my Garmin Edge 500. I know it's coming but it has been a long time wait. TP seems to be more compatible with different devices. My plan is to continue using BT because I think it is the best bank for the buck. I will start training with power in a couple of weeks so I am planning to supplement the BT training log with Golden Cheetah so I can start keeping track of my power files. 

I stand corrected! After posting this I went in and tried to upload a bike workout from the Edge 500 and it worked! I had to first download a plug in from Garmin but that was all I needed. Thanks BT for getting that fixed!
