My Stats
The Edge 530 device can track your personal statistics and
calculate performance measurements. Performance
measurements require a compatible heart rate monitor or power
meter.
Performance Measurements
These performance measurements are estimates that can help
you track and understand your training activities and race
performances. The measurements require a few activities using
wrist-based heart rate or a compatible chest heart rate monitor.
Cycling performance measurements require a heart rate monitor
and a power meter.
These estimates are provided and supported by Firstbeat. For
more information, go to www.garmin.com/performance-data.
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. Your device displays
heat and altitude corrected VO2 max. values when you are
acclimating to high heat environments or high altitude.
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.
Training load focus: Your device analyzes and distributes your
training load into different categories based on the intensity
and structure of each activity recorded. Training load focus
includes the total load accumulated per category, and the
focus of the training. Your device displays your load
distribution over the last 4 weeks.
Recovery time: The recovery time displays how much time
remains before you are fully recovered and ready for the next
hard workout.
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.
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.
Power curve: The power curve displays your sustained power
output over time. You can view your power curve for the
previous month, three months, or twelve months.
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
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.
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. VO2 max. estimates are provided and
supported by Firstbeat. You can use your Garmin device paired
