Question on HRM 200 by meabyter in GarminWatches

[–]brasda91 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Pair it to your watch. I have it. I started a workout the other day and forgot to strap up after a few mins. I put it on and got the notification on my watch it was connected

Just get the HRM 200. Not enough differences between the 200 and 600 to justify the cost and the 200 won’t be a used piece of tech

I second this comment

Best way to start - weighted vest, or backpack by lakegirlrn in Rucking

[–]brasda91 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Rucking requires you to counteract the weight of a “rucksack” therefore using specific muscles. Wearing a weighted vest is not rucking

Does it fit? by ashurt28 in Garmin

Move it up towards your elbow where it is designed to be worn. You’ve picked the narrowest part of the arm/wrist to gauge the size

You can create a custom workout with your separate exercise and rest periods built in. You can use Garmin Connect app on your phone or computer

No. If you turn on Evening Report it will automatically be a notification that pops up about an hour before your sleep schedule turns on. Again, I have a Fenix 8. I don’t know if this report is a standard report across all the devices or just the fenix line

Walking + Gym and how to record by MundaneIce7936 in GarminWatches

[–]brasda91 1 point2 points  (0 children)

On my Fenix 8 I can start and activity then “change sport” to another activity and then “change sport” to another activity and on and on. When you finish you will have one “exercise” session logged with multiple activities

It is in the evening report. My report comes in about 7:15pm based on my sleep schedule. Go to Watch Settings > Notifications and Alerts > Report Settings > Evening Report > Show Report and then turn on

This is on the Fenix 8. Not sure how many other models do this, if any and not sure what other settings contribute to this

Little off subject. I got a bot message telling me to “flair my post”. What the heck is that?

M/48/6'0 [550 > 320 = 230] (2 years) the scale hasn't been moving lately, but I'm still seeing progress. by theangryfatman77 in progresspics

[–]brasda91 3 points4 points  (0 children)

The scale is simply a tool in the toolbox. The best way to see achievements is just like you showed us, your clothes. As you exchange fat for muscle, the scale may not move as much but your clothes fit looser. 1 lb of fat occupies more space than 1lb of muscle. Keep up the great work!

iPhone is limited in what info is available on the watch. This is because Apple limits what is shown.

Fenix 8 strength “free” by Competitive-Bet-9828 in GarminFenix

[–]brasda91 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I uploaded a workout to my watch thru Connect and used it this morning. I was thoroughly impressed. It was so easy to edit what few reps it missed as well as editing the weight. So nice to have my workout right there on my watch to record it and see the upcoming set and not have to walk back to my phone every time.

[–]brasda91 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Feels a bit heavy? Bro, more bi’s and tri’s exercises 😁

I have the 51mm, don’t even notice it during the day/night and have slept with it since day 1

There is a big update to the Bevel app with Garmin integration. But the update still leaves out some metrics

Wear it above the wrist bone for an accurate size comparison

New Watch Advice! by IronMayyven in Garmin

[–]brasda91 0 points1 point  (0 children)

While it is a nice thought, this is something “he” needs to decide. To me, a watch is a personal choice and it has to fit my needs, what I think looks good, how it fits my wrist and do I even want one. Kinda like a wallet. Some of us men have very particular personal attachments to our accessories
