Vigorous intensity minutes heart rate zone

RuudB over 1 year ago

Hi all;

Does anyone know how intensity minutes are counted when:

Moderate Intensity setting = Zone 2
Vigorous Intensity setting = Zone 4
My heart rate is in zone 3

Of course 'Use Heart Rate Zones' is switched on.

Kind regards,

Ruud

Your settings would dictate Moderate Intensity for >10 minutes continuously in Zone 2 and Zone 3, and Vigorous Intensity for >10 minutes continuously in Zone 4 and Zone 5.

If your HR is continuously in Zone 3, and greater than 10 minutes without dipping (even for an instant) below Zone 2, then your Intensity Minutes would be counted as Moderate.
