We’ve provided training plans for all levels and abilities, advice from our sponsored athletes and coaches, and our latest films as inspiration for you to get started.”
Whatever you are training for – your journey starts here!
Get Your Personal Training Plan: Success begins with a plan, and when you use Garmin Connect training plans online, you’ll be able to track your progress and celebrate your milestones like never before. You can even send the workouts directly to your device from Garmin Connect for real-time coaching as you run, or you can also find printable versions on the Garmin Training site (http://gbr.garmin.com/training/en/home-en.html). We will regularly be adding plans for running, cycling, triathlons and general fitness, all complied by professional coaches.
Running: We have training plans for all levels of running ranging from 5k training plan for beginners and intermediates to marathon/half marathon plans for the more advanced runner. Plans are also
accompanied by professional advice from our coaches to teach you how to get the biggest benefit from your training program. Upload the latest training plans straight to your device and send your training data to Garmin Connect after your workout to see where you’ve been on a map and analyse your running skills.
Cycling: The professionals at Team Garmin Sharp trust in Garmin products to log analyse and share their training data. Connect with the team on Garmin Connect and follow their most recent training
rides and race data. Robby Ketchell, Director of Sport Science for Team Garmin can help you train like a professional and provides tips and training plans for free downloads.
Triathlon: Training for a triathlon requires dedication. The Garmin training program will help by setting out the key milestones in preparing for a triathlon so that you reach your peak fitness in time for the event. Professional triathlon coaches provide advice how to set your goals and to understand how to plan a specific and individualised training plan across all disciplines. Our leading multisport watches Forerunner 310XT and 910XT are perfect triathlon training partners, measuring every aspect
of the challenge including the swim, and enabling seamless transitions between sports.
Cross Country Skiing: Cross-country skiing involves a great deal of physical strength and stamina, using up high levels of energy, so being able to track your runs via GPS is vital for improved training and monitoring. World class athletes including Dario Cologna and the Norwegian Cross Country Ski National Team are supported by Garmin technology during their training sessions and competitions. Our range of products can provide a full set of training data including distance, speed, pace, altitude and – when paired with heart rate monitor – your cardio performance.
