I love my new Garmin!!!

I purchased my watch about a month ago and I love it! I wear it daily and I am enjoying the fact that I can really focus on my fitness status. This watch has everything I need.
I am using a Coach Greg plan to train for an event and I love that the coaching is dynamic and that I get feedback!
Love this watch. I wanted a forerunner for a small wrist and this was perfect. Using the comfort Velcro band in sand and it matches the cream of the watch. Really like full stats though I’m sad we still don’t have ECG on it. Garmin please make more Velcro bands standard on the forerunners! I wear it 24/7 and my skin is too sensitive for the silicone.
This watch is top-tier for marathon training, offering detailed metrics that genuinely improve performance. However, the battery life is unreliable—dropping from two days of estimated charge to a low-battery warning in just one hour. Fix the estimation accuracy, and it's a five-star device.
I love it. The way it looks and all. The features the battery life. O my thing is I can’t receive text from my iPhone. I have read that you should be able to but mine will not work, no matter what I do. I can receive all other Messages and notifications just not texts. That’s my only complaint. Really enjoying it otherwise
After using the Garmin Forerunner 570, I can honestly say it has become one of my favorite running tools. As someone who loves running and is constantly working toward new goals, this watch has helped me pay more attention to my training, recovery, and overall health.
The GPS has been very accurate during my runs, and I love being able to track my pace, heart rate, sleep, and recovery. The AMOLED screen is beautiful and easy to read, even during those early morning or hot Arizona runs.
What I appreciate the most is how lightweight and comfortable it is. I wear it all day, not just while running. The training readiness and recovery features remind me that rest is just as important as putting in the miles.
This watch has motivated me to stay consistent and push toward bigger goals, including marathon training. If you’re a runner looking for a watch that helps you train smarter and keeps you motivated, I highly recommend the Garmin Forerunner 570. It has been a great investment in my running journey. 🏃♀️⌚️💙
Bought this to replace a Fitbit that stopped working. The 570 does fine. Quite the learning curve, but doable. Got it mostly for heart rate and fitness stuff. TIP: For more accurate heart rate data shave your arm where the watch sits. No one will notice (unless you are an ape) and the 570 will give more reliable data. It's a good watch.
