When the heart rate monitor memory is full, your oldest data is overwritten.You can start a timed activity on your paired fēnix device, and the heart rate monitor records your heart rate data even if you move away from your device. For example, you can record heart rate data during fitness activities or team sports where watches cannot be worn. Your heart rate monitor automatically sends your stored heart rate data to your fēnix device when you save your activity. Your heart rate monitor must be active and within range (3 m) of the device while data is uploaded.Tips for Erratic Heart Rate DataIf the heart rate data is erratic or does not appear, you can try these tips.• Reapply water to the electrodes and contact patches (if applicable).• Tighten the strap on your chest.• Warm up for 5 to 10 minutes.• Follow the care instructions (Caring for the Heart Rate Monitor, page 6).• Wear a cotton shirt or thoroughly wet both sides of the strap.Synthetic fabrics that rub or flap against the heart rate monitor can create static electricity that interferes with heart rate signals.• Move away from sources that can interfere with your heart rate monitor.Sources of interference may include strong electromagnetic fields, some 2.4 GHz wireless sensors, high-voltage power lines, electric motors, ovens, microwave ovens, 2.4 GHz cordless phones, and wireless LAN access points.Caring for the Heart Rate MonitorNOTICEA buildup of sweat and salt on the strap can decrease the ability of the heart rate monitor to report accurate data.• Rinse the heart rate monitor after every use.• Hand wash the heart rate monitor after every seven uses or one pool swim, using a tiny amount of mild detergent, such as dishwashing liquid.NOTE: Using too much detergent may damage the heart rate monitor.• Do not put the heart rate monitor in a washing machine or dryer.• When drying the heart rate monitor, hang it up or lay it flat.Running DynamicsYou can use your compatible fēnix device paired with the HRM-Tri accessory or other running dynamics accessory to provide real-time feedback about your running form. If your fēnix device was packaged with the HRM-Tri accessory, the devices are already paired.The running dynamics accessory has an accelerometer that measures torso movement in order to calculate six running metrics.Cadence: Cadence is the number of steps per minute. It displays the total steps (right and left combined).Vertical oscillation: Vertical oscillation is your bounce while running. It displays the vertical motion of your torso, measured in centimeters.Ground contact time: Ground contact time is the amount of time in each step that you spend on the ground while running. It is measured in milliseconds.NOTE: Ground contact time and balance are not available while walking.Ground contact time balance: Ground contact time balance displays the left/right balance of your ground contact time while running. It displays a percentage. For example, 53.2 with an arrow pointing left or right.Stride length: Stride length is the length of your stride from one footfall to the next. It is measured in meters.Vertical ratio: Vertical ratio is the ratio of vertical oscillation to stride length. It displays a percentage. A lower number typically indicates better running form.Training with Running DynamicsBefore you can view running dynamics, you must put on a running dynamics accessory, such as the HRM-Tri accessory, and pair it with your device (Pairing ANT+ Sensors, page 24). If your fēnix 5/5S was packaged with the accessory, the devices are already paired, and the fēnix 5/5S is set to display running dynamics data screens.1Select an option:• If your running dynamics accessory and fēnix 5/5S device are already paired, skip to step 7.• If your running dynamics accessory and fēnix 5/5S device are not already paired, complete all the steps in this procedure.2Hold MENU.3Select Settings > Activities & Apps.4Select an activity.5Select the activity settings.6Select Data Screens > Add New.7Select a running dynamics data screen.NOTE: The running dynamics screens are not available for all activities.8Go for a run (Starting an Activity, page 2).9Select UP or DOWN to open a running dynamics screen to view your metrics.Color Gauges and Running Dynamics DataThe running dynamics screens display a color gauge for the primary metric. You can display cadence, vertical oscillation, ground contact time, ground contact time balance, or vertical ratio as the primary metric. The color gauge shows you how your running dynamics data compare to those of other runners. The color zones are based on percentiles.Garmin has researched many runners of all different levels. The data values in the red or orange zones are typical for less experienced or slower runners. The data values in the green, blue, or purple zones are typical for more experienced or faster runners. More experienced runners tend to exhibit shorter ground contact times, lower vertical oscillation, lower vertical ratio, and 6 Heart Rate Features
higher cadence than less experienced runners. However, taller runners typically have slightly slower cadences, longer strides, and slightly higher vertical oscillation. Vertical ratio is your vertical oscillation divided by stride length. It is not correlated with height.NOTE: The color gauge for ground contact time balance is different (Ground Contact Time Balance Data, page 7).Go to www.garmin.com for more information on running dynamics. For additional theories and interpretations of running dynamics data, you can search reputable running publications and websites.Color Zone Percentile in Zone Cadence Range Vertical Oscillation Range Vertical Ratio Ground Contact Time Range Purple >95 >183 spm <6.4 cm <6.1% <218 ms Blue 70–95 174–183 spm 6.4–8.1 cm 6.1–7.4% 218–248 ms Green 30–69 164–173 spm 8.2–9.7 cm 7.5–8.6% 249–277 ms Orange 5–29 153–163 spm 9.8–11.5 cm 8.7–10.1% 278–308 ms Red <5 <153 spm >11.5 cm >10.1% >308 msGround Contact Time Balance DataGround contact time balance measures your running symmetry and appears as a percentage of your total ground contact time. For example, 51.3% with an arrow pointing left indicates the runner is spending more time on the ground when on the left foot. If your data screen displays both numbers, for example 48–52, 48% is the left foot and 52% is the right foot.Color Zone  Red  Orange  Green  Orange  RedSymmetry Poor Fair Good Fair PoorPercent of Other Runners 5% 25% 40% 25% 5%Ground Contact Time Balance >52.2% L 50.8–52.2% L 50.7% L–50.7% R 50.8–52.2% R >52.2% RWhile developing and testing running dynamics, the Garmin team found correlations between injuries and greater imbalances with certain runners. For many runners, ground contact time balance tends to deviate further from 50–50 when running up or down hills. Most running coaches agree that a symmetrical running form is good. Elite runners tend to have quick and balanced strides.You can watch the color gauge or data field during your run or view the summary on your Garmin Connect account after your run. As with the other running dynamics data, ground contact time balance is a quantitative measurement to help you learn about your running form.Tips for Missing Running Dynamics DataIf running dynamics data does not appear, you can try these tips.