and the HRM-Swim™ accessory (Heart Rate While Swimming,

page 9).

Swim Terminology

Length: One trip down the pool.

Interval: One or more consecutive lengths. A new interval starts

after a rest.

Stroke: A stroke is counted every time your arm wearing the

device completes a full cycle.

Swolf: Your swolf score is the sum of the time for one pool

length and the number of strokes for that length. For

example, 30 seconds plus 15 strokes equals a swolf score of

45. For open water swimming, swolf is calculated over 25

meters. Swolf is a measurement of swimming efficiency and,

like golf, a lower score is better.

2 Activities

Stroke Types

Stroke type identification is available only for pool swimming.

Fitness Goals

Knowing your heart rate zones can help you measure and

improve your fitness by understanding and applying these

principles.

• 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 Calculations, page 7) to determine the best

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.

6 Training

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,

Running Dynamics

You can use your compatible Forerunner device paired with the

HRM-Tri accessory or other running dynamics accessory to

provide real-time feedback about your running form. If your

Forerunner 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).

10 Heart Rate Features

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 Dynamics

Before you can view running dynamics, you must put on the

HRM-Run™ accessory or HRM-Tri accessory and pair it with

your device (Pairing ANT+ Sensors, page 21).

If your Forerunner was packaged with the heart rate monitor, the

devices are already paired, and the Forerunner is set to display

running dynamics.

Color Gauges and Running Dynamics Data

The 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

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.

Go to www.garmin.com/runningdynamics 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 Ground Contact Time Range

Purple >95 >183 spm <218 ms

Blue 70–95 174–183 spm 218–248 ms

Green 30–69 164–173 spm 249–277 ms

Orange 5–29 153–163 spm 278–308 ms

Red <5 <153 spm >308 ms

Ground Contact Time Balance Data

Ground 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 Red

Symmetry Poor Fair Good Fair Poor

Percent 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% R

While 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.

Vertical Oscillation and Vertical Ratio Data

The data ranges for vertical oscillation and vertical ratio are slightly different depending on the sensor and whether it is positioned at

the chest (HRM-Tri or HRM-Run accessories) or at the waist (Running Dynamics Pod accessory).

Tips for Missing Running Dynamics Data

If 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 Forerunner

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 Measurements

These 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. For

more information, go to www.garmin.com/physio.

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 Off Performance Notifications

Performance notifications are turned on by default. Some

performance notifications are alerts that appear upon completion

of your activity. Some performance notifications appear during

an activity or when you achieve a new performance

measurement, such as a new VO2 max. estimate.

1Hold .

2Select Settings > Physiological Metrics > Performance

Notifications.

3Select an option.

Automatically Detecting Performance Measurements

The Auto Detect feature is turned on by default. The device can

automatically detect your maximum heart rate, lactate threshold,

and functional threshold power (FTP) during an activity.

NOTE: The device detects a maximum heart rate only when

your heart rate is higher than the value set in your user profile.

1Hold .

2Select Settings > Physiological Metrics > Auto Detect.

3Select an option.

Training Status

Training status shows you how your training affects your fitness

level and performance. Your training status is based on changes

to your training load and VO2 max. over an extended time

period. You can use your training status to help plan future

training and continue improving 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.

Productive: Your current training load is moving your fitness

level and performance in the right direction. You should plan

recovery periods into your training to maintain your fitness

level.

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.

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.

Unproductive: Your training load is at a good level, but your

fitness is decreasing. Your body may be struggling to

12 Heart Rate Features

recover, so you should pay attention to your overall health

including stress, nutrition, and rest.

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.

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.

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.

Tips for Getting Your Training Status

To get the most out of the training status feature, you can try

these tips.

• Run outdoors with heart rate at least two times per week, or

ride with heart rate and power at least two times per week.

After using the device for one week, your training status

should be available.

• Record all of your fitness activities on this device, allowing it

to learn about your performance.

About VO2 Max. Estimates

VO2 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 Forerunner 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. You must run either

outside with GPS or ride with a compatible power meter at a

moderate level of intensity for several minutes to get an

accurate VO2 max. estimate.

Your VO2 max. estimate appears as a number and position on

the color gauge.

Recovery Time

You can use your Garmin device with wrist-based heart rate or a

compatible chest heart rate monitor to display how much time

remains before you are fully recovered and ready for the next

hard workout.

NOTE: The recovery time recommendation uses your VO2 max.

estimate and may seem inaccurate at first. The device requires

you to complete a few activities to learn about your

performance.

The recovery time appears immediately following an activity.

