Strength workout weight off by 1/2 Lb.

When doing a strength activity from a custom workout where the weight is a fraction, such as 142.5 pounds, when doing the set, it rounds up to 143.0. I then need to edit the weight during the exercise or remember to adjust it later in Garmin Connect. It is a minor issue, just trying to eliminate a few button presses on the watch.

I opened a case with Garmin Support, but I've been going around in circles trying to explain what is happening. I've seen a few other posts that are at least a year-old mentioning this, such as by  - Issues and bugs with Strength Training - fēnix 7 series - Wearables - Garmin Forums

Bug 3: If I have a weight like 22,5 it gets rounded up to 23 if I skip the repcounter.

And by  - Strength Training: own training plans with pre-set 0.5 weights rounded up on "edit set" screen - Public Beta 23.8x - Fenix 6 Family - Public Beta Bug Reports - Garmin Forums

If you define an exercise with i.e. a weight of 7.5 kg and attempt to edit the set after completion, the weight is displayed rounded up to 8.0 kg.

And by  - 18.14 Firmware - Weight Lifting Bug - Enduro 2 - Wearables - Garmin Forums

The following weights are all reduced by 1/2 lb.: 5, 10, 20, 25, 35, 40, 55, 70, 75, 90, 95, 105, 110, 125, 140, 145, 160, 165, 175, 180, 195

Garmin suggested turning off Rep Counting, but that leaves me with no way to edit the set (neither reps nor weight) when doing the activity. "Edit last set" is not available. This becomes problematic when doing super sets.

Wondering if anyone else has reported this.

  • Add me to the list of users this affects. In my workout I have weighted seated cable row as an exercise. On the website and app it says 90.0 lbs for the weight, while I'm doing the exercise it shows me 90.0 lbs. When I'm entering my reps it shows 90.0 lbs. But then it prompts me to enter the weight, and suggests 89.5. I love the watch but this is a little frustrating, it feels like it has something to do with the software's conversion from Statue to Metric and visa versa.

  • it prompts me to enter the weight, and suggests 89.5.

    I'm still experiencing this issue 2 years later, even after several firmware updates. This includes the latest 21.19, where it is mentioned in the change log "Fixed strength activity weight being changed on the rep edit and weight screen."

    I was hopeful this this would finally be the fix. I reopened my case with Garmin Support, supplying a video of what is occurring (again).

    Anyone else still have this issue on their Fenix 7/epix (Gen 2) watch?
