Power workout creation process in Garmin Connect

Hello,

with the shut down of the workout creator in the Tacx Cloud I've been forced to use this bulky creator in GC. My personal opinion about it I've written in another post here in this forum.

For my workouts I am using a Tacx Neo Bike. If I create a Power workout in GC I've to control the Power with the Bike by my own now. There is no control of the power by the bike or the software anymore.

Do I make something wrong? Or is there a SW Update of the Bike necessary or what else? Anyone out there with the same problem?

Here one typical segment from the GC creator. (unfortunately in German)

Frankly told, in summer I do not use Tacx, so did not experiment with it yet, but I suspect that the Workouts in Garmin Connect are not ready yet for replacing Tacx workouts, at all. For example there is no way to define the slope grade too.

As I wrote, I did not test it yet, but if your watch (or Edge) has the submenu "Smart Trainer Options" after entering the main menu of the activity profile Bike Indoor, then you can try using the option "Follow Workout". If it does not help, you could set the power manually with "Set Power" in that same menu, though that then renders the workout useless.

Otherwise, I recommend reaching out to the Product Support through their website at https://support.garmin.com. Use the Phone or Chat options for an instant response. Email exchanges usually take a few days.
