Training with Morpheus:  

 

A.

 

Personalized Daily Heart Rate Zones 

 

Before you exercise on any given day, you can view your personalized 

heart rate zones for that day.  These zones are dynamic and are adjusted 

each day based on your recovery score. 

 

To view your zones, from the 

Track

 screen click on the 

Train

 quadrant 

and then click on 

Zones

.   

 

Your zones will appear and show you the heart rate range for each of 

them. 
 

As you can see, 

Blue is the Recovery Zone

Green is the 

Conditioning

 Zone

, and 

Red is the Overload Zone

 

Your daily recovery score will dictate your daily heart rate zones. 

 

The lower your recovery score, the lower your 3 heart rate zones will be for 

that day.   

 

 

 

 
 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 
 

 

 

 

 

These zones will be set on your M5 after your recovery test has been completed.  You will know that the zones 

have been set by the screen shown below that will appear on the M5.
