can I use Physio True Up to restore load/vo2max from garmin connect after master reset?

I had to use master reset (complete reformat) on a fenix 5 after the gps went bad and would never lock/track no matter what I tried

so I've lost vo2max and weekly load average, etc.

garmin-connect seems to know that info, and I've even restored the past week or two of previous FIT files into \ACTIVITY but watch refuses to use that data and tells me to wait a week

any way to solve this or garmin just doesn't care even 13 firmware versions later?

physio true up transfers the stats from your workouts 30 days back on to your watch

when no stored vo2max present during those 30 days, you will have to do as the watch asks you to do

did you put those files there ?

let physio true up do it's job

force sync again via physio true up by turning it off and back on preferably in Garmin Connect Web

just to follow up on this, either the old FIT files or True Up essentially gave me a "pending" vo2max of sorts but not what I really wanted because it's critical to my training to prevent injury: weekly load based on EPOC

I know garmin doesn't actually bother to monitor these forums but if a developer ever trips across this thread it sure would be nice if true-up also synced/restored the weekly load average

You should be able to see your weekly load in the GC app (under the Performance Stats tab).
