Description

Strength Timer turns your Forerunner 55 into a proper gym companion. The FR55 has no built-in Strength profile, so this app fills the gap: one screen, one button, and your workout saves to Garmin Connect as a Strength Training activity. WHAT YOU SEE - Total workout time (pauses not counted) - Set timer (counts up) or rest timer (counts down) - Live heart rate - Current set number HOW IT WORKS 1. Press START to begin. Heart rate is already warm on the Ready screen. 2. Finish a set, press BACK/LAP. Rest starts. 3. Rest runs out, watch vibrates. Overtime counts up as +0:00 so you know how long you really rested. 4. Press BACK/LAP, or shake your wrist, to start the next set. Rest never auto-starts the next set, so your set times stay accurate. QUICK REST CONTROL - Ready/Work: UP/DOWN picks the rest preset (0:30, 1:00, 1:30, 2:00, 3:00, 4:00, 5:00). Your choice is remembered. - During rest: UP/DOWN adds or removes 15 seconds, no menu needed. SHAKE TO START When rest is over, shake your wrist to begin the next set. Hands full of chalk or a barbell? No button needed. PAUSE, SAVE, SUMMARY Press START to pause. Resume, save, or discard (discard always asks to confirm). After saving you get a summary: total time, sets, average rest, average and max heart rate. GARMIN CONNECT Each set and each rest is recorded as a lap. Activity type is Strength Training. No GPS, so battery use stays low. DESIGNED FOR FR55 Big numbers, color-coded phases (green work, blue rest, red overtime, yellow paused), plus text labels so it reads without color. Always-on friendly. NOT INCLUDED (yet) Reps, weights, exercise names, and the native Garmin Connect set table. Sets are stored as laps. PERMISSIONS - Sensor: read heart rate and wrist motion (shake) - FIT: save the activity to Garmin Connect No data leaves your watch except the activity you save.
