Google is rolling out Step-by-step Workouts for the Pixel Watch 3, Pixel Watch 4, and Pixel Watch 5 starting today and over the coming week, androidauthority.com reported.
The feature provides step-by-step guidance for strength training, mixed workouts, and Coach workouts. Users can follow a routine on a phone and watch together with synced actions, or leave the phone behind in a locker and complete the workout directly on the watch.
Workouts can be chosen from a Coach-created plan or built as a custom multi-exercise routine from a library of over 1,000 predefined exercises in the Google Health app. The Google Health Coach can also build a custom workout on the spot.

Each segment of an active workout displays a focused view showing the current exercise, target metrics, and a preview of the next movement. Weights and reps can be edited mid-workout from either the phone or the watch.
Visual timers and audio cues signal when a set or rest period is complete through automatic progression. Users can also swipe left during a session to toggle audio cues or auto-progression on or off.

Structured runs started on a phone will still launch automatically on the watch. However, using the Google Health Coach to build a custom workout in seconds requires a Google Health Premium subscription.
The subscription is sold separately and requires the Google Health app alongside an active internet connection. Non-subscribers retain the ability to build and follow custom routines manually by pulling from the exercise library without paying for the AI-based coach feature.
