If you did it right, you should have a single Repeat 4 Times box with a grey outline around your Interval and Recovery steps. It would look something like this.

One note; I have found that it is often tricky to drag/drop interval steps into the repeat blocks. You just have to keep trying until you get it to work.

Thank you very much. I've fixed it up.

It's not working for me. Anytime I try to drag the second item into the repeat, the other one "pops" out... It's frustrating !!!

It will work, you just have to keep trying. There are a few tricks that do help make the experience a lot less frustrating.

One of the tricks is to create the appropriate number of steps and drop them into the repeat at any position. After you have the correct number of steps, go back and edit each of them.

Another trick is to avoid dragging steps to the last position in the repeat. Doing this will typically cause the step to drop out of the repeat. Instead, move the bottom step up. This makes creating an repeat a bit like a game of Towers of Hanoi, but it does work and you get used to it.

When creating workouts on garmin connect on my mobile, I cannot figure out how to drag a step into the repeat on a tablet or mobile. Am I missing something. I can do it on the computer easily on the computer using the mouse even though it is a bit fiddly
