Hello fellow Garminers!

Here is my problem.

I've used to track down my rides with Garmin Edge 820. 

I've just bought a Fenix 5X.  I've enabled at both devices Physio True up at Connect/Devices.

BUT Fenix 5X after syncing with a ride recorded with 820 DOESN'T calculate training effect, aerobic/anaerobic etc. 

The only way to calculate them is to record with both devices, but that way i have 2 same rides uploaded.

So what's the fuss about the True up ?  We have to buy a new device every 2 years?
