A stunning AMOLED display, sapphire lens, and titanium bezel complete the look of this luxury-class sports watch. The Forerunner 970 is packed with all of Garmin’s training expertise and helps you plan and monitor your workouts and recovery. Full colour maps and navigation plus route creating functions ensure you stay on the right path.

Adaptive training programs respond to data measured during workouts and rest – the watch detects if you’re overexerting or if you have the capacity for more demanding training than originally planned. Training programs are available for running, triathlon, cycling, and strength training.

Right after waking up, the Forerunner 970 gives you a morning report that includes, in addition to weather information, a personal readiness score based on sleep quality, recovery, and training load.

The evening report includes a reminder about sleep needs, tomorrow’s training plan, weather, and upcoming events.

Heart rate variability, recent workouts, and VO2 max estimation help you monitor your fitness level and fatigue.
