DAILY WORKOUT SUGGESTIONS

View  your entire week of daily suggested workouts, which adapt after every  run or ride to match your performance and recovery as well as the races  coming up in your Garmin Connect™ smartphone app calendar.

BODY BATTERY™ ENERGY MONITORING

PULSE OX

For altitude acclimation or sleep monitoring, a Pulse Ox sensor5 uses light beams at your wrist to estimate how well your body is absorbing oxygen.

This  feature uses chronological age, your weekly vigorous activity, resting  heart rate and BMI to estimate if your body is younger or older than you  are. Get tips to lower your fitness age.

INTENSITY MINUTES

Track  how many minutes of vigorous activity you’re getting, when you earn  them and during what activity. You can even view them as a data field  during timed activities.
