Training Status
Training status shows you how your training affects your fitness level and performance. Your training status is
based on changes to your training load and VO2 max. over an extended time period. You can use your training
status to help plan future training and continue improving your fitness level.
Peaking: Peaking means that you are in ideal race condition. Your recently reduced training load is allowing your
body to recover and fully compensate for earlier training. You should plan ahead, since this peak state can
only be maintained for a short time.
Productive: Your current training load is moving your fitness level and performance in the right direction. You
should plan recovery periods into your training to maintain your fitness level.
Maintaining: Your current training load is enough to maintain your fitness level. To see improvement, try adding
more variety to your workouts or increasing your training volume.
Recovery: Your lighter training load is allowing your body to recover, which is essential during extended periods
of hard training. You can return to a higher training load when you feel ready.
Unproductive: Your training load is at a good level, but your fitness is decreasing. Your body may be struggling
to recover, so you should pay attention to your overall health including stress, nutrition, and rest.
Detraining: Detraining occurs when you are training much less than usual for a week or more, and it is affecting
your fitness level. You can try increasing your training load to see improvement.
Overreaching: Your training load is very high and counterproductive. Your body needs a rest. You should give
yourself time to recover by adding lighter training to your schedule.
No Status: The device needs one or two weeks of training history, including activities with VO2 max. results
from running or cycling, to determine your training status.

About VO2 Max. Estimates
VO2 max. is the maximum volume of oxygen (in milliliters) you can consume per minute per kilogram of body
weight at your maximum performance. In simple terms, VO2 max. is an indication of athletic performance and
should increase as your level of fitness improves. VO2 max. estimates are provided and supported by Firstbeat.
You can use your Garmin device paired with a compatible heart rate monitor and power meter to display your
cycling VO2 max. estimate.
