Remember, these alerts are based on a calculation of your

you are working too hard, most likely you are. Adjust the HR
zone to one that works for you.

HEART RATE zONES AND ExERCiSE
Heart rate is an indicator of the intensity of the exercise on
your body. It is a useful tool for determining how effective
a work-out is.
This watch uses an estimation of your maximum heart rate
(220 - age = MHR) to arrive at 5 HR zone settings specific
to you.
