Your watch alerts you when you hit your selected target zone. During your exercise the watch
will prompt you to speed up or slow down, if your heart rate is outside the selected target

In addition, there is a dedicated display for HR zones in the sport mode default display. The
zone display shows your current HR zone in the middle field and the background color of the
gauge also indicates which HR zone you are training in.
In the exercise summary, you get a breakdown of how much time you have spent in each
zone.
