    Thanks for sharing. I didn't know about the calibrate feature, will definitely use that in the future!

    Ben using Garmin for over a half of year and trust me, it is waaaaay better than Apple. Love the glow in the dark watch bad. Law enforcement approved!

    Hi there, great video!! Is the Garmin vívoactive 5 capable to connect with apps for weight lifting, tracking workouts?

    If you make bands, can you make a silicone one that's for like almost 10in wrists?

    I would love to see a video on a cheaper options to HRM and/or foot pods, Garmin's look great but they are not cheap and a lot of us don't need all the fancy dynamics just a little more data and better HR tracking

    I’m an Apple Watch user. I want to switch to garmin. Which garmin watch do u recommend? For strength training at gym, counting steps, light cardio. I will sync to my fitness pal

    Anyway to input hill/elevation workouts? I know I can do it later in Garmin Connect, but then again it won't calibrate on 3rd party apps.

    I am assuming you have to be BT connected to the treadmill for the calibrate option to show? As a Fenix 6 pro user the manual says it has that option but no such item shows up in the menu once the run is complete. Of course my treadmill doesn't show up when I start a run either.

    Hi, did the Garmin pod give the correct data when it's clipped on the shoe? because the new run pod manuals says it that should be clipped on pants

    I have noticed that some cardio machines could connect directly with your watch via Bluetooth. The part that sucks it most of them are more compatible with Samsung and Apple. I try my best to use my Garmin for outdoor runs and my Apple watch ultra for indoor cardio. I enjoy both watches, have epix pro 2 for couple of months. Love the design and look to it. but also have the ultra :)

    I have a running pod and it explicitly says to use it attached to shorts behind your back. And not to use it on your foot!

    •  Місяць тому

      And it’s not a foot pod, it’s a running pod!

    Good vid - The calibration work pretty well on my super dumb treadmill. I use an Epix 2 Pro with the HRM Pro+ most treadmill runs. I wanted to try something else for a comparison and ordered an NPE Runn sensor a few days ago. Get a few hours of outdoor runs with the HRM strap and it will improve calibration. That is the Tox watch face is anyone wanted to know ha. Tox and Teko are pretty nice.

    thank you very much for your review .. i love garmin but still i stick to apple watch .. the big difference for me when is use apple watch feature "gym kit" to pair my watch to the treadmil or elliptical cross trainer and really it give me a very big difference .. i wish one day that i will see the same feature in garmin watch to pair with machine directly.

    What if you have an old treadmill which does not have Bluetooth at all. Can one just use the treadmill activity selected and use that ?

  • @mralvin6804
    @mralvin6804 Місяць тому

    Thanks for the video! Is the distance spot on when using the foot pod or do you still find yourself having to calibrate the distance after your workout?

    • @piotrrostow

      It usually is provided there's some outdoor running completed prior for Garmin to learn your arm swing

  • @charlielimena3536

    Can garmin Connect show live activity data such as Pace, HR, time duration etc while running on treadmill as second display rather than looking at watc? Polar Beat app can do that with any polar watch

    What I miss when defining a treadmill workout is the ability to set the treadmill's incline.

    No matter how often I calibrate my FR965 to the same exact treadmill in my gym it’s always way off, sometimes above and sometimes below, every time I calibrate and it’s off 0.5 - 1.5km :-(

    • @blueshun
      @blueshun Місяць тому +1

      If you are not running steady state and not at same pace as last workout, calibration will never be accurate.

    • @ChrisAbces123456
      @ChrisAbces123456 Місяць тому

      I only do recovery runs with almost the same pace every time, this shouldn’t be the issue :)

    Also, that's not a foot pod, it does not track steps at all.

    Dude, unless you are doing identical workouts, calibration will never work as stride length differs between speed.
