    Does anybody know whether the Garmin Coach adjusts the upcoming workouts based on runs or other exercises I do outside of the Coach feature? For example, if I go running with friends I don't want my watch to constantly buzz me with instructions, but it would be nice if the Coach takes that activity into account as it determines what I need next.

    Is there an option to get audio guidance through headphones instead of the beep or vibration? Like what runtastic does, letting you know when you completed a mile and what pace it was... I find it weird if I must check on the watch itself while running... It would be really convenient to be able to listen to music, run without a Care and get audio cues about the workout phase all through bluetooth earbuds...

    Possibly related question- I set up a 10k program and did the first "benchmark" run today. After finishing (2min warm, 5min hard, 2min cool) I kept the activity going as I walked back to my house. I got the prompt on the watch that the program had been completed. Now I am wondering, though, with all that "extra" walking the avg pace of the event was significantly lower than it would have been if i had stopped the activity right at the end of the cooldown. Now I am wondering if this has screwed up the recommended paces for my future events? They seem awful high. Should I "re-do" the benchmark run?

It’s on my Garmin Coach workout as a step after warm up but before a cadence drill. I have no clue what I am expected to do running-wise or if necessary, the button I need to press on the watch. Any guidance you can offer would be fantastic. Thank you!

  • @joannakuriger7095
    @joannakuriger7095 3 роки тому +4

    Hi there, I have a Vivoactive 4s and am on my second coach plan the 10k. The plan is Jeff Galloways which recommends a run walk run style of training. Whilst in the running section of a work out, based on the pace that I am aiming for, I should run for 1 minute then walk for 30 seconds. I know that I can choose intervals to have the watch vibrate when I am running just on a normal run and its great. But if I am using a scheduled workout, I can't seem to add the interval notifications in. I tried running the workout in normal mode then have it recognise it as part of the program in hindsight (as I used to do on my fitbit) but coach does not seem to be able to do that. I would love some suggestions as focussing on running takes enough energy without having to look at the watch every 30 seconds to keep a consistent run walk run pattern.

      When I started the 10k training coach with 'Jeff' it gave no guidelines on how to manage the run walk run. but after the 1st or 2nd run, it gave me a video or reading which then gave the guide on the recommended run walk run times based on the overall goal pace. I now would like to know if we can add the interval run 'buzzer' into the workout plans as it is a pain having to be so focused on the watch when running. I can pre program it into a non scheduled workout and it was so much easier to focus on my running.

    Hi all, I have a Vivoactive 4 and am doing the 10klm training plan 'Amy'. Can anyone help me with this question please? All was going well to week 4 and I got to the first 'time trial' workout and completely mucked it up. I did the warmup which was 3.2k easy pace and then the rim of the watch face went grey, I wasn't sure if I was supposed to do anything or if the watch was still in it's program so I waited a minute or so and still nothing so I pressed the upper button thinking I might have to do something and the program stopped and recorded my time trial as only the warm up. I still had the 1.6k time trial and 1.6k warm down to do, these i did anyway but they didn't get recorded sadly. My question is, should I have more patient?

I have effectively paused the workout once when I met up with a friend, the only thing I had to do was choose no to the auto save feature when it came up. Hopefully this is a little helpful.
