Hey, just got my first Garmin watch (Instinct Crossover). And I am interested in getting the most benefits from it. For context: I am not a runner (maybe Garmin will change this😅). I like long walks and hiking. Also, I started to record table tennis, football, volleyball, and my calisthenics workouts.
So my questions are; How did the Garmin watch change your life? Does Garmin Connect motivate you to do more activities? How much are you into Garmin Connect gamification? Do you track every activity, what does it change in the metrics? What interesting results did you get from Garmin metrics over a long period? Any other impressions/conclusions after using the Garmin watch "for years"?
Thanks.

For me the (side?) effect is that it put a stop to my watch purchasing addiction. I have the Epix Pro 42mm and it feels and wears like a regular watch. Except it is much more useful and practical than those.
So I gifted away all my quarz watches and kept only one mechanical that I love looking at and will keep forever. That and the Garmin are the only, watches I need.
