For those who need to perform, the Garmin Edge 705 is set to become your favourite training partner.  With the 705 you can get turn-by-turn directions to your destination, as well as optional topographic mapping for those expeditions into the unknown - all thanks to the high sensitivity GPS receiver, capable of holding a signal even under cover.  Depending on your version, you can acquire speed and cadence data, as well as the standard distance, time, calories burned as well as altitude, climb and descent. 

The wireless nature of the Edge 705 is yet another card up your sleeve.  The 705 is capable of sharing data with other similar units in a 3 metre radius - simply select 'Transfer Data' and be done.  Speaking of sharing, connect to Garmin Connect's worldwide training centre to share and compare data, routes and results with a global community.

Yield the burn with the Garmin Edge 705.

When you go cycling you don't want to bother with a GPS fitness trainer that doesn't provide the real-time data that you need - data like distance, speed, location, elevation and even heart rate-based calorie computation and speed / cadence information. You don't want a GPS trainer that won't allow you to compare that data over time to track your improvement, thanks to websites such as Garmin Connect.

Surely, you'd loathe a GPS trainer that wasn't easy to use; that didn't come with its own bicycle mount and necessary accessories such as wireless heart rate monitor and speed / cadence sensor, that didn't provide everything you need to start training right away.

No, you'd just walk right on past and choose the Garmin Edge 500, because let's face it - it's not like all the others.

Meditative, beneficial, exhausting; you know why you exercise, but how much better if only you could get an informed second opinion? Well ladies and gents with the Garmin Edge 305 the doctor is in, and yes, he does house calls. Quite simply, the Edge 305 is the kind of device that turns schlubs into pros - it automatically measures and records your efforts and allows you to get back at a later time and observe and compare those results with more recent ones. Not only that, but being so easy to set up there'll be more doing and less lollygagging - simply turn on, acquire satellites and go.

Speaking of satellites, the GPS receiver is sensitive enough to acquire a signal even beneath dense tree canopies or within canyons. Stellar. The Edge 305 even comes with Auto-Lap and Auto-Pause functions so you don't miss a beat, even if you're losing the rhythm. You don't have to go it alone either: with Virtual partner you can train against a virtual competitor. When you're done you can use the Garmin Training Center software to analyze, graph and compare your data and get advice for when you might be lagging in certain parts of your route.

The Garmin Edge 305 - you may not live forever but you'll never live twice.
