Why can't I manually create a HIIT workout on the Connect app and then download it on Garmin Venu?

Hi! Why can't I manually create a HIIT workout on the Connect app and then download it on Garmin Venu? It says the Venu is  "not a compatible device" to send my own HIIT workout to the watch, and I read that you can make your own HIIT workout (ie 20 seconds on, 10 seconds off...40 seconds on, 20 seconds on) manually and I want to be able to do a HIIT workout. I saw online that "if you want to send a pre-set workout to the Venu watch with animations, that is compatible" but I thought I could make my own HIIT workout with my own interval durations. "Find a workout'" is compatible but "Create a workout" is apparently not?

Thanks!

  • I'm running into the same problem. Just spent 40 minutes creating a custom HIIT workout just to have it say my Venu Square isn't compatible. Rage We don't even have a standard HIIT option to choose from or I wouldn't have wasted my time creating a custom one! 

  • My understanding is HIIT is only available for Venu 2, not Venu or Venu SQ.  On those devices you can create a custom workout using “cardio” though.
