4 Select LTHR, and enter your lactate threshold heart rate. You can perform a guided test to estimate your lactate threshold (Lactate Threshold, page 44). You can use the Auto Detection feature to automatically record your lactate threshold during an activity (Detecting Performance Measurements Automatically, page 69). 5 Select Resting HR > Set Custom, and enter your resting heart rate. You can use the average resting heart rate measured by your watch, or you can set a custom resting heart rate. 6 Select Zones > Based On. 7 Select an option: • Select %Max. HR to view and edit the zones as a percentage of your maximum heart rate. • Select %HRR to view and edit the zones as a percentage of your heart rate reserve (maximum heart rate minus resting heart rate). • Select %LTHR to view and edit the zones as a percentage of your lactate threshold heart rate. 8 Select a zone, and enter a value for each zone. 9 Select Sport Heart Rate, and select a sport profile to add separate heart rate zones (optional). 10 Repeat the steps to add sport heart rate zones (optional). Letting the Watch Set Your Heart Rate Zones The default settings allow the watch to detect your maximum heart rate and set your heart rate zones as a percentage of your maximum heart rate. • Verify that your user profile settings are accurate (Setting Up Your User Profile, page 68). • Run often with the wrist or chest heart rate monitor. • Try a few heart rate training plans, available from your Garmin Connect account. • View your heart rate trends and time in zones using your Garmin Connect account.
