Power Guide
You can create and use a power strategy to plan your effort on a course. Your Edge device uses your FTP, the
course elevation, and the projected time it will take you to complete the course to create a customized power
guide.
One of the most important steps in planning a successful power guide strategy is choosing your effort level.
Putting a harder effort into the course will increase the power recommendations, while choosing an easier effort
will reduce them (Creating a Power Guide, page7). The primary goal of a power guide is to help you complete
the course based on what is known about your ability, not to achieve a specific target time. You can adjust the
effort level during your ride.
Power guides are always associated with a course and cannot be used with workouts or segments. You can
view and edit your strategy in Garmin Connect and sync it with compatible Garmin devices. This feature requires
a power meter, which must be paired with your device (Pairing Your Wireless Sensors, page48). After the
devices are paired, you can customize the optional data fields (Data Fields, page79).
