the primary data source for everyday use and for training purposes.
From the Garmin Connect app menu, select Settings.
Primary Training Device: Sets the priority data source for training metrics like your training status and load
focus.
Primary Wearable: Sets the priority data source for daily health metrics like steps and sleep. This should be the
watch you wear most often.

Syncing Activities and Performance Measurements

You can sync activities and performance measurements from other Garmin devices to your fēnix watch using
your Garmin Connect account. This allows your watch to more accurately reflect your training status and
fitness. For example, you can record a ride with an Edge bike computer, and view your activity details and overall
training load on your fēnix watch.
Sync your fēnix watch and other Garmin devices to your Garmin Connect account.
TIP: You can set a primary training device and primary wearable in the Garmin Connect app

Recent activities and performance measurements from your other Garmin devices appear on your fēnix watch.

About VO2 Max. Estimates

VO2 max. is the maximum volume of oxygen (in milliliters) you can consume per minute per kilogram of body
weight at your maximum performance. In simple terms, VO2 max. is an indication of athletic performance
and should increase as your level of fitness improves. The fēnix device requires wrist-based heart rate or a
compatible chest heart rate monitor to display your VO2 max. estimate. The device has separate VO2 max.
estimates for running and cycling. You must run either outside with GPS or ride with a compatible power meter
at a moderate level of intensity for several minutes to get an accurate VO2 max. estimate.
On the device, your VO2 max. estimate appears as a number, description, and position on the color gauge. On
your Garmin Connect account, you can view additional details about your VO2 max. estimate, such as where it
ranks for your age and sex.
