About Training Effect

Training Effect measures the impact of an activity on your
aerobic fitness. Training Effect accumulates during the activity.
As the activity progresses, the training effect value increases,
telling you how the activity has improved your fitness. Training
Effect is determined by your user profile information, heart rate,
duration, and intensity of your activity.
It is important to know that your Training Effect numbers (from
1.0 to 5.0) may seem abnormally high during your first few runs.
It takes several activities for the device to learn your aerobic
fitness.
Training Effect Description
From 1.0 to 1.9 Helps recovery (short activities). Improves endurance
with longer activities (longer than 40 min.).
From 2.0 to 2.9 Maintains your aerobic fitness.
From 3.0 to 3.9 Improves your aerobic fitness if repeated as part of
your weekly training program.
From 4.0 to 4.9 Highly improves your aerobic fitness if repeated one
or two times per week with adequate recovery time.
5.0
Causes temporary overload with high improvement.
Train up to this number with extreme care. Requires
additional recovery days.
Training effect technology is provided and supported by
Firstbeat Technologies Ltd. For more information, go to
