Garmin Connect‪™‬ 4+

I have been a user of the app and a Garmin watch (Venu) for about five years now. I can say I am overall happy with what it provided. I like the watch makes me aware of my overall fitness by measuring the steps, heart rate, calories, etc… and it is able to show progress over periods of time. I think the watch can’t measure some functions correctly such as sleeping time, and climb…. But if you assume a +/- 5% for each over a long period of time then you can measure how well or bad you are doing. As I said, I am happy with the watch and the app and I thought it was worth recommending it.

I am referring to issues in analysing the data when using Garmin coach training plans. I realised every result after a workout (running) the feedback from garmin was based on overall ave pace includes warm up and cool down and a lap press where I believe you can do some stretching before the main run. This should not be included in the training effect as this was meant to getting ready prior to the main workout. The training effect must be based on the main workout only not including the warm ups and cool downs. I am halfway of the garmin coach training plan and so far the suggestions are pretty good except for that training effect interpretation which I disagree.

Overall I love the app, the built it GPS let me records the places I went. This is the main reason of choosing Garmin over other fitness / smart watches. The design and the GPS.
However for this app still need more improvement on the sleep statistics. I watching ipad on the bed , and it indicate me as sleeping. I sleep at 1230, and the graph showed slept at 1108pm. So maybe add a new option for us like “ press ‘sleep now’ before we really close our eyes “?
Wish I can check the exact timing on sleep stage statistics like how I check my heart rate and stress too .The press and hold function .

Oh ya can you add in the function to record menstruation too ?
