Description
Know Your Zone

The Garmin Forerunner 225 is the first Garmin GPS running watch with wrist-based heart rate. A colourful gauge identifies your heart rate zone and beats per minute in real time: when it’s grey, you’re in your warm-up zone, which starts at 50 percent of your max heart rate; blue is your easy zone (starts at 60 percent of max); green is aerobic (starts at 70 percent of max); orange is threshold (starts at 80 percent of max); and red is your maximum zone, which starts at 90 percent of the maximum rate your heart can beat.

In addition to using GPS to calculate distance and pace, the 225 has a built-in accelerometer. This allows it to capture distance and pace data when you’re running on an indoor track or treadmill, with no need for a separate foot pod accessory. It even doubles as an activity tracker, counting the steps and calories you burn all day. Plus, it will remind you to move if you’ve been sitting for more than hour. When you get that cue to move, just walk for a couple of minutes to reset the inactivity indicator.
Get Connected
Forerunner 225 offers connected features like automatic uploads to Garmin Connect, our free online community where you can save, plan and share your activities. Just download the free Garmin Connect Mobile app to your smartphone and then pair your watch.

Setting Your Zones
Out of the box the Garmin Forerunner 225 sets your zones based on your age-adjusted max heart rate estimate of 220 minus your age. You can adjust these zones so you can customise your watch as needed, either on the Forerunner 225 or at Garmin Connect, Garmin’s free online community. There, you can also create advanced workouts or download free training plans, send to your watch and get coach-like guidance.
How It Works
Forerunner 225 uses an optical sensor that shines light into your skin and then measures the amount of light returned.

Because there are slight changes as blood pumps through your wrist, the sensor detects those changes and uses a sophisticated filtering process to determine your heart rate. A light seal on the back of the watch blocks out ambient light to help ensure proper heart rate detection.
