How do you know how well you are performing in your current exercise session compared to your previous sessions?
Garmin provide their answer with the Garmin Performance Condition score. The Garmin Performance Condition provides an indication of how well your body is performing in its current exercise session compared to your historically stored data.
Whether you're running or cycling, the performance condition will provide you with a score on how well you are tracking.
But how does Garmin actually calculate this score?
Enter this video!
In this video, Rob goes through how the Garmin Performance Condition score is determined, including the key variables of pace, heart rate and heart rate variability. Rob then goes through how these variables impact upon your Garmin Performance Condition score and why VO2 max is used as the reference on the scoring scale for the performance condition.
The performance condition score can give you some good feedback on how your body is handling your exercise program (including any improvements in VO2 max) and where you may need to change up your running, cycling or swimming sessions to maintain or improve your fitness status.
