The Garmin Vivoactive 3 Is a Whopping $130 Off Today—And It Doesn’t Take Shortcuts When Tracking Your Health
While Garmin has many, many iterations of its signature fitness tracker, this one has some special and unique features you need to have on your radar. First of all, the device has a built-in GPS which is key for anyone who wants to log miles on-bike or on-foot with accuracy. It also comes pre-loaded with Garmin Pay, a contactless form of payment that allows you to leave your credit card at home and skip the credit card swipe.

When it comes to tracking your health, the Vivoactive 3 doesn't take any shortcuts. Along with tracking your VO2 max (a key metric for determining your overall health), your watch will also monitor your stress levels by calculating your heart rate variability (HRV) while you are inactive. "Training, physical activity, sleep, nutrition, and general life stress all impact your stress level," writes Garmin. "The stress level range is from 0 to 100, where 0 to 25 is a resting state, 26 to 50 is low stress, 51 to 75 is medium stress, and 76 to 100 is a high stress state." You'll know thy stress as well as how high your heart rate got during your fifth round of burpees.
