Open the Training Plan tab in the dashboard header. If no plan exists yet, use “Create my plan” or ask in chat. The coach uses your onboarding answers, coach memory, and synced workouts to propose a structured weekly schedule.
Building the first plan
Quick prompt “Build a training plan” starts a dedicated flow: the coach checks your profile and intervals.icu history, then drafts a week-by-week structure aligned with your goal race or performance target.
Co-create in chat
Discuss changes naturally — swap a rest day, shorten a long run, add a race tune-up. When you agree on updates, type @save in your message (or use the “Save plan” quick prompt) so changes are written to the Training Plan tab.
The coach compares planned sessions to logged workouts for adherence (done, missed, moved) on the weekly calendar inside the plan view.
Refresh when life changes
Ask in chat to refresh / rebuild the plan when your goal, fitness, or schedule shifts. The coach rebuilds from your current data instead of stacking edits on an outdated block.
What the plan shows
Weekly calendar with session type and status, full plan markdown, VO₂max / threshold hints when saved, goal and race metadata, and links to related calendar events.
Send a workout to your Garmin watch
Sending uses Garmin → intervals.icu → Brotein.pro. Brotein.pro does not connect to Garmin Connect. Strava-only athletes cannot send planned workouts to a watch.
Generating a plan does not send anything to Garmin. You send explicitly from the Plan tab after the schedule is saved — or ask the coach to send.
- Connect Garmin in intervals.icu (Settings → Connections) so activities already flow. See Garmin + ICU setup.
- In intervals.icu → Settings → Garmin, turn on **Upload planned workouts**. Brotein.pro cannot toggle this for you.
- In Brotein.pro, connect intervals.icu under Integrations. If calendar access is missing, reconnect and grant Calendar.
- On the Plan tab, generate the plan first, then tap **Send** (one session), **Send week**, or **Send to watch**. Rest days are skipped.
- Names on the watch end with `[BROTEIN.PRO]` — for example Tempo 3x3 km [BROTEIN.PRO].
- Easy, warmup, and cooldown steps use an HR zone. Quality work uses pace in min/km. Recovery jogs between reps have no HR or pace target.
- If you edit a session after sending, the Plan tab shows **Outdated** — send again to update the watch.
