Name: Forma - Strength around your sport
Rating: 4.8 (4 reviews)
Author: Forma.Coach

Strength training that knows what else you did this week. Your Garmin already records the tennis match, the long run, the ride. Forma reads that load alongside your recovery and sets today's lifting to match. Heavy when you are ready. Lighter when you are not.

Glance at your wrist before you head to the gym and see "4/5, Push Hard, Window Open" and you know today is a solid training day. The Training Window tells you whether now is the time to push: Open, Closing, or Closed.

Free, no account:

Especially useful on watches without native Training Readiness, like the Forerunner 255 and 245. Forma works directly from your raw recovery metrics rather than relying on a built-in score. Works with Forerunner 965, 955, 265, 255, 245, Fenix, Epix, Enduro, Venu, and Vivoactive.

The on-device dose is a quick estimate. Connect a free Forma account at forma.coach for the full engine: five recovery signals (HRV status, Body Battery, sleep score, training load, and HRV trend), including training load from every activity you record in any sport, plus a complete strength workout with barbell and dumbbell exercises, sets, reps, and rest, pushed straight to your watch. Built for lifting: squat, bench, deadlift, press, programmed around whatever else your week holds.

Deterministic and rule-based: the same inputs always produce the same dose. No black box, no guessing.
