Custom workouts doesn't appear on watch

So, I created a custom workout for push-ups.

I first tried to use Cardio activity profile but it doesn't allow me to send it to the watch due to incompatibility.

After that I created the workout using Other activity profile. All good, it allows me to send the workout to the watch, I even scheduled it on the calendar, but the problem is I cannot see the workout on the watch.

I deleted previous custom workouts from the watch (custom running workout do appear on the watch) but I still cannot see anywhere the workout.

Any suggestions?

    Did you end up figuring out this problem? I have tried making Custom workouts, then added it to My Calendar on the Connect app. Plus I downloaded the Garmin Express program on my computer and tried to sync it to my watch. Still did not work. Additionally, I have made up a workout through a selected activity in the Cardio tab, and it still wont upload. Is it to do with compatibility? 

  • I didn't solve it, I can upload only custom Running workouts. If you select Cardio it won't let you send it to the watch, you mush chose Other activity but it won't appear on the watch.

    Did you try to contact with Garmin? Is that a bug or just how FR45 works?

  • I know this is old, but hoping it is helpful for others with this problem. If you look here:https://support.garmin.com/en-US/?faq=lLvhWrmlMv0vGmyGpWjOX6, only run and bike workouts are compatible with the FR45. I wanted to create a rowing interval workout. As a work-around, I created it as a running workout. You can then find it under the "options" for your run activity. Do the workout, then in Garmin Connect you can edit the workout and change it from a "run" to a "rowing" or anything else. It works for me, because I just wanted the timing notifications of my intervals and heart rate data after the fact.
