About recovery heart rate
Heart rate recovery provides an indicator of fitness and training
level. As you become more fit, your heart rate should return more
quickly to a lower heart rate value at the end of your workout,
indicating a higher level of cardiovascular fitness.
A slower recovery rate might also indicate a need to take a
break from training due to fatigue, illness, or other factors.
Your recovery rate represents the change in your heart rate over a
period of time. Your Digital Heart Rate Monitor records the change
in your heart rate for any of five preset periods. To set the recovery
timer duration:
1. Press MODE until RECVRY appears.
2. Press STOP/RESET/SET to clear the last thorough heart rate
recovery reading, if necessary.
3. Press STOP/RESET/SET to toggle a 30-second, one-, two-, five-, or
ten-minute recovery time, or to turn the timer OFF.
While running the chronograph, the recovery heart rate timer will
begin automatically after pressing STOP/RESET/SET if the watch is
receiving data from the Digital Heart Rate Sensor, and the recovery
timer is set for a time duration.
NoTE: The watch cannot record a recovery unless it is receiving a
current heart rate and a valid pulse from the Digital Heart Rate
