Garmin Connect not syncing HR data to Garmin Connect from either trainer road or strava on indoor trainer workouts

Garmin Connect not syncing HR data to Garmin Connect from either trainer road or strava. I have A garmin watch but a wahoo chest strap HRM. All my data is seen in Strava, Training Peaks, and Trainer Road. However, the HR data is not syncing over to the Garmin Connect App. When looking at my days stats the HR will only show a max HR of 108 even though my HR was in the 130-160 range during my indoor workout. Easy Fix is a getting a Garmin chest strap but i don't want to spend the $. Is there an easy fix?

  • The all-day HR data comes from the internal HR sensor of the watch. The HR data from Trainer Road can be reviewed in the activity details, If you want the same data on the all-day HR screen, you'd have to connect the strap to the watch and start an activity on it (you could discard it at the end).
