Training plan - running with Forerunner 735xt

 Hi all,

I dit used NRC for my training plans but I have to schedule all the workouts manually on Garmin Connect and transfert them to my device. 
On Garmin Connect (app) I only have bike training plans. 
on Garmin Connect (web) I have training plans for running but I can’t see them on the App and therefore can’t transfer it to my device. 
Is it the same for every unfortunate 735xt owner ? Did I missed something ?

Help !

  • Training plans available in Garmin Connect have nothing to do with the type of device you have, so it's more like a general Garmin Connect question rather than an issue with the 735XT. I never tried to schedule a training plan in the mobile app, but on the Garmin Connect website I can access all kinds of training plans, including running, cycling and triathlon. Oh, and I do have the 735XT, although as I said, this is hardly relevant.

  • Thank you very much for your comment. 
    One more question : can you transfer this plan to your 735xt ? If yes how do you proceed ?

  • Yes, I synced a training plan to my FR735XT two days ago, and everything seems to be in order. Once the training plan is scheduled in the calendar, the transfer occurs automatically on the next sync. There are some caveats, though, which need to be taken into account. It might work differently with more recent watches, but there is a flaw when syncing the training calendar to the FR735XT, which results in only the nearest month being synced. When the month comes to an end one needs to do some workaround magic to sync the next month. Usually editing anything (like for example changing the name slightly) in one of the scehduled workouts triggers the sync. I don't know what happens when the training plan is scheduled more than a month away, but it's possible that in that case nothing gets synced.

  • I just checked training plans in the mobile app (Android). Indeed, only cycling plans are available, and I can see no obvious way of accessing other types of plans. However, on the web site, all plans are available.

    I have the same issue. This used to work, now I can't get it to sync no matter what I try from these forums. How do we contact Garmin about it?

  • Thank you very much for your time answering me.
    It is Ok now.

    I created a training plan with the web interface. 
    Later I can see the plan in the calendar and access through the menu : Run -> Menu -> Training -> Training Calendar
