Uploading Workout to Garmin Connect

Does anyone know if its possible to upload Workout data (FIT or TCX) to Garmin Connect, for later sending to a device?

We're (https://trainasone.com/) generating custom workouts and our Garmin using runner love being able to run the steps to pace or heartrate range, but would like to be able to download from us and upload direct into Garmin Connect and then send wirelessly to their watches.

On a related note, I noticed that TCX has a ScheduledOn for WorkoutT, but I cannot find anything similar for FIT?

(Those on older devices have even more fun as they need to download the TCX workout from us and then use Training Center to copy it across :)

Thanks

I don't think it is possible to upload workouts directly to GC. Possibly because GC workout creator does not support all workout commands that were available in Garmin Training Centre.

BTW, I've just started using your https://trainasone.com - very cool, thanks!

I imported the workouts from your system into GTC and scheduled on the calendar (forerunner 935). Seems to work ok for me.

That is a shame. Its particularly frustrating as we used the FIT files generated by the GC workout creator as a partial reference when implementing our downloadable workouts, so we're happy to generate whatever subset it would want... but if thats what Garmin have decided :/

Glad you're liking it! We would love to make it completely seamless for Gamin users, but I guess we'll have to wait until Garmin decide to add that feature.

Thanks again

@abs0d [h=2]TrainAsONE is amazing, did you found any solution to export to GC workout?[/h]

Unfortunately not - obviously now we have written our own Garmin widget that can download workouts directly into watch storage, but that is only supported on the Forerunner 753XT and above (though the vivoactive 3 should be gaining support in the next ConnectIQ version)

I know but many times I have error when is connect with mobile phone. Do you have any forum about your app? I send mail about issue, but I have more issue because from yesterday download all workouts from Garmin and I think on some forum I can find faster solution

Hi - TrainAsONE does not yet have a forum - it is something we're looking to add but have been focussed on other development.

Thanks

maybe the cheapest and easy way to create forum on the garmin, because your app works on the garmin device.

We do work on Garmin watches (and a Garmin is probably the best way to use a TrainAsONE plan), but we have a lot of users running with phones and other devices, so we probably need a more general forum

I've just signed up for TrainAsOne and was looking to see if GC had an underlying REST api I could use to poke the plans generated in to my Garmin without having to faff about with the USB cable :D It's a shame there's nothing there (at least, nothing documented), I'm on a VA3M which means the app to download direct to watch won't work for me :(
