Daily Suggested Workout prompts not working?

Hi,

I’m using Epix on 9.33. I have enabled daily suggested workout prompts, I have a training status, and I have a race added to my calendar. I have also recently finished a Garmin Coach program for my previous race.

I’ve followed the tip to remove any files in the Workouts/Schedule folder on my Epix by connecting it to my computer.

Daily suggested workouts are available under Workouts in the Run activity on my watch and seem to be correctly connected to my upcoming race.

But, I still can’t get the daily suggested workouts to prompt me when I open the Run activity on my watch.

The suggestions are not available in Calendar on Garmin Connect either, but I don’t know if they should be. Today’s suggestion is however available in the Calendar on the watch.

Any suggestions?

Yes. After installing software 17.20, I had Daily Suggestions present. He did one of them yesterday, because previously I had to do it according to the training plan, and yesterday I could use the regular…

Same issue here on 9.36. Despite "enabling prompts" in the suggested workout menu, there are no prompts.

Looks like the same is happening on older watches.

Same problem here. I still can select Run > Options > Workouts > Daily Suggestions to see them, but never got a prompt directly

Thank You!!.. still not sure about what is the issue, but I suspect is related to workouts not completed.
I did a Garmin Coach program and was completed but I was not getting the Suggestion prompts.

I did something similar than you, but in same day
- I deleted files from GARMIN>Workouts>Schedule folder
- Added a running workout for "today" from the garmin website
- Made sure watch was on sync from web and mobile app (probably not neede.. but just in case)
- I started the workout and stop it and discarted it
- Deleted workout from calendar and sync again the watch
- Restarted the watch and when I went to Run activity I got a lovely prompt with Today's suggestion!!

I checked the files from the GARMIN>Workouts>Schedule folder and were from 16th Sept.. couple of weeks ago, and last time I followed the Garmin coach.. so wonder if system didnt delete it for some reason..

Anyway, looks like the key is deleting those files and maybe just restart the watch or do/pretend to do some workout.

In any case, thanks again Etupes25 for the workaround!!

Thank you for sharing, really appreciate it. I was in a similar situation, no DSW prompts. I followed the steps and it is working again.

Thank you so much for this; this eventually worked when doing exactly like you said!! Finally I have my suggestions popping up. I hope this bug can be fixed sometime soon!

I have the same problem. The daily workout suggestions show in my morning report but it does not appear when I press the activity button or when I selected the run activity.

I have plugged into the computer and removed the workouts from the scheduled folder and this put the suggested workout in the daily report but still not showing when I select the Run activity

Hmm, did you execute all the steps including the restart? Is not an official fix, but don't see why it won't work for you

yeah I did those steps so I'm not sure why it is not working. Like I said it shows in the morning report but not when I go into the activity.
