Error in zones ?

StephanK. over 3 years ago

Am i the only one to have issues with zones ?

while cycling today and running too, i found out that at 130bpm it is setting me to the maximum HR

at the same time i checked the zone on the watch and on the app and it seems to be OK

Hi, yes, similar issue on my side. Yesterday new max HR was detected and although I have zones set by %LTH this "zones misalignment" occured.

OK !

but it dosnt seems to be a problem in the training effect evaluation... should it have an impact in trainging status and so on ?

Hard to judge but I'd guess that yes. After finishing activity also in garmin connect time spent in wrong zones is present and effectivitiy of training also corresponds to wrong zones.

I‘ve the same problem. Individual HZ zones are possible, but the device ignore them. That‘s ***. So the 955 solar is trash. Please Garmin: Fix that bugs asap!!!

After each run, even easy one, I get "max hr detected" alert at ca. 185bpm. Which is much over my actual value (180bpm) and the value stated in the activity summary.

Zones are a mess to be honest...

I now removed the sports specific zones and disabled automatic max hr detection (which does some algorithm calculation crap instead of actually using the measured hr).

You can't change the sports specific zones, they just use the general zones even thouogh it seems like they are editable.

However I just noticed it's even crappier. Did a lactate test (using the specific training lactate guided treshold test) which detected a new treshold for me. But that didn't actually got used by the watch, so I entered it manually in the general settings but of course this was NOT used by the sports specific section which still used the old treshold.

Really, the watch has so many issues... I still do really like it, but it's frustrating as hell as well

Had a big fail this weekend on an ironman race...

my detected swim was 990m despite all multi gps and so on :) Noticed anything like that?

Ah, ahd to look twice... no clue (I don't swim ;) ).

Did you edit the distance yourself manually? As it says 1900m in the overview and the summary stats
