Send swim workout to Garmin Connect

Many Garmin watches support Advanced workouts which the watch can guide you through the workout. Garmin also provides a Training API (https://developer.garmin.com/gc-developer-program/training-api/) to make it mostly easy (ie no need to create a CIQ app to run on the watch).

  Chris maybe you can help me. I just purchased a Garmin 245 watch. I want to load workouts that I find at Swim.com. I see that workouts do not directly load to my device. Can I load them to Garmin Connect and then to my watch prior to my workout? If so, how? I want to follow a workout plan that someone else has created rather than me making it up and manually loading it. Ultimately I want to see the workout on my watch as I do it. Thanks.

  I too am wondering how I can send swim.com workouts to my Garmin...  I can on swimpro, but don't want to pay for that.

  Nearly 2 years later and it's not getting picked up.

  John Brunner, Meghancaine sorry but manually creating a working in Garmin Connect is the only way to get a swim.com workout on your watch.

  I tried MySwimPro as well, but they went the ConnectIQ route which made it more complicated (and therefore more buggy) than it has to be.
