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.
Viewing Your Predicted Race Times
For the most accurate estimate, complete the user profile setup (
Setting Up Your User Profile, page 50
), and
set your maximum heart rate (
Setting Your Heart Rate Zones, page 51
).
Your device uses the VO2 max. estimate (
About VO2 Max. Estimates, page 44
) and published data sources to
provide a target race time based on your current state of fitness. This projection also presumes you have
completed the proper training for the race.
NOTE: The projections may seem inaccurate at first. The device requires a few runs to learn about your running
performance.
