When creating a custom workout, the two options "Rest" and "Recovery" appear to function the same way. Am I doing something incorrectly?
In the below workouts I expected a "Rest" period to simply be a countdown timer and not record any metrics and a "Recovery" period to record as normal (active recovery). What I found is they both functioned the same way. Is there a way to achieve what I am trying to achieve?
Here is my workout:
Run 800m
Recovery 400m
Run 800m
Recovery 400m
Run 800m
Rest 5:00min <-- Ideally this would be be a "dead" countdown timer.
Repeat
When doing intervals as per below I'd prefer that the Rest period didn't affect the average pace etc. and simply functioned as a countdown timer.
Run 200m
Rest 30sec
Run 200m
Rest 30sec
Run 200m
Rest 30sec
Run 200m
Rest 4:00min
Repeat
Anyone have any luck with getting this to work? It seems odd that the two different options appear to function the same way.
