Run Analysis

The watch will help you evaluate running techniques using detailed Running Dynamics statistics that will measure your foot-ground contact time, step length, step height, or left and right foot usage. It tests your fitness during training as well as in its first minutes. Depending on your performance, it will reveal potential overtraining and will also suggest rest periods.

To monitor advanced statistics, the watch uses the HRM-Tri sensor (optional). It is waterproof and its battery lasts for up to 10 months.

Ideal for a bike

For biking, the watch is equipped with a number of handy functions. In particular, you will appreciate the speed sensor, wattmeter or pedalling frequency measurement. It also calculates the aerobic endurance indicators "VO2 max". In addition, it will show you the current height calculated by GPS. You can view more detailed data in your Garmin Connect account, such as the height profile or the statistics of the acquired and lost height metres.

Analyse your swimming technique

Measure your fitness while swimming in nature or in an indoor pool. The intelligent watch system recognizes your swimming style, measuring the pace, the number of pools, and the distance swum. Demanding users will also appreciate recording the number of strokes and the evaluation of the overall effectiveness of your swimming using the SWOLF score.

A great way to get data is to use the HRM Swim or HRM Triple heart rate sensors during swimming. Data is recorded in the internal memory and synchronised immediately after leaving the water or after the training. The battery lasts up to ten months depending on usage. Both sensors resist the pressure of depth of up to 50m. Furthermore, the HRM Swim sensor has a gripping surface for reduced swimming resistance.

Wide possibilities of further use

In addition to triathlon activities, the watch handles a variety of other sports such as rowing, cross-country skiing, hiking or fitness training. You do not have to measure the heart rate only when doing sports. Because of the low weight, eight you will not even mind the watch on your hand. You can measure your heart rate throughout the day. The watch then evaluates not only the pulse but also the day-to-day motion. You can also keep it on during the night to measure the quality of your sleep.

When connected to your smartphone, the watch can show incoming calls, SMS, emails, and lots of other notifications to suit your needs. This connection can serve as yet another interesting feature. During exercise, all the basic information such as current position, heart rate and your speed can be transmitted to the Internet. As a result, your training can be followed by other people wherever you are.
