  • As TechRadar's Senior Fitness & Wearables Editor, I've been reviewing Garmins for years, and I know my way around these ace fitness watches. Below are the five things I do straight away when I try on a new Garmin, before it gets any use out on the roads.

The article on TechRadar by a Garmin expert outlines five essential settings adjustments to optimize a Garmin watch before using it for fitness tracking. Firstly, the author recommends setting up the Activity Profiles to tailor the watch's functionality to specific sports or activities, allowing for personalized data tracking. Secondly, Alerts should be configured to provide timely notifications for hydration, nutrition, or heart rate zones during workouts.

Fourth, System Settings like time, units, and language should be adjusted to match user preferences for a seamless experience. Lastly, Battery Saver Mode is suggested to extend battery life, especially useful for long events or when away from charging facilities. These tweaks ensure the Garmin watch is set up to provide the most accurate and useful data for the user's fitness activities.
