Fitness Age Problems

My set up: Venu 3, Index Scales and Index BPM.

I'm having problems with Fitness Age function. When I switched from Venu 2 Plus to Venu 3, my Fitness age jumped 7 years. This coincided with some travel, so I thought maybe it was due to lack of training. But the Fitness Age feature seems to be buggy since switching to Venu 3.

Earlier my watch notified me my Fitness Age had lowered to 41, but the Connect App is showing 46. When I check the App, it informs me that I have 0 of 3 recommended vigourous days per week, but the App also shows my daily average vigourous minutes over past 4 week is ~30 minutes. My weight is measured daily on the index scales, and my blood pressure every couple of days.

Is there a known bug in the Fitness Age feature on Venu 3?

I just checked mine and it's the same as you. Watch is showing 43.5 years and app is showing 47 years. Definitely a bug. My mental age is 15.

Seeing some other users reporting the same on other devices:

Forerunner 255: Fitness age is suddenly wrong
Venu Sq: Fitness Age showing 0 Activity Days
Garmin Connect Mobile: My garmin connect for fitness age no longer shows vigorous days even though I log plenty of minutes per week

Try manually entering a new and correct current weight, as mentioned here:

I found another old thread about this issue, and several users suggested manually re-entering your body weight to restore the correct fitness age. I did that and it reset my fitness age back to where it was. The reference to having 0 vigorous days over 4 weeks is gone and it now indicates again that I am on target with my vigorous days. All is well again.

If none of this helps, contact Garmin to open a support case - https://support.garmin.com/

I have the same problem since the latest update. It has put my fitness age up 3 years telling me 0 intensity days over last 4 weeks, yet they show on other screens. Activity hasn't changed, my HRV has correctly increased by 1, my resting heart rate hasn't changed, and my weight has diminished by 1.8lb.
