TRAINING
Using Heart Rate Alerts
NOTE: Heart rate alerts are a feature
of the Edge 305 only.
Similar to speed alerts, the heart
rate alert notifies you if your heart
rate exceeds or drops below
a specific number of beats per
minute (bpm).
Heart rate alerts can also notify
you if your heart rate exceeds
or drops below a certain heart
rate zone—a range of beats
per minute. The five commonly
accepted heart rate zones can
help you determine the intensity
of your workout. For more about
setting your heart rate zones, see
page 60. For more information
about training with heart rate
zones, see page 70.
To set a heart rate alert:
1. Press
mode to access the
Main Menu. Select Training.
2. Select Alerts > HR Alert.
3. In the Min HR Alert field,
select a zone from the menu
or select Custom to specify
your own alert value.
4. Repeat for the Max HR Alert.
The maximum value allowed
is 235 bpm.
