Garmin Forerunner 955

Garmin Forerunner 955 reliably monitors your physical activity

Get valuable information right after waking up and start your day right. The Garmin Forerunner watch shows you a comprehensive report on your sleep upon waking, along with your heart rate variability status and the weather forecast. You can customise the report's content to receive only the information you need. The Garmin smartwatch uses technology developed by the Firstbeat Analytics™ team to measure heart rate variability (HRV). This gives you an overview of your health, recovery, and performance during activities. The Garmin watch has more than 30 integrated profiles for precise recording of sports activities. Runners will certainly appreciate the Race Widget, which can prepare an individual training plan for a given race based on its date and nature. The Garmin Coach works similarly, offering free training plans for 5km, 10km and half-marathon routes. You can use the watch to navigate a planned route, which you can create either in the Garmin Connect app or using other supported platforms like Strava, Komoot or Mapy.cz. The Garmin Forerunner 955 smartwatch is compatible with the Running Dynamics Pod running accessory or the HRM-Pro™ sensor. Every runner or cyclist will appreciate the Real-time Stamina function, which lets you monitor your effort during performance and regulate it on the fly to avoid exhausting yourself right at the start.

The watch is great for long, endurance races

Whether you're running on city streets, in the woods or on trails, the Garmin Forerunner 955 offers detailed, full-colour built-in maps to make navigation easy. You can let the smartwatch guide you with its navigation function, and it will alert you in advance of any approaching changes. If you want a change of scenery, you can use Trendline™ to find the most popular route in your area. You just need to enter the desired distance and the Forerunner 955 will take care of the rest. During sports, you can clearly see everything important on the watch display—performance metrics, split times, distance, and a summary of key points on the path ahead.

Improve yourself with better health monitoring

On the watch and in the mobile app, you can track a wide range of important indicators about your activity, health, and rest. You can look forward to features like:

• Body Battery function—this feature gives you a complete overview of how your body is coping with stress and determines whether you are getting enough sleep, overtraining, etc.
• Wrist-based heart rate monitoring—the Garmin watch measures your heart rate throughout the day and alerts you if it is too low or too high

• Training effect—the smartwatch can determine whether your workout has influenced your endurance, speed, and power (based on aerobic and anaerobic training effect)
• Race predictor—based on your running history and fitness level, the Garmin smartwatch can predict your potential running pace for 5km and 10km distances, and even for a half-marathon
• Hydration tracking—record your fluid intake and track how much you've drunk throughout the day

The Garmin Forerunner 955 smartwatch has a host of features for all platforms

Do you want a complete overview of the route you've covered and have it mapped in detail? The Garmin Forerunner 955 makes full use of multi-band GNSS support with access to several global navigation satellite systems (GPS, GLONASS, GALILEO). You will have information about the distance covered and your speed even in challenging terrain. To make training more enjoyable or to boost motivation, you can use the built-in music player with support for music streaming services like Spotify, Deezer, or Amazon Music. You can store your own songs and playlists from these streaming services in the Garmin Forerunner's internal memory. Thanks to wireless NFC technology, you can make contactless payments with the Garmin Forerunner 955 via Garmin Pay (if supported by your bank). It also provides notifications for incoming emails or other alerts from apps installed on your paired smartphone. The Garmin Forerunner 955 also offers a smart safety and tracking feature; after pairing with your phone, you can share your current location with your contacts manually, or automatically send your location using pre-set incident detection during selected outdoor activities. If you have your Forerunner 955 watch paired with a smartphone, your family and friends can track your location in real time using the LiveTrack feature. You can easily expand the range of watch faces, data fields, or apps in the Connect IQ store (download the app to your phone).
