Setting FTP in Garmin Connect

[Iron Midge]

Does anybody know how to correctly set FTP in Garmin connect? I go to Settings - Training Zones - Cycling - Power Zones and enter it there but whenever I download a ride it uses a much lower number which skews the IF and TSS numbers?

You have to upload that number to your garmin - there is a less than conspicuous menu option for that in garmin connect on the lower left of the screen after you have edited and saved the setup.

 

Alternately you can edit the number directly in your Garmin, but that won't update back to garmin connect.
