Strain and Tolerance

In addition to the Cardio load from individual training sessions, the new Training Load Pro feature measures your short
term Cardio load (Strain) and long term Cardio load (Tolerance).
Strain shows you how much you have strained yourself with training lately. It shows your average daily load from the past
7 days.
Tolerance describes how prepared you are to endure cardio training. It shows your average daily load from the past 28
days. To improve your tolerance for cardio training, you need to slowly increase your training over a longer period of time.

Cardio Load Status

Cardio load status looks at the relation between your
in a detraining, maintaining, productive or overreaching Cardio load status. You will also get personalized feedback based
on your status.
Cardio load status guides you in evaluating the impact your training has on your body and how it affects your progress.
Knowing how your past training affects your performance today allows you to keep your total training volume in control
and optimize the timing of training at different intensities. Seeing how your training status changes after a session helps
you understand how much load was caused by the session.
