@pquirk99 2 місяці тому
I use many features of the Fenix 7X SS Pro: PacePro, newly added activities like skipping (jumping rope), custom activities (e.g. a Parkrun variant of run with a specific pace target), extra apps (parkrun barcode, parkrun results), audio alerts, a playlist of 180bpm songs, lot of GPX courses, race against a previous activity, turn-by-turn navigation, timers for exercises, custom workouts, training calendar, etc. I reread the manual every so often and learn how to use a new feature.

@goodyeoman4534 2 місяці тому
I've started keeping it on the HR screen, as I'm getting back into my 80/20 Zone 2 runs. Only took my three months to figure out you can also set HR alerts on it, too, which is really useful for Zone running.

I make a program on my laptop, import it to my watch, warming up for example would be in zone1/2 if im out of this hart-rate-zone it vibrates so i know to change pace or watch my breathing and this way i don’t have to look at my watch and go by feel until my watch vibrates
@hornsteinhof7592 Місяць тому
Useful pieces of advice! Sadly, I've been stuck with my VO2max for some years and decided to get an Instinct 2 and ECG strap with load focus, training status and recommended workouts with training readiness on top. Been keeping my load focus in check and doing the recommended workouts - with very little effect in terms of improving. I mean I like to run, but it's definitely not changing anything about my VO2max. It's been 52 when I've started three years ago (without doing cardio, just work as a farmer) and guess where it is now, with three to four weekly runs? 52 ...

Hi Running Channel, the Garmin training plans offer both pace or heart rate based options, which one is best? I recently followed the pace based training plan for my first half marathon and wonder if I chose the wrong option. The recovery runs in particular were just too slow (8:30/km). The plan did the job though, I finished my first 1/2 marathon, did I mention it was a proper trail run with 520M elevation! Also, a quick walk through of the pace pro watch screen would be good, I partly understand it but I have no idea what the bar graph thing is meant to represent! Thanks for putting the extra podcast eps on UKposts. PS Please come to Australia soon. PPS I'd love it if you'd open your giveaways/competitions to Aussies too .
@hornsteinhof7592 Місяць тому
You can use pace if you run on even territory. If there are lots of steep hills which affect your pace, then set it to heart rate.
@brucelin5842 Місяць тому

Looking to buy the FR55 since the price dropped under $200 since the new release of the FR165 🤔 very helpful video, ty
@hornsteinhof7592 Місяць тому
I can vouch for the Instinct 2 in terms of value for money. It has almost as many metrics as the Forerunner 255, but is available at the cost of the FR 55 where I live
@J0hn.Turn3r 2 місяці тому
The FR165 looks like a great 'replacement' for the FR55. Definitely looking less utilitarian and more like something you could wear all day, every day. I just wish Garmin would find a way to release a watch with proper cellular connectivity - would be game changer and shake up the smartwatch market considerably.

@rudeq86 20 днів тому
You should not rely on the integrated HR sensor though if you plan on training with HR zones. It's simply not as accurate/adaptive as a strap. So if you want to train just buy a simple strap, they're not so expensive and I believe most of them are supported now with recent Garmin watches as they support both ANT+/Bluetooth

I wore my watch for over two years solidly, only ever took it off to charge. I learnt a lot but after 4+ years of analysing my data I’ve now stopped wearing it except for recordable activities. I’ve not concluded what this mean yet but I know I wasn’t learning anything new or getting any additional value.
@goodyeoman4534 2 місяці тому
I find it too annoying to wear all the time. Especially when it beeps with random crap on the screen telling me I'm "stressed" after I've jogged up some stairs.
@Mark-ix8uv 2 місяці тому
My HRV is always balanced but is always around 45ish. I’ve read some people say everyone’s is different and I’ve also seen having a low score can mean you have bad heart conditions. My resting heart rate is 55.
@rachaelsaxer4589 Місяць тому
Mine is almost always in the 20s and 30s. I’m guessing it’s because I sleep terribly all the time (waking up a million times at night).

For longer runs/races (ultras) I find the Climb Pro screen a blessing and a curse 😂 It's nice to know you're 9n climb 6/8 and how much of the climb you have left. Not so nice when it's climb 1/14 and it tells you that this climb is 4km long 😬 Also, I set alerts to remind me to eat and drink - it's just one less thing to think about on long events 😊
