Description

Enjoy your favorite music while you train for the next race with the Forerunner 245 Music GPS Running Smartwatch from Garmin. The Forerunner 245 Music lets you use streaming music services ad-free, such as Deezer and Spotify, or playback your own audio that you store on the watch itself. Either way, you can listen to your tunes wirelessly with optional Bluetooth headphones.

While geared primarily for running, the Forerunner 245 Music also features activity profiles for cycling, pool swimming, elliptical, and more. Whatever the exercise, the Forerunner 245 Music utilizes training status monitoring to provide you with helpful performance analytics. Learn your VO2 max, aerobic/anaerobic training data, and optimal recovery time to help you optimize your workouts.

The Forerunner 245 Music also helps you monitor your health and wellness in-between workouts. The Forerunner 245 Music can monitor your sleep quality, your blood oxygen saturation with a built-in Pulse Ox sensor, and your stress levels 24/7. It’s all collected in your Body Battery data, which gauges your likely energy reserves at any given moment.

In addition to tracking and monitoring, the Forerunner 245 Music has social features, such as Garmin Connect for community support, Garmin Coach for training plans and guidance, and general notification updates from your paired iOS or Android smartphone.

Stream Your Favorite Music

The Forerunner 245 Music gives you multiple options for enjoying your favorite music while working out. Regardless of which method you choose, you can conveniently stream to a pair of optional Bluetooth headphones. One method of music playback is via streaming music services, such as Deezer and Spotify, letting you access your custom playlists for ad-free listening. If you want to play a specific set of songs or audiobooks, the Forerunner 245 Music can hold approximately 500 tracks in its internal memory.

Performance Analytics with VO2 Max

Support for VO2 max and training status monitoring allows the Forerunner 245 Music to provide ratings and feedback that evaluate your performance. It will let you know if you’re training at your peak or if you’re pushing too hard. Know how your workouts are affecting your endurance, speed, and power with aerobic and anaerobic feedback. Recovery time is incorporated as well, letting you know exactly when you can tackle your next challenge. If you need to review your history, the Forerunner 245 Music lets you access your 7 days of exercise data and can compare it to an optimal range for your personal fitness and training history.

Wellness and Sleep

When you’re not exercising, it’s important to make sure you keep stress levels in check and get quality sleep. To help make sure you’re adequately caring for your body between workouts, the Forerunner 245 Music can track light, deep, and REM stages of sleep, your movement throughout the night, and with the built-in Pulse Ox sensor, it can measure your body’s blood oxygen saturation. It also has all-day stress monitoring with a relaxation-breathing timer. When triggered, its guided breathing helps to calm you. All of this feeds into your Body Battery data, which gives you an indication of how much energy you have in reserve at any moment.
