Weight training import

Former Member over 7 years ago

Hi,
I created weight training in Garmin Connect but I can't send it to F5 through the web. It's saying that I have no compatible devices. In mobile app I see it there and there is option for sending it to the F5, but than I can't find it anywhere on F5. Am I missing something?

Thanks for help

Having the same problem on a Forerunner 935. Created a weight training and a cardio training and despite having both apps/activities on my device, Garmin Connect is telling me that I have no compatible device. Haven't tried it on GCM, but I doubt it would be different.
I guess only someone from Garmin can tell if this is intentional or an error.

Creating a custom strength workout is a new addition.I guess we will also have to wait for the rep count update to come to the fenix and 935.

I haven't created a workout since they added the weight training, pretty excited to try, however i have created workouts in the past and i could not send them via the web either...i had to go on mobile and send it to the device that way, i think the only way you can send it via computer is if you have the wifi version, or if you have the F5 plugged in to a USB. Once i sent the created workout via the mobile app it took me a while to find it on the F5 to get it to work, this link helped me: https://www8.garmin.com/manuals/webhelp/fenix5/EN-US/GUID-3AA7B50B-EBE5-4A29-A15A-316849BA9BDB.html

however even after all that it didnt work the way i wanted it to, this was before the strength training options and all i wanted to do was track which muscle groups i worked last, so i made workouts titled with the different muscle groups hoping that next time i went to workout i could look and see which one i did last, however it did not show what i titled the workout, not even on the calendar...i hope this changes with the newest update.
