I agree I'm tired of putting pilate unsted of martial art. Please add martial art
I agrre, even knowing that we can't use our Garmin when doing martial arts or combat sports training, it would be nice to be able to log the activity and register metrics like bpm's during warmup and cooldown…
Although there's a Martial Arts widget on the watch itself when I look at my activities on the app/desktop the dropdown doesn't have Martial Arts, or dance, and I'm sure many others. Maybe you could implement customizable categories instead of just offering "other" - that way you don't have to add ALL the possible activities to the drop down, as there are 100s and it would make it unusable!!!! Just give us the ability to name our own categories?
It'd be nice if we could create custome activities and share them with contacts in connect so that we wouldn't each have to build them from scratch.
And, if enough people like an activity, it could eventually be added to the default lists.
+1 to that... Martial Arts is needed at least on the web interface of Connect so that an activity can be edited to Martial Arts (and to the watch interface of the instinct).
Currently, that's my only barrier from buying a Garmin for my son who is training for a black belt in Taekwando.
When manually saving an activity there is a wide variety of activities including kite boarding, wingsuit flying, eSports, offshore grinding. There is no option for martial arts. Can martial arts be added as an activity type? Currently I have to set it as other. There are many obscure or rare activity types and I believe martial arts are much more commonly performed.
