that interval. For example if INT 3 is set to 00:00:00 then the watch
will move from INT 2 directly to INT 4.
When you set target heart rate zones in Interval Mode, they override
those set in HRM Setup Mode. For example, if you have set the watch
to ZONE 2 in HRM Setup Mode but set INT 3 to ZONE 3, the watch will
record heart rate data for ZONE 3 and not ZONE 2 while in Interval
Mode. This is particularly important if you set the watch to alert you if
you go above or below your target heart rate zone.
The repeat setting applies to the entire group of settings; you cannot
have the Interval Timer repeat twice for INT 1 and only once for INT 2.
For cross training purposes, you decide to add a one-hour spin session to your
workout routine. You decide to use Interval Mode to help you track both time and
heart rate for your workout. You set the following intervals for your workout:
You use INT 1 as a warmup. INT 2 and INT 3 represent the core of your workout
at an increasing heart rate goal, striving for 5 minutes of high intensity aerobic
workout. Finally, INT 4 is a cool down between repetitions and at the end of the
workout. In addition, you set the repetitions to 2, which allows you to repeat this
workout sequence twice for a strong one-hour interval workout routine.
