ELECTRONICS BUYING GUIDE

Wrist-mounted tech is the best way to have all your stats close to hand, which is really useful for a variety of reasons. Knowing your speed, distance and elevation is essential because it means you can properly plan your pace and nutrition throughout your activity to ensure you’re able to make it to the finish safely, as well as checking your estimations against the facts which will be useful when you’re planning routes in future. Once you’re back from your adventure, reviewing your route allows you to help others in the local area, and seeing your stats means you can easily track your progress towards your goals - and show them off on social media, of course.

It might be where they're most at home, but these watches aren't just for the outdoors. Whether it's a HIIT workout, pilates class or making use of one of the watch's own animated workouts, they're a perfect companion for indoor activity as well as outdoor. 

On top of being handy for workouts, wrist-mounted tech is also great when it comes to calculating those essential recovery periods. The technology in these watches can measure your exercise output and recommend recovery time, helping you to avoid injury and reachyour goals in record time.
