Where is the Training Status widget?

Training Status is listed in the manual and there's a picture of it on the watch face on the 245 landing page in the Garmin Store, but I can't find it on the watch. Is there supposed to be a widget for this under Performance? In the Performance widget, I have 4 screens: VO2 Max, Training Load, Recovery, and Race Predictor. I seem to recall Training Status and Recovery accessed from the same screen within the widget, but lately all I have is Recovery. Am I remembering this incorrectly, or do I need to activate the Training Status screen elsewhere?

Thanks

    You'll get a screen after completing an activity on the device with Training Status (with the other summaries from the activity), otherwise it's only available in connect for the 245 series

    Yup, I do see it there and in Connect. Thanks for responding so I can stop wondering if I'm missing something.

    Hi,

    Well I have this widget as the first on my watch. ie can have look know, showing "productive".

    So it looks like this widget is disabled/removed. Try to add via the menu on your watch, long press middle left button; scroll down to widget... Or use Garmin express

    good luck

    Hmm, interesting. It's not there when I go to Widgets > Edit > Add on the watch, and it's not there in Garmin Express either. What firmware are you on? I'm on 5.00 (561bc83).

    The available widgets in Garmin Express are: Body Battery, Calendar, Calories, Garmin Coach, Health Stats, Heart Rate, History, Intensity Min., Last Activity, Last Ride, Last Run, Last Swim, Music Controls, My Day, Notifications, Performance, Pulse Ox, Respiration, Steps, Stress, VIRB, and Weather.

    Funny, (I needed to set my watch to english to double check).

    For me it is the just the Performance widget, that always starts with the trainingstatus (like your image), and pressing a button you will get the VO2max, load etc.

    You did not accidentally paused your training stats of what so ever..

    Perhaps remove and install again the performance widget.

    Mystery solved. It's because I have Widget Glances enabled. With Widget Glances enabled, you only see the Fitness indicator and not the Load indicator. When I turn Widget Glances off, I see both the Fitness and Load indicators.
