Feature request-Time in HR zones

Could Connect and Training centre (Mac version) please have a facility to show the time spent in HR zones during a workout?
It is a fairly basic (and important) piece of data to anyone training in HR zones.

    I'm bumping this thread, as it's been THREE YEARS since this feature - the most basic and essential analysis tool for any vaguely serious athlete - was first requested.

    Once again: Average HR is meaningless. We need time spent in zone if we're to gain any practical insights from training data.

    Please, someone from Garmin, at least acknowledge that this is a missing feature and you're working on it. Garmin Connect is crippled without it.

    Anyone?

    Indeed. Avg HR gives a hint of how hard the workout was - but not much more.

    Also time in power zones is needed for cycling. And maybe pace zones for running?

    While garmin probably holds a market share for GPS devices in general and that means the voice of the customer means little, a competitor, by the name of Polar, has many features to analyze collected data that garmin seems only to dream about. Athletes want to analyze heart rate data by time spent in HR zones and if garmin cannot give this to me then I will make the switch back to Polar. Sorry, but three years to deliver a simple feature is much too long.

    I feel like this feature request forum is just for looks. But this feature would totally be nice. Polar and Suunto have it!

    Hi, I'm new to Garmin and have just realized that it's not possible to see how much time I spent in each heart rate zone. Am I missing something? This seems like a pretty basic essential feature and something that I used for every single training session with my Polar watch previously.
    Can someone let me know if this feature is hidden somewhere, and if it doesn't exist could Garmin please add it to the training center functions? It seems like people have been asking for it for 4 years now. Does anybody look at this thread?
    Thanks
  • It is there in Training Centre which is the old PC based program which you can still download - but it is not present in Connect - Training Centre can still be downloaded and also lets you set up some workouts that you can't create in Connect :)

    yes.

    This would be a GREAT feature to have as Display Unit on the device. Very useful to have Time Spent in Zone X (1/2/3/4/5).

    PLEASE!
