Every exercise in your TZ puts you one step closer to your goal. File storage allows you to view previous workout data to help establish goals for your current workout.
Weaknesses: Build quality is poor. Wrist strap failed where it connects to watch. One of the buttons developed a crack even though the button was not used much. Chest strap does not have replaceable battery. Watch died after water leaked into it.
