Experience training fit for the future
Effort remains to be a constant factor in fitness—you can never get away from it. You can’t achieve your desired results without sacrifice, be it through holding back on your favorite desserts, or by going the extra mile during your workouts. But without the assistance of highly-skilled trainers and dieticians, oftentimes, our efforts go in vain – directionless, and needlessly exerted.
Luckily, fitness technology has greatly developed in recent years, now capable of guiding and helping you through your fitness journey—you’d be surprised by what they can do now. Effort and exertion will remain present, but now directed and optimized to maximize your potential.
We’ve rounded up a list of five must-have high-tech fitness equipment.
The Garmin Forerunner 965 and 265 Smartwatch
The Forerunner 965 is equipped with a titanium bezel, a 1.4-inch AMOLED display, and a battery life of up to 23 days when put on smartwatch mode. It currently holds the record for having the world’s longest battery life for a running watch with an AMOLED display.
Unique to the Forerunner 965, the watch comes equipped with the Stamina and Acute Chronic Workload Ration features to track and help users manage their physical exertion throughout a run, to prevent “bonking” by overexerting too early in a run and to determine overall training load metrics for proper training scheduling respectively.
This smartwatch is designed for marathon and triathlon enthusiasts who will benefit from features like Wrist-Based Running Dynamics, where users can access detailed metrics through on-wrist running dynamics including stride length, and vertical oscillation directly from the watch in real-time.
On the other hand, the Forerunner 265 comes with a Ground Gorilla Glass 4 lens, with an option of a 1.3-inch AMOLED display, featuring a battery life of up to 13 days or a 1.1-inch AMOLED display (on the Forerunner 265S) featuring a battery life of up to 15 days. The smartwatch includes performance monitoring tools from Garmin Firstbeat Analytics such as VO2 max, performance condition, training effect, and more.
The Forerunner 965 retails for Php 37,660.00 and the Forerunner 265 at Php 28,250.00. For more information about Garmin Philippines, visit their website or Facebook page.

For those unfamiliar, resistance bands are a great alternative to traditional weights. Compact and easy to use, these heavy-duty elastics can be used for various exercises for any muscle group.

It also comes with a training app that provides you not only with exercises and programs that you can follow, but, AI that can also track and monitor your performance.
