How can I specify which stats should be tracked in my manual activity?

I’ve created my own activity “back training”, but it always tracks the distance in kilometers, which doesn’t really make sense for this kind of training. I cannot find any specific setting where I can turn off the tracking of the distance or where I can choose which stats should be tracked. Does anybody know how to edit this? Thanks in advance!

  • You cannot edit it, you have to select the activity type that already monitors all the metrics you are interested in, and then creating your custom activity as a copy of it.

  • Thank you for clarifying! I just realised that I can change the activity type for the trainings I've already completed. Where can I do this generally for this manual activitiy?

    Do what? Changing the type of an activity that you added manually? Just like with any other activity - in Garmin Connect.

    Or changing the type of a custom activity profile that you added? You cannot change it. The activity recorded with the custom profile will save with the type of the template that you used when adding the custom activity profile. You can then change the type of the recoded activity in Garmin Connect. Or you can use a Connect IQ app, such as the "Any Activity" or "Any Sport", for assigning any existing sport ID to the activity.
