[bug] maximum heartrate was changed !

recently i had 3 activities and they had 'suspiciously' high load,

later I checked ,that mine MAX heartrate was changed and lowered by ~10bps !!! WHY ??? (and who enabled auto-detect ?, why??)

DOES THIS HAPPENS WITH EVERY UPDATE ?

I think i have to agree with some articles....

  • It has happened to me a few times, the last time was when I updated to 9.50 a few days ago. I have a max HR of 195 bpm, when it gets changed to "auto detect" it gives me a max of about 156 bpm. 

    Soon as I get round the corner from my house and labouring up a hill, I know something is wrong as I can see by my graphical display, I am in the "red zone" when it lights up red instead of the usual green or yellow. Then I have to mess about changing the settings.

    It's annoying.

  • It happened again !!!  my HRmax was lowered by 9bpm  !!!

    I HAVE A GREAT IDEA: Can we just delete `user profile` from settings ?

    and Edge can ask for max heart rate every time you start your activity,  this way you can be sure that HRm is correct ....

    My Edge in settings has Auto Detect: OFF all the time

  • Where is the automatic detection? I have only seen it in UL

  • It's in Edge settings, when you open My stats and then heart zones
