An Impressive Range of Features
With exceptional versatility, the Garmin Venu 2 watch is a perfect companion at every moment of your daily life. Its remarkable capabilities support you and allow you to take care of yourself.
Equipped with the Health Snapshot process, it gives you the ability, through a 2-minute test, to analyze vital data such as heart rate, breathing, stress, and pulse oxygen saturation. The latter measurement is extremely reliable thanks to the presence of the Pulse Ox sensor.
The Body Battery energy monitor is capable of assessing your body's state of fitness to encourage you either to exert yourself more or to rest. You also keep a close eye on your hydration and sleep, through its different phases.
You monitor your progress across 31 different disciplines including running, swimming, and even golf. Furthermore, you are free to create your own workouts or choose from the 1400 already integrated. Animated exercises are included, and the advanced strength training program displays your records as well as the areas of your body affected by your session.
Achieve feats with music by installing Spotify, Deezer, or Amazon Music, and easily do without your smartphone. You receive all your notifications such as SMS, emails, or other alerts and can opt for contactless payment via Garmin Pay.
For added security, the real-time location tracking feature sends your location to your contacts via GPS. If an incident is detected, the place where you are is automatically transferred, without the need for your intervention.
Boasting a 22-hour battery life with GPS and 8 hours if you pair it with your favorite songs, your new ally follows you durably. Count on 11 days for basic use and activate the economy mode to extend longevity.

Technologies
-
Ant+
Wireless technology enabling the automatic transfer of data to the computer when it is within range of the watch.

-
Fréquence cardiaque
Permanently display your beats per minute to help you improve your physical condition.
-
Entraînements avancés
Offers advanced training functions (Fartlek, 30-30, intensity session, pyramid, etc.) and customizable options
-
Mesure Physiologique
- Stress Score: Determine if an increase in fatigue is occurring or imminent. To get the most out of this feature, measure at roughly the same time and under relatively similar conditions.
- Performance Conditions: Measure a real-time assessment of your pace variability and heart rate. A score of +10 means you are ready to take on your challenge and can expect to run under good conditions.
- Lactate Threshold: Eliminate empirical evaluations and precisely determine the speed at which you should actually run using your lactate threshold. Determine exactly when you start to fatigue quickly (for well-trained runners, this threshold occurs at about 90% of their maximum heart rate).
-
Body Battery
Optimize your body's energy reserves by using heart rate variability, stress, sleep, and other data to assess your fitness level or when you should rest.
-
Pulse Ox
Pulse measurement, a pulse oximeter measures the amount of oxygen (relative to the maximum capacity) in the blood as it moves through your body.
-
LiveTrack
Incident detection and assistance request functions.
