Setting Your Fitness User Profile

profile information: gender, age, weight, height, and lifetime
athlete (About Lifetime Athletes, page 12).

About Lifetime Athletes
A lifetime athlete is an individual who has trained intensely for
many years (with the exception of minor injuries) and has a
resting heart rate of 60 beats per minute (bpm) or less.
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, page 12) 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.
Setting Your Heart Rate Zones
Before the device can determine your heart rate zones, you
must set up your fitness user profile (Setting Your Fitness User
Profile, page 12).
You can manually adjust the heart rate zones according to your
fitness goals (Fitness Goals, page 12).
1
Select Setup > Fitness > HR Zones.
2
Enter the maximum and minimum heart rate for zone 5.
The maximum heart rate for each zone is based on the
minimum heart rate of the previous zone. For example, if you
enter 167 as a minimum heart rate for zone 5, the device
uses 166 as the maximum rate for zone 4.
3
Enter your minimum heart rate for zones 4-1.
