Garmin have just rolled out a new software update to the brand's best MTB smartwatches that includes bike-specific improvements to their training plans that brings them in line with their run-centric plans.

The ability to set up an event using the Garmin Connect smartphone app and then get targeted training suggestions leading up to race day has long been a feature. But while previously cyclists could only see a single training suggestion per day, the latest software update now allows us to see a full week's worth of training, which will enable better planning of the week ahead. The new update also allows riders to see a complete overview of the training plan in the lead-up to an event, which will help get a better understanding of what the plan looks like and what's required over the weeks to come.
