The Garmin 405 & Garmin 705 are both electronic tools athletes love to own and use. The 405 is part of the Forerunner GPS sports watch range designed for runners. The 705 is aimed at cyclists. Both devices are seriously loaded with impressive functionality that helps you get the most out of your training.
The 705 Edge cycle computer is GPS-capable, bike mounted and technologically smart. It can be used both as a navigation device and as a personal trainer. It tracks and monitors on-bike performance. It will lift you to perform at your peak. It digitally measures and displays cadence, heart rate, detailed street or road directions, power data (using ANT+ technology) and more. It even wirelessly shares data with other Edge 705 units, if required.
The Forerunner 405 is easy to use as well as comfortable and stylish to wear. It constantly monitors performance metrics like time, speed (pace), distance travelled, calories burnt and heart rate (when paired with an accompanying heart rate monitor). Each run is stored in memory so that it can be reviewed and analyzed to monitor performance over time.
You can customize the data screen for instant feedback, even as you run. It is also possible to download recorded courses to compete against a previous workout session.
The 405 watch represents the ultimate in personal training technology. Once you have done the work and logged the long miles, the intelligent and innovative ANT+Sport wireless transfer technology in the watch will download data automatically to a computer. No cable or physical hook-up is required. Data can also be upload from a computer to the watch.
The data flows wirelessly through cyber space to the computer, ready for you to analyze, categorize and share with your team and friends. You can also send workout data from your computer to the Forerunner wirelessly.
The Edge 705 has comparable capabilities. When it arrives in the box, the Edge 705 (HRM, Speed-Cadence) comes with a heart rate monitor, a speed (or cadence) sensor, bike mounts, AC charger, USB cable, quick reference guide and a 12 month warranty.
In summary, the Garmin 405 & Garmin 705 will help any athlete maximize their training effort. These smart devices are high performance personal trainers. Information-packed videos are available at the company website providing comprehensive reviews of each unit.
