No super strength badge???

You need to have 5 strength training activities since April 28 2020. Older activities do not count.

There must be more to it. I've done six through manual entry since July 29 but haven't received the badge. Did you enter yours through a Garmin watch/heart rate monitor? I wonder if my manual entries don't count.

Manually entered activities do not count.

Hmm, I record activities through my watch (Forerunner 35) then I have to edit the activity to reflect strength.  My old Garmin had a strength category right on the watch.  This one doesn't.  So I guess no strength badge for me until I upgrade.  I wonder why they dropped that category on the watch for this model.

I'm not 100% sure, but as long as an activity is recorded with a Garmin device, then the badge should be awarded, after you change its type to strength.

Because the 35 is the cheapest and simplest running watch, and has only very basic sports features.

Yes, as tmk2 wrote, you can record the activity as any activity type available on your watch (i.e. Cardio, or even Running, though an indoor activity type would be better suited), and then changing the type of the activity to Strength, and the badge will be awarded.

makes sense. I just bought an older Vivofit2 and can now edit activities that uploaded as walks or runs. Thanks!

Hi, is Strength type a subtype of Gym and Fitness, like Cardio, Pilates, Step and Yoga? I have the same issue but my app is in Italian and I have something that should sound like "power training"

Cannot tell you how it is called in Italian, but in Garmin Connect Web, in User Settings you can change the language from Italian to English and back instantly and anytime you wish, so you can set the Strength Activity type easily in the English version.

Is it still available? A repeatable.