• Make sure you have a running dynamics accessory, such as the HRM-Tri accessory.Accessories with running dynamics have   on the front of the module.• Pair the running dynamics accessory with your fēnix device again, according to the instructions.• If the running dynamics data display shows only zeros, make sure the accessory is worn right-side up.NOTE: Ground contact time and balance appears only while running. It is not calculated while walking.Performance MeasurementsThese performance measurements require a few activities using wrist-based heart rate or a compatible chest heart rate monitor. The measurements are estimates that can help you track and understand your training activities and race performances. These estimates are provided and supported by Firstbeat.NOTE: The estimates may seem inaccurate at first. The device requires you to complete a few activities to learn about your performance.Training status: Training status shows you how your training affects your fitness and performance. Your training status is based on changes to your training load and VO2 max. over an extended time period.VO2 max.: VO2 max. is the maximum volume of oxygen (in milliliters) you can consume per minute per kilogram of body weight at your maximum performance.Recovery time: The recovery time displays how much time remains before you are fully recovered and ready for the next hard workout.Training load: Training load is the sum of your excess post-exercise oxygen consumption (EPOC) over the last 7 days. EPOC is an estimate of how much energy it takes for your body to recover after exercise.Predicted race times: Your device uses the VO2 max. estimate and published data sources to provide a target race time based on your current state of fitness. This projection also presumes you have completed the proper training for the race.HRV stress test: The HRV (heart rate variability) stress test requires a Garmin chest heart rate monitor. The device records your heart rate variability while standing still for 3 minutes. It provides your overall stress level. The scale is 1 to 100, and a lower score indicates a lower stress level.Performance condition: Your performance condition is a real-time assessment after 6 to 20 minutes of activity. It can be added as a data field so you can view your performance condition during the rest of your activity. It compares your real-time condition to your average fitness level.Functional threshold power (FTP): The device uses your user profile information from the initial setup to estimate your FTP. For a more accurate rating, you can conduct a guided test.Lactate threshold: Lactate threshold requires a chest heart rate monitor. Lactate threshold is the point where your muscles start to rapidly fatigue. Your device measures your lactate threshold level using heart rate data and pace.Turning On Performance NotificationsPerformance notifications are alerts that appear upon completion of your activity. You can turn on notifications for performance measurements, such as your performance condition and recovery time. Some performance notifications Heart Rate Features 7

Your training status is based on changes to your training load and VO2 max. over an extended time period. You can use you your training status to help plan future training and continue improving your fitness level.No status: The device needs one or two weeks of training history, including activities with VO2 max. results from running or cycling, to determine your training status.Detraining: Detraining occurs when you are training much less than usual for a week or more, and it is affecting your fitness level. You can try increasing your training load to see improvement.Recovery: Your lighter training load is allowing your body to recover, which is essential during extended periods of hard training. You can return to a higher training load when you feel ready.Maintaining: Your current training load is enough to maintain your fitness level. To see improvement, try adding more variety to your workouts or increasing your training volume.Productive: Your current training load is moving your fitness level and performance in the right direction. It is important to plan recovery periods into your training to maintain your fitness level.Peaking: Peaking means that you are in ideal race condition. Your recently reduced training load is allowing your body to recover and fully compensate for earlier training. You should plan ahead, since this peak state can only be maintained for a short time.Overreaching: Your training load is very high and counterproductive. Your body needs a rest. You should give yourself time to recover by adding lighter training to your schedule.Unproductive: Your training load is at a good level, but your fitness is decreasing. Your body may be struggling to recover, so you should pay attention to your overall health including stress, nutrition, and rest.About VO2 Max. EstimatesVO2 max. is the maximum volume of oxygen (in milliliters) you can consume per minute per kilogram of body weight at your maximum performance. In simple terms, VO2 max. is an indication of athletic performance and should increase as your level of fitness improves. The fēnix 5/5S device requires wrist-based heart rate or a compatible chest heart rate monitor to display your VO2 max. estimate. The device has separate VO2 max. estimates for running and cycling.

