Viewing Your Fitness Age
Your fitness age gives you an idea of how your fitness compares with a person of the same gender. Your watch
uses information, such as your age, body mass index (BMI), resting heart rate data, and vigorous activity history
to provide a fitness age. If you have a Garmin Index scale, your watch uses the body fat percentage metric
instead of BMI to determine your fitness age. Exercise and lifestyle changes can impact your fitness age.
NOTE: For the most accurate fitness age, complete the user profile setup (
Setting Up Your User Profile, page 88
).

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.
