Garmin Coach Plan not sync'ing on Edge 850

3033016

This has been reported before.  But, it remains a problem.

I mostly bike as my cardio exercsie.  I got the Edge 850 and was excited to see the new features.  In general, I love being able to follow my Cycling Coach trainings on the Edge.  I like the voice prompts and the graphic displays.

I also have a Forerunner 965 and an HRM 600.  But, the Garmin Coach Plans are not getting sync'ed on the Edge.

I previous tried to make the Edge 850 my Primary Training Device.  That was a big mess.  I was getting 3 completely different suggestions between the Forerunner, the Connect App, and the Edge.  So, I changed my Primary Training Device back to my Forerunner.

Now, at least the Forerunner and the Connect app are sync'ed up with respect to the Coach suggestions.  But, the Edge is frequently out of sync.

If the Edge is correct, I use it and love it.  If it is not, I do the training with my Forerunner and the Edge in Extended Display Mode.  But, that is not as good.  It does not provide the great feedback that the Edge would provide.

    If you are seeing issues with the Garmin Coach plan synching between the Forerunner and the Edge 850 I suggest powering the watch off and back on. If the issue persists you will need to remove the watch from the Garmin Connect application, and the phones Bluetooth, then power both off and back on. Once completed pair both devices back up and sync. 

    These devices also have a feature called 'Daily Suggested Workouts', which are not part of a Garmin Coach plan. These suggestions are device specific, and are not transferred from watch to the Edge.