Training, sleep, nutrition, and general life stress all impact how a runner performs. The stress level range is from 1 to 100, where 1 is a very low stress state and 100 is a very high stress state. Knowing your stress level can help you decide if your body is ready for a tough training run or yoga.Viewing Your Heart Rate Variability and Stress LevelThis feature requires a Garmin chest heart rate monitor. Before you can view your heart rate variability (HRV) stress level, you must put on a heart rate monitor and pair it with your device (Pairing ANT+ Sensors, page 24). If your fēnix 5/5S device was packaged with a heart rate monitor, the devices are already paired.TIP: Garmin recommends that you measure your stress level at approximately the same time and under the same conditions every day.1If necessary, select   > Add > HRV Stress to add the stress app to the apps list.2Select Yes to add the app to your list of favorites.3From the watch face, select   > HRV Stress >  .4Stand still, and rest for 3 minutes.Performance ConditionAs you complete your activity, such as running or cycling, the performance condition feature analyzes your pace, heart rate, and heart rate variability to make a real-time assessment of your ability to perform compared to your average fitness level. Performance condition values range from -20 to +20. After the first 6 to 20 minutes of your activity, the device displays your performance condition score. For example, a score of +5 means that you are rested, fresh, and capable of a good run or ride. You can add performance condition as a data field to one of your training screens to monitor your ability throughout the activity. Performance condition can also be an indicator of fatigue level, especially at the end of a long training run or ride.NOTE: The device requires a few runs or rides with a heart rate monitor to get an accurate VO2 max. estimate and learn about your running or riding ability (About VO2 Max.

In running, it is the estimated level of effort or pace. When a runner exceeds the threshold, fatigue starts to increase at an accelerating rate. For experienced runners, the threshold occurs at approximately 90% of their maximum heart rate and between 10k and half-marathon race pace. For average runners, the lactate threshold often occurs well below 90% of maximum heart rate. Knowing your lactate threshold can help you determine how hard to train or when to push yourself during a race.If you already know your lactate threshold heart rate value, you can enter it in your user profile settings (Setting Your Heart Rate Zones, page 11).Performing a Guided Test to Determine Your Lactate ThresholdThis feature requires a Garmin chest heart rate monitor. Before you can perform the guided test, you must put on a heart rate monitor and pair it with your device (Pairing ANT+ Sensors, page 24). You must also have a VO2 max. estimate from a previous run (About VO2 Max. Estimates, page 8).TIP: The device requires a few runs with a chest heart rate monitor to get an accurate maximum heart rate value and VO2 max. estimate.1From the watch face, select  .2Select an outdoor running activity.GPS is required to complete the test.3Hold MENU.4Select Training > Lactate Threshold Guided Test.5Follow the on-screen instructions.Recovery Heart RateIf you are training with wrist-based heart rate or a compatible chest heart rate monitor, you can check your recovery heart rate value after each activity. Recovery heart rate is the difference between your exercising heart rate and your heart rate two minutes after the exercise has stopped. For example, after a typical training run, you stop the timer. Your heart rate is 140 bpm. After two minutes of no activity or cool down, your heart rate is 90 bpm. Your recovery heart rate is 50 bpm (140 minus 90). Some studies have linked recovery heart rate to cardiac health. Higher numbers generally indicate healthier hearts.TIP: For best results, you should stop moving for two minutes while the device calculates your recovery heart rate value. You can save or discard the activity after this value appears.About Training EffectTraining Effect measures the impact of an activity on your aerobic and anaerobic fitness. Training Effect accumulates during the activity. As the activity progresses, the Training Effect value increases, telling you how the activity has improved your fitness. Training Effect is determined by your user profile information, heart rate, duration, and intensity of your activity.Aerobic Training Effect uses your heart rate to measure how the accumulated intensity of an exercise affects your aerobic fitness and indicates if the workout had a maintaining or improving effect on your fitness level. Your EPOC accumulated during exercise is mapped to a range of values that account for your fitness level and training habits. Steady workouts at moderate effort or workouts involving longer intervals (>180 sec) have a positive impact on your aerobic metabolism and result in an improved aerobic Training Effect.Anaerobic Training Effect uses heart rate and speed (or power) to determine how a workout affects your ability to perform at very high intensity. You receive a value based on the anaerobic contribution to EPOC and the type of activity. Repeated high-intensity intervals of 10 to 120 seconds have a highly beneficial impact on your anaerobic capability and result in an improved anaerobic Training Effect.It is important to know that your Training Effect numbers (from 0.0 to 5.0) may seem abnormally high during your first few activities. It takes several activities for the device to learn your aerobic and anaerobic fitness.Color Zone Training Effect Aerobic Benefit Anaerobic BenefitFrom 0.0 to 0.9 No benefit.
