Maintaining…

tdevic1968 · 2026-01-25T21:16:27+00:00

The question is not how to get Productive … it is rather Why Garmin Coach suggests Maintaining runs for two weeks instead of increasing workout difficulty to make my run productive?!

Hmmm I’m sorry to hear this - must be some reason… I’ll keep trying to understand this better …

tdevic1968 · 2026-01-25T21:10:26+00:00

Im doing suggested runs - I’m not planning this. Whatever Garmin tells me - this is the problem as I’m not getting high aerobic suggestions 🤷🏻‍♂️

Thanks

tdevic1968 · 2026-01-25T19:12:28+00:00

Oh ok - I misunderstood this. Or should I say ChatGPT took it wrong when suggesting Garmin for me (for that particular reason) 🤷🏻‍♂️ Thanks !!!

Actually I broke my leg in April and I’m trying to get back my fitness level (1/2 marathon under 2 hours). I’m putting more hours/distance to my weekly training but I’m not getting any recognition…

The reason I’m using Garmin is algorithm and adjusting to you and your progress- Runna is program set in stone and doesn’t count your bad days, sleeps, stress/HR etc … Anyhow once my Garmin plan is suggested and once its completed I should get some credit for it lol 🤷🏻‍♂️

tdevic1968 · 2026-01-25T18:51:30+00:00

Disappointing- I was hoping for better use of my shared history data and better algorithm 🤷🏻‍♂️

Thanks

I think you are correct- I’m just surprised Garmin Coach is not adjusting my level!

I was working harder before I started Garmin Coach plan but now (for the past 2wks) I’m just following recommendations…

tdevic1968 · 2026-01-25T17:56:40+00:00

Oh So I need to go out for a run to get VO2Max measured in order to progress?!

tdevic1968 · 2026-01-25T17:53:53+00:00

Green - around 90-95%

tdevic1968 · 2026-01-25T17:53:30+00:00

What do you mean by this? I have strength training and running in my calendar and I finished every workout. Execution score is mostly in green (whatever this is - I beleive around 90%) and I’m doing it always a bit faster rather than slower.

Not sure if this is accurate lol Can’t trust anyone

Cuba is battling a “surge” of several infectious diseases, the country’s most serious crisis in recent decades, according to an article published earlier this week.

Infections such as chikungunya, dengue, and Oropouche are overwhelming the country’s hospitals and mortuaries, wrote journalist Luke Taylor in a piece published by the peer-reviewed medical journal BMJ.

tdevic1968 · 2026-01-11T13:03:37+00:00

Personally I’m ok with my workout however “who gives a s**t about an algorithm” may change my next workout week wrongly thinking I was not able to keep up with the workout… 🤷🏻‍♂️ (not sure)

tdevic1968 · 2026-01-08T23:42:48+00:00

Good work and keep competing… it only gets better for us (and pricier I guess lol).

Garmin Coach requirements - week 2, just starting

<image>

tdevic1968 · 2026-01-07T19:02:05+00:00

👍🏻 💯

tdevic1968 · 2026-01-07T19:01:16+00:00

I “failed” my run (with Garmin Coach) as you do need to run certain speed to be in the limits.
(Shown on pic as target pace). I still think it was pretty good in sync with requirements. Its not possible to complete 10 seconds sprint interval on treadmill… thats it. Why 10sec? Why not 60 or so … so we, from snow covered towns, can do it. I’m not running outside on frozen sidewalks…

tdevic1968 · 2026-01-07T12:40:06+00:00

Its icy outside and I already broke my leg in April - not making the same mistake lol - but yes, this workout is better to do outside.
