How To Sync Peloton To Fitbit

how-to-sync-peloton-to-fitbit

To sync Peloton to Fitbit, you connect your accounts so workout data flows automatically between them, letting you track cycling metrics and maintain your streaks in one place. This integration sends workout details from Peloton to Fitbit and pulls activity data from Fitbit into your Peloton profile.

How to sync Peloton to Fitbit: what you need to know

When you sync Peloton to Fitbit, the data that transfers includes workout length, distance, and calories burned, which are logged as an exercise in Fitbit. However, heart rate data from your Peloton workout does not sync to the heart rate display on your Peloton Bike or Tread touchscreen; for that, you need an ANT+ compatible heart rate monitor. A key distinction exists between streaks and milestones: imported workouts count toward your Daily and Weekly Peloton Streaks, active time, activity calendar, and workout count, but they do not count toward Peloton-specific Milestones (such as your 100th Ride) or certain achievement-based badges.

Sync Peloton to Fitbit using the Peloton app

This is the primary method to establish the connection. Follow these verified steps:

  1. Open the Peloton App on your smartphone or tablet.
  2. Go to your "Profile".
  3. Tap the "More" menu in the top-right corner.
  4. Scroll to "Add-ons".
  5. Select "Fitbit Connect" under "Permissions".
  6. Tap "Fitbit" to sign in to your Fitbit account.
  7. Follow the on-screen instructions to grant permissions.

Once connected, your Peloton workouts will automatically sync to your Fitbit account. For third-party workouts (including those from Fitbit) to correctly count towards Peloton Streaks, you must have the most recent version of the Peloton App (iOS/Android).

Sync a completed workout from the Peloton touchscreen

If you prefer to sync individual workouts directly from your Peloton Bike or Tread, use this method:

  1. Complete a class on your Peloton device.
  2. Tap "Share" on the screen.
  3. Select "Fitbit" from the sharing options.
  4. Log in to your Fitbit account when prompted.

This sends that specific workout's data, including duration, distance, and calories, directly to your Fitbit account. Your Fitbit setup and pairing must already be complete on your mobile device for this to work smoothly.

How Fitbit activities count in your Peloton profile

They also apply to certain challenges. However, these imported workouts do not count towards Peloton-specific Milestones (like your 100th Ride) or achievement badges. The update allowing third-party workouts to count towards Peloton Streaks applies to activities synced on or after May 13, 2026, and does not retroactively update historical streaks.
