Custom Intervals Workout

Hey JCGooch,

At present, it doesn't appear to be as per Customize workouts on Apple Watch, the additions to a custom workout are limited to warmup, work, recovery, and cooldown. If segment breaks are something that you'd potentially like to see added in future software releases, you can leave Product Feedback here.

Take care.

Hi JCGooch,

Thanks for clarifying further. Since the issue has been isolated to the Strava app, it would be best to contact the app developer for Strava for further help as they will be best prepared to assist:

Hi JCGooch,

Welcome to Apple Support Communities. It sounds like you're on the right track. Try these steps before your workout, adding as many intervals as needed. Guidance is from Customize workouts on Apple Watch - Apple Support.

"Add warmup, work, recovery, and cooldown intervals

You can tailor your workouts to include a warmup period, repeating work and recovery intervals, and a time to cool down.

1. Open the Workout app on your Apple Watch.
2. Turn the Digital Crown to the workout you want to do.
3. Tap , scroll to the bottom, then tap Create Workout.
4. Tap Custom, where you can do the following:

• Add a warmup period: Tap Warmup, then tap Time, Distance, or Open. You can also add a heart rate alert to the warmup period.
• Add work and recovery intervals: Tap Add, tap Work or Recovery, then choose Time, Distance, or Open.
• You can add multiple work and recovery intervals.
• Add a cooldown period: Tap Cooldown, then tap Time, Distance, or Open. When you choose Open, you can also add a heart rate alert.
• Name the workout: Tap Untitled below Custom Title, then enter a name.

Note: If you’re doing a stationary workout—Elliptical or Pilates, for example—Distance isn’t an option.

5. Tap Create Workout.

The Create Workout button is active only if you’ve added a work or recovery interval."

Best of luck.
