Another thing that I find lacking in the custom workouts is there is no way to specify the exercise name. The hierarchy should be exercise type->exercise name->duration...
As examples:
Warm-up->hamstring stretch->20 secs
Exercise->pushup-> 20…

NOTE: there have been similar requests for YEARS to allow custom gym exercises. I'd suggest piggybacking on those. Asking for "reverse fly" is a one off change. Opening it up to add any…
I've read some old post before (e.g. 6y old ) regarding the custom naming of the exercise in the workout.

Mine does, but then, I have set the Activity Class correclty. I do not quite understand why you do not simply adjust the setting as I advised to see whether it helps. If you change…
I am also experiencing the same in the early stages for a run. My HRM belt is starting to be a bit old, so I suspect it has to be changed (it's been used for a couple of years now). To prolong its life I try to make it a custom to apply a bit of electrode…
You need an interval workout, with short anaerobic bursts at max effort. You cannot achieve any anaerobic effect with a long effort in Z5. You cannon sustain anaerobic metabolic mode for more than a few tens of seconds (typically up to ~20-30s, at top…
