4. Entering Workouts
There are multiple ways to enter workouts:
 By recording “live” a route while exercising outdoor using your phone’s GPS
capabilities (section 4.1)
 By choosing an activity and entering a workout (section 4.2)
 By copying an existing workout (section 4.5).
4.1. GPS Recording
One of the most exciting features of MySportTraining is the GPS recording of your
outdoor workouts. It automatically records the duration and distance of a workout, and
you can review these values, your pace, even the course completed so far on a map, at
any time during the workout.
To start a GPS recording, tap Today and then tap the GPS button to show the GPS
Recording screen. You will then see the message “Awaiting position…” (see Figure 9).
This message is displayed until your Android phone can precisely pinpoint your current
location. Under a clear sky, this may only take a few seconds, but it may take longer
(minutes) under different conditions (cloudy sky, in a forest, surrounded by buildings,
etc.) The GPS icon in the top bar will blink until the position is known.

for your current position to be accurately determined.
