no cycling vo2 max update

Hello,

I have been on my indoor bike with a power meter and a hr strap (both connected to forerunner 955 solar) quite a bit recently but my vo2 max seems to be stuck at November last year.

I've tried resetting the watch hr zones and maxhr for bike but still no change in vo2 max, as if it doesn't get calculated; all is working ok for running

many of my indoor cycling have sections of 20 min at z2 or higher and my ftp has been increasing, but no recording of vo2 max

what am I doing wrong?

thank you

  • I've now been on several phone calls with customer service, who although very kind were quite useless, and all they could say is to try to reset the watch. Which I've done multiple times.
    came across this blog post by Felix Wong which looks similar to what I'm experiencing, thus trying out his solution which regard disabling automatic detection of max HR and LTHR, in his case the missing vo2 max was while running, in my case it's cycling so I also disabled FTP autodetection.
