Nice vid! Got my fenix 7 yesterday. Appreciate the tips! Looking forward to checking this out in the gym👍

Love seeing how you use your Garmin watch as a hybrid athlete! Feel like there are lots of review channels, but this was awesome to see how you do it in real life. Inspiring me to get a Garmin as a primarily strength athlete but novice runner.

Just came across this video. I use my Garmin for running, swimming, bike (lots of videos) and strength work. This is the first one I have ever seen. Thanks. Very clear, very useful.

Great tips, thanks!

yeah!! you have finally come back!! thanks for video!

Good stuff bro!!! Very simple and easy to follow!! Great shots

I was blown away with what i actually bought. Just wanted it for heart rate tracking and it literally recognized most of my exercises in my freemode workout. Never put in anything yet he recognized 8/10 exercises 😂

I’ve had my Garmin nearly a year. This inspired me to use it more!

great video, thanks. tutorials (step by step) would be great, especially with your experience, what works best.

Wow I feel like I found a new work out companion! Thank you for your video!

Great video thank you for making this!

Thank you for the info! I'm new to Garmin and relatively new to strength training. It would be very helpful to see those tutorial videos.

Hope this video helps. Which WATCH are you using in 2023??

I never new you could see the muscles used when inputing a training, so interesting!

Great job with your hands El. Your videos on Garminproducts have been way more useful than the big channel videos I've been seeing.

Thanks for the tips.

Nice, succinct video on real world problem. I already own the watch and strength training is not it's primary function, so I don't want to buy a different app or use a different process for this. This video was the most helpful one on the topic I found. Oddly, I had to search outside of YT to find it.

Thank you so so much!! This video was so helpful for me I just got a Garmin and taught myself how to program in my strength workouts using this video!

I was trying to discover how to edit my reps after reach set. Thanks!

Would love more Garmin videos! Enjoy your info. Thanks!

This was a good video for me buddy thanks, you understand the different type of gym goers the organised 1-3 didn't suit my messy ADHD style so learning about free mode and after editing perfect for me!

Hi, I just discovered you because of the Garmin vids, the quality of your content is so good! Could you maybe do more stuff on Garmin? Like day in the life, more strength training/lifestyle stuff? Would be super nice to watch

This is great info thanks. A tutorial on how to create and use this workouts would be nice, specially on how to pass from one exercise to another with rest periods etc. Sometimes the order of the exercises on the gym changes when the equipment is being used. Using a Epix 2.

I just discovered Garmin's custom workouts today. I do both running and strength training and really appreciate the ability to create my own workouts. Amazing feature!

This watch is insane. I can't believe all the stuff it does without begging me to pay for some BS subscription. Just got my 965 this week. I'm in love.

Good tips. Thanks for highlighting the "Free" option in Strength. It was useful for me.

Love you channel and just found you. I'm new to Garmin and i just got a Venu 3S from my partner. I wonder if I can use this watch as you are or does mine not have the same training app? Thank you for your time

The rep counter is really helpful. It can also track a lot of exercises automatically like squats, bench press and curls. I do not want to miss it in the gym anymore. I've been using it for 6 years now. It's also great for skiing, golf, running and cycling. I even use it for racket sports, but it does not track your shots or anything related to just that acitivity.

Thanks a lot, I was looking to buy the Forerunner 255 and all review vids mostly focus on running. Since I am more into strength training and outdoor cycling, I hope all the features you showed here apply to the FR255 as well.

Thank you

Tip #4 is helpful for powerlifting when I wouldn’t know what the percentages would mean. Crazy how much the Garmin can handle!

In depth tutorial would be great, i.e. best way to set up steps and rounds in create a workout. Also, a walkthrough of what buttons to press during the workout to advance to next set or next exercise etc.

I'm switching from AW to Garmin, epix pro arriving next week and getting some prep work done. Very helpful videos! I'm going to use it for cycling, hiking and strength and just wondering about warm up sets here. Do you just not hit the lap button to start until your main working set and then stop again before the warm up sets for the next exercise or do you program warm up sets too? Keep up the great work on the videos!

If I'm doing a CrossFit workout where it's strength movements and cardio movements mixed and for time, how would I create that as a custom workout? I'm having a hard time because it seems like it wants either strength with all the list of exercises, OR cardio with laps/times/distance with no choices for movements recorded.

Long Beach run club!! 💪

Good video. I didn’t know you could do that with a Garmin

WoW great video, thanks. Can you do also such video about HIIT training? I mean how exactly "Free HIIT" in Garmin works, when to push "round" before start of a round or after? Would the warmup be also recorded with Free HIIT Workout? Best regards Artur

How are you getting to that bench press Max setting

after watching some of your videos, i'm now really thinking about getting a garmin haha - just one question: does it automatically adjust the weight (lets say you bench 200 for 10 reps and on the next workout it automatically suggests you to hit 205 or sth like that)??

