• How to create custom workouts using multiple exercise category’s moves, poses and exercises.

    Is there any reason I can’t create a custom workout in the connect app that uses exercises, moves or poses from multiple exercise categories in one workout? Ie mix some yoga poses with strength and cardio all in one workout.

    I think it would be…

  • Why isn't it possible to add custom exercises to Cardio (or anything else?)

    I have tried to add "skipping", "ghost skipping", "running on the spot", "high knee" but the drop down doesn't have these simple exercises, instead I'm offered a bewildering choice of obscure and overly specialized exercises such as 30 degree lat pull…

    I'm trying to figure out how to create a custom workout that is a combination of exercise reps and running.  If I chose workout  type of 'cardio', and add an exercise of 'run', it doesn't let me pick a distance to run.  If I pick…

  • Custom Strength workout: Warm Up requires a specific choice of strength exercise

    I am no expert on strength training, but when I warm up for a strength workout, I do not expect that the warm up should consist of strength exercises. I would do gymnastics, stretching, rowing, biking or something else.

    However, the custom workout builder…

  • RE: [Bug] Strength Workouts - not all exercises saved / blank exercises in iOS app after sync

    I have the same issue, Garmin doesn’t care about the strength stuff at all. They are a piss poor company when it comes to strength related things. They won’t fix it like they won’t add the ability to add custom exercise name field.

    I got a Venu 2 a few days ago specifically to more easily log my strength training, but I've noticed there are quite a few very common ones missing from the library, for example:

    The big one, there is NO chest press. I find it incredible that there…

  • New Garmin Connect exercises and Fit Android app: can I "send" exercises?

    The new Garmin Connect allows creating custom exercises, with warmup periods, interval training etc. I would love to see these work on my Fit android app. Is it possible to do so?

    For example, I want to prepare a specific program like 10' warmup, followed…

  • RE: Is there a way to add a preset rest period between sets when I create a custom workout? If you just record a strength exercise, it automatically sets a rest period. Not so when creating a custom workout from within Garmin Connect. How come?

    if I try program in rest stages in place of sets I soon hit the maximum number of items allowed in a workout

    Are you not using rounds with sets and rests within the round?

  • Creating Strength Workout with Blank Exercise

    I use my Garmin Fênix 5 during strength exercise mainly to keep track of the number of sets and the resting period. The added bonus is that Garmin records the time spent working out in my calendar. I don’t need Garmin to count reps or calories, or…
