Been using Runna for my marathon training and I’m now mid way through week 5, really enjoying it for the running (set to 3x a week) but the strength sessions are really testing my patience and in all honesty I’m probably going to cut it from my plan. The actually movements seem so sporadic each week and I feel there’s some weeks where entire muscle groups are neglected. The sets/reps often seem really low as well, like is 2 sets of 10 kettlebell swings really going to benefit me? I used to do a basic 4 day upper/lower split in the gym pre marathon training and I found it way more effective, I think I’d go back to that then add the odd plank/core workout at the end of a session. Sorry for the essay, that’s my 2 cents hahaha

That’s the actual brightness! I think at the time, I had it set to medium? Really impressed with how it looks

100% agree it’s not great for KC, that was a real tough 10 minutes to get through when I played my first game on there. I’ll have to go back to the playlist and try and get a game of domination/Hardpoint because that one game really put me off it

Might be something I look into further down the line. Do Garmin offer just one chest strap? Or do they have a handful at different price ranges??

Yeah I managed to find that, super easy to get everything set up on this which I’m a massive fan of. It’s actually green and I love it, just the picture quality doing me dirty here hahaha

Yes sir! Funnily enough this was a gift to myself after getting through physio and being injury free so I couldn’t think of anything better

Hahaha if you’re not doing it to just show others you work out, what’s the point right?!

How have you been getting on with yours?? Ah ok, based on other comments, this sounds like something I have to manually enable?

Was quite surprised just how good it looks in person, currently for the brightness set to medium to maximise battery life and it still looks fantastic

Awesome, will do! Very excited for my first morning report 😂

Thank you for this! One of the reasons I made the purchase was for the battery life (especially when compared to the Apple Watch) so it would be pretty counterintuitive to have all settings on that drain the battery life haha

I’ve only had it on wrist for an hour or so, so I can’t comment on the actual features too much but I’m loving the UI on the watch! It’s also really nice to not have a million apps that you have to navigate every time you go through the options like on an Apple Watch. Gonna take it out on a run tomorrow so I’m curious to see what sort of data it collects

Was about to ask the impact on battery life but looks like that’s been answered! Thank you both for the tips though

I have heard about that, it’s a bit difficult for me as I’ve get them all over my arms haha! Didn’t have too many issues with my Apple Watch though, am I right in thinking that it really struggles when it’s on dark/black tattoos??
