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.

Getting Your VO2 Max. Estimate

Before you can view your VO2 max. estimate, you must put on

the heart rate monitor, install the power meter, and pair them

with your device (Pairing Your ANT+ Sensors, page 12). If your

device was packaged with a heart rate monitor, the device and

sensor are already paired. For the most accurate estimate,

complete the user profile setup (Setting Up Your User Profile,

10 ANT+ Sensors

page 15), and set your maximum heart rate (Setting Your Heart

Rate Zones, page 11).

VO2 max. data and analysis is provided with permission from

The Cooper Institute

. For more information, see the

appendix (VO2 Max. Standard Ratings, page 22), and go to

www.CooperInstitute.org.

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.

Setting Your Heart Rate Zones

The device uses your user profile information from the initial

setup to determine your heart rate zones. You can manually

adjust the heart rate zones according to your fitness goals

(Fitness Goals, page 11). For the most accurate calorie data

during your activity, you should set your maximum heart rate,

resting heart rate, and heart rate zones.

Select Menu > My Stats > Training Zones > Heart Rate

Zones.

Enter your maximum and resting heart rate values.

The zone values update automatically, but you can also edit

each value manually.

Select Based On:.

Select an option:

• Select BPM to view and edit the zones in beats per

minute.

• Select % Max. to view and edit the zones as a percentage

of your maximum heart rate.

• Select % HRR to view and edit the zones as a percentage

of your resting heart rate.

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.

Fitness Goals

Knowing your heart rate zones can help you measure and

improve your fitness by understanding and applying these

principles.

• Your heart rate is a good measure of exercise intensity.

• Training in certain heart rate zones can help you improve

cardiovascular capacity and strength.

If you know your maximum heart rate, you can use the table

(Heart Rate Zone Calculations, page 22) to determine the best

heart rate zone for your fitness objectives.

If you do not know your maximum heart rate, use one of the

calculators available on the Internet. Some gyms and health

centers can provide a test that measures maximum heart rate.

The default maximum heart rate is 220 minus your age.

Tips for Erratic Heart Rate Data

If the heart rate data is erratic or does not appear, you can try

these tips.

• Reapply water to the electrodes and contact patches (if

applicable).

• Tighten the strap on your chest.

• Warm up for 5 to 10 minutes.

• Follow the care instructions (Caring for the Heart Rate

Monitor, page 18).

• Wear a cotton shirt or thoroughly wet both sides of the strap.

Synthetic fabrics that rub or flap against the heart rate

monitor can create static electricity that interferes with heart

rate signals.

• Move away from sources that can interfere with your heart

rate monitor.

Sources of interference may include strong electromagnetic

fields, some 2.4 GHz wireless sensors, high-voltage power

lines, electric motors, ovens, microwave ovens, 2.4 GHz

cordless phones, and wireless LAN access points.
