Recording a Strength Training Activity
You can record sets during a strength training activity. A set is multiple repetitions (reps) of a single move. You
can create and find strength workouts using Garmin Connect and send them to your watch.
1 Press START.
2 Select Strength.
The first time you record a strength training activity, you must select which wrist your watch is on.
3 Select a workout.
NOTE: If you don't have any strength workouts downloaded to your watch, you can select Free > START, and
go to step 6.
4 Press DOWN to view a list of workout steps (optional).
TIP: While viewing workout steps, you can press START to view an animation of the selected exercise, if
available.
5 Press START > Do Workout > START > Start Workout to start the set timer.
6 Start your first set.
The device counts your reps. Your rep count appears when you complete at least four reps.
TIP: The device can only count reps of a single move for each set. When you want to change moves, you
should finish the set and start a new one.
7 Press BACK to finish the set.
The watch displays the total reps for the set. After several seconds, the rest timer appears.
8 If necessary, edit the number of reps.
TIP: You can also add the weight used for the set.

Tips for Recording Strength Training Activities
• Do not look at the watch while performing reps.
You should interact with the watch at the beginning and end of each set, and during rests.
• Focus on your form while performing reps.
• Perform bodyweight or free weight exercises.
• Perform reps with a consistent, wide range of motion.
Each rep is counted when the arm wearing the watch returns to the starting position.
NOTE: Leg exercises may not be counted.
• Turn on automatic set detection to start and stop your sets.
• Save and send your strength training activity to your Garmin Connect account.
You can use the tools in your Garmin Connect account to view and edit activity details.
