As you’d expect from Garmin, there’s a long list of metrics and tools for monitoring performance, recovery, and health. Use the Garmin Connect app to input desired metrics, create custom step-by-step multisport workouts, and send them directly to the smartwatch.
Runners have dedicated options with the Garmin Forerunner 570 and Forerunner 970 to establish cross-mile or kilometer course points, or use the device to suggest trimming data to the finish line. Skin temperature, breathing regulation, and other health metrics are also easy to view and assess after a workout. Upgrade to the Forerunner 970, and the build quality improves. It includes a scratch-resistant sapphire lens, a titanium bezel, and a built-in LED flashlight. An improved heart monitor is also included, while the ECG app adds more value by detecting signs of an irregular heart rhythm.
