Forerunner 970

I had been lifelong garmin wearer and (amateur) competitive runner for almost 20 years, but i am in the maintenance phase of life (I still run / race). But for me, my watch is becoming more of a lifestyle watch / heart rate monitoring tool. I would like to have closer analysis of any heart irregular

As someone who has used the Garmin Forerunner 965, then the 970, and now the Amazfit Cheetah 2 Ultra along with the HRM600, I’m overall very happy with Amazfit. That said, there are still a few things I miss from Garmin. On Garmin, I appreciated features like the web UI, daily suggested workouts, an

I think if you’re okay sacrificing the torch, the Forerunner 965 could be the best fit for your use. It’s almost half the price of the new 970, has great battery life, and still gives really solid fitness/running data. The 970 does have the latest Gen 5 sensor, but for the most accurate readings, yo

Not the Fenix but I switched from AWU2 to Forerunner 970 since the battery life on the AWU was not enough anymore with tours getting longer and longer.I thought I'd miss the apple watch for its smart capabilities but never looked back honestly.Apple Watch is the better smart watch but for everyone t

I hate carrying a phone so I use it for notifications, texts and emergency phone calls when out and about plus Apple Pay. I prefer my Garmin Forerunner 970 for exercise though.

Garmin watch :) Forerunner 970 is just perfect for running. Garmin’s phone app is trash, but I can type my trainings there or via web to sync with the watch and analyze the data afterwards. And the metrics are processed on the watch, so even without internet connection, I can run :)

Some people complain that Garmin is absolutely terrible for strength training. These issues usually come from people wearing larger watches like the Fenix, Forerunner 970, or Enduro 3. If your wrist is thin and you are wearing a massive 47mm or 51mm watch, it is not going to stay snug while you trai

Garmin Forerunner. Great GPS, fantastic battery life, lots of running data, and models at a wide variety of price points From the new Forerunner 70 / 170 models to the mid-range 570 and the top 970 model Or you can buy slightly older models like the 165, 265 or 965 Check out DC Rainmaker for reviews

Its kind of dumb to compare watch released in 2022 (955) with a watch released in 2026(pace 4) Garmin have improved a lot since fenix 8 imo.Their recent software updates to newest models (F8, venu4, 170,570,970,E3 etc) specifically due to moving to common OS have given notable health features.

Forerunner 745, 955 and now a 970 but haven't raced with it yet. Multisport every time. Who has time to stop and activity, save it, find and start a new one? This is a race, not a workout. I just hit the lap button at timing belts as I don't trust the auto transitions either.
