Hi, @RREED1010, in your app you should be wble to choose which "exercise shortcuts" appear in your Blaze.  You can add "workout" back in.

Hi there @RREED1010! It's great to see you in the Community! 😄

As @Julia_G mentioned, you can add this from your dashboard. For that, go to the "Account" section located at the lower right corner of your dashboard. Here, scroll down to Exercise Shortcuts and following Julia's instructions, be sure to select "Workout" and any other activity you'd like to see on your Blaze. You can also remove activities you don't want to see and it's important for you to sync your tracker afterwards for it to take the changes.

Let us know how it goes!

Prior to updating my Blaze a couple of weeks ago I had the exercise option called "workout" which I used for my yoga classes. That feature disappeared after the update. How does everyone track their yoga activity now?
Thanks.

go to your tracker settings through the web or the app and add workout back in.

Looked in my phone and web app. Don't see the option you are talking about. Can I undo the update so I can have my functionality back?

[Tamara_G]

It isn't there. I don't have the Exercise Shortcut option in the link you posted.

Hi, @Tamara_G, no workout functions were lost in the recent update.  If you let us know what OS you are using for your app, and exactly what you are trying to do, someone will be able to help you.

@Tamara_G some have found that the app shows the workout as being on the Blaze while the Blaze shows otherwise.. In this case either rearrange the events or remove workout then add it back in. 

Other people found they needed to go to the add exercise, a list that could be 12 or more entries. 

If it doesn't show in either place then I would suggest doing an add device., with the replace option, replacing the current Blaze with itself 

[Tamara_G]

iOS 10. I don't have any of the options being described.

[Tamara_G]

Trying to do the same thing as the OP. The "solutions" that are being described are not available on my phone or web app. I am using iOS 10.

Go to your device page, tap the Setup device, choose replace, now continue to answer the questions, replacing the Blaze with itself.

Hi there @Tamara_G. Good to see you around! 🙂

Maybe some graphic guidance can help. First, from your Fitbit app, go to the Account section which is located at the bottom right corner of your screen as you can see below:

Once you go there, tap on the picture of your Blaze at the top right underneath your name.

Scroll down and look for the option that says "Exercise Shortcuts"

After adding the "Workout" in the "+ Exercise Shortcut" option, make sure to sync your tracker and you should be all set. Also @Rich_Laue @Julia_G, great to see you around! 🙂

If you need more help, let us know!
