Only displaying running VO2 Max

My Garmin Connect App is only displaying/using my running vo2 max to calculate my training status instead of my cycling vo2 max (which is 10 points higher) which is my most recent and my most often activity (like 3-1 bike to run). This did not start until connect when down this last weekend.

I have Instinct 2 too, and experience no similar problems. It may be a problem of the device/account association. Remove your watch from Garmin Connect, sign out, then sign back in, and add the watch back…

The volume of assistance is deafening. Another cycling activity uploaded yesterday and it is still only displaying running VO2 Max. Yes I have a power meter.

Went for a run last night and it did not update my VO2 Max says the last update was Oct 4.

But it did update my cycling vo2 max it just isn't using that to calculate my training status. Instead it is using my running vo2max from Oct 4. Despite me logging a run last night, it still says my running vo2 max is based on Oct 4.

Did your run meet the conditions for the VO₂max as listed in the document? Try conducting the Guided Lactate Threshold Test - it should then update not only the LT, but also the VO₂max.

I am using an Instinct 2 solar and have never had an issue before. The run met all the requirements and it is the same run I have done numerous times receiving an updated vo2 max each time. My Garmin Connect has been acting weird since it went down on Sunday.

I just tried that and soft resetting the watch and it did not work. I appreciate the help. Garmin support have opened an investigation.

You already managed to do a new Run activity meeting the requirements for a new VO₂max value, in just those few minutes? I do not quite believe it. If the association of the watch to the account was broken, then you won't see any difference until the next run.

No that run was last night. I meant I tried disconnecting the watch from connect, signing out then in and reconnecting watch (while resetting while signed out).

I have the bike scheduled for today so we will see if my training status updates with the ride tonight since it will be my second cycling activity since Monday.
