How to send a workout to Garmin

Put a planned workout on a compatible Garmin device so you can follow it during your session.

Before you start

• Your Garmin account connected. Here's how.
• A compatible Garmin watch.
• A paid plan. Send to Watch is a Pro feature.

Step by step

1. Open the workout. Either make one in the Workout Generator, or open a planned session on your calendar.
2. Read the full workout from start to finish.
3. Make any changes with Edit session. Your edited version is the one that gets sent.
4. Tap Send to Watch. From the calendar, tap the watch button on the session where you see it.
5. Open the Garmin Connect app on your phone and sync your watch.
6. On your watch, open your workouts list and find it there.
7. Start it when you head out. Your watch walks you through every step.

Where it goes wrong

• Looking in the wrong place. It lands in your watch's workouts list, not in your watch calendar.
• “It didn't work.” Check your Garmin connection and that your watch has synced with Garmin Connect.
• Thinking sending it means you did it. Sending a workout doesn't start or complete it. Confirm your recording from the bell afterwards.

Check it worked

• The right workout is in your watch's workouts list.
• The steps match what you read in the app.
