Garmin Reviews
We provide Garmin reviews for their famous line of GPS fitness devices. Garmin has created a line of sports and fitness equipment that utilizes the companys' GPS expertize to create a unique product line. Garmin Forerunner gadgets for running and triathlons and Garmin Edge equipment for cycling are leading edge GPS devices with just about every imaginable sports accessory you can dream of - many of them ANT+ compatable.
While Garmin does make some non-gps fitness monitors (like the Garmin FR60), most devices use Garmin GPS technology to provide speed and mapping capabilities for your exercise routine. Garmin heart rate monitors are generally of excellent quality. However, Garmin frequently pushes the envelope and early releases of new products inevitably have some software glitch that needs to be corrected. A small percentage of Garmin Edge devices also seem susceptible to failing early in their life.
In each of our Garmin reviews we will look at plus's and minus's of each sports devices, whether it is ANT+ compatible, a review of Garmin heart rate monitors and compatible accessories. Garmin provides one of the most complete lines of sports gadgets that utilize the most advanced technology available. Garmin also provides an online website Garmin Connect as well as an off-line software program called Garmin Training Center (GTC).
Some of the accessories that Garmin provides include cadence sensors, foot pods, heart straps and extra mounts for your bikes. Some of the Garmin Forerunner devices are designed specifically for Triathletes like the Forerunner 310XT. Several devices can be used when swimming including the FR60.
Garmin now offers an app for both iPhone and Android to allow you to use your smartphone to connect directly with your Garmin device and Garmin Connect directly without having to go to your computer.
Get your skin wet
Some problems may be caused by dry skin or exercising in the winter. If it's hot enough the monitor will begin sending your pulse to the heart monitor watch once you start to sweat. If you don't sweat a lot, some advocate licking the strap before you start exercising, squirt some water between your skin and the strap or you can use a little heart monitor gel.
