Notes about the training zones

Your max. HR is calculated from your age, weight and gender in the "Settings/User" menu. The max. HR forms the basis for determining the upper and lower limits of the two training zones.
The following two training zones are available to you or you can set your own personal zone yourself.

Training zones according to max HR

(Worked out automatically by age, gender and weight factors.)

  1. FAT (Fatburner Zone): approx. 55–70% of the max. HR
    Aimed at: Training for beginners or those starting again. When training at a lower intensity and therefore for a longer period, in percentage terms more fat that carbohydrates are used to provide energy.
  2. FIT (Fitness Zone): 70–80% of the max. HR
    Aimed at: Advanced level fitness. You train much more intensively in the fitness zone. In this zone, a higher proportion of the immediately available carbohydrates are used as a source of energy. Training in this intensity strengthens the heart circulation system and basic aerobic stamina.
  3. OWN (Individual Zone):
    The ONYX CLASSIC also gives you the possibility to set your own training zone. To do this, in the "ZONE OWN" menu heading change the lower limit (LOW) and the upper limit (HIGH) using the bottom button.
