Different workouts in Training Plan and Garmin Coach

Fenix 7x

I have a series of events, including a marathon in may 2025.

I thus chose a marathon plan on the Garmin Connect website.

On my watch I, however, get a very different daily recommendation (today 20 minutes basis on the DRW and 47 minutes basis on the plan)

The workouts of the plan do appear on the website and the agenda on both, web and mobile. But on my watch I only have the DRW on the Garmin Coach glance. The workouts of the marathon plan are nowhere to be found on the watch.

More intriguingly: I removed the marathon plan on the web, and now the Garmin Coach glance is asking me to create a plan.

I thus have to choose between two options:

* Following the watch's suggestion

* Consulting the website to find out what is planned.

None of both options is acceptable: I need to be able to see and manage my plan online, where I can also check my stats and work on periodization etc. and I want the workouts available on my watch to perform them.

Hi,

Enduro 2 with a samsung s24 ultra.

Had an similar issue, I turned the watch off and on, i force closed the app and downloaded an update for the watch using the Bluetooth function on the watch. It solved the issue and watch and plan are now in sync.

Hi, which app did you force close and how?

Garmin Connect on the phone.

But mainly it seemed like turning the watch off and back on and updating it did the trick. I also connected it to the computer and did and update using Garmin Express.

you mean the watch software update via Garmin Express?

If that already solved your problem then my question is obsolete.

But in case you observe differences then please try check what happend around 17:00 CET - calculate your time

I have seen similar problem few weeks ago, and at that time everything was in sync until next morning when again was showing different workouts.

Today all days and durations are in sync, while on the watch it shows a 4hrs run and not 4hrs cycle.on one day.

What I also recognized: the settings like training days and days for long trainings also do not get synched from mobile to watch, but the other way round.

long story short: most of it is in sync since this morning CET. Let‘s see status tomorrow.

The 4hrs run changed to 4rs tour during night and is correct now

During the day the training for today was still not in line: 0:55hrs on the watch and 1:07hr in the app. I restarted my watch and the duration in the app is 0:55 now as well.

On Monday I have checked workout Resume after battery being empty and then I was not able to sync Garmin Coach between App and Watch.

Only after restart it got sync, even I have manually invoked sync from Watch and from App.

Seems that Restart solves several problems.
