Training Status
These measurements are estimates that can help you track and understand your training activities. The
measurements require you to complete activities for two weeks using wrist-based heart rate or a compatible
chest heart rate monitor. Cycling performance measurements require a heart rate monitor and a power meter.
The measurements may seem inaccurate at first when the watch is still learning about your performance.
These estimates are provided and supported by Firstbeat Analytics. For more information, go to
Training status: Training status shows you how your training affects your fitness and performance. Your
training status is based on changes to your VO2 max., acute load, and HRV status 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 (
About VO2 Max. Estimates, page 57
). Your watch displays
heat and altitude corrected VO2 max. values when you are acclimating to high heat environments or high
altitude (
Heat and Altitude Performance Acclimation, page 68
).
HRV: HRV is your heart rate variability status over the last seven days (
Heart Rate Variability Status, page 59
).
Acute load: Acute load is a weighted sum of your recent exercise load scores including exercise duration and
intensity. (
).
Training load focus: Your watch 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 watch 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 (
).
