• Your heart rate is a good measure of exercise intensity.

• Training in certain heart rate zones can help you improve

cardiovascular capacity and strength.

• Knowing your heart rate zones can prevent you from

overtraining and can decrease your risk of injury.

If you know your maximum heart rate, you can use the table

heart rate zone for your fitness objectives.

If you do not know your maximum heart rate, use one of the

calculators available on the Internet. Some gyms and health

centers can provide a test that measures maximum heart rate.

The default maximum heart rate is 220 minus your age.

About Heart Rate Zones

Many athletes use heart rate zones to measure and increase

their cardiovascular strength and improve their level of fitness. A

heart rate zone is a set range of heartbeats per minute. The five

commonly accepted heart rate zones are numbered from 1 to 5

according to increasing intensity. Generally, heart rate zones are

calculated based on percentages of your maximum heart rate.

Setting Your Heart Rate Zones

The device uses your user profile information from the initial

setup to determine your default heart rate zones. You can set

separate heart rate zones for sport profiles, such as running,

cycling, and swimming. For the most accurate calorie data

during your activity, set your maximum heart rate. You can also

set each heart rate zone and enter your resting heart rate

manually. You can manually adjust your zones on the device or

using your Garmin Connect account.

Hold UP.

Select Settings > User Profile > Heart Rate.

Select Max. HR, and enter your maximum heart rate.

You can use the Auto Detection feature to automatically

You can perform a guided test to estimate your lactate

threshold

Select Resting HR, and enter your resting heart rate.

You can use the average resting heart rate based on your

user profile information, or you can set a custom resting heart

rate.

• Select BPM to view and edit the zones in beats per

minute.

• Select %Max. HR to view and edit the zones as a

• Select %HRR to view and edit the zones as a percentage

of your heart rate reserve (maximum heart rate minus

resting heart rate).

• Select %LTHR to view and edit the zones as a percentage

of your lactate threshold heart rate.

Select a zone, and enter a value for each zone.

Select Add Sport Heart Rate, and select a sport profile to

About Lifetime Athletes

A lifetime athlete is an individual who has trained intensely for

many years (with the exception of minor injuries) and has a

resting heart rate of 60 beats per minute (bpm) or less.

Setting Your Power Zones

The values for the zones are default values based on gender,

weight, and average ability, and may not match your personal

abilities. If you know your functional threshold power (FTP)

value, you can enter it and allow the software to calculate your

power zones automatically. You can manually adjust your zones

on the device or using your Garmin Connect account.

Hold UP.

Select Settings > User Profile > Power Zones > Based On.

Select an option:

• Select Watts to view and edit the zones in watts.

• Select % FTP to view and edit the zones as a percentage

of your functional threshold power.

Select FTP, and enter your FTP value.

Select a zone, and enter a value for each zone.

If necessary, select Minimum, and enter a minimum power

value.

Activity Tracking

The activity tracking feature records your daily step count,

distance traveled, intensity minutes, floors climbed, calories

burned, and sleep statistics for each recorded day. Your calories

burned includes your base metabolism plus activity calories.

The number of steps taken during the day appears on the steps

widget. The step count is updated periodically.
