I've just finished my road bike ride, looked at the stats and I can see

10 mins? amazing....

My ride was quite intense, but how does it compare to time HR Zones ?

I'd say 16 mins above 90%HRmax is quite intense, and 42 mins in 80-90%HRmax range as well.....

    I’m having the same problem. I use the HRM Pro with an Epix Pro (Gen 2). I have my Intensity Minutes set to my specific HR Zones so its clear what I should be getting but I’m getting fictitious Vigorous Minutes and the moderate ones don’t add up.

    I’ve contacted Support who’ve taken my Garmin Folder & have access to my account for further escalation, That was 2 weeks ago. Contacted them again 2 days ago and they asked for screenshots & access to my account again! Basically they’ve not done anything and now they’ve gone silent!!

    I’ve been playing around with different set ups and done some runs without my chest strap, and although not perfect, the minutes are more accurate, so I think its something to do with the HRM calculating the minutes wrong, and although the watch should have priority and calculate the minutes, the HRM is clashing with it.

    I’ve emailed support again, see how long they ignore me for!!

    and on some older rides, from previous months and year as well....
