Dear Garmin Team,
I would like to suggest an enhancement to the way strength training and mobility routines are organized in Garmin Connect and compatible Garmin devices.
It would be very valuable if Garmin could offer a structured option based on the NASM Corrective Exercise approach, especially the four commonly recommended modules:
- Inhibit — myofascial release techniques, such as foam roller or lacrosse ball exercises
- Lengthen (or Mobility) — static stretching and mobility-focused flexibility work
- Activation — isolated strengthening or activation exercises for underactive muscles (this one already exists)
- Integrate ( Exercise )— integrated functional movements that reinforce proper movement patterns, can be understood as the Exercise already implemented
This structure would help users organize corrective exercise, mobility, warm-up, recovery, and strength-training sessions in a more systematic and purposeful way.
Today we only have options such as Warm-Up, Activation, Coll-down and the addition of Inhibit, Lengthen ( Mobility)
For example, a user could build a routine in Garmin Connect with sections such as:
Inhibit: foam rolling calves, glutes, lats, or thoracic spine, etc
Lengthen (Mobility): static stretching for hip flexors, hamstrings, calves, or chest
Activate: glute bridges, band pull-aparts, dead bugs, or scapular activation drills
Integrate (Exercise): squats, lunges, step-ups, carries, or other functional strength movements
Adding these modules would make Garmin’s strength-training ecosystem more complete, especially for users who follow structured approaches to movement quality, corrective exercise, injury prevention, mobility, and long-term athletic development.
Thank you for considering this feature request.
