• All you need to know about your Training

  You aim to get better and better, this drives you through countless training hours. fÄ“nix 5X’s new Performance Widget holds all information easy to access in one place that will better track your fitness level and help you to train more efficient.

• Training Status: Tells you how effective your training is and provides guidance on whether your workouts are productive and paying off.
• VO2Max Estimator: Crunches running or cycling performance data to estimate the maximum volume of oxygen you can consume per minute and gives you an indication of your level of fitness.
• Training Load: Tells you how hard you train over a period of time no matter which activity.
• Recovery Advisor: With Recovery Timer that tells you the recommended recovery time counting down from your last workout.

More advanced indicators like your functional threshold power (FTP) and Lactate Threshold help you to better judge your actual performance level during cycling or running and the Race Predictor eventually estimates your ideal finish time for a 5k, 10k, half marathon and marathon distance races based on your current VO2max number. Training Effect 2.0 will provide beyond this aerobic and anaerobic benefit scores so that you understand whether your high-intensity interval training really pays off.

Step up your Running

Now you can go further with your running data. Garmin training features that tap into extended physiological metrics and advanced running dynamics1 can help improve your form and overall performance. These metrics include performance condition that compares your actual condition to your average fitness level, running cadence, and stride length. Make every run a personal challenge, compete against others on Strava Live Segments, get alerts for segment starts and finishes, view leaderboard rankings, and see how your current effort compares to your PR you can get.

Once paired with a compatible heart rate chest strap such as the HRM-Run™, you can access additional fÄ“nix 5X metrics3 like Stress Score to measure your actual stress level based on your heart rate variability, vertical oscillation and ratio or ground contact time and balance to make your running more efficient.

The Auto Climb/Run switch makes sure you get in any environment the right metrics – go for pace and distance once running in the flat and automatically switch to accumulated ascent and vertical speed once you start climbing.
