Type or paste your workout. Workout Writer structures intervals, recoveries and targets, ready to send to Apple Watch or Garmin Connect—no manual rebuilding.
Type a running or cycling workout in plain English, then send the structured session to Apple Watch or Garmin Connect.
Got a session from a coach, club, training plan or group chat? Instead of rebuilding every warmup, interval, recovery and target in a watch app, paste it into Workout Writer - or type your own. The structured workout forms as you write, ready to send to your watch.
For example:
10 min easy
6 x 800m at threshold, 90 sec easy
2 km cool down
Workout Writer turns that into a watch-ready session in seconds.
What you can do:
• Write workouts naturally
Create structured running and cycling sessions from plain text. Warmups, intervals, repeats, recoveries and cooldowns take shape as you type.
• Set your targets
Use pace, heart rate, power or cadence, plus reusable effort tags such as Easy, Tempo and Threshold.
• Send to Apple Watch or Garmin Connect
Schedule a workout for a specific date or keep it ready to use whenever you need it.
• Plan your training
See upcoming sessions in Schedule and check the weather before heading out.
• Reuse and share workouts
Edit saved sessions and share them by link, QR code, image or text. Personal effort tags let each athlete use the same session at their own intensity.
• Use Apple Shortcuts
Create and schedule workouts from text, list saved workouts and tags, or check what is planned for a day.
Workout Writer is for runners, cyclists, coaches and clubs who want to spend less time building workouts and more time training.
Built by an endurance athlete, for real training. Workout Writer is free to download, with optional Premium subscriptions and a lifetime purchase.
Really liking this app so far. I mostly wanted something simple for creating my own run workouts without digging through a million menus, and this does that really well. You can just type workouts out normally and it figures it out. Sending them to the Apple Watch is easy too. Clean app, works well, no complaints.

Thanks to DF for suggesting this improvement.
