The Cooper Institute. For more information, see the appendix
(VO2 Max. Standard Ratings), and go to

Tips for Cycling VO2 Max. Estimates
The success and accuracy of the VO2 max. calculation
improves when your ride is a sustained and moderately hard
effort, and where heart rate and power are not highly variable.
Before your ride, check that your Forerunner device, heart
rate monitor, and power meter are functioning properly,
paired, and have good battery life.
During your 20 minute ride, maintain your heart rate at
greater than 70% of your maximum heart rate.
During your 20 minute ride, maintain a fairly constant power
output.
Avoid rolling terrain.
Avoid riding in groups where there is a lot of drafting.
Recovery Advisor
You can use your Garmin device paired with the heart rate
monitor to display how much time remains before you are fully
recovered and ready for the next hard workout. The recovery
advisor feature includes recovery time and recovery check.
Recovery advisor technology is provided and supported by
Firstbeat Technologies Ltd.
Recovery check: The recovery check provides a real-time
indication of your state of recovery within the first several
minutes of an activity.
Recovery time: The recovery time appears immediately
following an activity. The time counts down until it is optimal
for you to attempt another hard workout.
Turning On the Recovery Advisor
Before you can use the recovery advisor feature, you must put
on the heart rate monitor and pair it with your device (Pairing
Your ANT+ Sensors). If your Forerunner was packaged with a
heart rate monitor, the devices are already paired. For the most
accurate estimate, complete the user profile setup (Setting Up
Your User Profile), and set your maximum heart rate (Setting
Your Heart Rate Zones).
1
Select > My Stats > Recovery Advisor > Status > On.
2
Go for a run.
Within the first several minutes of your run, a recovery check
appears, showing your real-time state of recovery.
3
After your run, select Save.
The recovery time appears. The maximum time is 4 days,
and the minimum time is 6 hours.
Setting Your Heart Rate Zones
The device uses your user profile information from the initial
setup to determine your default heart rate zones. The device
has separate heart rate zones for running and cycling. For the
most accurate calorie data during your activity, set your
maximum heart rate. You can also set each heart rate zone and
enter your resting heart rate manually. You can manually adjust
your zones on the device or using your Garmin Connect
account.
1
Select > My Stats > User Profile > Heart Rate Zones.
2
Select Default to view the default values (optional).
The default values can be applied to running and cycling.
3
Select Running or Cycling.
4
Select Preference > Set Custom > Based On.
5
Select an option:
Select BPM to view and edit the zones in beats per
minute.
Select %Max. HR to view and edit the zones as a
percentage of your maximum heart rate.
Select %HRR to view and edit the zones as a percentage
of your heart rate reserve (maximum heart rate minus
resting heart rate).
6
Select Max. HR, and enter your maximum heart rate.
7
Select a zone, and enter a value for each zone.
8
Select Resting HR, and enter your resting heart rate.
About Heart Rate Zones
Many athletes use heart rate zones to measure and increase
their cardiovascular strength and improve their level of fitness. A
heart rate zone is a set range of heartbeats per minute. The five
commonly accepted heart rate zones are numbered from 1 to 5
according to increasing intensity. Generally, heart rate zones
are calculated based on percentages of your maximum heart
rate.
Fitness Goals
Knowing your heart rate zones can help you measure and
improve your fitness by understanding and applying these
principles.
Your heart rate is a good measure of exercise intensity.
Training in certain heart rate zones can help you improve
cardiovascular capacity and strength.
Knowing your heart rate zones can prevent you from
overtraining and can decrease your risk of injury.
If you know your maximum heart rate, you can use the table
(Heart Rate Zone Calculations) to determine the best heart rate
zone for your fitness objectives.
If you do not know your maximum heart rate, use one of the
calculators available on the Internet. Some gyms and health
centers can provide a test that measures maximum heart rate.
The default maximum heart rate is 220 minus your age.
Pairing Your ANT+ Sensors
Before you can pair, you must put on the heart rate monitor or
install the sensor.
Pairing is the connecting of ANT+ wireless sensors, for
example, connecting a heart rate monitor with your Garmin
device.
1
Bring the device within range (3 m) of the sensor.
NOTE: Stay 10 m away from other ANT+ sensors while
pairing.
2
Select > Settings > Sensors and Accessories > Add
New.
3
Select a sensor.
