Garmin Forerunner 305 Wrist-Mounted GPS Review and sales
The Garmin Forerunner 305 Wrist-Mounted GPS was made for those who are training for running and other events, or those who want to monitor their workout routines through calorie burning, distance, and time. If you want to beat past workout times, you can do so by recording them using this device.
Basic Features
The Garmin Forerunner 305 can provide you with an exact location on maps that are very basic. You will be able to plot waypoints, choose from three exercise options, and return to saved routes you have taken before in order to compare distance and time. Even though those who exercise will benefit the most from this device, you can use it when hiking, fishing, or hunting as a way to plot waypoints that can be used to return to the same area over and over again.
This device is lightweight, waterproof, and easy to wear. It is comfortable and only slightly larger than a wristwatch.
Care and Maintenance
Because this device runs on a small lithium battery, you will have to recharge it using an included cradle or through your computer using the USB cable provided.
Other than recharging the battery, you should not have to perform any special tasks in order to maintain this device.
Training Features
There are three exercise modes to choose from if you want to plan a running, walking, or biking routine:
Quick Workouts
Interval Workouts
Advanced Workouts
All three are designed to give you a full workout that matches your current level of fitness. You can also download workout planning maps from your computer to increase variety and help maintain strength and endurance training.
In addition to workout routines, you will also be able to easily create new workout courses, return to old courses, and discover new ones by using the map to see what lies ahead.
With two buttons, you will be able to use this device quickly and easily, which means a lot when in training for a marathon or other type of sporting event. The right button controls the menu, while the left button controls the power and backlighting that allows you to view information in most weather conditions.
When you purchase the Garmin Forerunner 305, you will receive a docking center, Garmin Training Center CD-ROM, USB cable and AC adaptor, and quick smart guide so you can learn how to use the various workout options available.
