Unable to save workout if one exercise has no target (time, weight, etc.)

Hi,

I create my own workouts on Garmin Connect and I realized I cannot save a workout if I leave an exercise with no target. I have a workout in which I have 4 sets of max unbroken reps of pull ups. If I have no target setting (the option "No Target" is actually available in the target setting) the workout will never save. It will constantly send the error message "Failed to update workout. Try again later".

I was really upset when it happens because I had just built my whole workout but wasn't able to save, so I lost it all and had to start again. Took a couple of times before I realized it was due to this bug. I fixed my problem by entering a high amount of reps, but I'm pretty sure this could be fixed by Garmin.

I'm not seeing this option. You should have some sort of option for target. Target "Lap Button Press" is what I use, and it makes the most sense.

Not sure which model you have, but on Fenix 8, I do have the option. But yes I guess Lap Button Press could do the trick.

Are you starting from Custom? That is the only instance where I see "No Target." When you first start creating the workout, try staring as "Strength" in addition to "Lap Button Press."

Also, make sure the next step is rest, so you'll have an opportunity to enter the reps if they need to be changed.
