DSW target settings

Hi,

I just replaced my FR255 with Venu 4. One importnant thing that I am missing is how to setup Daily Suggested Workout to be similar to what I have on FR255. On FR255 I have set up pace for running and power for cycling as a target. Then FR255 shows a bit different workouts for running and cycling. Venu 4 only shows basic info like "Endurance, 145bpm" for both, with heart rate as target. 

This taken yesterday (Venu 4 in Polish, but it says "Endurance training"). 

Running suggestion (Polish - aerobic capacity). For cycling same, aerobic with bpm as target on Venu 4 vs sprints with power on FR255. 

So how do I:

1. Setup DSW targets to pace for running and power for cycling

2. How can I get different workouts for running and cycling

It is not about different trainings suggested (endurance vs sprints), but about target settings, and separate suggestion for running and cycling (for example running training is shorter)

Venu 4 is great, but I really miss having DSW with different targets and differ per sport, to the point I an considering a return.

Thanks a lot for any help or suggestions!

    When you set up the DSW you should be able to go to Today's Workout and press the top right button and the option "Do Workout" or "Settings" should show up. If you select "Settings" you can scroll down and select the Running Target to Pace.

    Hi,

    there is no "settings" when entering Daily Suggested Workout. There are two options - "Do workout" and "More", neither has a "settings" option that would allow changing target type for an activity.

    What is interesting - when I setup Garmin Coach I get exactly what you describie, but then I do not get "Daily Suggested Workout" at all. When I enter "Run" and select -> Training -> Today's Training, Venu 4 tells me that today training is cycling traiing. So with Garmin Cycling Coach I do not get "Run" suggestion. That makes no sense - people go on business trips, people get bikes serviced, etc.
