Garmin training schedule

Goodevening,

Just two weeks ago I purchased a Garmin Edge 840 bundle pack and I am very pleased with it. I started with a training schedule generated from the Garmin Connect app and synced to my Garmin Edge 840. The problem arises that during the workout, I cannot see the workout and therefore do not know what effort is required of me. Are there more people here with the same problem? And how do I solve this?

Also, I have not yet figured out how the Power Guide works. It does not show any data. I do not own a power sensor, I only own: heart rate monitor, speedometer and cadence meter.

Kind regards,

Arjan Hoogeveen

Power guide needs a power meter on the bike you're riding against the course as it's all based on telling you what power output to ride at.

create or choose course
create power guide
sync to your garmin
when riding the course it will load the power guide and show a new screen. This screen tells you what power you should be doing currently to try and match the power guide.

I used it on a 200KM ride a couple of weeks ago and it was a good reminder to go nice and easy at the start when fresh.

Thank you for your reply! That make sense. Do you also know why my training isn’t showing during an activity?
