You have undoubtedly seen Garmin’s wide range of cycling computers and athlete-focused fitness trackers in your search for a reliable fitness tracker. Even though they come with a ton of features already, the brand maintains momentum by regularly delivering feature updates automatically over the air. You can begin getting acquainted with the latest additions as one for December was recently announced.

Garmin’s December feature update bulletin for wearable fitness trackers and cycling computers was just made public (via NotebookCheck). This edition has three notable additions. First of all, you may now monitor your meditation practice, which may aid in stress and anxiety management.

Your lactate threshold heart rate and other information can be used by the wearables to help you target the appropriate training intensities. As your muscles deteriorate, your level of weariness increases significantly beyond this point. Although this is computed automatically, Garmin advises against utilizing the data at first because the accuracy of threshold detection increases with additional workouts.
