About Lifetime Athletes A lifetime athlete is an individual who has trained intensely for many years (with the exception of minor injuries) and has a resting heart rate of 60 beats per minute (bpm) or less. Setting Your Power Zones The values for the zones are default values and may not match your personal abilities. If you know your functional threshold power (FTP) value, you can enter it and allow the software to calculate your power zones automatically. You can manually adjust your zones on the device or using your Garmin Connect account. 1 Hold UP. 2 Select Fitness > My Stats > User Profile > Power Zones > Based On. 3 Select an option: • Select Watts to view and edit the zones in watts. • Select % FTP to view and edit the zones as a percentage of your functional threshold power. 4 Select FTP, and enter your FTP value. 5 Select a zone, and enter a value for each zone. 6 If necessary, select Minimum, and enter a minimum power value. Activity Tracking Turning On Activity Tracking The activity tracking feature records your daily step count, step goal, distance traveled, and calories burned for each recorded day. Your calories burned includes your base metabolism plus activity calories. Activity tracking can be enabled during the initial device setup, or at any time. NOTE: Turning on activity tracking can decrease the battery life between charges. 1 Hold UP. 2 Select Settings > Activity Tracking > Status > On. Your step count does not appear until the device locates satellites and sets the time automatically. The device may need a clear view of the sky to locate satellite signals. The number of steps taken during the day appears on the activity tracking widget. The step count is updated periodically. Using the Move Alert Before you can use the move alert, you must turn on activity tracking. Sitting for prolonged periods of time can trigger undesirable metabolic state changes. The move alert reminds you to keep moving. After one hour of inactivity, Move! and the red bar appear. The device also beeps or vibrates if audible tones are turned on (System Settings, page 16). Go for a short walk (at least a couple of minutes) to reset the move alert. Auto Goal Your device creates a daily step goal automatically, based on your previous activity levels. As you move during the day, the device shows your progress toward your daily goal . À If you choose not to use the auto goal feature, you can set a personalized step goal on your Garmin Connect account. Sleep Tracking During sleep mode, the device monitors your rest. Sleep statistics include total hours of sleep, periods of movement, and periods of restful sleep. Using Sleep Mode Before you can use sleep tracking, you must be wearing the device. 1 From the watch face, select UP or DOWN to view the activity tracking widget. 2 Select START > Yes. 3 When you wake, select STOP > Yes to exit sleep mode. NOTE: If you forget to put the device into sleep mode, you can enter your sleep and wake times manually into your Garmin Connect account to view your sleep statistics.
