Start Training with OwnZone
Starting every session with OwnZone
determination guarantees safe, effective and
individual heart rate zones.
Check your OwnZone at least:
when you change training environment or sport.
when you train after more than a week’s break.
if you have not recovered from previous
session/you are not feeling well/are stressed.
after changing your user information.
OwnZone determination takes only five minutes,
and can be performed as a warm-up in any sport.
If training program is activated and you actively
use this determination, FT80 incorporates your
long-term results when updating program targets.
