Garmin Coach workout sync - is it working for anyone?

Hi All,

  Seems to be a common historic problem across the platform so maybe it's a vain hope....I'm trying to follow a Garmin Coach cycling plan.  I get alignment in suggested workouts across my Fenix 7, phone and connect web.  The Edge 1050 resolutely shows a different session after a few days.  After maybe 30min of syncing to phone, via wifi or direct cable connection to PC and reboots I *might* get the right session synced.

  I don't want to factory reset the edge every time I want to do a session.  Has anyone else had better luck?  This should be straightforward right?

Thanks,

Jon

  • This is so frustrating.  Connect on web and iOS match, but Garmin Coach schedule on Edge 1050 rarely matches.  My Training Status is focused on low aerobic but Edge Coach keeps giving me Recovery, Base, or Rest Days.  If I manually create the workout from Connect like Sprints, Threshold, or Anaerobic then I can move my Training Status, but then Garmin Coach doesn't recognize it as a workout and shows a skipped day basically (no check mark), and gives me another low aerobic workout.

  • same here.  I have garmin coach provide a plan which synched prporely with the forerunner 970. the edge 1050 does not see the coach plan and has another plan, not matching the tri garmin coach plan.

  • It's an embarrassment and not very motivating at the moment.  Yesterday I completed a threshold ride, which Connect recognized and counted in my plan, as shown by the checkmark.  Once I finished, naturally, my Edge showed a rest day which is expected after just finishing a workout.  I went back like 6 hours later to see what tomorrow's workout would be and it was calling for another, more aggressive, threshold workout on the same day.  At this point I'm just going to pick and choose what workouts I want for the week to balance my workout load.

    On top of this, my Edge has severe issues connecting to my non-Garmin / TACX indoor trainer, and beta firmware 30.12 is causing random reboots.  I've spent more time searching Apple Ultra and Wahoo products over the past week than focusing on my Garmin plan or stats.  Happy New Year.