Does the watch allow you to skip a workout (ie machine is occupied) and come back to it later in the session?

Can you do the strength workouts so it’s just tracking calories? Without having to do the rep counter?

Thans sir

If the weightlifting rep counter is not accurate and you need to manually adjust it then it's pointless. You might as well just not use it and type it in manually.

Does it work with the forerunner 265?

Nice video thinkng of making the investment thanks

Plz make more videos like this. Not a lot of em out there

Moving from the Apple Watch and looking for more in-depth Garmin videos, I got the Instinct Solar (first version) to get initiated, is there a way for you to compare each watch or give insight as to what each watch is catered for or reason to get a certain watch or maybe categorize said watches into different categories or maybe like which budget series to first get into before digging deep? Also, (still going through your vids)compare health kit to Garmin connect and show which apps work better and lastly, do you know of a good water app tracker that works with Garmin connect? I have a hydrate spark bottle but was hoping to get something integrated. Thanks!

Does this apply to venu 3?

Thanks for creating this. Any solution on the best way to put progressive overload type of workout? What would be the best way to put in the same exercise with sets and reps but with different weights - the only solutions seems to be creating same workout with just different weights.

Do you know if samsung pro 5 can allow you to write the exercise list?

Question if you are doing dumbell workout or concentration biceps curl or dumbell row on right and left side do you split the set? or you just combine the rep and weights on both side?

Thanks for the video! I do not own a Garmin, only a Polar H10 chest strap. Do you save time with this app or is it necessary to adjust the data manually on a regular basis? Does it make your life easier or train more often? Is it possible to generate a mont-long plan and the watch reminds you to actually train? I would be interested in more video showing all the features.

Epix Pro 2?

Hello, very nice video, thank you. I have one question. Could you explain where we can find the benchmark exercises please? I looked oll over the app, but can not find them. Thank you

How do you like the garmim paired with iPhone ? Had an Apple Watch but got rid of it wanted more of a sports watch instead of a smartwatch excited to get it started

Can we add custom exercises to the exercise library? They don't have some of the exercises listed.

Strength training with a Garmin Venu 2 watch is a chore. You constantly have to enter weights since the watch "forgot" which weights you were using in the previous set. The number of reps is for the most part OK. But then there is no way to enter the exercise performed on the watch (you have to correct after the fact in Garmin connect), even on watches that have the hardware for voice input. And sadly, Garmin is not very responsive with respect to suggestions.

Can you add multiple exercises in the warmup section?

This is a good video, but can I just create a simple workout without any reps, sets, or any other crap? Just the gym time and heart rate?

Garmin Felix 6 sapphire 😎 in 2023 is still a beast

I actually use applewatch 7 and huawei gt runner,but never had an garmin,i plan to buy in few months tactix7,and in fall the next ultra if it will be more battery friendly -at least 5-7 days

What watch are you using for gym strength ?

Which garmin men Smart watch is best for strength training

Im on a budget i can only buy vivosmart 5 do you think vivosmart 5 can do this?

What are the benefits of having the strength workout on your watch besides the math? does it do something to the other metrics the watch is tracking? It seems like a lot of work to enter in the phone, compared to the paper tablet I keep? I do like how you walk through the process most people spend less than a minute on a feature, just so they can talk about as many features as possible.

how does the timer function work in training mode? can I set a rest timer while training mode is on?

Which watch are you using in this video?

Is this workout mode also available at the garmin forerunner 965

Can you increase reps and weight on each set? I couldn't manage to do that.

I'm looking for a smartwatch that I can follow my training at the gym, so would be any Wear OS device that can run an app like Hevy or Strong. Since Garmin have his own training builder, do you think it's better? It's exclusive for strength training, or I can custom the reps and rest time?

Garmin have too much to improve in this area.

what is the best Garmin watch for the GYM ?

Any one using the forerunner 255 for strength training like this?

What app?

Bro which Garmin watch is this ???

u have to pre enter ur workout? sometimes u dont know how long u will be in the gym or what exercises youre gonna do

Im not seeing the benchmark exercise option in the app any ideas?

Can Garminn watches show the protein intakes on the watch itself?

You look like Eric Morales.

Seems to me that it’s not very practical for strength training.

The gym section on the phone is a waste of time

my tip is to throw away those stupid smart watches and gain weight instead. focus on training not on fancy shit on your wrist! if you can't count your own reps, don't go to the gym xD

for bodybuilding adding editing etc etc ... its just wasting time ... good for beginners ... its the same like almost 7 yeas seen the beginners in the gym taking notes on paper for each series of reps etc etc .... for experienced bodybuilders this watch is just good joke :)) !

I can’t take anyone who pours dry powder into their month like a 14 year old seriously

Terrible product, never will consider buy any garmin product! Terrible design bad user experience
