My Stats
The Edge 540 bike computer can track your personal statistics and calculate performance measurements.
Performance measurements require a compatible heart rate monitor, power meter, or smart trainer.
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 Analytics™. 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.
