Garmin Fenix 7 Pro: Review roundup

Garmin Fenix

Garmin recently released a new Pro model for the Fenix 7 and Epix sports watches. Given how well received the original Garmin Fenix 7 was, it is no surprise to see mostly positive reviews coming out for the Fenix 7 Pro. With a new flashlight, new optical heart rate sensor, and updated MIP display, it seems one of the best sports watches is now a tiny bit better. That said, many also feel the upgrade wasn’t quite enough to justify its existence.

Vitruvian Trainer+ Home Gym: In-depth review

Over the past six weeks, I’ve been putting the Vitruvian Trainer+ Home Gym through the paces. The Vitruvian Trainer+ is a smart strength device that uses magnetic digital loading and a variety of attachments to mimic barbell, dumbbell, and even a cable training at home.

It is similar to Tonal in many ways, with the key differences being it does not need to be bolted on a way, is easily movable, loads up to over 2X the weight, and is much more consumer friendly (both in price and subscription model). Read below to see our full review.
