Workouts : primary and secondary target

Thierry over 1 year ago

I created a new workout :

2 minutes at 100 rpm with a power around 150 Watts

Repeated 5 times

I used Garmin Connect to create my training programme using a primary and secondary target :

Duration : 2 mn

Primary Target : Cadence - Target : 100 rpm

Secondary Target : Custom power - Target : 130 - 150 Watts

When I send this programme to my Edge 1030 plus, the secondary target is no longer visible. I have only one Step : 2 mn at 100 rpm and the Secondary Target has disappeared.

Why the Secondary Target has not been taking into account ? What is the Secondary Target for ?

And when you create a Workout from my Edge 1030 plus Secondary Target is not available

Thanks for your help

It seems that secondary target works only in Edge 1040 Solar

To my understanding using fenix 7 Serie, primary target gets displayed as a data screen (very neat) while secondary doesn’t. I don’t know if it’s different in Edge.

I came looking for a thread about this to add that after creating an indoor cycling workout in Garmin Connect Mobile iOS with primary and secondary targets, I would expect the secondary to display a target overlay in its graph just like primary does, but it doesn’t. So then I ask the same question:

Hi Frederik,

I don't know what kind of Edge do you own : 830, 1030 plus or else but with this new application : Training Edge from Garmin IQ you are able to use Primary and Secondary target. It's a bit difficult but it works.

Check this out : Training Edge

Hi @Thierry,

I don’t own an Edge, only a Garmin watch. Checked.

Hi Thierry,

Got told by customer support that secondary target is available to see in Connect Web.
