Let’s start with the latest Forerunner 70, which comes with a 1.2-inch AMOLED display, touchscreen support, and Garmin’s familiar five-button layout, which remains useful during sweaty workouts or runs in the rain. The device also supports built-in GPS, wrist-based heart-rate tracking, pace, distance, time, smart notifications, and safety tools such as LiveTrack.
It also comes with guided training features including Quick workouts that can be created using basic inputs such as fitness level, time, and intensity. The device also supports Garmin Coach plans that can adjust daily using health and recovery data, while Garmin Run Coach adds run/walk and lower-volume training options for newer runners or users easing back into training.
You will be getting daily suggested workouts, training readiness, training status, wrist-based running power, and running dynamics. It also comes with over 80 sports modes, covering running, cycling, swimming, strength training, and other activities.
The device also comes with health monitoring features, including sleep monitoring, sleep coach, HRV status, Pulse Ox, breathing variations, lifestyle logging, and Health Status.
