I’ve had my watch about 6 weeks now and I’ve just started to try to recommend workouts to see if they make any difference.

Just wondering if people use the suggested workouts or whether they’re just a bit rubbish? How do I know if the suggestions are accurate for what I need?

    I don’t really use the Garmin recommendations, but a friend helped me get slightly better recommendations.

    By default, Garmin creates HR zones based on % of max HR. Set this way, it was suggesting that I do most runs at a brisk walk.

    In the User Settings of the device, you can define your HR zones by % of Heart Rate Reserve instead. I still don’t really use garmins recommendations, but at least now the recommendations are a more reasonable pace.
