Importing workout (.FIT) files from device to Garmin Connect

Hi,

I have a number of FIT workout files that I'm able to see on my device since I've copied them directly to the device "Workout" folder.

However, i'm trying to schedule these workouts and want to see them in Garmin Connect in order to do so.

Does anyone know the steps to do this? I tried Importing (and "fixing" the files using a tool) but it gives me errors.

Thank you.

Hello becomingx. These .fit workout files that you can see on your device, how did they get there? Where/how did you create them?

hi Kevin,

I downloaded these workout files from a cycling training site. Tried to import them via Connect and it didnt work so I browsed the directory of my 1030 Plus and copied the .fit files into the Workout folder. With that, I was able to see the workouts on my device, but it doesnt sync / appear in Connect Web, which is the problem because I'm trying to schedule these workouts in my calendar.

If the third party website which you're using has a partnership with us, you may be able to get the workouts scheduled on your Training Calendar by connecting the accounts.

Unfortunately, Garmin Connect does not accept individual workout files, only activity files for direct import.

TrainingPeaks is a good example of a third-party app that can schedule workouts on your Garmin Connect Training Calendar:
