Fitness features

The Venu 2 and Venu 2S is designed to help you understand your body better with its broad range of 24/7 health monitoring features including: heart rate (with user-configurable alerts for high or low readings), fitness age, advanced sleep with sleep score and insights, respiration, Pulse Ox, all-day stress, hydration, and women’s health (menstrual cycle tracking and pregnancy tracking). The Body BatteryTM function informs users how “charged” their body is, which proves to be helpful for scheduling workouts, rest and sleep. Lastly, the new ‘Health Snapshot’ feature allows users to log a 2-minute session to record key health stats and generate an overall report for any healthcare provider.

Secondly, the advanced strength training profiles and workouts put weight scaling and strength PRs right on the device, inclusive of new graphics to show which muscle groups were active. The Venu 2 series has also recently added new activity profiles for HIIT workouts (including AMRAP, EMOM, Tabata and custom timers), indoor climbing, bouldering and hiking.

When it is time to recharge, the Venu 2 and Venu 2S provide advanced tracking of light, deep, REM sleep stages and movements. Similar to the other Venu series, the Pulse Ox and respiration is also automatically monitored during rest. With the new sleep score powered by Firstbeat Analytics, users are able to receive a score based on the quality and quantity of a previous night’s sleep. These details plus personalised insights on how to improve sleep quality are available on the watch itself as well as in Garmin ConnectTM. The Venu 2 and Venu 2S also offers structured breathwork activities designed to promote focus and relaxation.
