VO2 Max calculations - Forerunner 920 XT - Running which a Back Pack

I often run with 4 to 6 kgs in my back pack when returning from the office.

The extra weight does indeed affect the HR / speed significantly. The resulting VO2 max calculations provided by my device are therefore incorrect.

Does Garmin have a plan to address that issue ?

Thanks

You could change the weight in the user profile on the watch and add those kgs before running with your backpack. Then the watch might calculate VO2max correctly. VO2max is calculated on the device and not on the web site.
