    Fitness watch done right

    I decided to go a different route switching from the Whoop to Garmin as my run training was getting more involved. I cannot say enough good things about the Garmin Forerunner. The details and insights given through the watch and app are second to none. If you’re looking for an all around training tool, this is the training fitness watch for you!

    This Garmin Does it All!

    Ive owned several Garmin’s over the years including the top tier Fenix series. This FR255 has you covered for a fraction of what the Fenix line would cost you. I barely notice it on my wrist, the response time in the menus is super quick & the battery life is solid.

    Great for running and workout

    Running coach is great. Watch has great accuracy even on other activities. I put it in workout mode and it accurately detected that I was doing pushups and even counted my reps. I was surprised it could do that! What a delight! The music interface can be a little non-intuitive though.
