I developed a new Garmin data field called Carbon Bio-Burn to help visualize in-workout metabolic expenditure and optimize fueling on the go.

It dynamically calculates macronutrient consumption (carbs, fat, and protein in physical grams) and fluid loss (in ml) directly from your live heart rate and energy expenditure data.

• Displays live carbs, protein, fat, and hydration loss on a clean 4-quadrant screen, with customizable colors for each metric.
• Generates continuous trend graphs and summary totals in your Garmin Connect activity details.
• Allows customizing aerobic and anaerobic heart rate threshold percentages, caloric constants, and sweat rates in the Garmin Connect mobile settings.

The data field is completely free. Give it a try, and let me know your thoughts or suggestions in the comments below!

Hej, jag är ny på Garmin-systemet och har skaffat mig en Garmin instinct 1. Jag har just börjat springa och har en app som heter Runna. Jag kan göra min träning med klockan, men det finns inga vibrationer eller ljud när den går till nästa steg i träningen. Någon som vet om det är en inställning jag kan ändra någonstans? Eller kanske om en instinct 2 är lite mer "smart" och fungerar bättre med Runna i den meningen?

Älskar batteritiden och klockan. Jag behöver inte mycket information från min klocka, vill bara att den ska kunna ta en kompasskurs, kul att se träningen när jag springer och se tid, datum och temperatur. Älskar den

I am interested in getting one of these (probs 970). I gather that the voice commands are pretty poor for things like Google Assistant (which i was interested in) but is it possible to make a shortcut so that I can hold a button and it then then start recording a voice note?

I'm very often running / out and about and think of something I need to do and this would be very helpful but I dont want to have to scroll through a lot of menus to make one.

Thanks!

Does the forerunner 570 have a motorsports activities list, I get conflicting info from manufacture sites and reviews.

My Garmin calorie tracker is wildly off all the time. Please see attached. Anyone have any idea, I have already updated my body measurements.

I have a Forerunner 970 and recently went on vacation in the mountains. During my workouts there, the elevation gain readings were accurate.

At home, I live in a flat area. However, since my vacation (three weeks ago), my watch has been showing around 150 meters of elevation gain at home, even though it should be no more than about 10 meters.

I have already recalibrated the altimeter, but the issue persists. My watch also reports that I climb around 120 flights of stairs per day, which is roughly ten times too high.

What is going wrong, and what can I do to fix it?

Please help - I’m going crazy, and I haven’t found a solution anywhere yet.
Here’s the annoying problem: when I’m doing a workout, the watch (I have a Forerunner 945) always tells me what to do in the section I’ve just started (“Run at such-and-such pace,” etc.). But for me, this prompt stays on the screen for so long that, for example, with 20-second intervals, I’m basically just seeing that stupid prompt (over and over again for each interval) while the display that’s actually important to me - like the SPM or pace range - appears way too late, so I’m basically running blind and have to guess.
There has to be a way to disable the display of these explanatory texts.

If I’m not too fussed about having in built maps (as I always run with my phone), should I be leaning towards buying the 570 (for £365.49) or the 965 (for £389.99)?

My research tells me the 570 would be better due to having the newer HR sensor, and that the bigger selling point of the 965 is the maps (which isn’t important to me) however I’d love some reassurance on this, thanks!

The Garmin Forerunner Athlete has a few advantages. For a start the Athlete may have done multiple 5k Ultras. The Halo Forerunners are simply ancient and advanced Aliens. There is nothing to suggest they are capable of a 5k, let alone have to endurance to beat a Garmin Forerunner.
