Training Status
These measurements are estimates that can help you track and
understand your training activities. 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 garmin.com/performance-data/running.
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 environemnts 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.
Training Status Levels
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.
Tips for Getting Your Training Status
The training status feature depends on updated assessments of
your fitness level, including at least two VO2 max.
measurements per week. Your VO2 max. estimate is updated
after outdoor runs or rides with power during which your heart
rate reached at least 70% of your maximum heart rate for
several minutes. The trail run and indoor run activities do not
generate a VO2 max. estimate in order to preserve the accuracy
of your fitness level trend.
To get the most out of the training status feature, you can try
these tips.
• At least two times per week, run or ride outdoors with a
power meter, and reach a heart rate higher than 70% of your
maximum heart rate for at least 10 minutes.
After using the device for one week, your training status
should be available.
• Record all of your fitness activities on this device, or enable
the Physio TrueUp feature, allowing your device to learn
about your performance (Syncing Activities and Performance
Measurements, page 15).
Heat and Altitude Performance Acclimation
Environmental factors such as high temperature and altitude
impact your training and performance. For example, high
altitude training can have a positive impact on your fitness, but
you may notice a temporary VO2 max. decline while exposed to
high altitudes. Your fēnix device provides acclimation
notifications and corrections to your VO2 max. estimate and
training status when the temperature is above 22ºC (72ºF) and
when the altitude is above 800 m (2625 ft.). You can keep track
of your heat and altitude acclimation in the training status
widget.
NOTE: The heat acclimation feature is available only for GPS
activities and requires weather data from your connected
smartphone. Full acclimation takes a minimum of 4 training
days.
Training Load
Training load is a measurement of your training volume over the
last seven days. It is the sum of your excess post-exercise
oxygen consumption (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.
