Vivoactive 3 for CrossFit?

Is the Vivoactive 3 suitable for CrossFit?

Which activity is best for CrossFit? (Strength, Cardio, Elliptical,...?

Can I use it to identify individual exercises as is possible with strength training? (Frontsquats, Lunges, Push Press, Hang Power Clean, Burpees,...)

Configuring a training program for me is pointless, because with CrossFit we have a very different workout every time. (AMRAP, EMOM, FT, RFT, RD,...)

There are a few CIQ apps that work well. Currently I'm using InstaHiit and it works pretty well.

personally i find the identification of individual exercises to be a hit and miss and if you're doing single leg or single arm etc, then it may be worst. Manual is still better (to me).

as for the Crossfit timers, you can look at CIQ apps, https://apps.garmin.com/en-US/apps/4e41c2c2-014c-4a0d-b377-569d332030e8

this one has multiple timers you can utilise

Many thanks for your response.

I have already tested X-FIT.

However, that is not what I am looking for. I do not need a timer because I use the one available in the gym.

I installed "Cross-Training Touch" a few days ago and will test whether this application meets my expectations.

I will report when I have first results and experiences.

How was it. ?

unfortunately this app doesn't quite meet my expectations either. With the CrissFit, a wide variety of exercises are carried out in direct succession and the Garmin cannot differentiate between them.
