Heart Rate Zone Distribution

Heart Rate Zone Distribution

Heart Rate Zone Distribution v0.5.1




This data field shows the heart rate zone distribution. The bar colors change dynamically during the activity depending on how much time is spent in each heart rate zone.

When the heart rate is in zone 4 and 5, the text color changes to orange and red respectively to make it easier to spot the high heart rate by just glancing at the watch.
To aid when doing intervals, when the heart rate has been above the defined threshold, and drops back below another defined threshold, the text color turns green to show you are recovered and ready for the next interval.

The data field is only functional in layouts where the field has sufficient width and height. If the field is too small, the text 'N/A' (Not Applicable) is shown.

This version has hard coded threshold values, so in it's current form it should be regarded as a 'proof of concept'.

When user configuration is made possible (probably in September), or when it is possible to read HR Zones from the watch, I will release an updated version where the heart rate zones can be customized.

In this version the zone values are:

• Zone 1: 0 - 132 BPM
  
• Zone 2: 132 - 146 BPM
  
• Zone 3: 146 - 153 BPM
  
• Zone 4: 153 - 163 BPM
  
• Zone 5: 163 - 194 BPM
  
• Recovery OK: Heart rate below 120 BPM after it has been in the yellow or red zone
  

If anyone is interested in beta testing, I can compile a special version with your personal threshold values. Just send me a PM with details, or post in this thread :)
