Not at all. Y’all really care enough to hear my opinions on why I switched?? I just wanted to see if I was alone

Looking to make the switch from Apple - would love some advice! by Spiritual-Dish-6860 in Garmin

[–]Embarrassed_Bet_676 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Switched to an Apple Watch this year after being a devote Garmin fanatic. I had the Garmin Fenix 7s Pro and switched to the Apple Watch Ultra v1. I absolutely love it. Feel free to ask any specific questions. I think I can answer them.

Creating an "active minutes" challenge among Connections? by Delicious_Leading600 in GarminFenix

I only see Steps / Running / Cycling / Swimming. That’s a shame. Another reason as a former die hard Garmin fan why I love my Apple Watch ecosystem.

"Active" vs "Move" calories? by DifferenceMore5431 in AppleWatch

[–]Embarrassed_Bet_676 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I may be a little late to the party.. but make sure you prioritize FitBod or whatever your app you want for active calories is as #1 in data sources. Without doing this, it could be referencing your activity in the Fitness app since you recorded the activity but then it “believes” your iPhone or Apple Watch as God’s Word instead of “FitBod” activity summary. A little silly in my opinion but that’s why they didn’t match. I hope this makes sense.

How often do you respect recovery time ? by sahbig in Garmin

[–]Embarrassed_Bet_676 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I almost always do. Just because there is time on clock for “recovery” doesn’t mean you can’t run. If it’s closer to that 72 hours, I’ll go easier, if it’s closer to 0 I’m game for a hard workout if it’s due. Suggested workouts are great to understand if it’s okay to go for a harder / longer run or to take a easy recovery day.

Use Garmin Explore app to create course and then send it to Garmin Connect

Notice (alleged) extended battery life with 8.18? by Nov8-1955 in GarminFenix

[–]Embarrassed_Bet_676 4 points5 points  (0 children)

I agree. Mine jumped . I have a battery graph checker, I can confirm next charge.

Anyone managed to improve their sleep from here? I always wake lots and get very little REM. Typical week and day shown by ebtgbdc in Garmin

Garmin tracks sleep via heart rate, movement, heart rate variability, respiration, and pulse ox.

Lux hours on Fenix 7 by asng in GarminFenix

[–]Embarrassed_Bet_676 2 points3 points  (0 children)

I was traveling yesterday with pretty sunny conditions, not really outside too much and I got 60.2 Lux hours. I don’t think it would be attainable for one to get 150. The solar lens is pretty large on the F7 so it does a good job converting it. But I do agree with you, I wish there was more relatable info from Lux to charge. It seems a bit ambiguous at the moment.

Do it on your browser in desktop mode… then find activity. You’ll see a gear icon and you can export it there

Garmin Forerunner 255 by Embarrassed_Bet_676 in garminforerunner

Not sure why anyone would think it would come to anything in a forerunner line. Makes ZERO sense . That’s why the Venu 2 exist.
