The routine is built in, rather than a custom workout editor. It uses barbells, dumbbells, cables and gym machines. Choose your own starting loads; you can select a day without completing the whole cycle first.
- Exercise-specific starting weights and automatic progression.
- Warm-up sets for main lifts, timed rest, and configurable rest alerts.
- Log completed or failed sets and enter actual completed reps.
- Cable weight steps of 2 kg; dumbbell steps of 1 kg up to 10 kg, then 2 kg.
- Clear work-set, warm-up and rest screens with live heart rate.
- Before saving, review a heart-rate graph with a time-aligned exercise strip, plus work-set totals and exercise results.
- English, Estonian, German, French and Spanish. Follows the watch language, with English as the fallback.
- Button controls on Fenix, Epix and Forerunner; swipe adjustment and an explicit action button on supported Venu and vivoactive watches.
- Saves a strength activity with Connect IQ fields for exercise, entered load, reps, result and workout totals.
Weights use watch preferences, kg or lb as selected in Settings. Bar weight and custom exercise load steps are saved separately for kg and lb. Existing weights retain their physical value when units change; FIT load/volume fields remain in kg. For dumbbell exercises, enter the weight of one dumbbell. Volume uses entered load × reps without doubling dumbbell loads.
Connect IQ fields supplement the activity; they do not populate Garmin's native strength exercise/set table. Display of custom fields depends on Garmin Connect and the published Store app metadata. Existing sideloaded recordings are not migrated by an update. An interrupted app process does not restore an unfinished workout.
What is new
What’s new in 1.0.3:
• Bench press and overhead press now track separate weights and progression for Push A and Push B, matching their different set and rep ranges.
• On first use after updating, confirm the starting weight for each press variant. Your previous shared weight is offered as an editable starting point.
• Exercise weight and reset menus now list each press variant separately.
• Biceps curls, hammer curls, triceps pushdowns, cable overhead triceps extensions, lateral raises and calf raises now default to 60 seconds of rest between work sets. You can adjust this using the new isolation rest setting.
• Legs A and Legs B continue to share weights and progression.
