Tai Chi Tracker

Tai Chi deserves its own activity - not a Yoga entry in your feed. Tai Chi Tracker records every practice as a dedicated Tai Chi activity in Garmin Connect, and it tracks what practitioners actually care about: rounds, pacing, breathing, and a calm heart rate. Built for Taiji, Taijiquan, Qigong, and standing practice. Two ways to train: - Open Training - no time limit, practice as long as you want - Training with Goal - set a target duration, feel a gentle vibration when you reach it, and keep going into overtime if you wish Count your rounds, not just your minutes: - Press LAP to close a round; each one is saved as a lap in Garmin Connect - The transition screen shows the round you just finished and how it compares to your average pace, so you know instantly whether you rushed it - A round-by-round breakdown after every session, with split times and your average round length During practice: - Live heart rate zone arc, readable at a glance - Bell timer - optional subtle vibration every 5, 10, 15, 20, or 30 minutes for form transitions or breathing checkpoints - Screen lock - no accidental taps in the middle of a form - Pause, resume, or discard at any time After practice: - Duration, calories, training effect, and recovery time - Minimum heart rate and breathing rate - the numbers that show how calm the session really was - HR zone breakdown with histogram, time and percentage per zone - Round splits alongside your average round - Full-session heart rate chart Keep the habit: - Weekly view - see which days you practiced this week - Practice history - your last 20 sessions with date, duration and rounds; open any one to see its stats again App languages: English, Spanish, German, French, Italian and Portuguese. Designed for Garmin: Native data-field layout, pure black AMOLED background, no clutter. Works with both buttons and touchscreen. 5-day free trial. Then $2.99 once. No subscription.
