Indoor rowing and my Forerunner 235

Former Member over 9 years ago

Hello,

I bought a Forerunner 235, mostly for running. Works great. However, I also work out on my rowing maching (indoor), at least once a weak. I want to use the Forerunner 235 for measuring my HF. The transfer to Garmin Connect is a bit troublesome. It needs a lot of editing on the Connect-website after uploading the data. Do you guys have some advice for me?

Thanks in advance!

My understanding is that the Forerunner 235 is not capable of custom apps so you have to use "other" and do all the editing in Garmin Connect or Garmin Connect Mobile; sorry but I don't think there is a solution around it :-(

The 235 supports custom CIQ apps for a number of things. I don't recall one for rowing, but here's a forum where you can see if such an app has been requested:

and here's one in case what you're looking for might be on a different device and can be ported to the 235:

(I did a quick search on the second link and found a bunch of threads for "rowing")
