Setting Work Time and Rest Time for a Cardio activity

I usually only record my runs on my 945, but I decided to try recording my gym session this morning. Since I wasn't strictly lifting weights/doing strength training, I decided to use the Cardio activity (HIIT would be better, but the 945 doesn't have that).

Anyway, on to my question. When looking at the activity in the Garmin Connect app, I notice that there is a "Work Time" and a "Rest Time" fields. Both say 0:00. How do I set these?

When you do strength training, there is a work time and a rest time. At least if you start the Free program, you alternate between exercises and rest. And if you program a workout you can set up the same.

So for some reason, these fields are visible in your Cardio training but are not set.

I could be wrong, but I'm guessing you'll only see work time and rest time in Cardio if you follow a pre-programmed workout.

You *could* try recording as Strength, then manually changing to activity type Cardio after the fact.
