Putting On the Heart Rate Monitor
You should wear the heart rate monitor directly on your skin, just
below your sternum.
1
Select a strap extender for the best fit.
2
Wear the heart rate monitor with the Garmin logo facing right-
side up.
The hook and loop connection should be on your right
side.
3
Wrap the heart rate monitor around your chest, and connect
the strap hook to the loop.
NOTE: Make sure the care tag does not fold over.
4
Tighten the heart rate monitor so it is snug around your
chest, but not restrictive.
After you put on the heart rate monitor, it is active, storing, and
sending data.
Tips for Using the HRM-Swim Accessory
Adjust the tightness of the heart rate monitor and strap
extender if the heart rate monitor slides down your chest
when pushing off the pool wall.
Stand up between intervals so that the heart rate monitor is
out of the water to see your heart rate data.
Running Dynamics
You can use your compatible Forerunner device paired with the
HRM-Pro accessory or other running dynamics accessory to
provide real-time feedback about your running form.
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).
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 an
HRM-Pro, HRM-Run
, or HRM-Tri accessory, or the Running
Dynamics Pod, and pair it with your device (Pairing Your
Wireless Sensors, page 29).
1
Select START, and select a running activity.
2
Select START.
3
Go for a run.
4
Scroll to the running dynamics screens to view your metrics.
5
If necessary, hold UP to edit how the running dynamics data
appears.
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/performance-data/running/ for more information on running dynamics. For additional theories and
interpretations of running dynamics data, you can search reputable running publications and websites.

Blue 70–95 174–183 spm 218–248 ms
