Wearing vivomove luxe all day but forerunner 245 for sports?

Hi. I wear my vivomove all day but I plan to get the forerunner just for making runs and weight training.

Will this mess up somehow my activity data? I read that body battery doesn't sync but won't my vivomove know there I worked out and match the metrics to the body battery? Or just wear both watches while working out?

Anyone here who has this setup?

If you don't wear the vivomove then it won't know.

After the workout with my forerunner I will strap on my vivo again and the activity is in the connect app so my vivo should know..?

I do exactly as you describe, and it works great. You are correct that the metrics come from the mobile app (or rather Garmin Connect the online service), so it syncs both ways.

sounds good. same setup?

So when I do a workout with my forerunner 645 ( which doesnt have body battery anyway) will the training/activity show up on my vivomove bodybattery graph (so it knows I have done activity)?

Yes it does. Both watches sync to the app, which does the body battery calculation.

I just read on garmins site there if you train with a watch without BB it will NOT be taking into account on your BB metrics even if you have a watch with bb

Ok, that _might_ be relevant. Your initial question mentioned Forerunner 245 which has BB. While later on you changed to 645, and I don't know if it supports BB or not. My setup is a Vivomove Style and a Forerunner 245. And that works.