The time counts down until it is optimal for you to attempt

another hard workout.

Viewing Your Recovery Time

For the most accurate estimate, complete the user profile setup

(Setting Up Your User Profile, page 6), and set your maximum

heart rate (Setting Your Heart Rate Zones, page 7).

1Go for a run.

2After your run, select Save.

The recovery time appears. The maximum time is 4 days.

NOTE: From the watch face, you can select UP or DOWN to

view the performance widget, and select START to scroll

through the performance measurements to view your

recovery time.

Recovery Heart Rate

If 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.

Training Load

Training load is a measurement of your training volume over the

last seven days. It is the sum of your EPOC measurements for

the last seven days. The gauge indicates whether your current

load is low, high, or within the optimal range to maintain or

improve your fitness level. The optimal range is determined

based on your individual fitness level and training history. The

range adjusts as your training time and intensity increase or

decrease.

Viewing Your Predicted Race Times

For the most accurate estimate, complete the user profile setup

(Setting Up Your User Profile, page 6), and set your maximum

heart rate (Setting Your Heart Rate Zones, page 7).

Your device uses the VO2 max. estimate (About VO2 Max.

Estimates, page 13) 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.

NOTE: The projections may seem inaccurate at first. The device

requires a few runs to learn about your running performance.

2Select START to scroll through the performance

measurements.

Your projected race times appear for 5K, 10K, half marathon,

and marathon distances.

About Training Effect

Training 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

Heart Rate Features 13

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.

You can add Training Effect as a data field to one of your

training screens to monitor your numbers throughout the activity.

Viewing Your Heart Rate Variability Stress Score

Before you can perform the heart rate variability (HRV) stress

test, you must put on a Garmin chest heart rate monitor and pair

it with your device (Pairing ANT+ Sensors, page 21).

Your HRV stress score is the result of a three-minute test

performed while standing still, where the Forerunner device

analyzes heart rate variability to determine your overall stress.

Training, sleep, nutrition, and general life stress all impact how

you perform. The stress score range is 1 to 100, where 1 is a

very low stress state, and 100 is a very high stress state.

Knowing your stress score can help you decide if your body is

ready for a tough training run or yoga.

TIP: Garmin recommends that you measure your stress score

before you exercise, at approximately the same time, and under

the same conditions every day. You can view previous results

on your Garmin Connect account.

1Select START > DOWN > HRV Stress > START.

2Follow the onscreen instructions.

Performance Condition

As 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. It is

approximately your real-time percentage deviation from your

baseline VO2 max. estimate.

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. Estimates,

page 13).

Viewing Your Performance Condition

This feature requires wrist-based heart rate or a compatible

chest heart rate monitor.

1Add Perform. Cond. to a data screen (Customizing the Data

Screens, page 22).

2Go for a run or ride.

After 6 to 20 minutes, your performance condition appears.

3Scroll to the data screen to view your performance condition

throughout the run or ride.

Lactate Threshold

Lactate threshold is the exercise intensity at which lactate (lactic

acid) starts to accumulate in the bloodstream. 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 7).

Performing a Guided Test to Determine Your Lactate

Threshold

This 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 21). You must also have a VO2 max. estimate from a

previous run (About VO2 Max. Estimates, page 13).

The device uses your user profile information from the initial

setup and your VO2 max. estimate to estimate your lactate

threshold. The device will automatically detect your lactate

threshold during runs at a steady, high intensity with heart rate.

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. If you are having trouble getting a lactate

threshold estimate, try manually lowering your maximum heart

rate value.

1From the watch face, select START.

2Select an outdoor running activity.

GPS is required to complete the test.

3Hold .

4Select Training > Lactate Threshold.

5Start the timer, and follow the on-screen instructions.

After you begin your run, the device displays each step

duration, the target, and current heart rate data. A message

appears when the test is complete.

6After you complete the guided test, stop the timer and save

the activity.

If this is your first lactate threshold estimate, the device

prompts you to update your heart rate zones based on your

lactate threshold heart rate. For each additional lactate

14 Heart Rate Features

threshold estimate, the device prompts you to accept or

decline the estimate.

Getting Your FTP Estimate

Before you can get your functional threshold power (FTP)

estimate, you must pair a chest heart rate monitor and power

meter with your device (Pairing ANT+ Sensors, page 21), and

you must get your VO2 max. estimate (About VO2 Max.

Estimates, page 13).

The device uses your user profile information from the initial

setup and your VO2 max. estimate to estimate your FTP. The

device will automatically detect your FTP during rides at a

steady, high intensity with heart rate and power.
