Hi Thevoid, i am new to the Vivoactive 3. Everytime i make a new workout in the web site of garmin connect it gets sync'd to the mobile app but I have never been able to sync them to the watch. Any ideas? Gone thru the hole manual and can't seem to find answers. thanks,
If it is a workout that does not upload to your watch, try doing a minor edit in it (i.e. changing a letter in the name) and send it again to the device. In case of a workout from a Training Plan, it is mostly sufficient to simply add any dummy workout (it can be completely unrelated to the coach plan) to the schedule and sync. It will clear the queue, and workouts will be syncing fine again. Also, use the USB cable and Garmin Express, for the upload to the device, if syncing over the phone app fails.
Also note, that at a workout, you can either send it to the device alone, or you can also schedule it for a certain date. In the later case it will be sent in two separate FIT files, and the workout will pop up automatically when you start the activity of the corresponding type on the scheduled day. If it is not scheduled, you have to look up the workout on the watch, in the menu of the activity, under Trainining » My Workouts.
Just upgraded to VA3, and wanted to use workouts. I was finally able to load the workout to my VA3 from the app. First, select the workout and view the screen that says Overview, and below it will show Run Workout, and the steps associated with the workout. On the upper right of the screen is an icon of what appears to be a phone, with an arrow. Select that icon to load the workout to your VA3.
