How to add a session to your plan

Add one session when you know what you want to do. It can be a simple easy run, a gym visit or another sport.

Step by step

1. On the home screen, tap Calendar in the grid.
2. Pick a view: Month, 7-Day, 3-Day or 1-Day. Tap the little lock to make your favourite view open every time.
3. Tap the empty day you want. If the day already has training, tap it to open that day's list and add from there.
4. Choose the sport.
5. Enter the time or distance.
6. Choose the intensity, such as easy or hard.
7. Add a note if it helps, such as “after work” or “flat route”.
8. Check the details and save. The session appears on that day.
9. Want a detailed session with a warm-up and main set? Use the workout creator instead.

Where it goes wrong

• Thinking a plan counts as done. A planned session is still just a plan. After you do it, confirm your recording from the bell so it links. A tick on a session means a real recording is linked.
• Ending up with doubles. This happens when a recording is added as new instead of linked to the plan. Confirm it from the bell and pick the planned session, or use Replace in calendar on the activity page.
• Using the calendar to say you're tired. The calendar is the plan; the daily check-in is the conversation. Say you're worn out in a check-in and your coach offers to change the week for you.
• Worrying about other devices. Changes save to your account, so your plan is the same on every device.

Check it worked

• The session shows on the right day.
• The sport, length and intensity are right.
