Wrist-based Heart Rate Monitors Your Ticker

Forerunner 735XT is our first multisport watch with Elevate™ heart rate technology to measure heart rate at the wrist. Now you can compete with freedom when it’s time to get on your bike or toe the line. There’s no need to wear a chest strap to see your vital stats – see your heart rate zone and beats per minute, all in real-time and displayed on a colourful gauge.

Train Your Heart Out

Wrist-based heart rate may suit your needs to a “t” on race day, but when it comes to training and recovery, you need more in-depth data. With Forerunner 735XT, you have plenty.

Here are some of the advanced metrics you’ll gain with the addition of a heart rate strap:

• Running dynamics¹ such as ground contact time balance, stride length, vertical ratio and more
• VO2 max estimate, lactate threshold2, race predictor and recovery advisor
• Underwater heart rate for swimming4

Raise the Bar for Every Ride and Run with Strava Live Segments

Forerunner 735XT is the first running watch that’s compatible with Strava Live Segments and includes a 60-day free trial to Strava Premium. With this membership, your starred Strava running and cycling segments automatically sync with the 735XT for live feedback during your activity. You also get alerts for segment starts and finishes, view leaderboard rankings, and see how your current effort compares to your PR. In addition, get post-workout access to another great feature, Strava Suffer Score, which analyses your heart rate during your workout and ranks your total activity effort, so you can see if you beat yesterday by showing you just how hard you pushed it during your workout.

Connect and Customise

Smart notifications3, automatic uploads to Garmin Connect3 and live tracking make the 735XT the ultimate smartwatch for athletes. Keep your phone tucked away when you’re on a long ride or run and get all your notifications at the wrist so you can decide to respond or keep moving. You can even customise your device with free watch faces, apps and data fields from Connect IQ™.

LiveTrack

LiveTrack lets family and friends track your location in real-time while you’re riding, and now it’s even easier to use. When you enable auto-start, you can spend more time focusing on the ride and less on the technology. LiveTrack will automatically detect when you start riding, which means there’s no need to even reach for your phone anymore. Auto-start is also compatible with the new Strava Beacon, which lets Strava Premium subscribers take advantage of the same great feature. It’s never been easier for you and your loved ones to have peace of mind while you ride.
