Tips for Cycling VO2 Max. Estimates
The success and accuracy of the VO2 max. calculation improves when your ride is a sustained and moderately
hard effort, and where heart rate and power are not highly variable.
• Before your ride, check that your device, heart rate monitor, and power meter are functioning properly, paired,
and have good battery life.
• During your 20 minute ride, maintain your heart rate at greater than 70% of your maximum heart rate.
• During your 20 minute ride, maintain a fairly constant power output.
• Avoid rolling terrain.
• Avoid riding in groups where there is a lot of drafting.

Heat and Altitude Performance Acclimation
Environmental factors such as high temperature and altitude impact your training and performance. For
example, high altitude training can have a positive impact on your fitness, but you may notice a temporary VO2
max. decline while exposed to high altitudes. Your Edge 830 device provides acclimation notifications and
corrections to your VO2 max. estimate and training status when the temperature is above 22ºC (72ºF) and when
the altitude is above 800 m (2625 ft.). You can keep track of your heat and altitude acclimation in the training
status widget.
NOTE: The heat acclimation feature is available only for GPS activities and requires weather data from your
connected smartphone.
