Garmin Philippines has launched the new Forerunner 255 series with new features such as full triathlon support and enhanced smartwatch features. The Garmin Forerunner 255 series is now in the Philippines and it is improved from the Forerunner 245 series. One of the new features is the Full triathlon support that can switch up a workout routine with triathlon and multisport activity profiles. During races and brick workouts, you can easily toggle with a single button press.
There is also the Morning Report feature
that allows users to receive the day's weather forecast and daily workout
suggestions. It will also inform users about last night's sleep quality and HRV
status. The Race Widget includes a race day-specific performance prediction,
race day weather, and a countdown clock. The HRV sensor tracks heart rate
variability while sleeping to get a better handle on recovery and an overall
wellness picture. You can be guided by the Garmin Coach for training for a 5K,
10K, or half marathon
The Forerunner 255 series provides
performance monitoring technologies to help athletes push their boundaries
while providing individualized training and recovery insights. With dozens of
integrated sports apps, including triathlon, cycling, pool and open-water
swimming, track running, and others, athletes may also change up their
exercises.
The Wrist-based Pulse Ox3 and the Body
Battery, which display current energy levels to assist athletes in determining
the ideal periods for activity and rest, are also included in the series.
Additionally, it helps women by offering menstrual cycle and pregnancy
tracking, which enables them to modify their training schedules in order to
prepare for upcoming races.
Built-in safety and monitoring features
include incident detection, help, and LiveTrack to let loved ones follow you on
a run or ride, whether you're exercising alone or with others. After a workout,
the Forerunner 255 series will automatically upload activities to Garmin
Connect, a free site without a membership where athletes can examine all of
their health and fitness data, connect with friends and compete with them, sign
up for challenges, and more. The Forerunner 255 series is brimming with
connected capabilities that allow users to make the most of their wristwatch.
These features include smart social and SMS notifications, as well as built-in
audio that can store up to 500 songs from Spotify.
